WGExtender is a plugin that extends WorldGuard with additional region protection features, claim helpers, and configurable chat messages.

This repository is a maintained fork with updated dependencies, support for modern Paper versions, and configurable message formatting via config.yml.

Fork Highlights

• Updated for Paper 1.21.11
• Built with Java 21
• Uses WorldGuard 7.0.15
• Uses WorldEdit 7.4.1
• Supports both legacy color codes and MiniMessage
• Keeps player-facing chat messages in config.yml

Main Features

• Additional region protection behavior for liquids, fire, and explosions
• Claim command enhancements
• Automatic vertical expansion for selected regions
• Region size and block limit checks
• Command restrictions inside regions
• Extended WorldEdit wand support
• Configurable player messages and item display names

Message Formatting

Messages are configured in resources/config.yml.

Supported serializers:

• LEGACY for classic & color codes
• MINIMESSAGE for Adventure MiniMessage tags like <green>, <bold>

All player-visible chat messages are loaded from the config, so message text and styling can be changed without editing Java code.
