Overview
Saro's Region Protector provides server admins with a straightforward way to secure areas in their world. Unlike complex plugin-based systems, this mod offers a visual, item-based workflow to define regions and control exactly what happens inside them using a comprehensive flag system.
[!WARNING] Important Note for Admins: Players with Operator (OP) status automatically bypass all region protections and flags. They can always build, break, and interact, regardless of settings. This is intentional to ensure admins always have full control. Please always test permissions with a non-OP account!
Key Features
🛡️ Easy Protection
- Visual Selection: Use the Protector Tool to right-click two corners. You see the selection before you save it.
- Whitelist: Add "Trusted Users" to specific regions who bypass all protections.
- Server-Side: Runs entirely on the server; clients just need the mod to see the GUI.
