Aura BlockFill

Aura BlockFill

Automatically regenerate mining areas while protecting your server with configurable SafeZones.

Aura BlockFill is a production-ready Hytale plugin that allows server owners to create protected mining regions that automatically regenerate over time. Players can freely mine inside designated areas while the surrounding environment remains protected from griefing and unwanted modifications.

Designed for Prison, Survival, RPG, Factions and Hub servers, Aura BlockFill provides a simple in-game configuration workflow without requiring complex configuration files.

Features

Automatic Mine Regeneration

• Create fully configurable mining regions.
• Automatically regenerate blocks after a configurable timer.
• Weighted random block generation.
• Fully automatic regeneration cycle.

Safe Zones

Protect important areas from griefing.

• Prevent block breaking.
• Prevent block placement.
• Prevent unwanted interactions.
• Fill regions remain mineable while still being protected by the surrounding SafeZone.

In-Game Region Selection

Configure everything directly inside the game.

• Select Fill Zones.
• Select Safe Zones.
• No external editors required.

Visual Fill Configuration

Instead of editing percentages manually, simply open the Fill Chest and place the blocks you want to generate.

The amount of each block inside the chest determines its generation weight automatically.

Example:

• 64 Stone
• 16 Iron Ore
• 4 Diamond Ore

Stone will naturally generate much more frequently than Diamond.

Automatic Player Safety

Before regeneration starts:

• Players inside the mining region are detected.
• Players are moved to a safe location.
• The mine regenerates instantly.
• Prevents players from being trapped inside regenerated blocks.

Configurable Announcements

Customize:

• Regeneration interval
• Warning messages
• Countdown
• Chat messages
• Labels
• Prefixes

Everything is configurable through JSON.

Persistent Storage

All regions and configured blocks are automatically saved.

Uses atomic file writing to reduce the risk of data corruption.
