Lab Wars

2023-10-20T10:06:01Z

CraydorGM: /* Lab Wars History */

Lab Wars is a collaborative, team-based event where every player on the server is recruited, at random, by one of four labs. Players generate '''revenue''' for their lab through many activites on the server (selling/running/supplying chems, arresting players, fishing, killing mobs in [[The Pit]], competing in events, and lab investments). All generated revenue is tracked and the top players and labs can be seen in the Lab Wars leaderboard ('''/lw''').

== The Labs ==
The first time you do something on the server that generates lab revenue, you will be recruited by one of the active labs at random. Once you're in a lab, your lab's symbol will show next to your name in your chat messages, and you'll get access to your lab's chat tag and chat channel ('''/lc <message>'''').

Each lab has its own channel in our Discord and in-game, and you'll get access to your lab's channel as long as your Discord account is linked ('''/link''' in Spawn).

== Lab Elimination ==
Starting at Phase One, the lab that is in last place at the end of each phase is eliminated, until only one lab remains at the end of the event. Each player's original lab is tracked, and players who stay in their original lab until the end earn greater rewards.

Phase Zero is a safe phase, all labs are safe from elimination until the end of the first phase. Phase Zero is used to work out any balancing issues, allow time for players to get assigned to labs, and allow newer players or players unfamiliar with Lab Wars to get acclimated to it.

== Lab Revenue, Dividends, and Investments ==
Lab Revenue is the core of Lab Wars. Revenue is a form of points that lab members earn by doing various server activities, including selling/running/supplying chems, arresting players, fishing, killing mobs in The Pit, competing in events, and through lab investments ('''/lw invest'''). All revenue is tracked, and the Lab Wars leaderboard (/lw) shows which players have generated the most revenue for their lab, as well as overall. At the end of each Lab Wars day, phase, and at the end of the event, the top players in each lab and overall earn additional rewards.

Along with position-based rewards, '''lab dividends''' are paid out at the end of each Lab Wars day to every player who has generated lab revenue that day. Dividends are money rewards paid to players based on their revenue generated and their lab's place at the end of that day.

Similar to dividends, '''lab investments''' pay out at the end of each day based on your lab's place. You can directly invest money into your lab with '''/lw invest <amount>''', up to $1,000,000 per day, to instantly generate lab revenue. At the end of the lab wars day, you earn a return on your investment based on your lab's place that day.

== Chem Bounties and Lab Selling Boosts ==
Bounty chems are chosen through bidding in '''/lw shop'''. Once a bounty chem is selected, selling this chem will generate anywhere from 1.25x more lab revenue and reward 25% more prestige progress. A bounty will last until a certain amount has been sold, or a time limit is hit, and then the next bounty is selected.

Along with chem bounties, every hour the lab that is in first place on the daily leaderboard at the moment gets a '''lab selling boost''' - a 10% boost to chem selling prices and prestige progress for all players in the lab. They keep this boost as long as they're in first place; if a different lab is in first place at the start of the next hour, the boost gets moved to that lab.

== Events and Revenue Boosts ==
Events are hosted throughout Lab Wars that offer a chance to earn huge amounts of revenue. They're usually hosted on evenings and weekends - keep an eye on our Discord for announcements.

Revenue can be boosted by Revenue Boosters. Players can purchase them (from the store or with Revenue Booster Fragments in '''/fragments'''), and they can be started when the global revenue goal is hit.

== Daily Shop and Revenue Milestones ==
The Daily Shop is a way to "spend" your lab revenue. Spending your revenue does not remove from your or your lab's overall revenue - think of it as a separate balance that's increased by generating lab revenue. The shop has seven items each day, offering a mixture of personal, lab-wide, and global benefits. Your revenue balance resets at the end of each phase, so be sure to use it!

== Revenue Milestones ==
As you earn revenue, you'll earn revenue milestone rewards. There are a set of milestones for each day, each phase, and overall. Hitting milestones by generating lab revenue grants rewards that will help both yourself and your lab. Milestones are enabled starting on Phase One.

== Drafts ==
When a lab goes bankrupt and is eliminated from Lab Wars, its members are absorbed by the remaining labs. While the re-assignment is random for most players, the top players of the eliminated lab will be re-assigned by draft.

At the end of each phase, the remaining labs will be asked to make a priority order of the top players of the eliminated lab, based on who they'd like most in their lab. These players will then be assigned to their new labs based on this order.

== Lab Chat ==
Each lab has a private chat channel in-game, removing the need for players to create their own lab group chats. You can speak in your lab's chat channel with the '''/lc''' command. These chats are linked to the Discord channels for each lab similar to how the '''#ingame-chat''' channel works. Make sure you '''/link''' your Discord account in Spawn to get access.

= Lab Wars History =

Rules

2023-09-30T03:58:46Z

CraydorGM: /* General Rules */

<div style="float:right">__TOC__</div>
MCLabs strives to create an environment that is welcoming and enjoyable for every player. In order to accomplish that, we have strict rules that must be followed by all players.

#: '''*''' This includes joining group chats you have not been given permission to join.
#: '''*''' This also includes particular vanilla mechanics that require going out of your way to gain information (using F3/debug data such as entity count, "pie-ray" (using the F3 debug menu pie chart to locate bases) or any other debug information.)
# Chat Guidelines:
#: '''2a:''' Do not flood chat - try to merge short, subsequent chat messages into the same line.
#: '''2b:''' Take one-on-one arguments and discussions into private messages (/msg) or group chat (/group).

# No begging for free items, ranks, money, etc.
# Alternate accounts are not allowed.
#: '''*''' Tell us if you have someone else playing on your IP.
#: '''*''' Be prepared to verify with an admin.
# Combat logging (logging out to avoid PvP) and police logging (logging out to avoid police) are not allowed.
#: '''*''' Going on runner duty/taking jobs and switching servers without cooldown are considered combat logging.
# Scamming is '''not''' allowed.
#: '''7a:''' Agreements made on the server are responsible to the people involved in the agreement to have evidence of. Agreements that are made and not screenshot as evidence will not be investigated by Staff and will be assumed to be void. Proof from both parties agreeing to it is required to uphold the agreement.
#: '''7b:''' Agreements for "investments" (e.g. player-run "coins", "stocks", etc.) or money loans taken with the intent of wagering the money are not protected under this rule. Players will be punished for not fulfilling their end of such agreements, but we will not recover any owed debts.

# You may not repeat the same message in a single advert.
# The text around your advertisement must be directly related to the item, service, faction, etc. that you are promoting.
# Advertising an unrelated message and then including what you otherwise would be allowed to advertise is still against the rules. (ex. Goodchum is big smell, buy boss souls at A1, or advertising something that doesn’t have to do with buying/selling or a service/feature on the server)

CraydorGM: /* Police Rules */

<div style="float:right">__TOC__</div>
MCLabs strives to create an environment that is welcoming and enjoyable for every player. In order to accomplish that, we have strict rules that must be followed by all players. There are no exceptions to these rules, and trying to find loopholes to get away with borderline violations will result in applicable punishment.

== General Rules ==
'''Please note that aside from these rules, staff have the ability to take action with their own discretion in necessary situations.'''

# No hacking, cheating, or exploiting. Ask a staff member if you believe something may be an exploit.
#: '''*''' This includes abusing vanilla mechanics/abilities to achieve a result which would be considered an unfair advantage (block glitching, seeing through chunks/blocks, etc.)
#: '''*''' This includes taking advantage of quirks and unintended side effects of custom mechanics with the goal of getting an advantage not intended by that mechanic, such as placing other blocks to destroy deepslate with a Jackhammer.
#: '''*''' This includes joining group chats you have not been given permission to join.
#: '''*''' This also includes particular vanilla mechanics that require going out of your way to gain information (using F3/debug data such as entity count, "pie-ray" (using the F3 debug menu pie chart to locate bases) or any other debug information.)
# Chat Guidelines:
#: '''2a:''' Do not flood chat - try to merge short, subsequent chat messages into the same line.
#: '''2b:''' Take one-on-one arguments and discussions into private messages (/msg) or group chat (/group).
#: '''2c:''' English only in main chat.
#: '''2d:''' Do not post malicious links in chat. Links to popular sites (e.g. YouTube, Twitch, etc.) are permitted.
#: '''2e:''' Full-caps are allowed, as long as the message follows all other rules.
# Don't be an asshole; use common sense.
#: '''3a:''' Treat all other players with respect. Banter/trash talking is allowed but you may be warned to stop if it becomes excessive.
#: '''3b:''' Excessive hate will not be tolerated and will result in a mute without warning.
#: '''3c:''' Not all rules are explicitly listed here; each situation is unique and will be handled under staff interpretation.
# No begging for free items, ranks, money, etc.
# Alternate accounts are not allowed.
#: '''*''' Tell us if you have someone else playing on your IP.
#: '''*''' Be prepared to verify with an admin.
# Combat logging (logging out to avoid PvP) and police logging (logging out to avoid police) are not allowed.
#: '''*''' Going on mule duty and switching servers are considered combat logging.
# Scamming is '''not''' allowed.
#: '''7a:''' Agreements made on the server are responsible to the people involved in the agreement to have evidence of. Agreements that are made and not screenshot as evidence will not be investigated by Staff and will be assumed to be void. Proof from both parties agreeing to it is required to uphold the agreement.
# Do not impersonate police (wearing blue armour and/or acting like police).
# Some AFK machines/mechanics are not allowed:
#: '''9a:''' AFK fishing machines/fish farms are not allowed.
#: '''9b:''' Cobblestone generators are not allowed.
#: '''9c:''' Any macro/mod that allows you to automate actions is not allowed (holding down keys/mouse is allowed).

# You may not repeat the same message in a single advert.
# The text around your advertisement must be directly related to the item, service, faction, etc. that you are promoting.
# Advertising an unrelated message and then including what you otherwise would be allowed to advertise is still against the rules. (ex. Goodchum is big smell, buy boss souls at A1, or advertising something that doesn’t have to do with buying/selling or a service/feature on the server)

Lab Wars

2023-08-28T02:10:19Z

CraydorGM: /* Lab Wars IV */

Lab Wars is a collaborative, team-based event where every player on the server is recruited, at random, by one of four labs. Players generate '''revenue''' for their lab through many activites on the server (selling/running/supplying chems, arresting players, fishing, killing mobs in [[The Pit]], competing in events, and lab investments). All generated revenue is tracked and the top players and labs can be seen in the Lab Wars leaderboard ('''/lw''').

== The Labs ==
The first time you do something on the server that generates lab revenue, you will be recruited by one of the active labs at random. Once you're in a lab, your lab's symbol will show next to your name in your chat messages, and you'll get access to your lab's chat tag and chat channel ('''/lc <message>'''').

Each lab has its own channel in our Discord and in-game, and you'll get access to your lab's channel as long as your Discord account is linked ('''/link''' in Spawn).

== Lab Elimination ==
Starting at Phase One, the lab that is in last place at the end of each phase is eliminated, until only one lab remains at the end of the event. Each player's original lab is tracked, and players who stay in their original lab until the end earn greater rewards.

Phase Zero is a safe phase, all labs are safe from elimination until the end of the first phase. Phase Zero is used to work out any balancing issues, allow time for players to get assigned to labs, and allow newer players or players unfamiliar with Lab Wars to get acclimated to it.

== Lab Revenue, Dividends, and Investments ==
Lab Revenue is the core of Lab Wars. Revenue is a form of points that lab members earn by doing various server activities, including selling/running/supplying chems, arresting players, fishing, killing mobs in The Pit, competing in events, and through lab investments ('''/lw invest'''). All revenue is tracked, and the Lab Wars leaderboard (/lw) shows which players have generated the most revenue for their lab, as well as overall. At the end of each Lab Wars day, phase, and at the end of the event, the top players in each lab and overall earn additional rewards.

Along with position-based rewards, '''lab dividends''' are paid out at the end of each Lab Wars day to every player who has generated lab revenue that day. Dividends are money rewards paid to players based on their revenue generated and their lab's place at the end of that day.

Similar to dividends, '''lab investments''' pay out at the end of each day based on your lab's place. You can directly invest money into your lab with '''/lw invest <amount>''', up to $1,000,000 per day, to instantly generate lab revenue. At the end of the lab wars day, you earn a return on your investment based on your lab's place that day.

