I'm currently thinking of adding an API to register groups support. If two players share the same group, the can access each other's areas.

Potential mods to provide support:

For example: /area shareall #classroom. is_protected would then run a callback to check whether another player may access this area.

Sounds nice. This feature can bring new ways of dividing land between clans. I was already thinking about something like this, because this mod allows you to look at the map of territories. This is currently the main issue I see on my server.

@BrunoMine Added a basic API function: d7171b8 and fad4c15

Your territory mod could register a callback as follows:

s_protect.register_on_access(function(pos, player_name, owner_name)
    if pos.z > 100 and pos.x < -5000 then
        return false -- Only the owner may access
    end
    if mymod.check_party(player_name, owner_name) and pos.y > 0 then
        return true -- Can access this position
    end
    -- Else: nil. No protection change
end)
