Claiming land¶
CarbonCraft uses GriefPrevention. A claim is an area only you, and the people you trust, can build in, break blocks in or open chests in. Anything outside a claim is fair game.
Claims only work in the Overworld. The Nether and End can't be claimed.
Claim blocks¶
Every claim costs claim blocks: one per block of floor area. A 10 × 10 claim costs 100 blocks. Claims reach from the sky down to bedrock, so height is free.
| How you get them | Amount |
|---|---|
| Starting amount | 100 |
| Playing | 100 per hour, up to 25,000 in total |
| Each vote tier | +100 |
Check what you have with /claimslist, or on the Player Stats head in /help.
Your first claim is automatic¶
The first time you place a chest, a small claim is created around it for free. That covers a starter base. Expand it as you build.
Claiming with the golden shovel¶
- Hold a golden shovel.
- Right-click one corner of the area you want.
- Right-click the opposite corner.
That's a claim. The smallest allowed claim is 5 blocks wide with an area of 100 blocks.
To resize a claim, hold the golden shovel, right-click a corner of your existing claim, then right-click where you want that corner to be.
To see claims, hold a stick and right-click a block. The edges of the claim there light up, along with the owner's name.
Letting friends in¶
| Command | What it allows |
|---|---|
/trust <player> |
Build, break and everything below |
/containertrust <player> |
Open chests, use furnaces, farm animals and crops |
/accesstrust <player> |
Use buttons, levers, doors and beds |
/untrust <player> |
Remove someone's trust |
/trustlist |
See who you've trusted in this claim |
Stand inside the claim when you run these.
Removing a claim¶
Stand in the claim and type /abandonclaim. You get all of its claim blocks back.
/abandonallclaims
This removes every claim you own at once. Everything you built becomes unprotected.
Good habits¶
- Put your shop chests inside your claim. An unclaimed shop can be robbed by anyone.
- Claim before you build. Not after.
- Don't set homes inside other players' land; it's against the rules.
