Land Claims
Protect a base, buy claim blocks, and grant only the level of access each player actually needs.
Claim your first base
Hold a golden shovel
The claim plugin uses a golden shovel as its area-selection tool.
Select opposite corners
Right-click one corner of the intended area, then the diagonally opposite corner.
Check the boundary
Confirm that storage, doors, farms, and important redstone are inside the protected area.
Control access
Stand inside the claim before using trust commands so you modify the intended claim.
Trust levels
| Command | Access granted | Use case |
|---|---|---|
/accesstrust <player> | Buttons, levers, beds, and basic access | Visitors and public doors |
/containertrust <player> | Basic access plus containers, animals, and crafting equipment | Shared storage without build rights |
/trust <player> | Build, break, and container access | Trusted builders |
/permissiontrust <player> | Trust-management authority | Co-owners; grant carefully |
Claim management
Review
/claimlist is shown in the TomeSMP menu. GriefPrevention commonly supplies /claimslist as its command spelling.
Remove access
Use /untrust <player> while inside the claim, then verify with /trustlist.
Subdivide
Use /subdivideclaims to create smaller permission zones inside a large claim, then /basicclaims to return to normal mode.
Delete
/abandonclaim removes the claim you stand in. /abandonallclaims is much more destructive.
