Gamemode Locks
Gamemode lock is a feature added by SWPM that allows hosts to designate specific areas with a set gamemode.
- This gamemode can differ from the default setting of the world or server
- This gamemode can be set to apply to a specific dimension, or even a specific area within a dimension.
- This gamemode lock will automatically change the gamemode of any player that crosses into the area/dimension.
