Description

Summary

Free redstone protection for Spigot/Paper 1.21+ servers. Track redstone activity per chunk, apply configurable limits, and find problematic chunks before they hurt server performance.

Description

RedstoneProtector is built for server owners who want useful redstone protection without a heavy setup.

The plugin watches redstone activity per chunk. If a chunk exceeds configured material limits, RedstoneProtector can block the signal, temporarily restrict the chunk, and notify staff.

It works on Spigot and Paper. Paper servers can use TPS-based throttle support. On Spigot, normal redstone limits still work and TPS displays as N/A.

Features

• Per-chunk redstone tracking
• Configurable material limits
• Optional world-specific limit overrides
• Automatic temporary chunk restriction
• Paper TPS throttle support
• Staff alerts with cooldown
• Active chunk diagnostics
• Restricted chunk list
• Limit viewer command
• World and chunk whitelist
• Reloadable config and messages
• Hex color support
• No required dependencies