== Chem Bounties and Lab Selling Boosts ==
Bounty chems are chosen through bidding in '''/lw shop'''. Once a bounty chem is selected, selling this chem will generate anywhere from 1.25x more lab revenue and reward 25% more prestige progress. A bounty will last until a certain amount has been sold, or a time limit is hit, and then the next bounty is selected.

Along with chem bounties, every hour the lab that is in first place on the daily leaderboard at the moment gets a '''lab selling boost''' - a 10% boost to chem selling prices and prestige progress for all players in the lab. They keep this boost as long as they're in first place; if a different lab is in first place at the start of the next hour, the boost gets moved to that lab.

== Events and Revenue Boosts ==
Events are hosted throughout Lab Wars that offer a chance to earn huge amounts of revenue. They're usually hosted on evenings and weekends - keep an eye on our Discord for announcements.

Revenue can be boosted by Revenue Boosters. Players can purchase them (from the store or with Revenue Booster Fragments in '''/fragments'''), and they can be started when the global revenue goal is hit.

== Daily Shop and Revenue Milestones ==
The Daily Shop is a way to "spend" your lab revenue. Spending your revenue does not remove from your or your lab's overall revenue - think of it as a separate balance that's increased by generating lab revenue. The shop has seven items each day, offering a mixture of personal, lab-wide, and global benefits. Your revenue balance resets at the end of each phase, so be sure to use it!

== Revenue Milestones ==
As you earn revenue, you'll earn revenue milestone rewards. There are a set of milestones for each day, each phase, and overall. Hitting milestones by generating lab revenue grants rewards that will help both yourself and your lab. Milestones are enabled starting on Phase One.

== Drafts ==
When a lab goes bankrupt and is eliminated from Lab Wars, its members are absorbed by the remaining labs. While the re-assignment is random for most players, the top players of the eliminated lab will be re-assigned by draft.

At the end of each phase, the remaining labs will be asked to make a priority order of the top players of the eliminated lab, based on who they'd like most in their lab. These players will then be assigned to their new labs based on this order.

== Lab Chat ==
Each lab has a private chat channel in-game, removing the need for players to create their own lab group chats. You can speak in your lab's chat channel with the '''/lc''' command. These chats are linked to the Discord channels for each lab similar to how the '''#ingame-chat''' channel works. Make sure you '''/link''' your Discord account in Spawn to get access.

= Lab Wars History =
Lab Wars was first ran from November 3rd, 2022 and lasted through November 29th, 2022 and was the first iteration of Lab Wars. It marked a historic moment in MCLabs history and changed some of the scope of how MCLabs operates.

== Lab Wars I ==
From November 3rd through November 29th of 2022, Royal Diamond Lab, Crimson Quadri Lab, Emerald Orb Lab, and Amber Delta Lab competed to take home the win for the first ever Lab Wars Event. The standings ended as follows:

- '''First Place Winner:''' Royal Diamond Lab ($428,253,500 overall revenue generated)

- '''Third Place:''' Emerald Orb Lab ($112,541,324 overall revenue generated)
- '''Fourth Place:''' Amber Delta Lab ($16,625,890 overall revenue generated)

With Royal Diamond Lab taking the win in Lab Wars I, their name was retired into the Hall of Lab Wars Victors. CQL, EOL, and ADL returned for Lab Wars II, along with a new fourth lab: Magenta Star Lab.

== Lab Wars II ==
Lab Wars II began on January 22nd, 2023 and ran through February 19th, 2023. Four labs, Crimson Quadri Lab, Emerald Orb Lab, Amber Delta Lab, and Magenta Star Lab, entered the fight!

- '''First Place Winner:''' Emerald Orb Lab ($385,520,865 overall revenue generated)

Lab Wars

CraydorGM: /* Lab Wars History */

Lab Wars is a collaborative, team-based event where every player on the server is recruited, at random, by one of four labs. Players generate '''revenue''' for their lab through many activites on the server (selling/running/supplying chems, arresting players, fishing, killing mobs in [[The Pit]], competing in events, and lab investments). All generated revenue is tracked and the top players and labs can be seen in the Lab Wars leaderboard ('''/lw''').

== The Labs ==
The first time you do something on the server that generates lab revenue, you will be recruited by one of the active labs at random. Once you're in a lab, your lab's symbol will show next to your name in your chat messages, and you'll get access to your lab's chat tag and chat channel ('''/lc <message>'''').

Each lab has its own channel in our Discord and in-game, and you'll get access to your lab's channel as long as your Discord account is linked ('''/link''' in Spawn).

== Lab Elimination ==
Starting at Phase One, the lab that is in last place at the end of each phase is eliminated, until only one lab remains at the end of the event. Each player's original lab is tracked, and players who stay in their original lab until the end earn greater rewards.

Phase Zero is a safe phase, all labs are safe from elimination until the end of the first phase. Phase Zero is used to work out any balancing issues, allow time for players to get assigned to labs, and allow newer players or players unfamiliar with Lab Wars to get acclimated to it.

== Lab Revenue, Dividends, and Investments ==
Lab Revenue is the core of Lab Wars. Revenue is a form of points that lab members earn by doing various server activities, including selling/running/supplying chems, arresting players, fishing, killing mobs in The Pit, competing in events, and through lab investments ('''/lw invest'''). All revenue is tracked, and the Lab Wars leaderboard (/lw) shows which players have generated the most revenue for their lab, as well as overall. At the end of each Lab Wars day, phase, and at the end of the event, the top players in each lab and overall earn additional rewards.

Along with position-based rewards, '''lab dividends''' are paid out at the end of each Lab Wars day to every player who has generated lab revenue that day. Dividends are money rewards paid to players based on their revenue generated and their lab's place at the end of that day.

Similar to dividends, '''lab investments''' pay out at the end of each day based on your lab's place. You can directly invest money into your lab with '''/lw invest <amount>''', up to $1,000,000 per day, to instantly generate lab revenue. At the end of the lab wars day, you earn a return on your investment based on your lab's place that day.

== Chem Bounties and Lab Selling Boosts ==
Bounty chems are chosen through bidding in '''/lw shop'''. Once a bounty chem is selected, selling this chem will generate anywhere from 1.25x more lab revenue and reward 25% more prestige progress. A bounty will last until a certain amount has been sold, or a time limit is hit, and then the next bounty is selected.

Along with chem bounties, every hour the lab that is in first place on the daily leaderboard at the moment gets a '''lab selling boost''' - a 10% boost to chem selling prices and prestige progress for all players in the lab. They keep this boost as long as they're in first place; if a different lab is in first place at the start of the next hour, the boost gets moved to that lab.

== Events and Revenue Boosts ==
Events are hosted throughout Lab Wars that offer a chance to earn huge amounts of revenue. They're usually hosted on evenings and weekends - keep an eye on our Discord for announcements.

Revenue can be boosted by Revenue Boosters. Players can purchase them (from the store or with Revenue Booster Fragments in '''/fragments'''), and they can be started when the global revenue goal is hit.

== Daily Shop and Revenue Milestones ==
The Daily Shop is a way to "spend" your lab revenue. Spending your revenue does not remove from your or your lab's overall revenue - think of it as a separate balance that's increased by generating lab revenue. The shop has seven items each day, offering a mixture of personal, lab-wide, and global benefits. Your revenue balance resets at the end of each phase, so be sure to use it!

== Revenue Milestones ==
As you earn revenue, you'll earn revenue milestone rewards. There are a set of milestones for each day, each phase, and overall. Hitting milestones by generating lab revenue grants rewards that will help both yourself and your lab. Milestones are enabled starting on Phase One.

== Drafts ==
When a lab goes bankrupt and is eliminated from Lab Wars, its members are absorbed by the remaining labs. While the re-assignment is random for most players, the top players of the eliminated lab will be re-assigned by draft.

At the end of each phase, the remaining labs will be asked to make a priority order of the top players of the eliminated lab, based on who they'd like most in their lab. These players will then be assigned to their new labs based on this order.

== Lab Chat ==
Each lab has a private chat channel in-game, removing the need for players to create their own lab group chats. You can speak in your lab's chat channel with the '''/lc''' command. These chats are linked to the Discord channels for each lab similar to how the '''#ingame-chat''' channel works. Make sure you '''/link''' your Discord account in Spawn to get access.

= Lab Wars History =
Lab Wars was first ran from November 3rd, 2022 and lasted through November 29th, 2022 and was the first iteration of Lab Wars. It marked a historic moment in MCLabs history and changed some of the scope of how MCLabs operates.

Town

2023-07-22T04:05:42Z

CraydorGM: /* Lockable Chests */

'''This page provides info on using the Towny plugin - but remember, you don't need to be in a town or claim your land! Grieifing is not allowed in the Town world, so feel free to build on the surface without claiming the land.

[[File:LionsParkNight.png|200px|thumb|right|Lions Park in the Town World]]
The Town world is a more relaxed approach at playing the server geared towards building communities and showing off your creativity. Towny offers no raiding, plots for your newcomers, and so much more! Start your Town adventures by visiting Lions Park at '''/warp town'''!

= Getting Started =
Mayors can start towns using the command '''/town new <town_name>''' for a set price. The townblock they're standing in will become the home block for the town (the exact spot/position will be the spawn point for the town - this can be changed using '''/town set spawn'''). If you decide to change the name of the town, you can always do so with '''/town set name <new name>'''.

''Note: if you incorrectly create a town and need to delete it and move it elsewhere you must remember to withdraw any funds in the Town Bank with '''/town withdraw <money>''' or the money will be lost!''

Players can join established towns once they've been invited by the town's Mayor or Assistants.

= Town World Rules and Restrictions =
* Griefing, raiding, and obstructing other players in any way is not allowed.
* Valuable items cannot be stored in chests (this includes crate items, most gear, vouchers, etc.)
* Chem compounds can not be stored in chests (you can use your '''/chemtainer''' to store them cross-world)
* Automatic farms are not allowed (build them in the Factions world), and chunk hoppers are disabled.

= Towns =
Mayors and assistants can add players to their town with the command '''/town add <player_name>''' which will send an invite to the target player, giving them a prompt to either accept or deny the invitation. Mayors can also choose to have their town as public by using '''/town toggle open''', and players not already in a town can join open towns by using '''/town join <town_name>'''!

'''Note:''' Open towns can be viewed using the '''/town list by open''' command.

Every town has a homeblock that exists because towns must always have at least one chunk claimed. When creating a town, the chunk you are standing on becomes the first homeblock, and your exact position becomes the first town spawn. The town spawn is located within the homeblock chunk and it is indicated by particles on the ground.

In Towny, you can teleport back to your town spawn by typing '''/town spawn'''.
In Nations, you teleport to your town spawn after dying.
The location of the homeblock as well as the town spawn can be changed by the Mayor. To change the location of the homeblock, and where in your town people teleport to when using '''/town spawn''', you need to do '''/town set homeblock''' first and then '''/town set spawn'''. Your exact position will be the new town spawn.

The homeblock is an equivalent to the concept of the “town center”. The location of the town spawn and homeblock are best suited to a central place in the town, where residents have fast access to the rest of the town.

== Townblocks ==
Block protection is broken down into plots of land, called '''townblocks''', which by default are 16xYx16 (Y = the entire build limit). Townblocks are claimed by town mayors who can then sell/give individual plots to their town's residents.

By default, Mayors and Assistants can claim townblocks for their town using '''/town claim'''.

Townblocks have an initial cost of $500 for the first chunk, and increase by 2.5% for each additional townblock (chunk) claimed. This means the second is $512.50, the third is $525, etc. This is capped at $100,000 per claim. Outposts are the same cost, but with an initial $250,000 to create an outpost.

== Town Upkeep ==
Town upkeep is the amount of money the server automatically removes from your town bank at the start of each Towny Day (a real day, not a Minecraft day), so that the town can continue to exist. Not having enough money in the town bank to pay upkeep means that your town will fall into '''Ruins'''. Players can use '''/town deposit <money>''' to manually transfer money from their balance to the town bank at any time. Town upkeep raises as you claim more Townblocks, so be sure to only claim what you can afford!

