[EXPLOITABLE]: PlotMe piston griefing bug

ArchivesProblems & bugs → [EXPLOITABLE]: PlotMe piston griefing bug

SOLVED

Type: ==[BUG/SEVERE]==

Description: PlotMe Bug allowing users to modify the paths using pistons and slime blocks. Plotme has a problem with detecting pistons pulling blocks, you can use pulling to exceed the plotlimit.

Piston setup:

x = path p = sticky piston s = slime block a = air | = Plotborder

x|aaaaa x|aapas x|sssss

Then use the piston to pull the slimes towards the border and done. And you can remove blocks in the border just simply by pulling them out.

Hotfix (.jar including class to put into PlotMe.jar - classes already compiled): link Source (raw .java file to compile yourself/look at): link

The hotfix not only fixes the griefing bug but also fixes the weird piston behaviour around the plot border

[EDIT: 2015/08/13 23:19:10] You can use slime chains to modify more than just the border…

I believe the next plot me update will fix this issue. Thanks for posting, we will look into it.
