NoEnderGrief

A tiny Paper plugin that stops endermen from picking up and placing blocks. Nothing else changes.

Why not mobGriefing false?

The vanilla gamerule also disables creeper and ghast block damage, villager farming, sheep eating grass, snow golem trails and more. NoEnderGrief only cancels block changes made by endermen, so the rest of the game stays vanilla.

Install

1. Download NoEnderGrief-1.0.0.jar.
2. Put it in your server's plugins/ folder.
3. Restart the server.

Config

plugins/NoEnderGrief/config.yml

enabled: true   # set to false to let endermen grief again
