Lock Expire Feature
DO NOT TURN ON THIS FEATURE UNLESS YOU READ THIS THOROUGHLY! LOOK INTO THE DRAWBACK SECTION!
Dependency
ProtocolLib is strongly recommended, but not required. If the feature is enabled without ProtocolLib, the plugin will work correctly, but signs' [Private] line will be ugly.
How to Use
In order to enable this feature, you need to set lock-expire
to true
in config.yml. You should also change relevant config according to your wish.
How this works
Upon sign is created, the sign's first line is usually [Private]. While this feature is enable, the line will become "[Private]#created:<unix time>". This will allow the plugin to track when a sign is created.
Whenever someone tries to access a lock, if "current time - created time > lock expire time", the lock will become ineffective.
Possible Drawback and Fix
It is not possible to tell when a sign is created if the special [Private] line does not exists. It is also not possible to tell whether the actual creator of the sign has the no-expire permission "lockettepro.noexpire" at anytime without possible impact. The no-expire info is stored while signs are created. Therefore, an admin's old sign carried from LockettePro 3.0.0- will possibly be unlocked by unauthorized user. In order to counter this issue, you can:
- Set
lock-force-expire-time-unix
to 0. This value means all locks without a created time will be unlocked after that unix time. If set to 0, locks without created time will remain locked. - Use command /lockettepro fixsign . This will properly add current time to all signs within this range.
