Restore Nature

What /restorenature actually does

It's a golden shovel mode, not an instant command. Run the command → your shovel switches modes → right-click a block and it restores the area centred on that block. /basicclaims to exit.

All three modes run the same six passes over the area:

  1. Delete floating dirt/grass/snow/logs with air underneath
  2. Delete anything on the player-placed block list
  3. Delete thin walls — a solid block with air on both opposite sides
  4. Fill air pockets below the surface with dirt (netherrack/end stone in other dims) where 3+ neighbours are solid
  5. Re-cap the surface — exposed dirt/stone/cobble/gravel becomes grass, sand in desert/beach, red sand in badlands, mycelium in mushroom; stone under it becomes dirt
  6. Delete floating blocks again

Vertically it goes the full world height. It also clears loose entities in the area and shows you the affected region for 5 seconds.

/restorenature (/rn) — 11×11 area. Removes the standard build-block list: torches, chests, planks, wool, glass, rails, doors, fences, beds, stone bricks, cobblestone, obsidian, spawners, farmland, TNT, etc. Skips any block still inside a claim. In a creative-rules world it additionally strips ores, melons/pumpkins and bedrock.

/restorenatureaggressive (/rna) — same 11×11, but:

  • Ignores claims entirely — it edits claimed blocks too
  • Adds logs and leaves to the removal list, so trees get wiped
  • Adds ores, melons/pumpkins and bedrock even in survival worlds
  • Also deletes floating stone and grass blocks

Don't use it under anything you want to keep.

/restorenaturefill [radius] (/rnf) — in GP3D it is normal mode with an adjustable radius, nothing more. Radius defaults to 2 and clamps to 1–10, so /rnf 10 gives you a 21×21 area instead of 11×11. Same passes, same claim protection. Hole-filling isn't exclusive to it — pass 4 runs in all three modes.

Aggressive and fill need griefprevention.restorenatureaggressive on top of griefprevention.restorenature; both are in the admin permission group by default.
