CoreProtect logs block changes, container access, item movement, kills, chat, and commands on your server. This article covers what events are tracked and how to look them up. For installation and basic commands, see the main CoreProtect article.
Action Types
CoreProtect tracks these action types in its database:
| Action | Description | Example Lookup |
|---|---|---|
+block | Block placed | /co lookup action:+block user:Steve radius:5 |
-block | Block broken | /co lookup action:-block time:1h |
+container | Item added to container | /co lookup action:+container radius:3 |
-container | Item removed from container | /co lookup action:-container user:Steve |
+inventory | Item added to inventory | /co lookup action:+inventory |
-inventory | Item removed from inventory | /co lookup action:-inventory (used for death rollbacks) |
kill | Entity killed | /co lookup action:kill radius:10 |
click | Block clicked/interacted | /co lookup action:click |
command | Command executed | /co lookup action:command user:Steve |
chat | Chat message sent | /co lookup action:chat user:Steve |
User Types
Events are attributed to different user types depending on the source:
| User | Description | Example Lookup |
|---|---|---|
<player> | A player’s username | /co lookup user:Steve |
#<entity> | An entity (e.g., #creeper) | /co lookup user:#creeper |
#fire | Fire spread | /co lookup user:#fire time:1h |
#lightning | Lightning strike | /co lookup user:#lightning |
#lava | Lava flow | /co lookup user:#lava radius:10 |
#water | Water flow | /co lookup user:#water |
#hopper | Hopper item movement | /co lookup user:#hopper radius:3 |
#tnt | TNT explosion | /co lookup user:#tnt time:30m |
Lookup Syntax
The general syntax for looking up events:
/co lookup [user:<name>] [action:<type>] [radius:<blocks>] [time:<duration>]
You can combine any of these parameters. A few practical examples:
Who broke blocks nearby in the last hour?
/co lookup action:-block radius:5 time:1hWhat did a specific player do?
/co lookup user:Steve time:1dWhat happened to items in a chest? Stand next to the chest and run:
/co lookup action:container radius:1 time:1dWho killed entities in this area?
/co lookup action:kill radius:10 time:6h
Time values use s (seconds), m (minutes), h (hours), d (days), and w (weeks). You can combine them: 1d12h means one and a half days.
