💣 ExplosionProtector addon for CoreProtect
Protect your players’ builds from unwanted explosions
A lightweight Spigot/Paper plugin that uses CoreProtect to prevent explosions from destroying blocks placed by players.
🧠 Description
ExplosionProtector
hooks into all types of explosions (TNT, creeper, ender crystal, bed/respawn-anchor explosions, etc.) and checks each affected block’s origin via the CoreProtect API.
- Player-placed blocks are protected and remain intact.
- All other blocks (natural terrain, plugin-placed, etc.) are destroyed as normal.
- TNT chain reactions are still allowed: TNT will break TNT and natural blocks, but any player-placed block in the blast radius remains safe.
This is ideal for:
- PvE or Creative servers where you want to preserve player builds.
- Minigame or adventure maps that use TNT but need to protect certain structures.
- Any world where accidental or malicious explosions should not ruin player work.
⚙️ Installation
- Download the latest
ExplosionProtector.jar
. - Place it into your server’s
plugins/
directory. - Ensure you have CoreProtect v10+ installed and enabled.
- Start or reload your server. You should see in console:
[ExplosionProtector] Plugin enabled: protecting player-placed blocks from explosions.
