Blocking certain groups from interacting with certain blocks

mmm arclight is iffy
the permission managers entirely explode when on hybrids

not sure it’s possible

I realized that. But maybe you've got some idea

Using bukkit/spigot plugin

Or maybe mod

i doubt either would work
modded and plugin would just override each other

I tried using worldguard and it partially worked

I've set on-interact=deny and made an exception for admins and it worked, but the game recognizes breaking as interacting too

So i could place it, but not break it

And ofc not interact with it

Yeah, interact fires on the first touch before breaking begins. Kinda just how the game is designed. I don't think you can have break without interact.

What's your use case? Describe the system you're trying to build.

I want to make an rp server where people choose their class and those classes have some buffs and nerfs, for example: someone picked a miner, they get buffs like faster mining. They can use a normal furnace but can't use a blasting furnace or anvil or craft armor, they need to go to the blacksmith which can make those and buy it from him

It might be worthwhile making a small Java plugin that catches interact events for certain blocks, checks the permissions node/group, and if not in the right group / not having the right perm, cancels the event. Super simple to do.

hmmm

I'm actually wondering if there's a way to get a block break event without an interact event now.

Is there a tutorial for something like that?

Because I don't know where to start

Yeah, it's possible. Just have to put BlockBreakEvent as priority LOWEST, so that it fires before PlayerInteractEvent.

Is learning plugin dev something you want to do? If so, then sure, I can point you in the right direction. If not, might be easier to just post in #freelancing and offer someone a bit of cash to make it for you.

It would be easier in the future if I learned plugin dev

fair enough. one moment while I dredge up some beginning materials.

do you have any experience with programming at all?

I made some scripts in js and php for websites
