Leaf Decay Plug-in

[Leaf4Prez]

WorldGuard for Bukkit used to have this. Would love to find a plug-in that would prevent leaves from decaying.

I could whip something up for you. Would it prevent all leaves from decaying, or just those in a specific range? Would they still drop items when broken?

That would be wonderful. Currently I have a very large world I've ported from over a dozen different updates which I've continually built on. Without WorldGuard, or something similar every time I load the map up it is a lagfest of leaf decay and drops from the plants.

So anything that just stops leaves from decaying globally; so all leaves. Perhaps an option to turn off drops? If that isn't available, drops off would be fine.

Anyway, if its possible I'd love your help. Thanks <3

Well, looking over the available hooks, I can whip up a plugin that will prevent leaves from creating drops. Unfortunately there is no hook to prevent natural block decay.

Ah, well I appreciate it. The important thing is the leaf decay. =\ I suppose if I had quick hands I could replace every leaf block with 1.8+ self placed blocked.

I guess you could make it if you'd like, but I am unsure how good it will do. Thanks anyway, and appreciate everything though!

Oh! Since it is a pre-generated world, I can replace each leaf block with a self-placed leaf block when the chunk is loaded. Though this means you would have to wander the entire world to make sure very chunk got loaded.

You can download the plugin from https://github.com/SamJBarney/LeafDecayPrevention . That should solve your problems, but it will slow down initial loading of chunks a little bit.

Once you've loaded in all of the chunks, disable and remove the plugin. Prevention will last beyond the plugin being loaded.
