Configuration

AreaRegen creates its files inside:

plugins/AreaRegen/

Most area settings are stored in:

areas.yml

Common Area Settings

An area can define:

• the world it belongs to
• two selected corner points
• whether the area is enabled
• regeneration delay
• regeneration speed
• active triggers
• material blacklist
• material whitelist
• container behavior

Delay And Speed

delay controls how long the plugin waits before regeneration starts.

regen-time controls how quickly blocks regenerate after the task starts.

Minecraft uses ticks. 20 ticks is about 1 second.

Material Filters

Use a blacklist when most blocks should regenerate but a few should not.

Use a whitelist when only specific blocks should regenerate.

Examples:

• blacklist TNT so TNT itself does not come back
• whitelist stone and ores for a mine
• blacklist containers if you want to handle them manually

Container Mode

Use container mode to control item safety.

Recommended public survival setting:

EMPTY

See Container Handling for details.

Editing Files

If you edit files manually:

1. Stop the server or make a backup first.
2. Edit the file.
3. Start the server or run /arearegen reload.
4. Test the area.
