LWC - Move to alternative... or not?

What I'm suggesting is we move to this:

My reasoning is it's literally the only other chest protection plugin that is easy to use (I'm looking at you, chestcapsule, or whatever it's called)

Positive aspects - Chests would protect properly ;p.

Negative aspects - Would require a remake of all chests whilst /cp 2 is active to create private chests, etc.

As usual, up to you guys.

Code:


    '/cp 1' sets current mode to 'Public' (This is the default)
    '/cp 2' sets current mode to 'Private'
    '/cp 3 name1 name2 nameN' sets current mode to 'Players' and grants access to named players
    '/cp 4 group1 group2 groupN' sets current mode to 'Groups' and grants access to named groups
    Place the chest, furnace or dispenser. The current protection mode will be applied.
    Note: When placing double chests, each half chest is handled independently. I highly recommend using the same mode for both to avoid confusion.

Kn16h7 wrote:well... its not in the option but i know a plugin that locks chest doors and furnaces using signs, its usfull to because you can add people to it very easy, it locks a double chest with ONE sign, and the same with double doors, also it u use it on double doors it opens them both with one click. plus, because it has a sign on it with the owners name, you know what chest belongs to who.

Meh personally i prefer it over /lwc.

its called Lockette

If I may, I'd suggest this plugin here: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

It's also used by another massive server (which I'm not naming here) and seems to work really well.
You can lock chests, furnaces, doors and dispensers.
good: no database, a whole lot less load on the server.
bad: it might not be idiot proof as it requires a sign, but imho, if you provide an easy how to on the forum and in spawn and people still don't get it, then they're probably too stupid.

Again, I have 8 friends who use my stuff. There is no way I can get 8 or more friends on one sign.
