✨ HIGHLIGHTS (A SMALL PREVIEW)

  • Create zones in your world that only permit mods or certain players from building within.
  • Set additional game rules on your server (deny wither block damage, falling damage, etc.).
  • Set game rules on specific areas (food regen, health regen, disable PvP, TNT, control mob damage) in your world.
  • Blacklist certain items and blocks so they can't be used or interacted with.
  • Dump useful statistics and information about your server performance (/wg report -p).
  • CPU profile your server (/wg profile -p).
  • Add useful commands like an immediate "STOP ALL FIRE SPREAD" command.
  • Works natively alongside other major NeoForge, Fabric, and FTB mods.
  • Protects against many types of grief (fire spread, tree growth, TNT cannons, piston machines, crop trampling, paintings and item frames, etc.), and certain interactions can also be allowed (door open, lever usage, etc.).
  • Enable only features you want! Everything is disabled by default. You can just install WorldGuard and configure it later.
