player guide

Everything here is a chat command. Press T on a keyboard, or tap the chat bubble on a tablet or console, then type it. Commands work the same on Java and Bedrock.

access:

Entry is limited for an event. If you have played here before you are already on the list. If not, email markvd@markvd.net with your in-game name and whether you play Java or Bedrock.

first things

/spawn
Go back to the spawn point. Works from anywhere.
/sethome
Save your current spot as home. Do this the moment you pick a base.
/home
Teleport back to it.
/sethome mine
Save a second, named home. You get three.
/home mine
Go to a named home.
/delhome mine
Delete one.
/back
Return to where you were before your last teleport, or where you died.
Note. Teleports have a short warmup. Standing still matters: taking damage cancels it, so you cannot escape a fight with /home.

protecting your build

golden shovel
Craft one: 1 gold ingot, 2 sticks. This is the claim tool.
right-click 2 corners
Right-click one corner of your area, then the opposite corner. The claim appears.
/trust Steve
Give someone full build access inside your claim.
/containertrust Steve
Chests and furnaces only. No building.
/accesstrust Steve
Doors, buttons and beds only.
/untrust Steve
Take it all back.
/trustlist
See who you have trusted.
/claimslist
List your claims and how many claim blocks you have left.
/abandonclaim
Stand inside it and delete it. Blocks are refunded.
Note. Claims stop other players breaking, building and looting. They do NOT stop PvP. You can still be attacked inside your own base, so build a door you can close.

getting around

/tpa Steve
Ask to teleport to someone.
/tpahere Steve
Ask someone to teleport to you.
/tpaccept
Accept a request sent to you.
/tpdeny
Refuse it.
/warp
List the public warps.
/warp creative
Jump to the creative world. Your survival inventory stays behind.

talking

/msg Steve hello
Private message.
/r hello
Reply to whoever messaged you last.
/ignore Steve
Stop seeing their messages. Use it before you use the report button.
/afk
Mark yourself away so people stop waiting on you.
/list
See who is online.
/rules
The rules, in game.

if you play on bedrock

your name
Shows with a dot in front, like .YourGamertag. That is normal and it is how commands refer to you.
typing commands
Tap the chat bubble at the top of the screen, then type the command starting with /.
coordinates
Already switched on, top left of your screen.
names with spaces
Spaces in your gamertag become underscores in game.

when something goes wrong

griefed or robbed
Tell an operator. Every block placed and broken is logged with who did it, and it can be put back.
lost your stuff
Deaths are not refunded. /back takes you to where you died, so go quickly.
stuck in the ground
/spawn will always get you out.
someone is being awful
/ignore them, then tell an operator. Screenshots help.
Note. Claim your base before you need any of this. A claim prevents the problem; a rollback only cleans it up afterwards.
