HyProtect is a lightweight and configurable spawn protection mod designed for Hytale servers. It ensures your server's spawn point remains safe and unaltered by preventing block modifications and damage within a specified radius.

Features

• Spawn Protection: Prevents players from breaking or placing blocks within the protected area.
• Damage Prevention: Disables damage (both PvP and PvE) within the spawn radius (or a separately configured damage radius).
• Configurable Radius: Easily adjust the protection radius and shape via in-game commands or configuration file.
• Protection Shapes: Choose between Circle (Cylindrical) or Square protection zones.
• Visualization System: Visually display the protection boundaries with ghost blocks that update as you move.
• Zone Notifications: Players receive on-screen title notifications when entering or exiting protected zones (e.g., "Safe Zone", "Wilderness").
• Admin Controls: Secure commands to manage settings on the fly.

You can allow players to place and break blocks respectively with the following two permissions: 

hyprotect.place and hyprotect.break

Installation

1. Download the latest hyprotect-x.x.x.jar from the releases page.
2. Place the jar file into your Hytale server's mods directory.
3. Restart your server.

Usage

Commands

Visualization

The visualization system allows admins (or players with permission) to see exactly where the protection boundaries are.

• Usage: Run /hyprotect show to enable.
• Ghost Blocks: The mod renders "ghost blocks" (client-side only blocks) to trace the outline of the protection zone.
• Dynamic Positioning: The boundary is rendered 5 blocks below your current position. As you move up or down, the old blocks are automatically cleared and redrawn at your new height, ensuring the border is always visible relative to you.
• Dual Zones: If your Spawn Radius and Damage Radius are different, two separate borders will be shown, allowing you to visualize both zones simultaneously.
• Shapes: The visualization respects your configured shape—it will draw a square or a circle accordingly.
• Disable: Run /hyprotect hide to instantly clear all visualization blocks.

Zone Notifications

Players are automatically notified when they cross protection boundaries.

• Build/Spawn Zone:
  • Enter: Displays "Spawn" - "Building is disabled here"
  • Exit: Displays "Wilderness" - "You can build here"
• Damage/Safe Zone:
  • Enter: Displays "Safe Zone" - "You are safe from other players"
  • Exit: Displays "Combat Zone" - "Players can attack you here"

These notifications are sent as on-screen titles for high visibility.

Configuration

The configuration file is located at mods/HyProtect/config.json. You can edit this file manually or use the /hyprotect set commands.

Default Configuration:

{
  "spawnProtectRadius": 50,
  "damageProtectRadius": -1,
  "protectionShape": "square",
  "buildEntryTitle": "Spawn",
  "buildEntrySubtitle": "Building is disabled here",
  "buildExitTitle": "Wilderness",
  "buildExitSubtitle": "You can build here",
  "damageEntryTitle": "Safe Zone",
  "damageEntrySubtitle": "You are safe from other players",
  "damageExitTitle": "Combat Zone",
  "damageExitSubtitle": "Players can attack you here"
}

• spawnProtectRadius: The radius (in blocks) around the world spawn point where block modification is prevented.
• damageProtectRadius: The radius (in blocks) where damage is prevented. Set to -1 to use the same value as spawnProtectRadius.
• protectionShape: The shape of the protection zone. Can be square or circle.
• *Title / *Subtitle: Configurable text for the zone entry/exit notifications.
