Protecting Containers & Doors

🔐 MOST STORAGE LOCKS ITSELF
Chests, barrels, furnaces, shulker boxes, and many doors are automatically protected when placed. “Automatically” is not permission to wander off without checking.

Check before walking away

Punch or interact with the protection as directed by LWC, then use /cinfo to inspect ownership and flags. Use /climits to see your protection allowance.

Important commands:

Command Purpose
/cprivate Create a private protection
/cmodify <player> Add a player to an existing private protection
/cmodify -<player> Remove a player from access
/cpublic Allow public use while retaining ownership
/cdonation Allow deposits but restrict withdrawals
/cdisplay Allow viewing but restrict taking items
/cremove Remove your protection
/cinfo Inspect a protection
`/chopper on off`

Run the command, then click the block you want to affect.


Sharing safely

Grant access to exact usernames and remove access when it is no longer needed. A public protection is appropriate for genuinely shared infrastructure—not private valuables.

Hoppers are denied access to protected containers by default unless the protection allows them. If an item sorter stops at a protected chest, inspect the hopper flag before rebuilding the machine.

Protection is a tool, not thedivine rulebook.intervention. Unlocked does not mean abandoned, and asomebody technicalelse's accessconfiguration mistake doesis not makeloot theftspawning acceptable.with extra steps.
