BlockLimiter
Simple, lightweight block placement limiter for Paper servers
BlockLimiter lets you control how many of certain blocks players can place within a world. Perfect for preventing lag from excessive containers, managing economy balance, or limiting abuse of specific blocks like chests, shulker boxes, and more.
- 🔒 Limit placement of specific materials (e.g. CHEST, SHULKER_BOX) - 🌍 Per-world control — only apply limits where you want - ⚡ Lightweight & optimized for performance (Paper 1.21.11 ready) - 🛠️ Supports wildcards (e.g. "*_SHULKER_BOX") - 💬 Customizable messages with placeholders - 🔄 Simple reload command (/blocklimiter reload) - 🧩 Clean and minimal configuration
⚙️ Config File
``` enabled-worlds: - world
