Create: Back Off!
by juyoh
Create: Back Off! is a NeoForge addon for the Create mod that stops entities and players from changing blocks in protected Create setups.
What it does
Keep entities back from Create contraptions and machines, so mobs cannot grief automated builds. Create: Back Off! also blocks players from altering the blocks inside a protected area, which helps when a build is shared on a server.
The addon is built around Create's automation and interactivity. A new items block is added, and entities are kept out of the protected space. It runs on client and server, so every player on a server that runs it needs it too. Files are published for NeoForge only, for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, with 1.0.3 for 1.21.1 as the latest file. The code is open source under the MIT License.

Adjusted flight
Flight within protected zones is adjusted and can be applied automatically, so builders can move without breaking the rules.
Items block
A new block joins the mod and works with Create's automation and interactivity.
