Locktight - Advanced Chest Protection & Security System
-Locktight transforms chest security from a simple protection mechanism into an engaging, strategic gameplay element that enhances both security-focused and raid-style server experiences.

## Overview

Locktight is a comprehensive chest protection plugin designed to provide an additional layer of security for chests within land claims while maintaining flexibility for various server types. Perfect for both claim-based and raid-style servers, Locktight offers sophisticated chest locking mechanisms, configurable trust systems, and an engaging lockpicking gameplay element.

## Key Features

### ️ Enhanced Claim Security
Locktight integrates seamlessly with GriefDefender to provide a second layer of protection beyond standard claim trusts. Players with claim access cannot automatically open locked chests unless explicitly trusted through the `/chest trust` command. This ensures that even trusted players must be specifically authorized for individual chest access.

### Intelligent Chest Locking
- Owner-Only Access: Locked chests are completely secure from unauthorized access
- Indestructible Protection: Locked chests cannot be broken by hand or destroyed by explosions
- Claim Integration: Respects existing claim boundaries and trust levels
- Configurable Permissions: Server owners can define which trust levels (CONTAINER, BUILDER, MANAGER) can lock chests within claims

### Advanced Trust Management
The plugin's sophisticated trust system allows claim owners to maintain full control over their locked chests while enabling trusted players to create their own secure storage within the claim. This creates a balanced ecosystem where security and collaboration coexist.

### Engaging Lockpicking System
Perfect for raid-style servers, Locktight features a configurable lockpicking mechanic that adds excitement and strategy to chest security:

- Multiple Tiers: Weak, Medium, Advanced, Professional, and Mythical lockpicks
- Configurable Success Rates: Server owners can balance gameplay and security
- In-Game Shop: Players can purchase lockpicks using Vault economy integration
- Reinforcement System: Chest owners can reinforce locks to reduce lockpicking success rates

### ⚙️ Flexible Configuration
Locktight adapts to various server environments:

- Claim-Based Servers: Enhanced security within existing land claim systems
- Claim-free Servers: Configurable wilderness locking and lockpicking mechanics
- Hybrid Servers: Balance between protection and raiding gameplay

## Server Types

### Claim-Based Protection Servers
For servers using GriefDefender, Locktight integrates seamlessly to provide an additional security layer that respects existing claim boundaries while adding chest-specific protection. The plugin automatically detects claim ownership, respects trust levels, and ensures that players with appropriate claim permissions (configurable) can lock chests within their trusted areas. This creates a harmonious relationship between land protection and chest security.

### ⚔️ Raid-Style Servers
Perfect for servers without land claiming systems, Locktight offers wilderness chest locking and an engaging lockpicking system that enhances raiding gameplay.

### Hybrid Servers
Servers can configure Locktight to balance protection and raiding elements, creating a dynamic environment where both security and adventure coexist. Say you have an admin claim that needs public chest access, but you want to keep certain items admin accessible only. Lock a chest, good to go.

## Technical Features

- SQLite Database: Reliable data storage for chest locks and trust relationships
- Vault Integration: Seamless economy integration for the lockpick shop
- GriefDefender API: Direct integration for optimal performance and compatibility
- Configurable Expiration: Automatic cleanup of abandoned chest locks
- Double Chest Support: Automatic handling of connected chest storage

## Benefits

- Enhanced Security: Additional protection layer beyond standard claim systems
- Balanced Gameplay: Security features that don't totally compromise server dynamics
