About this Mod

ChestGuard – Advanced Chest Protection & Secure Transfer System (Forge)
ChestGuard is a high-level chest protection and management mod built for Minecraft Forge multiplayer servers. It provides structured ownership, granular permission control, secure item transfers, real-time interaction alerts, explosion-proof storage, and full chest tracking.
This is infrastructure-level protection — not a basic lock command.
🔐 Core Protection Features
✔ Lock & Name Chests
/chestlock
Locks the targeted chest and allows assigning a custom name.
✔ Unlock Chests
/chestunlock
Removes protection and ownership from the targeted chest.
✔ Detailed Chest Information
/chestdetails
Displays:
- Lock status (Locked / Unlocked)
- Exact coordinates
- Owner (UUID-based)
- Custom chest name
✔ Live Chest Info (Look-Based Display)
When looking at a chest, players automatically see:
- Coordinates
- Lock status
- Owner (if locked)
- Custom chest name
No command required.
💥 Explosion-Proof Protection
Locked chests are immune to:
- TNT explosions
- Creeper explosions
- Any explosion-based damage source
Protected storage remains intact in hostile environments.

When a locked chest is accessed, the owner is notified instantly.
If a player removes items, the owner receives:
- Player name

- Quantity
- Action type
If a player adds items, the owner receives:
- Player name
- Item deposited
- Quantity
- Action type
Every inventory change is tracked and logged for full accountability.
🔁 Secure Item Transfer System
✔ Select Items
/itemtake
Marks items for secure transfer.
✔ Transfer Items
/itemtransfer
If transferring to another player’s locked chest:
- A 30-second approval window is initiated
- The target chest owner must respond
✔ Approve or Reject Transfer

Confirms or cancels the pending transfer request.

Chest Guard server crashes on startup – what to do?
Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.21.11). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.
Is Chest Guard compatible with fabric and forge?
Chest Guard officially supports fabric, forge for Minecraft 1.21.11. Note: Forge and Fabric mods are NOT cross-compatible – pick one loader and stick with it. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with Chest Guard – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Chest Guard consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