== Buying and Owning Plots ==
Every resident of your town—including the Mayor—can own town plots, where they can have their space to build on and use, as much space as the Mayor can or wants to give, that other residents cannot normally access. The town plots that a resident owns are called their resident plots. Residents have full access to their own resident plots, and all commands for them. Residents can own multiple and separated resident plots.

Residents have to buy a town plot first, to make it their own resident plot.

First, the Mayor must sell a town plot by using '''/plot forsale (price)''' while standing on a town plot.
Then, a resident (or the Mayor) can type '''/plot claim''' while standing in the town plot for sale, in order to buy it for the set price. The money is transferred from the resident's balance to the town bank.
To withdraw a plot from sale, you may type '''/plot notforsale'''.

A resident can use '''/plot unclaim''' while standing on one of their resident plots, in order to remove their ownership of it ("unclaim their resident plot").

Residents owning their own land is a necessary feature of any town, because the land residents use to build and protect their items on, is differentiated from the public town land. A well-organized town will generally allow each resident to have their resident plots in convenient locations around the town, with all of their resident plots close or next to each other.

== Outposts ==
Each group of claims that is separated from the main Town area is known as an '''Outpost'''. The first chunk claimed in a town outpost is called the town outpost spawnblock, and the location you are standing on in the claimed chunk is called the town outpost spawn.

To claim an area for an outpost, you can run '''/town claim outpost'''. To access the outpost, simply run '''/town outpost <outpost number/name>'''.

Outposts have a fee of $250,000 to create an outpost, and follow the same townblock cost progression as normal townblocks, seen above.

== Ruins ==
Ruins are created when a Town cannot afford to run anymore, all members leave, or someone deletes the town. While ruined, a town is subject to the following:
* Townblocks cannot be claimed by other towns.
** The town will be placed under the control of an NPC mayor.
*** The town can be griefed
**** The town's residents will not be able to execute most '''/town''' commands and no '''/plot''' commands.

''Note: If you delete a Town with money still in the Town Balance, the money will be lost. Remember to withdraw the money before deleting a town!''

== Hierarchy ==
Within the Town world are different levels of player hierarchy, which indicate where a player is at compared to the towns.

=== Nomads ===
Nomads are simply players who are not part of any town. They are landless players, searching for a place to call home.

=== Mayors ===
Mayors run towns and with the help of their assistants, manage a town and its residents.
Mayors can decide which ranks their residents fall into, in their town. Mayors also determine what sort of tax and tax rates, if any, the town will charge the residents.

=== Nation Leaders ===
Nation Leaders lead nations and are the mayor of the capital city. Leaders can decide which ranks their residents fall into in their nation.
Leaders also have the ability to set titles (prefixes) and surnames (postfixes) to the residents of the towns they have in their nation using:
'''/nation set title <player_name> <title>''' and
'''/nation set surname <player_name> <title>'''

== Town Shops ==
Town members can create shops within the town claims for other players to buy/sell items among the community. To create a shop:
* Place a Chest in the desired location
* Hold the item you want to buy/sell and type /iteminfo to get the item ID.
* Place a sign on or above the chest with the shop information
** Line One: Leave it BLANK!
** Line Two: Item Amount (However many you want to buy/sell of an item per transaction)
** Line Three: B#: S#: (Use B to sell items, use S to buy items. The # after B or S is the '''price'''.
* Line Four: Item Name/ID (if you can't figure out the item ID, or it is a custom item/crate item, you can put '''?''' in the slot and it will auto pull the info from the item in the chest)

= Lockable Chests =
The Town world has an additional grief prevention that allows players to lock their containers through '''/lwc'''. By default, when you place a container, it will be created as '''Public'''. You will need to change this to Private to prevent items being taken.

= Nations =
Being part of a nation is beneficial to towns for many reasons. Towns that have joined one can have extra protection from outsiders, are given more chunks to claim, and granted a variety of other gameplay benefits related to economy, influence, communication and community. A town that has joined a nation may also have to pay a daily town nation tax—in addition to upkeep—from its town bank. The town nation tax that your town pays every day is set by your nation's Leader, and it can be viewed by typing '''/towny prices''' (at the bottom).

Generally, your town can join a nation after being invited. The Mayor may accept a nation invitation by typing '''/accept (name of inviting nation)''' or deny it by typing '''/deny (name of inviting nation)'''.

On the other hand, if you do not wish to join a different nation, you can always make your own!
Being in a nation shapes a town's gameplay and strategy in multiple ways in both Towny and Nations.

Use '''/n (name of nation)''' to view a nation's nation information screen. Your own nation's nation information screen can be viewed by typing '''/n'''.

To create your nation, use '''/n new (name of nation)'''. You must be a Mayor in order to create a nation. This action removes money from the town bank.
The Mayor creating the nation is assigned its Leader (or King). A Leader has access to all commands for their nation. The town of the Mayor creating the nation, is declared the nation's capital town.
Invite other towns into your nation by using '''/n invite (name of town)'''. The town's Mayor or Comayors can use '''/accept (your nation's name)''' to join. To cancel an invite to a town, use '''/n invite -(name of town)'''.
You can remove a town from your nation by using '''/n kick (name of town)'''.
Change the border color of all towns in your nation, as seen in the Dynamic map, by typing '''/n set mapcolor (color)'''. (Make sure the color is unique, for better visibility!)

Any nation member can use '''/n deposit (amount of money)''' to transfer money from their balance to the nation bank. The Leader, Coleaders or Treasurers can withdraw money from the nation bank by using '''/n withdraw (amount of money)'''. The Leader, Coleaders, Chancellors and Treasurers can also view the bank transaction history of their nation bank for the current Towny day by typing '''/n bankhistory'''.

On Nations, players can also use the xp bank to deposit xp for storage. Any player can transfer to the xp bank using '''/n xpbank deposit (amount of xp/all)'''. The Leader, Coleaders or Xp Bankers can withdraw xp using '''/n xpbank withdraw (amount of xp/all)'''.

== Nation Upkeep ==
Nation upkeep is the amount of money that the server automatically removes from your nation bank at the start of each Towny day, so that the nation can continue to exist. More towns in the nation means higher nation upkeep to pay each day. Nation taxes are collected before nation upkeep.

== Nation Merging ==
Nation merging is the action of transferring the towns and nation bank of one nation to another.

The Leader or Coleader can request a nation to merge into their nation by using '''/n merge (foreign nation)'''. The other nation's Leader must be online and type '''/confirm''' if they wish the other nation to merge into theirs. Otherwise the Leader may type '''/cancel''' to deny the request.

The nation that receives and accepts the merge request will be dissolved—its Leader and other ranked nation members will lose all their nation ranks, its name will be removed from the server, and its towns and bank will be transferred to the other nation, if possible.

A Leader or Coleader of both nations involved must be online while the request and merger take place.

== Transferring Leadership ==
A Leader can pass the Leader rank (title and powers) to another nation member, by using '''/n set king (name of new king)'''. The player must be a Mayor of a town within the nation. The new Leader's town will be appointed the nation's capital town.
Similarly, using '''/n set capital (town name)''' appoints the specified town as the new capital town; its Mayor will be the new Leader of the nation.
In both cases (using either of the above commands), the Leader gives up their Leader rank, and their town is no longer the capital town of the nation. In addition, the nation spawn is removed when the capital town is changed.
The previous Leader will not have any nation ranks after giving up Leadership.

If you are considering passing Leadership to another player, only give it if you absolutely need to, and if you fully trust that person with the nation!

= Configuring Permissions =
*'''build''' - Permission to place blocks, boats, minecarts, item frames, armor stands; place items inside item frames
*'''destroy''' - Permission to break blocks; use a hoe or axe on blocks; eat cake.
*'''switch''' - Permission to use doors, trapdoors, fence gates, buttons, pressure plates, levers, composters, bells, lodestones, respawn anchors; open chests, barrels, shulker boxes, hoppers, dispensers, enchanting tables, furnaces, blast furnaces, smokers, looms, stonecutters, cartography tables, anvils, brewing stands, smithing tables, grindstones, lecterns, trapped chests, jukeboxes, minecarts with chest, minecarts with furnace, minecarts with hopper; trigger tripwire, pistons, sticky pistons; change the state of redstone components; change the rotation of items in item frames.
*'''itemuse''' - Permission to use the following active items: splash and lingering potions, eggs, ender pearls, eyes of ender, end crystals, chorus fruit, snowballs, fishing rods, bottles o' enchanting, bonemeal, dye, flint and steel; obtain water by using a bucket or glass bottle, and obtain lava by using a bucket; empty any buckets; attach a lead to an animal or fence; enter minecarts or boats; place and destroy minecarts or boats; use shears on sheep; place gear on armor stands and take gear from armor stands; access SlimeFun machines; bucket a fish or axolotl; dye signs' text.

== Permission Levels ==
*'''resident''' - All residents that are part of the town have a permission type in that unowned town plot.
*'''nation''' - All nation members of your own nation have a permission type in that unowned town plot.
*'''ally''' - All nation members of your allied nations have a permission type in that unowned town plot, but not nation members of your own nation.
*'''outsider''' - All players except the ones listed above have access to a permission type in that unowned town plot.

Plot Permission levels apply to resident plots:
*'''friend''' — All players in your friend list have a permission type in that resident plot.
*'''town''' — All residents that are part of your town have a permission type in that resident plot.
*'''ally''' — All nation members of your nation and your allied nations have a permission type in that resident plot.
*'''outsider''' — All players except the ones listed above have access to the permission type in that resident plot.

== Permission Categories ==
There are 4 categories of permissions to configure. Each category applies to certain town plots.

'''General town permissions''' and '''individual town permissions''' apply to '''unowned town plots'''. '''Resident permissions''' and '''plot permissions''' apply to '''resident plots'''. Town permissions become resident/plot permissions for a claim when a resident buys it, and resident/plot permissions become town permissions for it again when the resident's ownership of it is removed.

*Configure general town permissions for all unowned town plots in the town by using /t set perm '''(town permission level) (permission type) (on/off)'''
**General town permissions also apply when claiming a chunk from Wilderness.

*Configure '''individual town permissions''' for the '''unowned''' town plot you are standing on by using '''/plot set perm (town permission level) (permission type) (on/off)'''
**Individual town permissions override general town permissions—this practically means that configuring general town permissions, after configuring individual town permissions for an unowned town plot, will not change that unowned town plot's permission settings.

*Configure '''resident permissions''' for all your '''owned resident plots''' by using '''/res set perm (plot permission level) (permission type) (on/off)'''
**Resident permissions also apply when buying a town plot.

*Configure plot permissions for the resident plot you are standing on by using '''/plot set perm (plot permission level) (permission type) (on/off)'''
**Plot permissions override resident permissions—this practically means that configuring resident permissions, after configuring plot permissions for any of your resident plots, will not change that resident plot's permission settings.

= Trusting =
Trusting allows you to grant all permission types (build, destroy, switch, itemuse) for any claim in your town, to any player on the server.
*'''Town trusting''': To trust a player with '''all''' claims of your town, use '''/t trust add <playername>'''. To revoke a player's trust from the town, use '''/t trust remove <playername>'''.
Removing a player from being trusted does not necessarily mean that they stop having access to the town or the town plot. It means that the permissions you have configured for the town plot, will apply for them again.

= Town Board =
You can set a custom message for your town, called the town board. Use '''/t set board (message)''' to change your town's town board.

*The town's residents can view the town board when they enter the server, and in the town information screen.
*Other players can view your town board in your town's town information screen (/t (name of your town)).
*Anyone can view the town board in the Dynamic map.
To remove a town board, type '''/t set board none'''. This command also removes the message showing up for the town's residents when they enter the server.

= Double² =
<div style="float:right">__TOC__</div>
Double² is a stock market game that is accessed through the '''/d2''' command while in the [[spawn]] world. The game features stock market investment themes to double your money on RDL and ADL, or win 14 times your money on EOL.

== Playing Double² ==
=== Placing a bet ===
To wager on double², type '''/double invest <rdl/adl/eol> <amount>'''. The '''<amount>''' has a maximum threshold of $500,000, and any winnings over and including $500,000 will be announced to the server. The '''<rdl/adl/eol>''' argument specifies the lab that you are choosing.

