We are making a FTB ultimate raiding and pvp server. We want to keep as many items as possible from being blacklisted as possible because we don't want to limit the players. We are running into a problem that we cannot figure out. We used WorldGuard to protect the spawn but you are still able to damage the edges using nukes dynamite and industrial tnt as well as quarrays gravity guns and portal guns when shot at the moon. We wanted to know if there are any plugins that will completely protect blocks from being destroyed through these methods. I have tried the Grief Prevention plugin witch I am having trouble changing the settings but even when I get that working the quarries gravity guns and portal guns will still be able to damage/move blocks. I have not been able to find any plugin that could help us so any suggestions are good. Thanks!

**Edit: Just figured out that grief prevention won't work to protect against nukes industrial tnt and dynamite :( So the plugin that I need will have to be able to prevent against these objects too.

Grief Prevention and Tekkit Customizer will solve your problems. Just remember they use Yet Another Markup Language configs. aka YAML. Don't use any tabs, 4 spaces instead otherwise Tekkit Customizer will wipe the config back to default.

Doesn't tekkit customizer block items or does it do more? also I couldn't get grief prevention to stop dynamite or industrial tnt from damaging the protected area. I also use world guard but all that stops is the normal Minecraft stuff.

You need to manually enter the configs in order for plugins to protect from modded attacks. Tekkit Customizer has an option to protect the surface aka above sea level from explosions. Can't help you much, you just need to use the right plugins and create modded configs for them.

Well its a raid server so I don't want to completely disable explosions above sea level. Just in certain areas. Like the spawn.

Ok, use Grief Prevention to claim spawn, and if you setup configs correctly it should be explosion proof.

ok thanks. Any other suggestions from anyone else about the gravity gun and mining laser protection would be very helpful. Thanks!

I think there is a ported version of IC2 that might include proper protection system integration for the laser. The gravity and portal guns don't have a port, so you will have to ban them, they bypass all plugins.
