\ud83d\udd07 WoolProofed
\nA Paper\/Spigot plugin that makes wool blocks act as realistic soundproofing material!<\/p>\n
WoolProofed uses advanced packet interception to block all sounds when wool is placed between the sound source and the player. Perfect for creating soundproof redstone rooms, silent storage systems, or reducing noise pollution in your builds!<\/p>\n
\u2728 Features
\n\ud83c\udfaf Complete Sound Blocking: Automatically blocks ALL block sounds (redstone, pistons, droppers, dispensers, observers, buttons, levers, doors, trapdoors, and more) when wool is in the line of sight<\/p>\n
\ud83c\udf08 All Wool Colors Supported: Works with all 16 wool colors (white, orange, magenta, light blue, yellow, lime, pink, gray, light gray, cyan, purple, blue, brown, green, red, black)<\/p>\n
\ud83d\udd2c Smart Raytrace Detection: Uses precise raytrace calculations to check every block between sound source and player<\/p>\n
\u26a1 Performance Optimized: Efficient packet interception that only blocks sounds when necessary<\/p>\n
\ud83d\udd0c Plugin-Based: Works server-side, no client mods required<\/p>\n

\ud83c\udfae Usage
\nSimply build walls, floors, or ceilings using wool blocks between yourself and any noisy redstone contraptions, farms, or machinery. The plugin automatically detects when wool blocks the direct line between a sound source and the player’s position.<\/p>\n
Example Use Cases:<\/p>\n
\ud83d\udd34 Silent redstone rooms – no more annoying clicking sounds<\/p>\n
\ud83c\udfed Quiet farm designs – build farms without the constant noise<\/p>\n
\ud83c\udfe0 Soundproof housing – keep your base peaceful<\/p>\n
\ud83c\udfb5 Recording studios – eliminate background noise for content creation<\/p>\n
\u2699\ufe0f How It Works
\nWoolProofed uses ProtocolLib to intercept sound packets before they reach the player’s client. When a sound is about to play:<\/p>\n
The plugin captures the sound packet using ProtocolLib’s packet listeners<\/p>\n
It calculates a raytrace path from the sound source to the player’s eye position<\/p>\n
Every 0.5 blocks along this path, it checks if a wool block exists<\/p>\n
If wool is detected, the sound packet is cancelled before reaching the client<\/p>\n
If no wool is found, the sound plays normally<\/p>\n
This approach is the only reliable method to block sounds in Minecraft, as it prevents the sound from ever reaching the player rather than trying to stop it after it’s already been sent.<\/p>\n
\ud83d\udd27 Technical Details
\nAPI Used: Paper API 1.21.1-R0.1-SNAPSHOT<\/p>\n
Packet Types: NAMED_SOUND_EFFECT, WORLD_EVENT<\/p>\n
Raytrace Step Size: 0.5 blocks<\/p>\n
Detection Range: Unlimited (follows Minecraft’s natural sound range)<\/p>\n
Performance Impact: Minimal – only processes sounds when players are nearby<\/p>\n
\ud83d\udc1b Known Limitations
\nRequires ProtocolLib to function<\/p>\n
Client-side sounds (like UI clicks) cannot be blocked<\/p>\n
