Important Notes

⏹️ Borders & Reset Zones

Details of the world border and reset zones for each dimension are listed below. You can also view on BlueMap indicated by the red lines along with a reset boundary indicated by yellow lines in the Overworld and The End.

Overworld

+/- 5000z blocks from 0,0 in the North and South.
+/- 7000x blocks from 0,0 in the West and East.
Expansion is possible in the near future.
⚠️ Overworld resets past +/- 5000x blocks from 0,0 East and West as needed until expansion.
For the first time this season, the overworld contains a reset zone (or resource area) of about 2000 blocks wide on the East and West end of the world where you can gather resources without worrying about limited supply or destruction of land.
Only builds within 5000 blocks in any direction from 0,0 are not affected by the reset.

The Nether

+/- 10000 blocks from 0,0 in all directions.
No reset or expansion planned.

The End

+/- 25000 blocks from 0,0 in all directions.
Reset boundary may extend in the future, but no border expansion is planned.
⚠️ The End resets as needed past 2000 blocks from 0,0 throughout the season.

✅ Quality of Life Provisions

We strive for a pure survival experience without involving the use of fly or self teleport commands while preserving vanilla mechanics for technical players by running Fabric. However, we do add certain mods to improve player experience without straying too far from vanilla game play based on the community’s input.
We highly recommend reading our to see what provisions were made on this server.

💻 Client Side Mods

While no mods are required to join our server, we have some client side mods that are integrated with the server. If you need help installing client side mods, staff or other players may be able to assist you.

🗃️ Resource Packs

Server Side Resource Pack

We use a resource pack to display custom items in game that can be enabled when you join our server. You may opt out if you do not want to see our custom items.
If you do have our resource pack enabled from the server, one of the things you may notice is increased loading times when joining and leaving our server. Using the mod may help mitigate the issue.

Client Side Resource Pack

Alternatively, you can use our client-side resource pack which can be found on Discord within the pinned post in channel. Simply drag the zip file into the resource pack folder and select it to load in game.
Be sure to disable our server-side resource pack to avoid unnecessary loading times. Unlike our server-side resource pack where it automatically updates when new custom items are added, you will have to manually update yourself when a new version is released on Discord.

Kono Coins and Custom Items

Many of the wearable custom items located in city hall can be redeemed by obtaining Kono coins through jobs or competitive events.
Jobs - Complete jobs listed in the city hall by the end of the month, and you will receive Kono coins based on the number of jobs completed at the beginning of next month.
Competitive Events - Hosted generally on weekends, is another way to get Kono coins by winning.
Once you obtained enough coins (minimum of 3), you can redeem a custom wearable item by asking an admin in game or opening an admin ticket if no admin is available in game.
Each redemption cost 3 Kono coins which will allow you spin for a tier ranging from Tier 1 (common) to Tier 7 (legendary). After that, you can then choose an item from the same tier or lower if desired.
For other custom items not found in the city hall, they can be obtained through various events, sold in shops, or found in the wild.

⌨️ Commands

For a full list of commands, you can use /help or /help <page> in game.
/calc nether - Get coords converted from Overworld to Nether.
/calc overworld - Get coords converted from Nether to Overworld.
/coordshud - toggles coords feature in your action bar
/msg , /tell , or /w followed by <player> <message> to message another player
/seed - obtain seed for the server
/silencestick or /st - toggles the stick being held into silence stick (hit a mob to silence them)
/sit - sit on almost any block in game
/spark ping - displays your ping to the server
/spark tps - displays ticks per second
/trigger duraPing - customize your personal durability ping setting.
/trigger if_invisible - makes an item frame closest to you invisible

Spawn Rules

Note - This section is subject to change.

🗺️ Spawn Area Map

The map of Spawn area can now be viewed on BlueMap. Only areas within the highlighted green lines are subject to spawn rules while the outer light blue lines show how far spawn can expand in the future.

Spawn currently consist of five areas with certain restrictions.

Future Spawn Point
Reserved only for Spawn builds. Located in an island at the middle of spawn.
Reserved
For spawn use. Cannot build without explicit permission from admins.
Mixed-Use Area - Can contain builds for multiple purposes such as shops, spawn, or role-play.
⚠️ Ask an admin for permission if building within 100 blocks of 0,0 (crafting table portal).
Role Play Area
⚠️ Ask an admin before building there due to specific theme or build standards.
Shopping District
⚠️ Reserved mostly for shop builds. Ask an admin if building anything other than shops.

⛔ Other Build Restrictions

Farms, Breeders, and Villager Trading Halls - 🚫 Strictly Prohibited
Large Personal Bases - 🚫 Generally Not Allowed

🏗️ Building in Spawn

Currently, players can build in a small plot without requiring permission from staff as long as it is not in a restricted area and the purpose of the build is reasonable.
Some examples of a reasonable purpose build include but not limited to:
Small personal home base
Small or Medium Sized Shops (see below)
For any other builds or questions, simply ask an admin or open an admin ticket to see if you can build there.

🏪 Shops

You can claim an open space or plot in spawn and build a small or medium size shop as long as it is not in a restricted area. You can also ask an admin for advice regarding where to build.
Please note
For shops larger than 2 chunks (or 32x32 blocks), we advise opening an admin ticket to find the best place your build, or if adjustments to the area are needed prior to building.
Some plots will have signs with additional instructions or advice.
You should only claim plots when you are ready to build. Other players can claim your spot if you have not started within 2 weeks.
Once your shop is set up, it is recommended to post your shop in the channel to promote your shop or post updates. The page will be updated by an admin.
We generally do not have restrictions on what you can sell or how much you can sell it for. However, if the open market becomes toxic or unfriendly, staff may take action when necessary.

