Protections and Claims
Protection hooks are automatic. There is no toggle in config.yml. When a supported protection plugin is present, SmartSpawner asks it before three actions:
- Open menu: right-click a spawner to open the GUI.
- Stack: add spawners to a stack.
- Break: mine or remove a spawner.
The flag or trust level that allows each action lives inside the protection plugin, not inside SmartSpawner. Pick your plugin below for the exact settings.
Who bypasses every check
Operators and players with the * wildcard permission (plus worldguard.region.bypass for WorldGuard) skip all protection checks. Test with a regular player account.
