Limit a CoreProtect lookup to a WorldEdit selection
Applies to: CoreProtect; match the linked maintainer documentation to your installed platform and release.
Documentation checked .
An irregular incident boundary can be easier to select than describe with a radius. CoreProtect supports a WorldEdit-selection scope, but you must confirm the active selection before using it.
Follow the procedure
- Confirm that compatible WorldEdit and CoreProtect versions are installed. Read the radius parameter reference for
r:#worldeditor its documented alias on your release. - Select the intended area in the correct world using WorldEdit’s supported selection controls. Check both horizontal bounds and height; a shallow selection can omit relevant blocks.
- Run a read-only lookup such as
/co lookup t:1h r:#worldedit a:block. Keep the time and action constraints explicit even though the selection already limits space. - Compare a known action inside the selection with a known action outside it. Review the displayed locations rather than assuming the selection used by another administrator is yours.
- If results are incomplete, inspect the selection again before increasing the time range. A newly selected world or region can change the meaning of the same command.
- Record the bounds, world and query in the case notes. If a rollback is later approved, preview that exact selection and filter again before any world-changing action.
Check the result
The lookup should return relevant logged actions inside the selected volume and omit the outside test action. An empty result may indicate a wrong selection rather than absent history. Confirm the spatial scope with known examples before drawing a conclusion.
If the result is wrong
If CoreProtect does not recognize the selection, check the installed integration and permission without replacing plugins during an active investigation. Fall back to a clearly bounded radius query if appropriate. Do not run a rollback while the active selection or world remains uncertain.
