Minecraft – How to prevent Minecraft griefing in Bukkit

minecraft-bukkitminecraft-java-edition

I know it's there somewhere, but I cannot find it. A couple of years ago I was playing on an MC server where there was a good solution to prevent griefing. The method worked in the way that if a player places a block the other players cannot destroy that block and give a red message saying that they don't have permissions.

I've installed a Bukkit server with plugins "world-edit, world-guard, PermissionsEx". I need to put the block ID in somewhere but I don't know how.

I only need help setting up the block IDs to work with the plugins. I've already chosen the plugins I want to use and don't need recommendations.

A method of mitigating griefing is keeping a history of the world. The simplest way is to regularly backup the world. However, there is an automated way to do it using LogBlock.

If you have WorldEdit installed, you can select a region and rollback a section of the world, undoing any griefing that has happened.

From your description it seems that you have done it in exactly the opposite order. (It would help if you also posted your script, though.)

When you 'inherit', it means the 'child' will inherit all of the parent's members and can also add its own. So basically what you did was, you let anybody (even default) use everything it inherited from every group all the way up to owner.
So basically what you need to do is:

define the default group
define member and set its parent (i.e. let it inherit from) default
let moderator inherit from member
and so on.

That should be it.

Edit: Yesterday at night I was pretty tired, about to go to sleep and a bit worried whether what I wrote would make any sense in the morning. Luckily it doesn't look that bad; so I'll even add an example now. :)

Make your yml file like this:

groups:
  Guest:
    default: true
    permissions:
    - modifyworld.*

  Member:
    default: false
    inheritance:
    - Guest
    permissions:
    ...etc

(I've named the default group Guest for clarity.)

Minecraft Modpacks vs MCPC+

FTB does not, as of the time of writing, support Bukkit. If you want to maintain Bukkit functionality and the ability to use plugins, you should follow SevenSidedDie's suggestion and rebuild FTB from the ground up on MCPC. You can find information on the contents of the various FTB packs here.
