A logbook next to every chest shows who took what, and an unbreakable sign names anyone who breaks your chest.

About

Description

Chest Logbook is made for peaceful survival servers. It shows who took things from a chest, and nobody can break someone else's chest without leaving evidence behind.

A logbook next to every container

Open a chest, barrel, shulker box, furnace, hopper or modded storage block and a written-book-style logbook appears beside it. It shows who took (red) or added (green) which items, how many, and when. Hover over a line to see the exact date and time. The book updates live and turns pages like a real book.

Evidence signs

If someone breaks, blows up (with TNT they lit) or picks up (Carry On) a container that another player placed, an evidence sign appears where it stood: Broken by: Name / date / Chest. Right-click the sign to read an evidence book with the owner, date, time, coordinates, everything that was inside and the container's log from before.

Only a player in creative mode can remove the sign. It can't be mined, blown up, pushed, burned or washed away. If another mod removes it, it comes back. The owner gets a chat message.

More

  • Hopper theft: a hopper one player puts under another player's chest is logged as "Name (hopper)".
  • For admins: /chestlog who <player> lists everything a player took or added, with click-to-teleport coordinates. Every change is also written to logs/chestlogbook/<date>.log.
  • Works with modded storage, including Sophisticated Storage and Backpacks, Storage Drawers, Farmer's Delight, Supplementaries, AE2 and Create storage. Supports Server-side Vein Miner and Building Wands.
  • English and Swedish.

Rules (configurable)

  • The player who places a container owns it. Owners can break their own containers without a sign.
  • Players in creative mode never create signs.
  • Loot chests generated with the world, and containers that existed before the mod was installed, don't get signs.

Config: serverconfig/chestlogbook-server.toml (per world).

Required on both the server and the clients.