=== Odds ===
Double² is created on a scale of 15, meaning that there are 15 numbers from which an investment is drawn. RDL and ADL have a 7 in 15 chance of drawing, and EOL is one in fifteen. RDL and ADL both pay out double the investment, while EOL pays out 14 times the investment.

= Alcohol =
<div style="float:right">__TOC__</div>
There are many custom alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks on the server, offering both negative and positive effects. Alcohol can be bought and sold at the MCD Liquor store in Spawn at '''/warp liquorstore'''.

== Drinks ==
=== Drink Types ===
There are two main types of drinks - alcohol and non-alcoholic. Alcoholic drinks get the player drunk and offer mostly negative effects, as well as some gameplay impacts, such as impaired movement, garbled chat, and vomiting. Non-alcoholic drinks have positive potion effects, and do not get the player drunk.

=== Buying and Selling Drinks ===
Drinks can be purchased and sold from the MCD Liquor store in Spawn.

Once in the liquor store, find a drink that is in stock. Right-click the slab that the drink is on, and click the "Purchase" button at the top-left of the menu to purchase one drink. You can also change the quantity of purchase, or shift+click the buy button to purchase all available stock.

Selling drinks works just like buying them. Once you have the drink in your inventory, find the shop for it in the liquor store, and right-click the slab. Click the "sell" button at the top-right of the menu to sell a single drink, or adjust the amount to sell more. You can also shift+click the sell button to sell all that you have in your inventory.

=== Drink Stock ===
Although each drink is available in the liquor store, only 3-, 4-, and 5-star quality drinks can be bought and sold here. Each drink has its own stock amount, and can only be purchased if the stock is above zero. Police must brew and sell drinks to the liquor store to increase the stock.

=== Brewing Drinks ===
Alcohol can only be brewed in the police houses in Spawn, so only police may brew it. Brewing consists of boiling ingredients, and either distilling or aging the results, sometimes both.

= Alcohol Brewing =
<div style="float:right">__TOC__</div>
Every brew is different. Time your brews precisely and accurately for a more potent brew. In order to make a 5-star brew, you'll need to follow the exact directions for the brew. Cooking it for too short or too long, distilling it incorrectly, or not aging for long enough will lead to a lower-quality brew, which will sell for less.

The only time that cops are allowed to have a personal farm is when that farm is going to be used for brewing alcohol. These farms must be very small and approved by an admin. Using a farm that is not approved, or for any other reasons then brewing alcohol will result in a permanent demotion from cop and a ban. Additionally brewing outside of a cop house can be grounds for a demotion.

== Getting Started ==
First things first, brewing is exclusive to cops. You can find more information about enrolling, the rules, what it means to be a cop, etc. on the [[Police]] page. After you've enrolled, you'll have to rent one of the police houses (they are in the area around "The Barnana" in the [[Spawn|map of spawn]]) for $5,000-$10,000 a day. Once you own a police region, you can easily teleport back to it with '''/as tp <region>'''.

Each cop house has the following brewing equipment:
* Cauldrons - put your ingredients in here to cook. If your cauldrons are empty, you can fill them by looking at them and typing '''/fc'''.
* Brewing stands - once you take the cooked ingredients out of the cauldron, place them in a brewing stand if they need to be distilled. Make sure to place a glowstone at the top of the brewing stand.
* Barrels - if a drink needs to be aged, leave it in a wood barrel. Leave it in the barrel for the number of "years" specified - each year is one Minecraft day.
* Sealing tables - place your brewed drinks into this, and after a moment, they will be sealed. Sealing drinks allows you to sell them to the liquor store.
* A few double-chests for storage. You may only store brewing-related items here, any use of these for general storage will be punished.

== The Brewing Process ==
=== Cooking ===
Cooking is the first step of all brews. Every brew requires the ingredients to be cooked first. To cook:
* Make sure your cauldron is full of water. You can fill it up by looking at it and typing '''/fc'''.
* With the appropriate ingredient in your hand, right-click the cauldron to add the ingredient. You should hear a sound and see a particle effect. Repeat this step for all necessary ingredients for the brew.
* Once all the ingredients are in the cauldron, leave them in for the specified cooking time. The cooking time of the receipe is in real-time minutes. You can check how long the cauldron has been cooking by right-clicking it with a clock.
* Once the cooking time has completed, right-click the cauldron with an empty bottle to extract the brew. A full cauldron will yield three bottles of brew.
<blockquote>''Tip: Divide the ingredients into stacks of the correct amount in your inventory, so you can easily right-click them all into the cauldron instead of having to count them out while adding.''</blockquote>

=== Distilling ===
Most alcoholic drinks and brews require a distilling period. Distilling is simple; place the brew into a brewing stand, with a piece of glowstone dust in the ingredient slot. The drink will automatically distill for the required number of runs. Wait for distilling to complete (You'll know it's done when there's no more brewing animation), then take the brew out of the brewing stand. The item should show how many distill runs it has gone through, you'll want this number to match the amount specified by the recipe.

=== Aging ===
Most alcoholic drinks also require an aging period. Aging is simple; place the brew into one of the barrels in your police house. Leave it inside for the specified number of "years". One year equates to one ''in-game day'' (approx. 20 minutes), not a real-time day.

== Drink Recipes ==
All specified effects are for 5-star brews. Effects will be lesser for lower-quality brews.

= Dog Fight =
<div style="float:right">__TOC__</div>
Dog Fights are exactly what they sound like - dogs fighting. Though frowned upon globally, the Lion Casino capitalizes on the global hatred and creates an experience for players like no others. Bet on which dog will win, as only one is left standing after each match. Visit the Dog Fight arena by using '''/df tp''' and bet on fights by using '''/df bet <amount> <red/blue>'''.

== Betting on Dog Fights ==
Before betting, you want to see the percentage payouts of the dogs. They are split into 3 tiers - light weight, middle weight and heavy weight and the payouts are based on which tiers are fighting. Betting on a fight with two dogs of the same tier is a 50/50 chance of winning, while you can get payouts much higher by betting on lightweight dogs when they are up against heavyweight. For the best percentage chance of winning, you can bet on heavyweights beating lightweights. Watch the dogs and see their statistics at '''/df tp'''.

== Dog Fight Commands ==

'''/df tp''' - Warp to the dog fight arena and watch the fights.

'''/df bet <amount> <red/blue>''' - Bet on dog fights, where <amount> is the money you are wagering and <red/blue> is the color of the dog you are betting will win.

'''/df stats''' - View your dog fight statistics including total amount bet, total winnings/losses and total profit.

= Drugs =
MCDrugs has several drug types, each with a different farming method and selling price. Understanding the creation process and price of each drug is the key to choosing which drug(s) to focus on.

== Raw Drugs ==
Raw drugs are the vanilla Minecraft crops that are harvested. Some harvested items require one step of crafting to turn into the raw drug item, but most can be sold directly after harvesting.

== Processed Drugs & Non-Drug Ingredients ==
Processed drugs are raw drugs that take one more step to process. This can be either in the form of smelting a raw drug, or crafting it with a non-drug item. There are also some non-drug ingredients that cannot be sold, but are required for some combinations.

== Drug Combinations ==
Drug combinations are custom items that result from the combination of two or more drugs, and sometimes other items. Drug combinations can be crafted in a crafting table, or made quicker in '''/lab''' (starting at Mass Producer rank).

Drug combinations are always quicker to sell, and can be worth more than the sum of the prices of their parts. The prices of combinations are based on the prices of the ingredients and their ratios, and may also have small price boost for extra steps like smelting and requiring ingredients that are combos.

Some combinations are more difficult to make than others. The Drug Lab gives each combination a difficulty rating out of 5.
* Difficulty levels of 1-2 are considered "Beginner Drug Combinations". These are made of drugs that are easy to farm, and the crafting is simple.
* Difficulty levels of 3-4 are considered "Intermediate Drug Combinations". These can be more difficult to farm and craft, but usually sell for more.
* A difficult level of 5 is considered a "Advanced Drug Combination". These take multiple ingredients, and may have multiple steps to obtain the final product, and are often the most valuable.

Lab Wars

2023-07-03T03:27:48Z

CraydorGM:

Lab Wars is a collaborative, team-based event where every player on the server is recruited, at random, by one of four labs. Players generate '''revenue''' for their lab through many activites on the server (selling/running/supplying chems, arresting players, fishing, killing mobs in [[The Pit]], competing in events, and lab investments). All generated revenue is tracked and the top players and labs can be seen in the Lab Wars leaderboard ('''/lw''').

= The Labs =
The first time you do something on the server that generates lab revnue, you will be recruited by one of the active labs at random. Once you're in a lab, your lab's symbol will show next to your name in your chat messages, and you'll get access to your lab's chat tag.

Each lab has its own channel in our Discord and in-game, and you'll get access to your lab's channel as long as your Discord account is linked ('''/link''' in Spawn).

== Lab Elimination ==
Starting at Phase One, the lab that is in last place at the end of each phase is eliminated, until only one lab remains at the end of the event. Each player's original lab is tracked, and players who stay in their original lab until the end earn greater rewards.

Phase Zero is a safe phase, all labs are safe from elimination until the end of the first phase. Phase Zero is used to work out any balancing issues, allow time for players to get assigned to labs, and allow newer players or players unfamiliar with Lab Wars to get acclimated to it.

== Lab Revenue, Dividends, and Investments ==
Lab Revenue is the core of Lab Wars. Revenue is a form of points that lab members earn by doing various server activities, including selling/running/supplying chems, arresting players, fishing, killing mobs in The Pit, competing in events, and through lab investments ('''/lw invest'''). All revenue is tracked, and the Lab Wars leaderboard (/lw) shows which players have generated the most revenue for their lab, as well as overall. At the end of each Lab Wars day, phase, and at the end of the event, the top players in each lab and overall earn additional rewards.

Along with position-based rewards, '''lab dividends''' are paid out at the end of each Lab Wars day to every player who has generated lab revenue that day. Dividends are money rewards paid to players based on their revenue generated and their lab's place at the end of that day.

Similar to dividends, '''lab investments''' pay out at the end of each day based on your lab's place. You can directly invest money into your lab with '''/lw invest <amount>''', up to $1,000,000 per day, to instantly generate lab revenue. At the end of the lab wars day, you earn a return on your investment based on your lab's place that day.

== Chem Bounties and Lab Selling Boosts ==
Every hour, a chem is randomly selected to be the '''Bounty Chem'''. For the next hour, selling this chem will generate anywhere from 1.5x-2.5x more lab revenue, and reward 25% more prestige progress.

Along with chem bounties, every hour the lab that is in first place on the daily leaderboard at the moment gets a '''lab selling boost''' - a 10% boost to chem selling prices and prestige progress for all players in the lab. They keep this boost as long as they're in first place; if a different lab is in first place at the start of the next hour, the boost gets moved to that lab.

== Events and Revenue Boost Days ==
With players being split into distinct teams, we will be running many team-based events throughout November, creating opportunities for players to generate massive amounts of revenue for their lab. Keep an eye on the '''#lab-wars-announcements''' channel on the Discord for more info about events.

Since there are so many ways to generate lab revenue, we will occasionally run '''revenue boost days''', where a certain activity will generate up to 4x lab revenue for anywhere from one to three days.

== Daily Shop and Revenue Milestones ==
The Daily Shop creates a way to spend your lab revenue. Spending your revenue does not remove from your or your lab's overall revenue - think of it as a separate balance that's increased by generating lab revenue. The shop has seven items each day, offering a mixture of personal, lab-wide, and global benefits. Your revenue balance resets at the end of each phase, so be sure to use it!

Revenue Milestones don't need much explanation - they work just like leaderboard milestones. There are a set of milestones for each day, each phase, and overall. Hitting milestones by generating lab revenue grants rewards that will help both yourself and your lab. Milestones are enabled starting on Phase One.

== Draft Auctions ==
When a lab goes bankrupt and is eliminated from Lab Wars, its members are absorbed by the remaining labs. While the re-assignment is random for most players, the top players of the eliminated lab will be re-assigned by draft-auction.

