GlobalStructureLoot Lite
Edit Minecraft structure chest loot on Paper servers.
Free • Lightweight • Paper-focused • Structure chest loot editor
What is GlobalStructureLoot Lite?
GlobalStructureLoot Lite is a free Paper plugin that lets server owners add vanilla Minecraft items to generated structure chest loot without editing Minecraft JSON loot table files.
It is made for survival, SMP, adventure, RPG, and progression-based servers that want better exploration rewards in dungeons, villages, mineshafts, temples, bastions, ancient cities, and other vanilla structures.
Instead of modifying the loot table files directly, the plugin modifies the generated loot result when a Minecraft loot table is used.
This makes GlobalStructureLoot Lite useful if you want to improve vanilla structure rewards, add rare items to generated chests, or balance exploration around your server progression.
Main Features
- Add vanilla Minecraft items to generated structure chest loot
- Modify generated Minecraft loot table results
- Structure chest loot editing
- Loot table filters
- Biome filters
- World whitelist and blacklist
- Config validation command
- Reload command
- Debug logs

What can it be used for?
GlobalStructureLoot Lite can be used to improve exploration rewards on your Minecraft server.
Example use cases:
- Add rare vanilla materials to structure chests
- Improve weak vanilla structure rewards
- Make exploration more useful for survival players
- Add bonus loot to dungeons, temples, villages, mineshafts, bastions, ancient cities, and more
- Control which worlds can receive extra loot

- Apply loot rules only in specific biomes
- Balance structure rewards around your server progression
- Create better rewards for SMP, RPG, survival, and adventure servers
How is this different from per-player loot plugins?
GlobalStructureLoot Lite is not a per-player loot chest plugin.
Some plugins focus on giving each player their own personal loot inside the same chest.
GlobalStructureLoot Lite focuses on editing what generated Minecraft structure chests can contain.
If you want to change the rewards generated inside vanilla structure chests, this plugin is made for that.
Important Information
- Already opened chests will not be modified.
- Already generated loot will not be modified.
- The plugin only affects loot when it is generated.
- The plugin does not directly edit Minecraft JSON loot table files.
- This Lite version is focused on adding vanilla Minecraft items only.
