🔒 Better Chestlock

A lightweight, robust, and vanilla-friendly chest protection mod for Fabric. Keep your loot secure from thieves, explosions, and hopper-siphoning without complicated land-claiming plugins.

✨ Features

• Owner Protection: Whoever crafts and places a Locked Chest becomes its sole owner. Only the owner can open or break it.
• Global Trust System: Easily grant trusted friends access to all of your chests with a single command.
• Hopper & Automation Defense: Prevents hoppers, droppers, and hopper minecarts from siphoning your items away (configurable).
• Blast Resistant: Immune to TNT, Creepers, and other explosions (configurable).
• Smart Double Chests: Chests only connect into double chests if both halves belong to the same owner—preventing unauthorized merging.
• Operator Bypass: Server admins and OPs can manage and inspect every chest (configurable).
• Clear Action-Bar Feedback: Denied interactions display clean, non-intrusive action-bar notifications.
• Chest Inspection: Use /chest info to quickly check chest ownership and permissions.
