SpawnBuild

The original bukkit server has a build safe area around spawn point, but no permission to grant builders to build there (except the operators). As I don't want to install HUGE plugins for that minimal behaviour, I created a very tiny one.

This simple plugin mimics this default behaviour, but gives one permission to use with e.g. permissionBukkit.

  builder:
    permissions:
      spawnbuild: true

You can also add a permission per world.

  users:
    someone:
      permissions:
        spawnbuild.someworld: true

What is protected

Currently all blockPace and blockRemove events are forbidden plus the emptyBukket as Lava/Water appearing is also breaking the spawn area. Additional the ingiteBlock with Flint&Steel or Firecharge is not possible.

HowTo

In the original bukkit.yml you have to set

  spawn-radius: 0

So that the SpawnBuild plugin can handle the safe area.

Configuration

# Radius around SpawnPoint a mortal cannot build
spawnbuild:
  spawn-radius: 10
  allowOp: false
  allowCreative: false
Descriptiondefault value
spawnbuild.spawn-radiusdistance of safe area around spawn point10
spawnbuild.allowOpAre ops allowed to build in safe area without having the spawnbuild permissionfalse
spawnbuild.allowCreativeAre creative players allowed to build in safe area without having the spawnbuild permissionfalse

Permissions

Note

In Version 1.4.2 the spawn-radius: 0 has moved from bukkit.yml to spawn-protect in the server.properties.
Currently running a dev build of craftbukkit, to verify that it is still working as expected.