At the end of each phase, the remaining labs will be asked to make a priority order of the top players of the eliminated lab, based on who they'd like most in their lab. These players will then be assigned to their new labs based on this order.

== Lab Chat ==
Each lab has a private chat channel in-game, removing the need for players to create their own lab group chats. You can speak in your lab's chat channel with the '''/lc''' command. These chats are linked to the Discord channels for each lab similar to how the '''#ingame-chat''' channel works. Make sure you '''/link''' your Discord account in Spawn to get access.

= Lab Wars History =
Lab Wars was first ran from November 3rd, 2022 and lasted through November 29th, 2022 and was the first iteration of Lab Wars. It marked a historic moment in MCLabs history and changed some of the scope of how MCLabs operates.

== Lab Wars I ==
From November 3rd through November 29th of 2022, Royal Diamond Lab, Crimson Quadri Lab, Emerald Orb Lab, and Amber Delta Lab competed to take home the win for the first ever Lab Wars Event. The standings ended as follows:

- '''Third Place:''' Emerald Orb Lab ($112,541,324 overall revenue generated)
- '''Fourth Place:''' Amber Delta Lab ($16,625,890 overall revenue generated)

With Royal Diamond Lab taking the win in Lab Wars I, their name was retired into the Hall of Lab Wars Victors. CQL, EOL, and ADL returned for Lab Wars II, along with a new fourth lab: Magenta Star Lab.

== Lab Wars II ==
Lab Wars II began on January 22nd, 2023 and ran through February 19th, 2023. Four labs, Crimson Quadri Lab, Emerald Orb Lab, Amber Delta Lab, and Magenta Star Lab, entered the fight!

With Emerald Orb Lab taking the win in Lab Wars II, their name was retired into the Hall of Lab Wars Victors.

== Lab Wars III ==
Lab Wars III began on June 16th, 2023 and ran through July 2nd, 2023. Four labs, Crimson Quadri Lab, Cyan Crescent Lab, Amber Delta Lab, and Magenta Star Lab, entered the fight!

- '''First Place Winner:''' Amber Delta Lab ($393,057,730 overall revenue generated)
- '''Second Place:''' Cyan Crescent Lab ($356,028,488 overall revenue generated)
- '''Third Place:''' Crimson Quadri Lab ($161,945,308 overall revenue generated)
- '''Fourth Place:''' Magenta Star Lab ($57,693,819 overall revenue generated)

With Amber Delta Lab taking the win in Lab Wars III, their name was retired into the Hall of Lab Wars Victors.

Factions

2023-06-22T04:08:47Z

CraydorGM:

<div style="float:right">__TOC__</div>

The Factions aspect of MCLabs offers a side of the gameplay that is more productive using teamwork through creating or joining factions. The Factions plugin allows you to create your own group of up to 15 players, and claim your land to protect it. Factions are only available in the Faction world. Faction claims are great way to protect your land, just because you have a claim doesn't mean you are totally safe, players can use Creeper Eggs and TNT cannons to destroy your walls, or overclaim your land if you have more land than power. It is recommended that you get to the Engineer rank before going to Factions, but it is not required.

== Faction Basics ==
=== General Information ===
Factions are only available in the Faction world. If you are leading a faction, make sure to set the abilities of different ranks in your faction with '''/f perm'''. The main commands are listed below, but you can view all of them with '''/f help''' as well.

=== Base Building & Defenses ===
Simply claiming land '''DOES NOT''' prevent any [[Raiding]]. The most defended bases can still get raided, but you can make it much harder for raiders to get inside. The standard base defenses involve cobblestone, obsidian, and/or sand and gravel walls. You can either water them or use lava between them to stop TNT from blowing them up easily.

<blockquote>''Use the gen buckets in '''/shop''' to build walls quicker. These buckets will gen the block from the level you place it to sky limit.''</blockquote>

=== Faction Rules ===
* Faction Hopping: Faction hopping (broadly defined as “leaving or remaking a faction to avoid restrictions”) is not allowed.
* Inappropriate Faction Names: Faction names must generally follow the same rules as chat and nicknames. If your faction name is vulgar, derogatory, racist, or references another player without their permission you will be asked to change it.
* Faction Titles and Names: You may not use faction titles and or colour codes to obscure or fake the names of the people in your faction.

All server rules must also be followed. You can view those here: [[Rules]].

== Commands & Faction Power ==
=== Factions Commands ===
Here are the basic factions commands you need to know to get started:
* Create a faction: '''/f create <faction name>'''.
* Invite someone to your faction: '''/f invite <player>'''
* Join a faction: '''/f join <faction name>'''
* Claim land (by the chunk): '''/f claim <radius>'''
* Set your faction home: '''/f sethome'''
* Teleport to your faction home: '''/f home'''
* Check Total faction power '''/f who <faction name>'''
* Check personal power '''/f power'''

There's many more factions commands, too many to list here. To learn about them, you can read the [https://factions.support/commands/ official documentation].

=== Factions Power ===
The amount of land your faction can claim is limited by the power of your faction. Each player has their own amount of power, and the faction's power is the total power of every player in the faction. The number of chunks you can claim is limited by your faction's power.

Dying will lower your power, and you will have to wait for it to regenerate. This will lower your faction's current power. If your faction's power is lower than the number of chunks your faction has claimed, other factions will be able to steal your land.

<blockquote>''Tip: Always keep your number of chunk claims lower than your total faction power, so that you can afford a few deaths without losing your land.''</blockquote>

You can gain more personal factions power by ranking up - view [[Ranks]] to see how much power is unlocked, and at which ranks.

Ranks

2023-06-22T04:08:06Z

CraydorGM:

<div style="float:right">__TOC__</div>

MCLabs has a rank system for both the Chem and Cop path. You can view the prices of ranks at any time in-game using '''/ranks''' for chemranks, and '''/copranks''' for cop ranks. Prestiges can be checked using '''/prestiges''', and cop prestiges with '''/copprestiges'''. The prices and perks/advantages are also listed below.

== Ranks ==
=== Legend ===
'''FP''': Faction Power ('''/factions''')

'''CF''': Chem Compound Formula unlock ('''/lab''')

'''RJ''': Runner Job Listings ('''/runner sell''')

=== Prestiging and Prestige Rewards ===
==== Prestiging ====
Upon reaching Director or Commissioner, you can prestige and progress to Junky or Informant of the next prestige. There are ten chemrank prestiges and five police rank prestiges.

After first prestige, in order to be able to prestige, you must unlock the next prestige. Chem prestiges are unlocked by selling a certain amount of a single type of chem. Police prestiges are unlocked by collecting a certain amount of contraband. You can see your progress towards prestige unlocks with '''/prestige progress''', and see how many prestiges you have unlocked with '''/prestige'''.

Following all of the prestiges, there is a set of Master Prestige ranks for both chemranks and police ranks. Each Master Prestige rank costs 5x the price of the corresponding rank. Upon completing Master Prestige, you will achieve either Chem Lord or Operator status, and can access Mastery ('''/mastery''').

==== Unlocking Prestiges ====
[[File:Chems_Prestige_Progress.png|thumb|300px|An example of what the prestige progress items look like. This one is specifically for selling Wheatium.]]
Once you are Director or Commissioner of your current prestige, you can not progress until you unlock the next prestige. Prestiges are unlocked by completing prestige achievements. For chem prestiges, this means selling a specific amount of one of the types of chem. For police prestiges, it means collecting a certain amount of contraband.

For the chemselling prestige achievements, your sales of each base chems tracked, and the number progresses each time you sell that chem. Each base chem has its own goal, ranging from 100-875 inventories of that chemsold. When you sell a chem combo, you'll earn progress for each chemin that combo, based on the ratios it is crafted with. You can also earn progress by running and posting runner jobs. You can only earn 50% of the progress for each chem through posting runner jobs, you must run the rest yourself (either selling your own, or by doing other players' runner jobs). When you meet the goal number of chem sold for a certain chem , you will unlock a chem prestige.

<blockquote>''Tip: To see how much of a certain chem you've sold through posting runner jobs, use '''/prestige runnersales <chem>'''''</blockquote>

Police prestige achievements are based on number of contraband collected from frisking players. 75 inventories of contraband must be collected to unlock each police prestige.

For each prestige achievement you complete, you will unlock one prestige. They can be done in any order. To unlock Chem Lord Status, you must complete the achievement of each for the 14 base chems.

View your unlocked prestiges with '''/prestige'''. View your progress for each prestige achievement with '''/prestige progress'''.

==== Prestige Rewards ====
At first prestige (Junky I), a museum bust is awarded ('''/museum busts'''). The sign updates with the prestige of the player each time they prestige. A player can have two busts; one for chem rank prestiges, and one for police rank prestiges.

Each prestige will reward one prestige key.

==== Mastery ====
Once you have obtained your Max Rank (either as through Chems or Police), you unlock the Mastery system where you can deposit money into your Mastery fund for more perks. Read more about Mastery, the requirements, and the rewards at [[Mastery]].

Rules

CraydorGM: /* General Rules */

<div style="float:right">__TOC__</div>
MCLabs strives to create an environment that is welcoming and enjoyable for every player. In order to accomplish that, we have strict rules that must be followed by all players. There are no exceptions to these rules, and trying to find loopholes to get away with borderline violations will result in applicable punishment.

== General Rules ==
'''Please note that aside from these rules, staff have the ability to take action with their own discretion in necessary situations.'''

# No hacking, cheating, or exploiting. Ask a staff member if you believe something may be an exploit.
#: '''*''' This includes abusing vanilla mechanics/abilities to achieve a result which would be considered an unfair advantage (block glitching, seeing through chunks/blocks, etc.)
#: '''*''' This includes taking advantage of quirks and unintended side effects of custom mechanics with the goal of getting an advantage not intended by that mechanic, such as placing other blocks to destroy deepslate with a Jackhammer.
#: '''*''' This also includes particular vanilla mechanics that require going out of your way to gain information (such as "pie-ray", using the F3 debug menu pie chart to locate bases, or any other debug information beyond the vanilla entity count.)
# Chat Guidelines:
#: '''2a:''' Do not flood chat - try to merge short, subsequent chat messages into the same line.
#: '''2b:''' Take one-on-one arguments and discussions into private messages (/msg) or group chat (/group).
#: '''2c:''' English only in main chat.
#: '''2d:''' Do not post malicious links in chat. Links to popular sites (e.g. YouTube, Twitch, etc.) are permitted.
#: '''2e:''' Full-caps are allowed, as long as the message follows all other rules.
# Don't be an asshole; use common sense.
#: '''3a:''' Treat all other players with respect. Banter/trash talking is allowed but you may be warned to stop if it becomes excessive.
#: '''3b:''' Excessive hate will not be tolerated and will result in a mute without warning.
#: '''3c:''' Not all rules are explicitly listed here; each situation is unique and will be handled under staff interpretation.
# No begging for free items, ranks, money, etc.
# Alternate accounts are not allowed.
#: '''*''' Tell us if you have someone else playing on your IP.
#: '''*''' Be prepared to verify with an admin.
# Combat logging (logging out to avoid PvP) and police logging (logging out to avoid police) are not allowed.
#: '''*''' Going on mule duty and switching servers are considered combat logging.
# Scamming is '''not''' allowed.
#: '''7a:''' Agreements made on the server are responsible to the people involved in the agreement to have evidence of. Agreements that are made and not screenshot as evidence will not be investigated by Staff and will be assumed to be void. Proof from both parties agreeing to it is required to uphold the agreement.
# Do not impersonate police (wearing blue armour and/or acting like police).
# Some AFK machines/mechanics are not allowed:
#: '''9a:''' AFK fishing machines/fish farms are not allowed.
#: '''9b:''' Cobblestone generators are not allowed.
#: '''9c:''' Any macro/mod that allows you to automate actions is not allowed (holding down keys/mouse is allowed).
# Do not plant/drop chems on other players.
# Do not drop large amounts of items on the ground. Use /bin
# Do not impersonate staff.

# Do not take bribes from players (eg. Taking money to let them go, taking "bail" money from them).
# Do not use speed, jump, or invisibility potions while on duty.
# Do not use /hat while on duty.
# Selling chems for other players or selling chems that you had before enrolling into the police is punishable by permanent ban.
# The only time that cops are allowed to have a personal farm is when that farm is going to be used for crafting drinks. These farms must be very small and approved by an admin. Using a farm that is not approved, or for any other reasons than crafting drinks will result in a permanent demotion from cop and a ban.

