Chunkban

!chunkban

ChunkBan is a lightweight Paper plugin that lets you create special ChunkBan Shulker Boxes capable of permanently marking chunks as banned. Simply obtain a ChunkBan Shulker Box, throw it into the world, and the chunk where it lands will become a restricted area.

The ChunkBan Shulker Box contains specially generated Written Books with custom data attached to the item, allowing the plugin to reliably identify it without accidentally triggering on normal Shulker Boxes.

Once a ChunkBan Shulker Box activates inside a chunk, that chunk is registered as banned. Players attempting to enter the banned chunk will automatically be kicked from the server with a ChunkBan message. Banned chunks are saved by the plugin, meaning they remain banned even after the server restarts.

Important

ChunkBan is designed as a server-side gameplay mechanic. It does not modify Minecraft's network protocol or intentionally send malformed packets. The books inside the Shulker Box are part of the item's design and are used to make the ChunkBan item visually and technically distinctive.
