🔐Container Protection
Learn more about protecting your containers from thieves.
Protect your containers such as chests, furnaces, and doors to ensure people cannot steal your items! Want to protect your buildings and land? Check out the "Towns" page!
Cooperating with your friends might mean that you will share doors, chests, and many other locked containers. In order for you to share your locked containers with other players, you must trust them to the containers. Learn how below.
Containers
Containers such as chests are automatically locked upon placing them.
🔐 Creating Protections
/lock Creates a private protection that only you can access. You can also add other players or groups:
/lock→ Locks the block for you only/cprivate Steve→ Adds Steve to the lock/cprivate @Steve→ Adds Steve with permission to manage the lock/cprivate Alex g:moderator→ Adds player Alex and the "moderator" group
/cpublic Creates a public protection. Anyone can use it, but only you can remove or modify it.
/cdonation Anyone can put items in, but cannot take anything out.
/cdisplay Anyone can view items, but cannot remove or add anything.
/cpassword
Creates a password-protected lock. Use /cunlock to unlock it with the password.
/cdefault <player> Automatically adds the given player to all new protections you create.
🛠️ Managing Protections
/cmodify Add or remove users/groups to an existing lock.
Examples:
/cmodify Steve→ Gives Steve access/cmodify -Steve→ Removes Steve/cmodify @Steve→ Gives Steve admin access/trust add Steve→ Gives Steve access to all your containers.
/cremove or /unlock Removes the protection from the block.
/cinfo Punch the protected block to see info on who owns it and who has access.
/climits Shows how many protections you’ve used and how many you’re allowed.
⚙️ Protection Settings (Flags)
Flags let you customize how your protections behave:
/credstone – Allow redstone to open protected blocks
/cautoclose – Makes doors auto-close after opening
/cmagnet – Pull nearby items into the chest
/callowexplosions – Allows explosions to break the block
/chopper on – Allow hoppers to put in and take out items
/lwc flag hopperin – Allow hoppers to insert only
/lwc flag hopperout – Allow hoppers to extract only
🧰 Extra Modes
/cpersist Keep your last protection command active (great for locking many chests in a row).
/cnolock Temporarily disables auto-locking when placing containers.
/cnospam Hides LWC messages in chat when creating protections.
/cdroptransfer
Send dropped items directly to a selected chest.
Use /cdroptransfer select to choose the target chest.
That’s it! You can always type /lwc in-game to get help or see available commands.
