Hi

On Tuesday I was griefed, though the matter was very quickly investigated and the player dealt with. Salamander9o requested a roll-back on Wednesday and just wondered how long they typically take. In the meantime, I have gotten loads of IRL stuff done (Booo!) and had a chance to try out Mineverse, .Org and am continuing to play Hellblock.

I am also interested to know how it works, do you just roll-back individual player data? How is this done? Is this located on a SQL database or something similar?

Tanks!

They use a plugin called core protect or something of the sorts. It comes with a log block plugin that keeps record of blocks and chests that where placed, broken, looted etc. It also keeps track of the time it the block/chest was edited.

 

I'm not familiar with LogBlock. But I have some knowledge of how CoreProtect (basically the same thing) works.

Each block has it's own data.
Who removed what block.
Who placed what block.
And when it was placed.

When you inspect a certain block with "/co i" you will get this:
----- CoreProtect ----- (x218/y69/z-84)
1.13h ago - NoPlzIFan placed #4 (Cobblestone)
1.12h ago - NoPlzIFan removed #4 (Cobblestone)
0.26h ago - NoPlzIFan placed #35 (Wool)

CoreProtect can check: Chests, blocks, furnaces. Basically everything.

Rollbacks are performed with the command: /co rollback r:<radius> t:<time> u<user>
- <user> is optional

Example: /co rollback r:10 t:5m u:NoPlzIFan
This will rollback everything done by NoPlzIFan within 10 block radius, in the past 10 minutes.

Example: /co rollback r:10 t:5m
This will rollback everything done within 10 lock radius, in the past 10 minutes.

Usually on a server, when someone griefs and is banned, a global rollback will be performed.
/co rollback r:#global t:5d u:NoPlzIFan
This will rollback everything done by NoPlzIFan globally, in the past 5 days. Every single block placed by the user, and every single block removed by the user.

Btw North, LogBlock and CoreProtect are different plugins, but they do the exact same thing c:

 

Thanks for the detailed response NoPlzIFan, this is really helpful. I am curious as I wanted to know how long it would take to get my island rolled-back and wondered how much of an hassle it would be to do.

It is interesting that it would be all of the griefer's actions that get reversed rather than my island being taken back by a certain amount.

Would I be able to ask a Mod in-game to do this or would it they have to reference a formal request to do so? Salamander90 has already done this I think - just waiting for somebody to perform it.

Thanks again!
