Redstone Clock Preventer - Banner

Introduction

Many players have the brilliant idea to build a redstone clock connected to e.g. a dispanser, filled with tnt, spawn eggs or whatever. Then it happens. The server slos dramaticly down. You're in panic. What happened? While you try to understand what's going on on your server, it crashs. Now you have a suspicion... and another problem. You try to reach the clock and break it, but that isn't easy with 1 fps and 2 tps. Finally you did it. If you have luck, the server progress has saved despite the crash and you don't have to explain everything to your users. This plugin is aimed at server networks with creative server. You might have thought whether just disable redstone in your creative server or on your creative world, but this is not the best solution, but most importantly not the ONLY anymore! Creative means not just building empires. Inventing machines, testing a circuit, ... Redstone is a big part of it. You see.... this plugin is a MUST-HAVE for EVERY server!

How does it work?

I didn't want to disable clocks at all. Not every redstone clock is "bad". Some has kind of a good cause. Either way, no redstone clock may run too long and too quick. And this is what this plugin does. A clock is nothing else than redstone becoming activated and deactived in very short timestamps. This plugin counts the signal-changes (from on to off and from off to on). After a limit is reached, which you can configurate, the "over loaded" redstone replaces with a block. You can set which block. It may be air, then the redstone would just get removed and the circuit is stopped. You can set it to water, and the whole redstone clock will get flooded. But you can also set it to a sign with a specific text, which you can determine (to inform the player about what happen, but I would it use only on creative servers, because otherweise players would be able to cheat signs).
