Universe Guard - An easy to use world protection plugin for Sponge

Hi, I’m currently using Forge 2599 / Sponge API 7.1.0 and Sponge build 2842 for 1.12.2 of Minecraft. Will this mod work on these builds? Thanks -Steve

No, API7 version for MC-1.12 is still in development :confused:

Okay - thanks for the reply.

A new version has been released for Universe Guard, it is available for download here.


  • Added new command /region template. Sets a pending Region to act as a template or not. If a Region is a template it won’t appear in the Regions list and won’t handle events in it. So is like the Region itself doesn’t exist while it is. Used so you can define many Regions with the same properties by defining just a Region and then copy this using the /region copy command.

  • Fixed a bug that spams the block placed in the console

Hi,I am using the Sponge API 5.1.0,Can I use the Universe Guard 2.13?

Hi, this project has been upgraded to this one: Universe Guard 2: an easy to use world protection plugin

And it only works with API6 (not the latest releases) and API7

  • Remove messages: You can now remove the farewell and the greeting messages of a Region by using the /rg removefarewell and /rg removegreeting commands while editing a Region
  • "*" permission: You can now set the “*” permission in addition to the all permission. The result will be equivalent

Oh,it is a pity.

  • Region Selector fixed: When using the /rg command the Region Selector will no longer replace the item in your hand. Instead it will look the first available slot in your inventory, prioritizing the hotbar
  • Mob aliases: When using the mob-related flags you can now use the mob id without the mod id, for example you can now use just creeper instead of minecraft:creeper

Please add the use flag? So that people cant launch rocket launchers in my server’s spawn?

This plugin can’t protect mod items from destroying the world
If this is normal, please let us know!
If it is not normal, please fix it~

  • BETTER CODE!: Improved the liquid flow flags source code to avoid some small errors. Those errors are believed to be the cause of some bug reports, mostly the “Could not pass MoveEntityEvent”. So, having more controls on what happens on those flags should now prevent these errors to spam the server console and cause lag.
  • NEW COMMAND /rg itemuse: With this new command you can allow or disallow an item to be used inside the Region. Note that this flag is intended to work with items, like bows, enderpearls, snowballs etc… You can disallow the use of blocks and items like boats or minecarts, however since there are already specific flags for them you might have some unpredictable results, like consuming the item without actually spawning the block or the entity. The command syntax is the follow: /rg itemuse [true|false] [modid:itemid], for example /rg itemuse false minecraft:apple will disable the use of apples, meaning no one in the Region can eat them (how cruel you might be to do that?)

Why is console spamming

  • New command: /rg globalfor: This command will allow you to create global regions for custom dimensions.This has been done because some mods adds some dimensions that are not recognized by Sponge. Also it allows you to setup a new dimension without restarting the server to see if the region file for the dimension is generated automatically. Note that you should run this command BEFORE entering the new dimension, otherwise you’ll get spammed with tons of errors! So make sure you first create a global region for your new dimension before actually using it! More info on the syntax can be found on the Wiki

  • Cleaned up some logs that made into the public release for the last version.

Heyo,
Can you please add support for region-based Gamerules?

Please let me ask if this plugin is Universe Guard 2? I cannot access Universe Guard 2 on sponge’s Plugin page and cannot find Universe Guard 2 on Ore. Is this the Universe Guard 2 version?

Yes, it is :slight_smile: I used the same Ore page as the first one but i don’t remember why honestly. I’ll probably make a new Ore page when version 3 will be realesed
