Ender Chest Just Ender Chest (ECJEC)
"Just shut up, an ender chest is an ender chest!"
Introduction
ECJEC is a minimalist plugin for Minecraft 1.12.2 Spigot / Paper servers.
It does just one thing: allows ender chests to be mined without the Silk Touch enchantment — breaking an ender chest drops the ender chest itself, not obsidian.

Features
- ✅ Breaking an ender chest with any tool (or even bare hands) drops an ender chest (instead of 8 obsidian)
- ✅ Fully compatible with Survival and Creative modes
- ✅ No configuration file, just drop and play
- ✅ Extremely small size, zero performance overhead
Installation
- Download
ECJEC.jar - Put the file into your server's
plugins/folder - Restart the server
- Done! Now try breaking an ender chest
Works on Spigot 1.12.2 or Paper 1.12.2 servers.
Usage
No commands or permissions required.
The plugin takes effect automatically after installation: whenever a player breaks an ender chest, the dropped item will always be an ender chest.
Configuration
This plugin has no configuration file.
If you want to toggle the feature on/off… just disable or delete the plugin (the author was too lazy to write a config).

Author's Note
This is my first attempt at developing a Bukkit plugin. The features are embarrassingly simple, and the code might be a mess — but it works.
If you encounter any BUG (like an ender chest disappearing or dropping a diamond block — unlikely), please join the QQ group printed in the server log to report it.Since this is a closed-source plugin, you can't send a PR, so just yell at me in the group.
Thanks for using!

An ender chest doesn't need Silk Touch — because it's already an ender chest.
