Who wants a Protection plugin here? & A Question

[supertransformer]

I'm making a protection plugin, how many people will use it/want it here?
It takes alot of time & its complicated xD

& while im here i will ask a question.

Is this a good idea to check if the X/Y/Z coords are in the protected area?

x = 168.45539
CodsProtectedX = 169.45538

if (x<CodsProtectedX) then
-- Yup, it should block the aciton.
else
-- Nope, the player can place the block/dig it
end

I believe this is one of the most requested plugins

I don't quite follow your code. Are you making just one comparison of the coord? then you're "protecting" too much - nothing to the east (or whatever direction it is) of this coord can't be touched. You're much better off using a cCuboid class for storing the coords - it can store two pairs of XYZ coords, sort them and then it takes just a function call to know whether a point is inside or not.

The docs on the cCuboid class should be up to date; however I'm thinking about adding more IsInside() function flavors - ones taking a set of three coords rather than a vector.