# Insiding your town for resources is not allowed.
# Griefing any town or unclaimed area that is being developed is not allowed.

# Shop decorations must stay within your shop region (the area you can build in), including but not limited to beacon trails, water and lava.
# Once your shop is set up it must be accessible at all times. Do not wall off your shop, or build it in a way that can cause a player to get stuck inside it.

'''Scamming, item storage, or abusing the build region in your shop in any way will result in a ban and the loss of your shop.'''

# You may not repeat the same message in a single advert.
# The text around your advertisement must be directly related to the item, service, faction, etc. that you are promoting.
# Advertising an unrelated message and then including what you otherwise would be allowed to advertise is still against the rules. (ex. Goodchum is big smell, buy boss souls at A1, or advertising something that doesn’t have to do with buying/selling or a service/feature on the server)

Town

2023-05-19T22:01:24Z

CraydorGM: /* Getting Started */

'''This page provides info on using the Towny plugin - but remember, you don't need to be in a town or claim your land! Grieifing is not allowed in the Town world, so feel free to build on the surface without claiming the land.

[[File:LionsParkNight.png|200px|thumb|right|Lions Park in the Town World]]
The Town world is a more relaxed approach at playing the server geared towards building communities and showing off your creativity. Towny offers no raiding, plots for your newcomers, and so much more! Start your Town adventures by visiting Lions Park at '''/warp town'''!

= Getting Started =
Mayors can start towns using the command '''/town new <town_name>''' for a set price. The townblock they're standing in will become the home block for the town (the exact spot/position will be the spawn point for the town - this can be changed using '''/town set spawn'''). If you decide to change the name of the town, you can always do so with '''/town set name <new name>'''.

''Note: if you incorrectly create a town and need to delete it and move it elsewhere you must remember to withdraw any funds in the Town Bank with '''/town withdraw <money>''' or the money will be lost!''

Players can join established towns once they've been invited by the town's Mayor or Assistants.

= Town World Rules and Restrictions =
* Griefing, raiding, and obstructing other players in any way is not allowed.
* Valuable items cannot be stored in chests (this includes crate items, most gear, vouchers, etc.)
* Chem compounds can not be stored in chests (you can use your '''/chemtainer''' to store them cross-world)
* Automatic farms are not allowed (build them in the Factions world), and chunk hoppers are disabled.

= Towns =
Mayors and assistants can add players to their town with the command '''/town add <player_name>''' which will send an invite to the target player, giving them a prompt to either accept or deny the invitation. Mayors can also choose to have their town as public by using '''/town toggle open''', and players not already in a town can join open towns by using '''/town join <town_name>'''!

'''Note:''' Open towns can be viewed using the '''/town list by open''' command.

Every town has a homeblock that exists because towns must always have at least one chunk claimed. When creating a town, the chunk you are standing on becomes the first homeblock, and your exact position becomes the first town spawn. The town spawn is located within the homeblock chunk and it is indicated by particles on the ground.

In Towny, you can teleport back to your town spawn by typing '''/town spawn'''.
In Nations, you teleport to your town spawn after dying.
The location of the homeblock as well as the town spawn can be changed by the Mayor. To change the location of the homeblock, and where in your town people teleport to when using '''/town spawn''', you need to do '''/town set homeblock''' first and then '''/town set spawn'''. Your exact position will be the new town spawn.

The homeblock is an equivalent to the concept of the “town center”. The location of the town spawn and homeblock are best suited to a central place in the town, where residents have fast access to the rest of the town.

== Townblocks ==
Block protection is broken down into plots of land, called '''townblocks''', which by default are 16xYx16 (Y = the entire build limit). Townblocks are claimed by town mayors who can then sell/give individual plots to their town's residents.

By default, Mayors and Assistants can claim townblocks for their town using '''/town claim'''.

Townblocks have an initial cost of $500 for the first chunk, and increase by 2.5% for each additional townblock (chunk) claimed. This means the second is $512.50, the third is $525, etc. This is capped at $100,000 per claim. Outposts are the same cost, but with an initial $250,000 to create an outpost.

== Town Upkeep ==
Town upkeep is the amount of money the server automatically removes from your town bank at the start of each Towny Day (a real day, not a Minecraft day), so that the town can continue to exist. Not having enough money in the town bank to pay upkeep means that your town will fall into '''Ruins'''. Players can use '''/town deposit <money>''' to manually transfer money from their balance to the town bank at any time. Town upkeep raises as you claim more Townblocks, so be sure to only claim what you can afford!

== Buying and Owning Plots ==
Every resident of your town—including the Mayor—can own town plots, where they can have their space to build on and use, as much space as the Mayor can or wants to give, that other residents cannot normally access. The town plots that a resident owns are called their resident plots. Residents have full access to their own resident plots, and all commands for them. Residents can own multiple and separated resident plots.

Residents have to buy a town plot first, to make it their own resident plot.

First, the Mayor must sell a town plot by using '''/plot forsale (price)''' while standing on a town plot.
Then, a resident (or the Mayor) can type '''/plot claim''' while standing in the town plot for sale, in order to buy it for the set price. The money is transferred from the resident's balance to the town bank.
To withdraw a plot from sale, you may type '''/plot notforsale'''.

A resident can use '''/plot unclaim''' while standing on one of their resident plots, in order to remove their ownership of it ("unclaim their resident plot").

Residents owning their own land is a necessary feature of any town, because the land residents use to build and protect their items on, is differentiated from the public town land. A well-organized town will generally allow each resident to have their resident plots in convenient locations around the town, with all of their resident plots close or next to each other.

== Outposts ==
Each group of claims that is separated from the main Town area is known as an '''Outpost'''. The first chunk claimed in a town outpost is called the town outpost spawnblock, and the location you are standing on in the claimed chunk is called the town outpost spawn.

To claim an area for an outpost, you can run '''/town claim outpost'''. To access the outpost, simply run '''/town outpost <outpost number/name>'''.

Outposts have a fee of $250,000 to create an outpost, and follow the same townblock cost progression as normal townblocks, seen above.

== Ruins ==
Ruins are created when a Town cannot afford to run anymore, all members leave, or someone deletes the town. While ruined, a town is subject to the following:
* Townblocks cannot be claimed by other towns.
** The town will be placed under the control of an NPC mayor.
*** The town can be griefed
**** The town's residents will not be able to execute most '''/town''' commands and no '''/plot''' commands.

''Note: If you delete a Town with money still in the Town Balance, the money will be lost. Remember to withdraw the money before deleting a town!''

== Hierarchy ==
Within the Town world are different levels of player hierarchy, which indicate where a player is at compared to the towns.

=== Nomads ===
Nomads are simply players who are not part of any town. They are landless players, searching for a place to call home.

=== Mayors ===
Mayors run towns and with the help of their assistants, manage a town and its residents.
Mayors can decide which ranks their residents fall into, in their town. Mayors also determine what sort of tax and tax rates, if any, the town will charge the residents.

=== Nation Leaders ===
Nation Leaders lead nations and are the mayor of the capital city. Leaders can decide which ranks their residents fall into in their nation.
Leaders also have the ability to set titles (prefixes) and surnames (postfixes) to the residents of the towns they have in their nation using:
'''/nation set title <player_name> <title>''' and
'''/nation set surname <player_name> <title>'''

== Town Shops ==
Town members can create shops within the town claims for other players to buy/sell items among the community. To create a shop:
* Place a Chest in the desired location
* Hold the item you want to buy/sell and type /iteminfo to get the item ID.
* Place a sign on or above the chest with the shop information
** Line One: Leave it BLANK!
** Line Two: Item Amount (However many you want to buy/sell of an item per transaction)
** Line Three: B#: S#: (Use B to sell items, use S to buy items. The # after B or S is the '''price'''.
* Line Four: Item Name/ID (if you can't figure out the item ID, or it is a custom item/crate item, you can put '''?''' in the slot and it will auto pull the info from the item in the chest)

= Lockable Chests =
The Town world has an additional grief prevention that allows players to lock their containers through '''/lwc'''. By default, when you place a container, it will be created as '''Private'''.
{| class="wikitable" style="font-weight:bold;"
|- style="text-align:center;"
! colspan="2" | Commonly Used LWC Commands
|-
| /lwc
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Using '''/lwc''' will list all of the lwc commands that are available to the player.
|-
| /cprivate
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Allows you to create a protection on the container.
|-
| /cmodify
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Allows you to modify the players allowed to access the chest, among other things.
|-
| /cremove -Player
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Removes a specified player from the container.
|-
| /cpassword <password>
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Adds a password to a specified container.
|-
| /cinfo
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Allows you to view information on a protected container.
|-
| /cprivate town:TownName
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Allows you to have a blanket protection for your Town members.
|-
| /cremove
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Removes protections from a container.
|-
| /lwc flag hopperin/hopperout off/on
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Allows containers to receive or deposit through hoppers.
|}

= Nations =
Being part of a nation is beneficial to towns for many reasons. Towns that have joined one can have extra protection from outsiders, are given more chunks to claim, and granted a variety of other gameplay benefits related to economy, influence, communication and community. A town that has joined a nation may also have to pay a daily town nation tax—in addition to upkeep—from its town bank. The town nation tax that your town pays every day is set by your nation's Leader, and it can be viewed by typing '''/towny prices''' (at the bottom).

Generally, your town can join a nation after being invited. The Mayor may accept a nation invitation by typing '''/accept (name of inviting nation)''' or deny it by typing '''/deny (name of inviting nation)'''.

On the other hand, if you do not wish to join a different nation, you can always make your own!
Being in a nation shapes a town's gameplay and strategy in multiple ways in both Towny and Nations.

Use '''/n (name of nation)''' to view a nation's nation information screen. Your own nation's nation information screen can be viewed by typing '''/n'''.

To create your nation, use '''/n new (name of nation)'''. You must be a Mayor in order to create a nation. This action removes money from the town bank.
The Mayor creating the nation is assigned its Leader (or King). A Leader has access to all commands for their nation. The town of the Mayor creating the nation, is declared the nation's capital town.
Invite other towns into your nation by using '''/n invite (name of town)'''. The town's Mayor or Comayors can use '''/accept (your nation's name)''' to join. To cancel an invite to a town, use '''/n invite -(name of town)'''.
You can remove a town from your nation by using '''/n kick (name of town)'''.
Change the border color of all towns in your nation, as seen in the Dynamic map, by typing '''/n set mapcolor (color)'''. (Make sure the color is unique, for better visibility!)

Any nation member can use '''/n deposit (amount of money)''' to transfer money from their balance to the nation bank. The Leader, Coleaders or Treasurers can withdraw money from the nation bank by using '''/n withdraw (amount of money)'''. The Leader, Coleaders, Chancellors and Treasurers can also view the bank transaction history of their nation bank for the current Towny day by typing '''/n bankhistory'''.

On Nations, players can also use the xp bank to deposit xp for storage. Any player can transfer to the xp bank using '''/n xpbank deposit (amount of xp/all)'''. The Leader, Coleaders or Xp Bankers can withdraw xp using '''/n xpbank withdraw (amount of xp/all)'''.

== Nation Upkeep ==
Nation upkeep is the amount of money that the server automatically removes from your nation bank at the start of each Towny day, so that the nation can continue to exist. More towns in the nation means higher nation upkeep to pay each day. Nation taxes are collected before nation upkeep.

== Nation Merging ==
Nation merging is the action of transferring the towns and nation bank of one nation to another.

The Leader or Coleader can request a nation to merge into their nation by using '''/n merge (foreign nation)'''. The other nation's Leader must be online and type '''/confirm''' if they wish the other nation to merge into theirs. Otherwise the Leader may type '''/cancel''' to deny the request.

The nation that receives and accepts the merge request will be dissolved—its Leader and other ranked nation members will lose all their nation ranks, its name will be removed from the server, and its towns and bank will be transferred to the other nation, if possible.

A Leader or Coleader of both nations involved must be online while the request and merger take place.

