Attention:
If you're updating from Version 1.1.0 to the 1.1.5 (or higher) you should backup your DenyBlocks configs and delete the original configs afterwards. I needed to make several changes to have a better granularity for denied objects. Sorry for that in advance.

Brief

This mod gives you as admin of a server the ability to deny certain blocks/items of certain mods in certain dimensions for placement, interaction and/or attack.

Usage

It's mainly used to have multiple themed dimensions or only one with several denied items. It's up to you what you finally use this mod for.

You can use this mod within a server without needing it as player. (Server side)
You can use this mod as single player, too. (Client side)

I for example had medieval themed mods and tech related mods but didn't wanted to have them together in one dimension, therefor I developed this mod to have two strict separated worlds.

ModID: To figure out the ID of a mod use my mod ShowPlugins or open the JAR file with an application like 7-zip and extract the file "mcmod.info", open this file with an editor like Notepad++ and you will see the modid.

Block/-ItemID: To figure out the ID of a block/item use the ingame command show. See the sub commands.

Features

Deny blocks and items (objects) based on their names and/or their mod origin
- for example: deny all objects from mod xyz in dimension abc
- or: deny item xyz from mod abc in all dimension
- or: deny eveything in every dimension
- or: deny block xyz from mod abc in dimension 123 and 987
Placeholder to match every dimension/mod/object are possible
Wildcards for objects are possible
Commands to add/remove/clear denied objects
Permission for each command possible
Customizable language configuration
A bypass option to have still full control over the denied blocks as admin [since 1.1.5]
Customizable if you want to deny the object for placement, interaction or attack [since 1.1.5]
Deny messages can be turned on/off [since 1.1.5]

denyBlocksAndItems (until 1.1.0)
- The list of denied objects.
- see syntax/examples
denyPlacement [since 1.1.5]

Syntax / Examples

The syntax is the following:

dimension:mod:block:type (placement) (interaction) (attack) [since 1.1.5]
dimension:mod:item:type (placement) (interaction) (attack) [since 1.1.5]

Every position can use an 'x', which means it can be everything. An 'x' for dimension would mean 'every dimension'.

The block/item node is able to use wildcards. Put an asterix (*) at the beginning and/or the end to filter a block/item ending, starting or containing your filter.

Permissions

Each command has it's own permission so that the mod is fully customizable to your needs.

Structure:

denyblocks.commands.Commands //Main command

denyblocks.commands.Command<CommandName> //Sub commands

Example:

denyblocks.commands.CommandHelp //Help command

denyblocks.commands.CommandSyntax //Syntax command

[...]

I can't assume that you want provide the functions of the mod to anyone therefore you will possibly encounter the message: "You do not have permission to use this command."

Use a permission manager like ThutPerms to solve this problem by providing you the permissions you need.

Installation

Just put the mod into your mod folder. It's only needed on the server-side if you're hosting a server.

Dependencies

You need at least the corresponding Forge Version.

Language

Currently I'm providing the mod in british english (hopefully). There will be a language file created which gives you the ability to translate the entire mod to your target language:

config/denyblocks/configLang.cfg

Ideas / Suggestions

As developer one can only guess what the needs of admins / players are, so don't hesitate telling me your ideas / suggestions. Even if you're thinking that some things could be solved much easier or on another way I will appreciate it.

Bugs / Problems

I'm not able to cover all conditions the mod will encounter therefore there can always be bugs / problems, if you find some please tell me so I can fix them. One advice from me at this point: Provide basic information like MC/Forge version and mod version.

Modding

Outstanding until it gets open source.

Source Code (/ Copyright)

I'm a fan of open source, I really do and I'm willing to provide the source code if I get enough requests for it or I decide to publish it - until this point all rights are reserved.
