How to play

No mods required. Resource packs are optional. The live map is an overview, not a world download.

What to do after spawn

1. You land in the terminal. Read the four signs at the info desk: rules, money, land, leave. You start with 500 Credits and the /kit starter pack (bread, wood tools, torches, steak).
2. Buy what you need. West gallery signs or /shop — Starter, Food, Farm, Blocks, Ores, Combat. Keep some Credits for claim blocks later.
3. Leave the hub. Walk into a gate, or type /wild. The airport itself cannot be broken or claimed.
4. Claim a rectangle with a golden shovel before you dump chests in the open. Unclaimed land is fair game.
5. Set a bed or a home. Free beds at Horizon Inn (/warp hotel), or /sethome on land you own / are trusted on.

Daily pocket money: /kit daily — 24 Cr, once per 24 hours, tied to your account.

How to claim land

Claims are rectangles in the Overworld. Inside your claim, strangers cannot break blocks, open chests, kill your animals, use buttons, or pearl in. Nether and The End cannot be claimed — those hubs are staff-protected only.

Tools

Make a claim

1. Hold a golden shovel. Chat will tell you how many claim blocks you still have.
2. Right-click the first corner of the land you want. You should see a gold flash.
3. Walk to the opposite corner and right-click again. The rectangle between those two points becomes yours from Y=40 to the sky.
4. Look at the outline. Gold = yours. If it fails, the area is too small, overlaps someone else, or sits inside the airport.

Minimum size: 5 blocks wide and 100 blocks of area (for example 10×10). A 2×2 dirt hut will not claim.

Resize

Stand at an existing gold corner with the shovel, right-click that corner, then right-click the new corner. The claim grows or shrinks. You cannot resize someone else’s land.

First chest (temporary)

If you place a chest on unclaimed wilderness, the server may wrap a small claim around it so you are not robbed in the first minutes. That chest-claim expires in 7 days if you never expand it with the shovel. Expand it. Do not rely on it as a base.

Claim blocks (your budget)

Area costs claim blocks: a 20×20 plot uses 400 blocks. You do not spend Credits to claim — you spend this budget.

Example: 20 extra blocks cost 40 Cr. A 16×24 house lot is 384 blocks.

Where you cannot claim

• The airport, runways, and the public strip of Airport Ave (road, lights, hedges).
• Nether and End — claims are off in those worlds.
• On top of another player’s claim.

Abandon, expire, stuck

Unused tiny claims can expire after 14 days. If you vanish for 60 days, your claims can expire (large / paid-up claims are kept longer). Come back, or tell staff if a build should be preserved.

Let friends in

Trust is per claim. Stand inside the claim, then run the command. Higher trust includes everything below it.

/sethome only works where you have access trust (your claim, or land someone trusted you on). The hub is not a homesite — use the Inn.

Airport Ave lots

North of the runway is a boulevard with 17 grass lots (16×24). The street, sidewalks, and hedges stay public — you build on the grass pad only.

• Lots are held by staff until sold. You cannot shovel-claim a “For sale” pad.
• Price is set per deal, typically 500–800 Cr for the location.
• Transfer spends 384 claim blocks from you. A brand-new player with 400 starting blocks can buy one lot.
• Pay first with /pay, then staff runs the transfer. Message MadMagister or EliasBrat in-game with the lot number from the sign.

After you own it: build, /trust friends, /sethome. Do not break the avenue lights or road — WorldGuard will stop you.

Credits, shops, stalls

The currency is Credits (Cr). Your balance sits in the TAB footer and in /bal.

Official shops

Signs in the west gallery, or /shop. Categories: Starter, Food, Farm, Blocks, Ores, Combat. Prices move a little with supply and demand. The hub will not print infinite money for cobblestone or farm dumps — sell those to players.

Player market stalls

1. Find an empty stall in the market hall. Right-click the rent sign — 35 Cr for 7 days, one stall per player.
2. Look at the chest, then /qs create <price> (or the QuickShop prompt) to put items up for sale.
3. Shoppers right-click the chest. You cannot break the stall pad; expiry empties it.

Direct trade and auction

• /trade <name> — both sides confirm. Use this in the field.
• /auction — list items. Listing keeps a 5% deposit.
• /order / /orders — post or fill buy orders.
• /pay <name> <amount> — 10 second cooldown. Credits only; no “trust trades” in chat.

Gates, warps, Nether, bed

Walk inside a gate to board. Commands work from anywhere.

Apron Arena is on free land east of the airport (81×81 fight floor). Lobby and stands are PvP-off. The pit is PvP-on; items drop on death. Combat still blocks teleports for 15 seconds.

/wild drops you on safe ground in a ring 1,500–8,000 blocks from spawn (inside the 10 km world border). First trip is free; then a 10 minute cooldown. Move during the teleport and it cancels.

Nether: Gate F or the hall portal. You arrive in an enclosed station, not a lava roof. Portal / /spawn back. You cannot GriefPrevention-claim the Nether; the station is WorldGuard.

Horizon Inn: west wing, 12 beds, /warp hotel. Sleep and AFK there. Mob spawning is off.

Return anytime with /spawn. Ask to teleport with /tpa <name> / /tpahere.

Rules

1. Do not grief claims or the hub. Wilderness you did not claim is survival — protect it or lose it.
2. The airport cannot be broken or claimed. Same for the Avenue road.
3. Trade in Credits. No scams, no dupes, no real-money pay-to-win.
4. One account per player. No alt farming of daily Credits or starter cash.
5. Cheats (x-ray, fly, reach, nuker) get you banned. Staff use logs, not the public map, as proof.

To report: screenshot, the other player’s name, and about when it happened. Staff: MadMagister, EliasBrat. In-game /rules is the short copy of this list.