== Transferring Leadership ==
A Leader can pass the Leader rank (title and powers) to another nation member, by using '''/n set king (name of new king)'''. The player must be a Mayor of a town within the nation. The new Leader's town will be appointed the nation's capital town.
Similarly, using '''/n set capital (town name)''' appoints the specified town as the new capital town; its Mayor will be the new Leader of the nation.
In both cases (using either of the above commands), the Leader gives up their Leader rank, and their town is no longer the capital town of the nation. In addition, the nation spawn is removed when the capital town is changed.
The previous Leader will not have any nation ranks after giving up Leadership.

If you are considering passing Leadership to another player, only give it if you absolutely need to, and if you fully trust that person with the nation!

= Configuring Permissions =
*'''build''' - Permission to place blocks, boats, minecarts, item frames, armor stands; place items inside item frames
*'''destroy''' - Permission to break blocks; use a hoe or axe on blocks; eat cake.
*'''switch''' - Permission to use doors, trapdoors, fence gates, buttons, pressure plates, levers, composters, bells, lodestones, respawn anchors; open chests, barrels, shulker boxes, hoppers, dispensers, enchanting tables, furnaces, blast furnaces, smokers, looms, stonecutters, cartography tables, anvils, brewing stands, smithing tables, grindstones, lecterns, trapped chests, jukeboxes, minecarts with chest, minecarts with furnace, minecarts with hopper; trigger tripwire, pistons, sticky pistons; change the state of redstone components; change the rotation of items in item frames.
*'''itemuse''' - Permission to use the following active items: splash and lingering potions, eggs, ender pearls, eyes of ender, end crystals, chorus fruit, snowballs, fishing rods, bottles o' enchanting, bonemeal, dye, flint and steel; obtain water by using a bucket or glass bottle, and obtain lava by using a bucket; empty any buckets; attach a lead to an animal or fence; enter minecarts or boats; place and destroy minecarts or boats; use shears on sheep; place gear on armor stands and take gear from armor stands; access SlimeFun machines; bucket a fish or axolotl; dye signs' text.

== Permission Levels ==
*'''resident''' - All residents that are part of the town have a permission type in that unowned town plot.
*'''nation''' - All nation members of your own nation have a permission type in that unowned town plot.
*'''ally''' - All nation members of your allied nations have a permission type in that unowned town plot, but not nation members of your own nation.
*'''outsider''' - All players except the ones listed above have access to a permission type in that unowned town plot.

Plot Permission levels apply to resident plots:
*'''friend''' — All players in your friend list have a permission type in that resident plot.
*'''town''' — All residents that are part of your town have a permission type in that resident plot.
*'''ally''' — All nation members of your nation and your allied nations have a permission type in that resident plot.
*'''outsider''' — All players except the ones listed above have access to the permission type in that resident plot.

== Permission Categories ==
There are 4 categories of permissions to configure. Each category applies to certain town plots.

'''General town permissions''' and '''individual town permissions''' apply to '''unowned town plots'''. '''Resident permissions''' and '''plot permissions''' apply to '''resident plots'''. Town permissions become resident/plot permissions for a claim when a resident buys it, and resident/plot permissions become town permissions for it again when the resident's ownership of it is removed.

*Configure general town permissions for all unowned town plots in the town by using /t set perm '''(town permission level) (permission type) (on/off)'''
**General town permissions also apply when claiming a chunk from Wilderness.

*Configure '''individual town permissions''' for the '''unowned''' town plot you are standing on by using '''/plot set perm (town permission level) (permission type) (on/off)'''
**Individual town permissions override general town permissions—this practically means that configuring general town permissions, after configuring individual town permissions for an unowned town plot, will not change that unowned town plot's permission settings.

*Configure '''resident permissions''' for all your '''owned resident plots''' by using '''/res set perm (plot permission level) (permission type) (on/off)'''
**Resident permissions also apply when buying a town plot.

*Configure plot permissions for the resident plot you are standing on by using '''/plot set perm (plot permission level) (permission type) (on/off)'''
**Plot permissions override resident permissions—this practically means that configuring resident permissions, after configuring plot permissions for any of your resident plots, will not change that resident plot's permission settings.

= Trusting =
Trusting allows you to grant all permission types (build, destroy, switch, itemuse) for any claim in your town, to any player on the server.
*'''Town trusting''': To trust a player with '''all''' claims of your town, use '''/t trust add <playername>'''. To revoke a player's trust from the town, use '''/t trust remove <playername>'''.
Removing a player from being trusted does not necessarily mean that they stop having access to the town or the town plot. It means that the permissions you have configured for the town plot, will apply for them again.

= Town Board =
You can set a custom message for your town, called the town board. Use '''/t set board (message)''' to change your town's town board.

*The town's residents can view the town board when they enter the server, and in the town information screen.
*Other players can view your town board in your town's town information screen (/t (name of your town)).
*Anyone can view the town board in the Dynamic map.
To remove a town board, type '''/t set board none'''. This command also removes the message showing up for the town's residents when they enter the server.

Town

2023-05-19T21:59:18Z

CraydorGM: /* Ruins */

'''This page provides info on using the Towny plugin - but remember, you don't need to be in a town or claim your land! Grieifing is not allowed in the Town world, so feel free to build on the surface without claiming the land.

[[File:LionsParkNight.png|200px|thumb|right|Lions Park in the Town World]]
The Town world is a more relaxed approach at playing the server geared towards building communities and showing off your creativity. Towny offers no raiding, plots for your newcomers, and so much more! Start your Town adventures by visiting Lions Park at '''/warp town'''!

= Getting Started =
Mayors can start towns using the command '''/town new <town_name>''' for a set price. The townblock they're standing in will become the home block for the town (the exact spot/position will be the spawn point for the town - this can be changed using '''/town set spawn'''). If you decide to change the name of the town, you can always do so with '''/town set name <new name>'''.

Players can join established towns once they've been invited by the town's Mayor or Assistants.
= Town World Rules and Restrictions =
* Griefing, raiding, and obstructing other players in any way is not allowed.
* Valuable items cannot be stored in chests (this includes crate items, most gear, vouchers, etc.)
* Chem compounds can not be stored in chests (you can use your '''/chemtainer''' to store them cross-world)
* Automatic farms are not allowed (build them in the Factions world), and chunk hoppers are disabled.

= Towns =
Mayors and assistants can add players to their town with the command '''/town add <player_name>''' which will send an invite to the target player, giving them a prompt to either accept or deny the invitation. Mayors can also choose to have their town as public by using '''/town toggle open''', and players not already in a town can join open towns by using '''/town join <town_name>'''!

'''Note:''' Open towns can be viewed using the '''/town list by open''' command.

Every town has a homeblock that exists because towns must always have at least one chunk claimed. When creating a town, the chunk you are standing on becomes the first homeblock, and your exact position becomes the first town spawn. The town spawn is located within the homeblock chunk and it is indicated by particles on the ground.

In Towny, you can teleport back to your town spawn by typing '''/town spawn'''.
In Nations, you teleport to your town spawn after dying.
The location of the homeblock as well as the town spawn can be changed by the Mayor. To change the location of the homeblock, and where in your town people teleport to when using '''/town spawn''', you need to do '''/town set homeblock''' first and then '''/town set spawn'''. Your exact position will be the new town spawn.

The homeblock is an equivalent to the concept of the “town center”. The location of the town spawn and homeblock are best suited to a central place in the town, where residents have fast access to the rest of the town.

== Townblocks ==
Block protection is broken down into plots of land, called '''townblocks''', which by default are 16xYx16 (Y = the entire build limit). Townblocks are claimed by town mayors who can then sell/give individual plots to their town's residents.

By default, Mayors and Assistants can claim townblocks for their town using '''/town claim'''.

Townblocks have an initial cost of $500 for the first chunk, and increase by 2.5% for each additional townblock (chunk) claimed. This means the second is $512.50, the third is $525, etc. This is capped at $100,000 per claim. Outposts are the same cost, but with an initial $250,000 to create an outpost.

== Town Upkeep ==
Town upkeep is the amount of money the server automatically removes from your town bank at the start of each Towny Day (a real day, not a Minecraft day), so that the town can continue to exist. Not having enough money in the town bank to pay upkeep means that your town will fall into '''Ruins'''. Players can use '''/town deposit <money>''' to manually transfer money from their balance to the town bank at any time. Town upkeep raises as you claim more Townblocks, so be sure to only claim what you can afford!

== Buying and Owning Plots ==
Every resident of your town—including the Mayor—can own town plots, where they can have their space to build on and use, as much space as the Mayor can or wants to give, that other residents cannot normally access. The town plots that a resident owns are called their resident plots. Residents have full access to their own resident plots, and all commands for them. Residents can own multiple and separated resident plots.

Residents have to buy a town plot first, to make it their own resident plot.

First, the Mayor must sell a town plot by using '''/plot forsale (price)''' while standing on a town plot.
Then, a resident (or the Mayor) can type '''/plot claim''' while standing in the town plot for sale, in order to buy it for the set price. The money is transferred from the resident's balance to the town bank.
To withdraw a plot from sale, you may type '''/plot notforsale'''.

A resident can use '''/plot unclaim''' while standing on one of their resident plots, in order to remove their ownership of it ("unclaim their resident plot").

Residents owning their own land is a necessary feature of any town, because the land residents use to build and protect their items on, is differentiated from the public town land. A well-organized town will generally allow each resident to have their resident plots in convenient locations around the town, with all of their resident plots close or next to each other.

== Outposts ==
Each group of claims that is separated from the main Town area is known as an '''Outpost'''. The first chunk claimed in a town outpost is called the town outpost spawnblock, and the location you are standing on in the claimed chunk is called the town outpost spawn.

To claim an area for an outpost, you can run '''/town claim outpost'''. To access the outpost, simply run '''/town outpost <outpost number/name>'''.

Outposts have a fee of $250,000 to create an outpost, and follow the same townblock cost progression as normal townblocks, seen above.

== Ruins ==
Ruins are created when a Town cannot afford to run anymore, all members leave, or someone deletes the town. While ruined, a town is subject to the following:
* Townblocks cannot be claimed by other towns.
** The town will be placed under the control of an NPC mayor.
*** The town can be griefed
**** The town's residents will not be able to execute most '''/town''' commands and no '''/plot''' commands.

''Note: If you delete a Town with money still in the Town Balance, the money will be lost. Remember to withdraw the money before deleting a town!''

== Hierarchy ==
Within the Town world are different levels of player hierarchy, which indicate where a player is at compared to the towns.

=== Nomads ===
Nomads are simply players who are not part of any town. They are landless players, searching for a place to call home.

=== Mayors ===
Mayors run towns and with the help of their assistants, manage a town and its residents.
Mayors can decide which ranks their residents fall into, in their town. Mayors also determine what sort of tax and tax rates, if any, the town will charge the residents.

=== Nation Leaders ===
Nation Leaders lead nations and are the mayor of the capital city. Leaders can decide which ranks their residents fall into in their nation.
Leaders also have the ability to set titles (prefixes) and surnames (postfixes) to the residents of the towns they have in their nation using:
'''/nation set title <player_name> <title>''' and
'''/nation set surname <player_name> <title>'''

== Town Shops ==
Town members can create shops within the town claims for other players to buy/sell items among the community. To create a shop:
* Place a Chest in the desired location
* Hold the item you want to buy/sell and type /iteminfo to get the item ID.
* Place a sign on or above the chest with the shop information
** Line One: Leave it BLANK!
** Line Two: Item Amount (However many you want to buy/sell of an item per transaction)
** Line Three: B#: S#: (Use B to sell items, use S to buy items. The # after B or S is the '''price'''.
* Line Four: Item Name/ID (if you can't figure out the item ID, or it is a custom item/crate item, you can put '''?''' in the slot and it will auto pull the info from the item in the chest)

= Lockable Chests =
The Town world has an additional grief prevention that allows players to lock their containers through '''/lwc'''. By default, when you place a container, it will be created as '''Private'''.
{| class="wikitable" style="font-weight:bold;"
|- style="text-align:center;"
! colspan="2" | Commonly Used LWC Commands
|-
| /lwc
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Using '''/lwc''' will list all of the lwc commands that are available to the player.
|-
| /cprivate
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Allows you to create a protection on the container.
|-
| /cmodify
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Allows you to modify the players allowed to access the chest, among other things.
|-
| /cremove -Player
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Removes a specified player from the container.
|-
| /cpassword <password>
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Adds a password to a specified container.
|-
| /cinfo
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Allows you to view information on a protected container.
|-
| /cprivate town:TownName
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Allows you to have a blanket protection for your Town members.
|-
| /cremove
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Removes protections from a container.
|-
| /lwc flag hopperin/hopperout off/on
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Allows containers to receive or deposit through hoppers.
|}

= Nations =
Being part of a nation is beneficial to towns for many reasons. Towns that have joined one can have extra protection from outsiders, are given more chunks to claim, and granted a variety of other gameplay benefits related to economy, influence, communication and community. A town that has joined a nation may also have to pay a daily town nation tax—in addition to upkeep—from its town bank. The town nation tax that your town pays every day is set by your nation's Leader, and it can be viewed by typing '''/towny prices''' (at the bottom).

