CraftGuard

[!NOTE]
Project Evolution & Rebranding Notice

• Evolution: CraftGuard is the official successor to FlameAntiCraft.
• Future Rebrand: CraftGuard will soon transition to ServerGuard under the VOMLabs Organization. This rebrand will include a complete plugin rewrite for maximum performance and reliability, and Maven support will be deprecated in favor of Gradle (Kotlin DSL).

---

Overview

CraftGuard provides precise control over player interactions down to individual world environments. Block crafting tables, restrict ender chests, or lock down portal dimensions per world. This is ideal for survival hubs, creative plots, minigame arenas, and adventure maps.

Key Highlights

• Per-World Toggles: Configure completely independent rules for every world on your network.
• Workstation Protection: Control 15+ workstation types (Anvils, Furnaces, Grindstones, Smithing Tables, etc.).
• Container Security: Restrict usage of Chests, Ender Chests, Shulker Boxes, and specialized containers.
• Portal Management: Separately toggle Nether and End portal transitions.
• Flexible Storage: Native support for YAML, H2, MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and Redis.
• GUI & Smart Commands: Complete visual management interface alongside fast tab-completed commands.
• Localization & Placeholders: Dynamic PlaceholderAPI integration and multi-language support.

PlaceholderAPI Integration

Expose real-time feature states and statistics to scoreboards, tablists, or holograms. (Replace <world> and <feature> with your specific values, e.g., %craftguard_world_survival_furnace%).

World States

• %craftguard_world_state% — State of the current world (enabled/disabled).
• %craftguard_world_state_<feature>% — Feature state in the current world.
• %craftguard_world_<world>_<feature>% — Feature state in a specific world.

Statistics

• %craftguard_stats_global_total% — Total blocked interactions network-wide.
• %craftguard_stats_type_<feature>_total% — Total blocked interactions for a specific feature type.
• %craftguard_stats_world_<world>_total% — Total blocked interactions in a specific world.
