       stand on a protector, face in a direction and it places a new one at a set
       distance to cover protection radius.  Added /protector_show command (thanks agaran)
       Protectors and chest cannot be moved by mesecon pistons or machines.
+2.1 - Added 'protector_night_pvp' setting so night-time becomes a free for all and
+      players can hurt one another even inside protected areas (not spawn protected)
