Land Protection

To keep builds safe and ensure fair play, the server uses GriefPrevention in combination with CoreProtect.

Together, these systems:

  • Prevent griefing before it happens

  • Protect player builds and items

  • Allow staff to investigate and roll back damage if needed

This means your progress is protected both actively and retroactively.


Claiming Land

Land claims are how you protect your builds.

To create a claim:

  1. Hold a Golden Shovel (included in Starter Kit)

  2. Left-click one corner of the area you want to protect

  3. Right-click the opposite corner

Your claim will be outlined so you can clearly see its boundaries.

Claims extend from bedrock to the build height limit, protecting underground and sky builds.


Automatic Protection for New Players

New players receive automatic protection around their first placed chests. This ensures your items are safe even before you manually create a claim.

You can later expand or convert this protection using a Golden Shovel.


What Claims Protect

Inside your claim, other players cannot:

  • Place or break blocks

  • Open containers or use crafting stations

  • Use doors, buttons, levers, or redstone

  • Damage animals or steal mobs

  • Trample crops

  • Cause explosion damage

  • Move blocks with pistons

  • Place or break item frames, armor stands, or paintings

Claims cannot be bypassed and cannot be used to trap players.


Trusting Other Players

You control who can interact with your land.

Allow a player to build in your claim

Allow a player to use containers, crafting blocks, and animals

Allow basic interaction only (buttons, levers, beds)

Managing Claims

Resize or subdivide claims

  • Use your Golden Shovel to resize

  • Use subdivision mode to manage shared areas within a larger claim

Claim Blocks

  • You earn claim blocks automatically as you play (100 per hour)

  • Larger builds require more claim blocks

  • Claim block growth is based on playtime, not idling

Some servers allow converting currency to claim blocks. If enabled, details will be provided in-game.


CoreProtect and Rollbacks

CoreProtect allows staff to:

  • Identify who placed or broke blocks

  • Restore damaged areas

  • Roll back griefing quickly and safely

Players cannot use CoreProtect directly, but it ensures:

  • No permanent damage from griefers

  • Fast recovery if something goes wrong

  • Accountability for rule-breaking