⚠️ Disclaimer When Building

Large plot claims - For large builds, please open ask an admin or open an admin support ticket for inquiry.
Right of Way - Builds at spawn are not guaranteed to stay throughout season. For various reasons (such as being in the right of way for roads or official spawn builds) we may ask you to move your build somewhere else when necessary.
Unfit/Unauthorized Builds - If your build(s) are deemed unfit or inappropriate for the surrounding area, or was built without necessary authorization from admins, we will ask you to modify your build or have it removed when necessary.
👉 When building something unusual or questionable for spawn, it is best to ask staff or an admin regarding what and where you are building beforehand to avoid this situation.

🏚️ Abandoned Builds

Build(s) in spawn are considered abandoned when:
Leaving our Discord without notifying staff of any plans to return or remain on server.
Shops remain out of stock a really long time after being contacted by staff.
Builds are left unfinished without any progress for a long period of time (30 days or longer).
When it is considered abandoned, another player may reclaim the build or have it replaced with another build by request or lottery if multiple players are interested in that particular plot.

Personal Land Claims

Land claims are on a first-come first-serve basis, and are completely done in game.
To officially claim land, simply start building, or place signs or markings around the area. Make sure there is not another build or claim nearby, and it is outside of spawn district area for larger land claims.
Please give plenty or reasonable amount of space if you are in sight of another player’s build that you want to claim. If you want to build closer, ask the owner to see if they are okay with it.
Note: If building within or close to spawn, a smaller amount of space between builds is expected and is considered reasonable compared to claims further outside of spawn.

Disputes

If you have a dispute regarding land claims, attempt to resolve by contacting the other player first. If this cannot be resolved or if the other player doesn’t respond within a reasonable time, open staff support ticket so we can take a look.

Land Claim Etiquette

Large Land Claims
Please only claim the amount of land that is reasonable and necessary. If you need to claim a lot of land, it is recommended that you are far away from spawn or another area that is populated with builds to avoid issues in the future. In order to make larger claims, start small from your initial claim, and then expand or build out as you go. You can also consult with staff if you need help.
Perimeters
Please contact an admin or open an admin ticket before starting one. It also must be at least 1000 blocks away from spawn.
Villager Trading Halls (or breeders)
Consider using our Public Villager Trading Hall available to the community to reduce lag, but if you would rather build your own, we suggest building at least 225 blocks away from any base including yours so that it does not cause unnecessary server performance issues. It also must be at least 1000 blocks away from spawn.

Abandoned Builds

If you leave our Discord without notifying staff of any plans of returning, we will assume that your builds are abandoned, and other players may reclaim the abandoned land or build if interested.
If you are interested in claiming land or build that is believed to be abandoned, please open a staff support ticket and we can take a look. Please do not take or destroy anything that is not yours until you are approved for the reclaim.

Mob Switch

This server contains mob switches which can disable hostile mobs from spawning with a very few exceptions.
This feature helps in specific situations where hostile mobs can hinder progress, but it is not meant for long-term use.
In general, mob switch needs to remain off by default, allowing mobs to spawn to preserve the vanilla game play. If you need to turn on the mob switch which disables mob spawning, please follow these steps.
Both are located in the Nether roof at -320, 219 for Overworld mobs and -849, 120 for The Nether mobs.

1. Ask online players if they are okay with you turning it on and state how long you will need it on for.

If a player is AFK at a mob farm, please contact them on Discord. Otherwise do not turn it on.
If a player objects, state how long you will need it for.

2. If you turn on the mob switch, please turn it off when you are done or before logging out.

Please alert other players in chat when the mob switch has changed so there are no surprises.

How to check if the mob switch is on?

Toggle /log mobcaps in game. Then check the player tab for the first number on the very bottom row.
In the Overworld, if it is at least 950 and higher than the denominator (e.g. 950/800), then it is on.
In The Nether, if it is at least 450 and higher than the denominator (e.g. 450/400), then it is on.

Important notes

As a courtesy, please alert other players in chat when the mob switch is being turned on or off.
Players assume risk of death from hostile mobs if not at a safe location when AFK, whether it is on or off.
Players have priority to turn the mob switch off if it has on for too long, about to AFK at a mob farm, or was left on by default after server restart.

Lag Management & Courtesy

Please be considerate of other players to not cause lag during busy times. In accordance to 4️⃣, staff reserves the right to take any actions including killing entities, stopping devices, or disconnecting a player that is believed to be causing negative game play experience for others.
Please follow these tips below that will help keep the best player experience for others.

📚 Villager Trading Halls

We recommend using the Public Villager Trading Hall that is free to use.
If you really need to build your own, it must be at least 1000 blocks away from spawn, and preferably 225 blocks away from anyone’s base so that it does not cause server performance issues.
Please do not leave villager breeders running unless you are actively utilizing them. Staff reserves the right to remove excess villagers if deemed necessary to reduce lag.

🔥 Chunk Loaders

Building a chunk loader requires opening a Staff ticket.
We need to know where you are building it in case we need to stop it for various reasons.

🏭 Farms, Dupers, and Redstone Machines

Leaving any duper(s) running unattended or while AFK is prohibited.
Be mindful of your farm and duper collection systems as an overflow of entities can cause massive amounts of lag. Having a proper and working disposal system for excess items will prevent such lag.
Avoid cramming entities in a small area that result in collisions (common in chickens, cows, and sheeps) which can cause lag spikes.
If possible, any machine or farm should use efficient designs to reduce unnecessary lag.
