World Guard and Towny issues

[theSodMonster]

for some unknown reason, even with permissions set up any player can build in world guarded and townied areas. i don't know whether i have written the permissions wrong or if it's something to do with tekkit. i was just wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem and if so, how they fixed it.

Same for me. Neither the default Bukkit spawn protection, nor the Worldguard plugin i installed protect an area. Although they cant destroy blocks, they can place as man as they like, leeding to griefers putting blocks in the spawn and letting everyone suffocate. The blocks then can only be destroyed by OPs.

Quite annoying.

I also tried regios and factions now, samething happens: protection only works For destroying Blocks, Not placing them. I use The Standard Tekkit 2.0 Server + permissionsbukkit and disabled wireless redstone.

The version of WorldEdit distributed with Tekkit seems to be a little out of date. Have you tried updating it?

[NormenKD]

I must admit i did not try that, BUT factions and regios are not dependent on WorldEdit.

WE is up to date, i saw on a different thread (pretty much the same topic), one post said that tekkit registers block placement differently that your standard minecraft server does so WG and towny don't know you're placing a block... therefore it doesn't stop you from placing it. I don't know if that's true or if i'm just talking out of my ass. Also i set the spawn radius to 200 in an attempt to stop non-OP player from building in the spawn since WG didn't do anything. It worked for a while but suddenly ceased to be of any use and all players could build in the spawn area again.

would be nice to have a workaround of some kind, or at least an acknowledgment from awesome devs
