WorldPreventer - World Download Preventer -----

World protection powered by smart detection.



⚠️ Early Development Notice
WorldPreventer is still in a very early stage of development. Many systems are functional, but the machine learning (ML) detection system does not ship with a trained model.
  • Do not enable ML detection unless you have trained your own model.
  • If you see the notification REQUEST_STATS observed (WorldTools signature), this likely indicates that a client is attempting to download your world.
Overview
WorldPreventer is a high-performance anti-exploit and world protection plugin designed to safeguard your server from a wide range of threats, including:
  • World downloads
  • Chunk exploitation
  • Suspicious client behavior
It combines packet-level monitoring, behavioral analysis, and adaptive responses to protect your server from malicious activity.

✨ Features
Core Protection Systems
  1. Chunk Exploit Prevention
    • Detects & prevents rapid chunk loading/unloading
    • Monitors chunk interaction patterns
    • Stops chunk boundary exploits
  2. WorldTools Blocker
    • Blocks WorldTools client functionality
    • Prevents unauthorized world downloads
    • Detects & blocks rapid join/leave patterns
  3. Deep Packet Inspection
    • Analyzes network traffic for suspicious patterns
    • Detects & blocks malicious packet sequences
    • Monitors data volume & timing anomalies
  4. Adaptive Response System
    • Dynamic threat-level scoring
    • Escalating responses (warn → kick → ban)
    • Fully configurable actions
Machine Learning Detection (Optional)
⚠️ Important: The ML system is disabled by default and ships without a trained model. Do not enable it unless you train your own.

When configured properly, the ML system provides:
  • Anomaly Detection – Spotting unusual player behavior
  • Behavioral Analysis – Learning normal server patterns
  • Real-time Scoring – Constantly evaluating actions
  • Adaptive Thresholds – Adjusting to server conditions
Tracked Features (12 total):
Chunk transitions, container interactions, movement volume, entity spawn rates, packet bursts, systematic movement, join surges, client brand, timing precision, data volume variance, interaction patterns, movement entropy.

API Example
WorldPreventer plugin = (WorldPreventer) Bukkit.getPluginManager().getPlugin("WorldPreventer");

// Get suspicion score
double score = plugin.getSuspicionScorer().getScore(player.getUniqueId());

// Add custom detection points
plugin.getSuspicionScorer().addScore(player.getUniqueId(), 10.0, "CUSTOM_EVENT");
