# Protection Stones Nicktale
Claim and protect your land by placing a **protection stone**. Lightweight, standalone and free to use on any server or
single player world. **No dependencies:** you only need NeoForge.
Available for Minecraft **26.2** and **26.3** (NeoForge). Install the same file on the server and on every client.
## Stones

Each protection covers the full height of the world. Recipes are normal datapack recipes, so servers can change or
remove them.
## What it protects
Inside a protection, outsiders **cannot**:
- break or place blocks, or use buckets
- hurt animals, pets, villagers or armor stands
- open chests and other containers (when locked)
The following are blocked as well:
- explosions and fire spread
- lava and water flowing in from outside
- pistons pushing in from outside
- mob griefing
## Stone menu
Right-click your stone to manage it, with no commands needed:
- name, and enter/exit messages
- members
- visitor rules: break, place, containers, monster spawns, monster damage, PvP
- home
- hide the stone, and show the border
## Commands
`/ps` (or `/protection`) shows the help.
**Players:** `/ps menu`, `/ps list`, `/ps info`, `/ps view`, `/stonehome [name]`, `/ps sethome`, `/ps clearhome`,
`/ps setname <name>`, `/ps delname`, `/ps add <player>`, `/ps remove <player>`, `/ps members`, `/ps hide`, `/ps unhide`,
`/ps greeting enter|exit <message|reset>`, `/ps backups`
**Admins:** `/ps give <player> <type> [count]`, `/ps listall`, `/ps setowner <player>`, `/ps setrange <size>`,
`/ps backups <owner>`, `/ps restore <owner> latest|<n>`
## Permissions
Works with **LuckPerms** or any NeoForge permission handler. Without one, every player gets the player nodes and OPs get
everything.
- Players: `protectionstones_nicktale.place`, `.view`, `.greeting`, `.stonehome`, `.backups`
- OP only: `protectionstones_nicktale.admin`, `.setowner`, `.breakstone`, `.restore`, `.give`, `.spawn.place`,
`.spawn.edit`, `.stonehome.instant`, `.noexpiry`, `.bypass.limit`
## Server config
`config/protectionstones_nicktale-common.toml`:
- `maxStonesPerPlayer`: 0 means unlimited.
- `inactiveExpiryDays`: 0 means protections never expire.
- `stoneHomeCooldownSeconds`
- `allowOverlapSameOwner`
- `showGreetings`
- Automatic **backups** of each protection, with a quota per owner. Admins can restore them.
Languages
English and Spanish. Each player sees their game language automatically. A server can force one language for everyone
(`forceLanguage`).
