MapLocker – Map & Template Locking Plugin
MapLocker lets players lock maps and templates by crafting them in a honeycomb frame — place your map or template in the center surrounded by 8 honeycombs to create an uncopyable item. Blocks duplication in Crafting Tables, Cartography Tables, and Auto-Crafters.
