PreventBuild

Adds control to prevent the player from performing certain actions that are set in configs. Configs, in turn, have a very flexible structure that allows you to build complex logical conditions describing what actions the mod should prevent.

Original purpose of creating this mod was enhancing experience of hand-building map-arts without using any printers and easy-place mode. But now it's more than just preventing placing and breaking: you can prevent any right- or left-click actions, just make sure there is a suitable condition.

This mod is just cancelling the player's actions, so it's fully client-side.

How to use the mod

It's almost mandatory to visit the Wiki to understand how to write a config, because there is no other way to write it except by hand.

There are a few files in config/preventbuild/:

• conditions/ - contains config .cfg files
• condition_configs.json - defines which configurations are active by its individual name
• ore_dictionaries.json - defines custom ore dictionary lists for using in configs

Once you have created/updated your configs, you should update configs in the game using commands.

(For developers) Also you can find out how to create and register your own conditions that you will be able to use in the same config files.

Commands

• /pb config list - display a list of configs with their status
• /pb config switch <name> - enable/disable config by name
• /pb config update - reload all configs

Note

Well, this is my first relatively serious mod and especially the first one for public use. Thanks for visiting :)
