Making a Claim

  • Use a golden shovel to claim land.
  • Right-click one corner, then right-click the opposite corner to create a rectangular claim.
  • Claims protect everything inside from griefing.

Claim Blocks

  • You start with a limited number of claim blocks.
  • You earn more claim blocks by playing on the server.
  • Bigger claims use more claim blocks.

Checking Claims (Stick Tool)

  • Hold a stick and right-click the ground.
  • This shows:
    • Who owns the claim
    • Where the claim boundaries are
    • Whether the land is claimed or unclaimed

Viewing Claim Boundaries

  • Hold a golden shovel to see claim borders.
  • Claim corners can be adjusted by right-clicking them with the shovel.

Trusting Other Players

  • /trust <player> – full build access
  • /accesstrust <player> – doors, buttons, levers
  • /containertrust <player> – chests and containers
  • /untrust <player> – remove access

Managing Claims

  • /claimslist – view all claims and remaining claim blocks
  • /abandonclaim – delete the claim you’re standing in
  • /abandonallclaims – delete all your claims

Important Notes

  • You can’t build or break blocks in claims you don’t own unless trusted.
  • Claim land early to protect your builds.
  • Some areas may be admin claims and cannot be modified.
