NoteLock

Are you tired of random people on your server right-clicking on your wonderful Note Block creations, messing the correct notes up ?

This mod ends your suffering by letting you lock those Note Blocks, so that right-clicks don't modify the note of a Note Block, but play the note instead. This is also useful for playing Note Blocks in Creative Mode!

Commands

Locking a Note Block:

/notelock lock <x> <y> <z>

Unlocking a Note Block:

/notelock unlock <x> <y> <z>

3 Note Blocks placed next to each other from the point of view of a Minecraft player in Creative Mode, writing in the chat the command "/notelock lock"
