How does logging work? The plugin logs all block changes (place and break) in an SQLite database. Data is stored by player, action, material, coordinates, and timestamp.
Can I export the database?
Yes, the database is located at plugins/PaperProtect/database.db. You can open and analyze it using an SQLite tool like DB Browser for SQLite (https://sqlitebrowser.org/).
