Someone asked me to add a new feature to make it easier to protect a large area. This was fairly easy to do, so I did it. Now you can issue /CHUNK PROTECT AUTO . You can then just walk around and protect chunks automagically as you walk. Issue /CHUNK PROTECT OFF to stop protecting chunks by walking around. The existing commands /CHUNK PROTECT and /CHUNK UNPROTECT still exist to let you protect and unprotect individual chunks.
