CRAFTBOOK-2673 - Reported by Stacelin

Are there any plans for future builds that will allow pipes to work correctly with Lockette? It seems players are able to snatch items out of someones locked chest with these pipes. It's a great feature and has a lot of potential, seems a terrible situation we've got ourselves into.

The issue with this is, the protection plugins all require a player to check if they're allowed. Because pipes don't have a player attached to them, this isn't too possible

I assumed it would all boil down to player interacts. Thanks anyways!

I guess this could be possible in a way.. But it'd require the 'pipes require signs' option to be on, and it'd just check the chests perms when the sign is placed. But then, there is nothing stopping them rewiring the pipes.

At present, it is not permitted to place hoppers next to lockette-protected chests belonging to somebody else. Would it not be possible to do the same for sticky pistons? I can't think of any other reason to want to place a sticky piston facing somebody else's chest - and this would solve a serious security issue.

Hmm, disallowing placement could make sense, instead of checking on usage.

Thanks for the idea, I'll look into implementing that.

I have added checks for this when placing the sign. Therefore this requires the 'require sign' option to be enabled.
