Residence: Basic Claim Protection Guide
Summary: Residence is used for land claims + permission management. This server enables rent/expiry and economy costs, requires at least 32 blocks between different players’ claims, and disables all Residence teleport features.
Core concepts
- Residence (claim): A protected area created after selecting corners with a wooden hoe. Actions like placing/breaking/interacting are controlled by permissions.
- Permissions: What a player can do inside a claim (e.g.
build/use/container/pvp). - Subzone: A smaller area inside a claim with its own permissions, useful for shared bases or separating public/private rooms.
Create a claim
Before you start
- Tool: A wooden hoe (use
/res toolto get the selection tool). - Cost: Creating/extending claims costs 15.625 coins per block.
- Spacing rule: Keep at least 32 blocks between different players’ claims to avoid conflicts.
Select & create
- Select two opposite corners with the wooden hoe:
- Left click: first point (green particles)
- Right click: second point (red particles)
- Create the claim:
/res create <name>Example:
/res create myhomeNote: After creation, the server will charge the cost and grant the claim a 7-day rent period (renewal required when it expires).

Permission management
By default, only the owner can build. It’s recommended to grant permissions only to trusted players—don’t enable build for everyone.
Common: add / remove members
- Add member (shortcut):
/res padd <player>(commonly used to allow building) - Remove member:
/res pdel <player>
Set permissions
Default permissions (for visitors/everyone):
/res set <permission> <true|false|remove>Per-player permissions:
/res pset <player> <permission> <true|false>Common permissions:
- build: place/break blocks
- use: use doors, crafting table, anvil, etc.
- container: open chests, furnaces, etc.
- pvp: enable PvP inside the claim
- tp: teleport-related (Residence teleport is disabled on this server, so this has no effect)
Subzones
Use subzones to separate public/private areas inside one claim.
- Stand inside the parent claim and select the sub-area with the wooden hoe.
- Create the subzone:
/res subzone <subzone-name>Subzone permissions override the parent claim. Configure them inside the subzone using /res set / /res pset.
Teleport & removal
Important: All Residence teleport features are disabled on this server (including
/res go). To return to your base, walk or use other transportation.
Remove a claim (irreversible)
- Run inside the claim:
/res remove - Confirm when prompted:
/res confirm - Refund: You will get 5.625 coins per block back.
Economy & rent
This server uses a rent system: new claims start with a 7-day rent period. If you don’t renew, the claim will be automatically removed (items will drop).
