ExplosionRegen is currently NOT maintained

If you want to continue it, send me a PM and I'll create a MIT-like license for the source.

ExplosionRegen introduces the ability to raid any "base" with TNT or Creepers, but limits the amount of possible griefing to stealing chests and diamond/emerald/gold blocks. It goes hand in hand with the Factions plugin.

ExplosionRegen regenerates explosions that have damaged faction territories.

Behaviour

Explosions that have damaged anything inside a faction claim regenerate after a set time (default 60m)
If Factions plugin is not installed, all explosions will be regenerated
If another plugin cancels the explosion (technical: with event priority higher than LOW), nothing will be done
Block that have been blasted that will be regenerated do not drop (to avoid duplication)
Regeneration excludes inventory holders like chests; thos drop their contents
Regeneration also excludes diamond-, emerald- and gold-ores and -blocks; those drop their corresponding item
Explosions break obsidian in a 3x3 box around explosion center
Clears liquid during explosion, so that water does not block explosions at all - this also means that vanilla cannons break and since do not behave as expected - aid of another cannon plugin is suggested.

Commands

/er regen to regenerate all pending explosions, only available to OPs.

On server stop or /reload all explosions are regenerated in the same manner.

Blocks that regenerate correctly

Some blocks might not be correctly restored. List of blocks or entities that restore or should restore correctly (effort has been put into it):

All blocks with no special properties
Paintings
Item frames
Flower pots
Ladders and vines
Signs
Player heads only if PlayerHeads plugin is installed!

Blocks that do not regenerate correctly

Mob heads (maybe PlayerHeads plugin has something - in any case sets orientation wrong)
Redstone and any other block that cannot "survive" with a block of air below (order*)
Wheat and any other "plant" that needs farmland below (order*)
Note blocks (pitch is not restored correctly)

(*order): depends on the order of regeneration - maybe reorder the regenration-blocks from top to bottom would solve this problem.

Blocks with untested regeneration

Portals
Pistons

Source code

This plugin performs a heavy and bug-prone task. I intend to keep it lightweight.

I will most likely accept any PRs concerning bug fixes. But if you want me to accept a feature adding PR, please consider sending me a message first or opening a github ticket about it. Source at github
