    I suggest unbanning items that were banned only due to protection bypass and moving them out of the players hotbar as soon as they enter/get near a claim they don't own, similar to how players are currently prevented from chiseling blocks in other peoples claims.

    That mechanic is pretty dang annoying but it is better then not being able to use them at all.
    Any specific items in mind Rohen?

    Artifacts:Artifact and Firethrower, likely more.
    Edit: Also:
    • Rod of the Terra Firma (has to be disabled in overworld only due to griefing potential in dimensions with default dirt)
    • Rod of the Molten Core
    • Maybe ban builder near claims and unban shape cards?

    How should we prevent griefing if we would allow them near claims?

    I meant unbanning the item and making the server move it to a different slot when a player with the item on their hotbar get near a claim, like chisels.

    sorry it can't be done you would have to set it up to move some ones items 100 blocks or more before some ones claim....that would mean any claims around would move your item at all times... there are a few banned items that can do damage way outside a claim protection zones so yaa i don't agree with unbanning items.

    Ah, then I did misunderstand it.

    Most items are banned because the range is to large or they don't have a use other then world destruction.

    Read the title. ._.

    Suggestion: Ban short-range items that can bypass protection in claims only.


    There are still two banned items that are neither:
    • Artifacts:Artifact
    • Rod of the Molten Core
    (Firethrower has 16 block range, which is more than the protection range and Rod of the Terra Firma has 16.5 block range)

    Artifacts:Artifact and Rod of The Molten Core.
    One I don't honestly know how bypasses the protection but it ain't got projectiles, and the 2nd one is basically an item-smelting chisel.

    Artifacts aren't really possible because of how they work. Item ids and what not. Rod might be a possibility. Think there was a deeper reason to that ban though.

    I'm not talking about specific artifacts. I'm talking about all of them. These don't have a single projectile-related ability and if it was possible to ban all, it should also be possible to block them all in claims.

    First image from the mod's information, showing a projectile-based ability.

    Is there any that can actually damage terrain (fire spread is disabled on PO2)?

    What I mean is, we really can't specify which should be allowed or not. Most of the items can PvP bypass.
