Sorry for my late response! Your permissions file is correct. Unfortunately the game currently only supports item restrictions, no object restrictions (e.g. furniture, workbenches etc)... However, we will add support for object restrictions with the next update (tonight)

You're quite alright I guessed you'd be pretty busy at the moment. I did think it looked like only items worked and not objects. At least I know I wasn't going mad! Will the syntax be "item" or "object" (I'm guessing the latter).

objects:
    crafting:
        deny:
        - workbench2

I'm new to all this, and I'm in the process of setting up a server.

I've just added the AreaProtection script - my question is, will I have to redefine all the areas once I move from script to plugin?

I don't know if this information helps but this is the machines spec:

Clean install of Windows Server 2012 R2 STD
Clean install of MySQL Server Community Edition
Dell PowerEdge T420
Xeon 2.4 Processor
8GB ECC RAM
1TB RAID 0 HDD
ESET File Security AV

This is a dedicated server which is just going to host one world on it.

I've not done anything "clever" or done anything different to that of the installation guide.

I've tried adding the code

items:
  crafting:
    deny:
    - workbench2

To the guest permission instead just incase the default one didn't like it. But I get the same console error / symptoms.

It does seem that I can block any item but not any object.

Edit: maybe I should wait to see what happens when I update the server to the latest version tonight?

Oh and in game as an admin I can spawn the workbench2 with the console command

Yeah when testing I have removed myself from the admin list firsts.

I've tested this by trying the command object workbench2 1 - which as expected I get a a "you don't have permission" message in red. Other commands are blocked too as you would expect.

I then go to my workbench (seen in second screen capture) and the workbench2 isn't listed as locked and you can still make/craft it.

I've also tried this for other objects and they too seem to display the same "symptoms" i.e. message on the console and ability to craft the item in game. counter1, counter2, counter3 etc

this is all in the default.permissions file (no custom group) I've tried other objects too like grill but it only seems to work for items.

So the YAML has been a bit of a learning curve. But I'm getting its quirks now I think. I've managed to block the creation of items using:

items:
    crafting:
        deny:
        - lumber

Can anyone show me the syntax for denying the workbench2 object?

I've tried the following but neither of them work

objects:
    crafting:
        deny:
        - workbench2


items:
    crafting:
        deny:
        - workbench2

Though I had sorted it... but it's only working for items and not objects!

I've tried

objects:
    crafting:
        deny:
        - workbench2

Ahh I've sorted it!

YAML syntax requires 2 spaces of the keyboard for every indent!

Hope that gets changed to XML at some point.

very true!

And no not in chat, the message is on the server side. Java error.

Thanks for the reply but that doesn't really help.

The server is online and working. The config file segment is like

items:
    crafting:
        deny:
        - tnt

As soon as I modify *just* the tnt text bit to say "radiator" such as:

items:
    crafting:
        deny:
        - radiator

I'm getting "WARNING: Permission for item id radiator not found"

For future reference you can always press Ctrl+F on your keyboard and search for a string like the word "search" (in this instance). I often use the 'find' facility to navigate websites quickly.

Hmm still struggling with this.

I'm getting warning messages such as: WARNING: Permission for item id counter1 not found

As a test I just replaced the tnt text under crafting deny to counter1 and I got the above warning message, I've also tried it for things like workbench2 and radiator.

OK I've worked it out! Thanks to Red post on Steam


Here's the file if anyone else is looking for the answer too

chatcolor: 0xFFFFFF
chatnamecolor: 0xFFFFFF


commands:
    deny:
    - *
general:
    fly: false
    debuglight: false
    pvp: false
    pve: true
customimages:
    enabled: true
    maxupload: 10
    dimension: 512
blueprints:
    use: false
    create: false
creative:
    deny:
    - *
items:
    crafting:
        deny:
        - tnt
    pickup:
        general:
            deny:
            - tnt
        chest:
            deny:
            - tnt
        body:
            deny:
            - tnt
    drop:
        general:
            deny:
            - tnt
        chest:
            deny:
            - tnt
        body:
            deny:
            - tnt

Ahh! Worked like a charm! Sorry I'm still on a steep learning curve at the moment!

Many thanks lenko!

Hmm this is my test permissions file (default.permissions)

chatcolor: 0xFFFFFF
chatnamecolor: 0xFFFFFF


commands:
    deny:
    - *
general:
    fly: false
    debuglight: false
customimages:
    enabled: true
    maxupload: 10
    dimension: 512
blueprints:
    use: false
    create: false
creative:
    deny:
    - *
items:
crafting:
deny:
    - workbench2
    - counter1

Lines 20-24 create a NullPointerException?