Generally, your town can join a nation after being invited. The Mayor may accept a nation invitation by typing '''/accept (name of inviting nation)''' or deny it by typing '''/deny (name of inviting nation)'''.

On the other hand, if you do not wish to join a different nation, you can always make your own!
Being in a nation shapes a town's gameplay and strategy in multiple ways in both Towny and Nations.

Use '''/n (name of nation)''' to view a nation's nation information screen. Your own nation's nation information screen can be viewed by typing '''/n'''.

To create your nation, use '''/n new (name of nation)'''. You must be a Mayor in order to create a nation. This action removes money from the town bank.
The Mayor creating the nation is assigned its Leader (or King). A Leader has access to all commands for their nation. The town of the Mayor creating the nation, is declared the nation's capital town.
Invite other towns into your nation by using '''/n invite (name of town)'''. The town's Mayor or Comayors can use '''/accept (your nation's name)''' to join. To cancel an invite to a town, use '''/n invite -(name of town)'''.
You can remove a town from your nation by using '''/n kick (name of town)'''.
Change the border color of all towns in your nation, as seen in the Dynamic map, by typing '''/n set mapcolor (color)'''. (Make sure the color is unique, for better visibility!)

Any nation member can use '''/n deposit (amount of money)''' to transfer money from their balance to the nation bank. The Leader, Coleaders or Treasurers can withdraw money from the nation bank by using '''/n withdraw (amount of money)'''. The Leader, Coleaders, Chancellors and Treasurers can also view the bank transaction history of their nation bank for the current Towny day by typing '''/n bankhistory'''.

On Nations, players can also use the xp bank to deposit xp for storage. Any player can transfer to the xp bank using '''/n xpbank deposit (amount of xp/all)'''. The Leader, Coleaders or Xp Bankers can withdraw xp using '''/n xpbank withdraw (amount of xp/all)'''.

== Nation Upkeep ==
Nation upkeep is the amount of money that the server automatically removes from your nation bank at the start of each Towny day, so that the nation can continue to exist. More towns in the nation means higher nation upkeep to pay each day. Nation taxes are collected before nation upkeep.

== Nation Merging ==
Nation merging is the action of transferring the towns and nation bank of one nation to another.

The Leader or Coleader can request a nation to merge into their nation by using '''/n merge (foreign nation)'''. The other nation's Leader must be online and type '''/confirm''' if they wish the other nation to merge into theirs. Otherwise the Leader may type '''/cancel''' to deny the request.

The nation that receives and accepts the merge request will be dissolved—its Leader and other ranked nation members will lose all their nation ranks, its name will be removed from the server, and its towns and bank will be transferred to the other nation, if possible.

A Leader or Coleader of both nations involved must be online while the request and merger take place.

== Transferring Leadership ==
A Leader can pass the Leader rank (title and powers) to another nation member, by using '''/n set king (name of new king)'''. The player must be a Mayor of a town within the nation. The new Leader's town will be appointed the nation's capital town.
Similarly, using '''/n set capital (town name)''' appoints the specified town as the new capital town; its Mayor will be the new Leader of the nation.
In both cases (using either of the above commands), the Leader gives up their Leader rank, and their town is no longer the capital town of the nation. In addition, the nation spawn is removed when the capital town is changed.
The previous Leader will not have any nation ranks after giving up Leadership.

If you are considering passing Leadership to another player, only give it if you absolutely need to, and if you fully trust that person with the nation!

= Configuring Permissions =
*'''build''' - Permission to place blocks, boats, minecarts, item frames, armor stands; place items inside item frames
*'''destroy''' - Permission to break blocks; use a hoe or axe on blocks; eat cake.
*'''switch''' - Permission to use doors, trapdoors, fence gates, buttons, pressure plates, levers, composters, bells, lodestones, respawn anchors; open chests, barrels, shulker boxes, hoppers, dispensers, enchanting tables, furnaces, blast furnaces, smokers, looms, stonecutters, cartography tables, anvils, brewing stands, smithing tables, grindstones, lecterns, trapped chests, jukeboxes, minecarts with chest, minecarts with furnace, minecarts with hopper; trigger tripwire, pistons, sticky pistons; change the state of redstone components; change the rotation of items in item frames.
*'''itemuse''' - Permission to use the following active items: splash and lingering potions, eggs, ender pearls, eyes of ender, end crystals, chorus fruit, snowballs, fishing rods, bottles o' enchanting, bonemeal, dye, flint and steel; obtain water by using a bucket or glass bottle, and obtain lava by using a bucket; empty any buckets; attach a lead to an animal or fence; enter minecarts or boats; place and destroy minecarts or boats; use shears on sheep; place gear on armor stands and take gear from armor stands; access SlimeFun machines; bucket a fish or axolotl; dye signs' text.

== Permission Levels ==
*'''resident''' - All residents that are part of the town have a permission type in that unowned town plot.
*'''nation''' - All nation members of your own nation have a permission type in that unowned town plot.
*'''ally''' - All nation members of your allied nations have a permission type in that unowned town plot, but not nation members of your own nation.
*'''outsider''' - All players except the ones listed above have access to a permission type in that unowned town plot.

Plot Permission levels apply to resident plots:
*'''friend''' — All players in your friend list have a permission type in that resident plot.
*'''town''' — All residents that are part of your town have a permission type in that resident plot.
*'''ally''' — All nation members of your nation and your allied nations have a permission type in that resident plot.
*'''outsider''' — All players except the ones listed above have access to the permission type in that resident plot.

== Permission Categories ==
There are 4 categories of permissions to configure. Each category applies to certain town plots.

'''General town permissions''' and '''individual town permissions''' apply to '''unowned town plots'''. '''Resident permissions''' and '''plot permissions''' apply to '''resident plots'''. Town permissions become resident/plot permissions for a claim when a resident buys it, and resident/plot permissions become town permissions for it again when the resident's ownership of it is removed.

*Configure general town permissions for all unowned town plots in the town by using /t set perm '''(town permission level) (permission type) (on/off)'''
**General town permissions also apply when claiming a chunk from Wilderness.

*Configure '''individual town permissions''' for the '''unowned''' town plot you are standing on by using '''/plot set perm (town permission level) (permission type) (on/off)'''
**Individual town permissions override general town permissions—this practically means that configuring general town permissions, after configuring individual town permissions for an unowned town plot, will not change that unowned town plot's permission settings.

*Configure '''resident permissions''' for all your '''owned resident plots''' by using '''/res set perm (plot permission level) (permission type) (on/off)'''
**Resident permissions also apply when buying a town plot.

*Configure plot permissions for the resident plot you are standing on by using '''/plot set perm (plot permission level) (permission type) (on/off)'''
**Plot permissions override resident permissions—this practically means that configuring resident permissions, after configuring plot permissions for any of your resident plots, will not change that resident plot's permission settings.

= Trusting =
Trusting allows you to grant all permission types (build, destroy, switch, itemuse) for any claim in your town, to any player on the server.
*'''Town trusting''': To trust a player with '''all''' claims of your town, use '''/t trust add <playername>'''. To revoke a player's trust from the town, use '''/t trust remove <playername>'''.
Removing a player from being trusted does not necessarily mean that they stop having access to the town or the town plot. It means that the permissions you have configured for the town plot, will apply for them again.

= Town Board =
You can set a custom message for your town, called the town board. Use '''/t set board (message)''' to change your town's town board.

*The town's residents can view the town board when they enter the server, and in the town information screen.
*Other players can view your town board in your town's town information screen (/t (name of your town)).
*Anyone can view the town board in the Dynamic map.
To remove a town board, type '''/t set board none'''. This command also removes the message showing up for the town's residents when they enter the server.

Mayors can start towns using the command '''/town new <town_name>''' for a set price. The townblock they're standing in will become the home block for the town (the exact spot/position will be the spawn point for the town - this can be changed using '''/town set spawn'''). If you decide to change the name of the town, you can always do so with '''/town set name <new name>'''.

Players can join established towns once they've been invited by the town's Mayor or Assistants.
= Town World Rules and Restrictions =
* Griefing, raiding, and obstructing other players in any way is not allowed.
* Valuable items cannot be stored in chests (this includes crate items, most gear, vouchers, etc.)
* Chem compounds can not be stored in chests (you can use your '''/chemtainer''' to store them cross-world)
* Automatic farms are not allowed (build them in the Factions world), and chunk hoppers are disabled.

= Towns =
Mayors and assistants can add players to their town with the command '''/town add <player_name>''' which will send an invite to the target player, giving them a prompt to either accept or deny the invitation. Mayors can also choose to have their town as public by using '''/town toggle open''', and players not already in a town can join open towns by using '''/town join <town_name>'''!

'''Note:''' Open towns can be viewed using the '''/town list by open''' command.

Every town has a homeblock that exists because towns must always have at least one chunk claimed. When creating a town, the chunk you are standing on becomes the first homeblock, and your exact position becomes the first town spawn. The town spawn is located within the homeblock chunk and it is indicated by particles on the ground.

In Towny, you can teleport back to your town spawn by typing '''/town spawn'''.
In Nations, you teleport to your town spawn after dying.
The location of the homeblock as well as the town spawn can be changed by the Mayor. To change the location of the homeblock, and where in your town people teleport to when using '''/town spawn''', you need to do '''/town set homeblock''' first and then '''/town set spawn'''. Your exact position will be the new town spawn.

The homeblock is an equivalent to the concept of the “town center”. The location of the town spawn and homeblock are best suited to a central place in the town, where residents have fast access to the rest of the town.

== Townblocks ==
Block protection is broken down into plots of land, called '''townblocks''', which by default are 16xYx16 (Y = the entire build limit). Townblocks are claimed by town mayors who can then sell/give individual plots to their town's residents.

By default, Mayors and Assistants can claim townblocks for their town using '''/town claim'''.

Townblocks have an initial cost of $500 for the first chunk, and increase by 2.5% for each additional townblock (chunk) claimed. This means the second is $512.50, the third is $525, etc. This is capped at $100,000 per claim. Outposts are the same cost, but with an initial $250,000 to create an outpost.

== Town Upkeep ==
Town upkeep is the amount of money the server automatically removes from your town bank at the start of each Towny Day (a real day, not a Minecraft day), so that the town can continue to exist. Not having enough money in the town bank to pay upkeep means that your town will fall into '''Ruins'''. Players can use '''/town deposit <money>''' to manually transfer money from their balance to the town bank at any time. Town upkeep raises as you claim more Townblocks, so be sure to only claim what you can afford!

== Buying and Owning Plots ==
Every resident of your town—including the Mayor—can own town plots, where they can have their space to build on and use, as much space as the Mayor can or wants to give, that other residents cannot normally access. The town plots that a resident owns are called their resident plots. Residents have full access to their own resident plots, and all commands for them. Residents can own multiple and separated resident plots.

Residents have to buy a town plot first, to make it their own resident plot.

First, the Mayor must sell a town plot by using '''/plot forsale (price)''' while standing on a town plot.
Then, a resident (or the Mayor) can type '''/plot claim''' while standing in the town plot for sale, in order to buy it for the set price. The money is transferred from the resident's balance to the town bank.
To withdraw a plot from sale, you may type '''/plot notforsale'''.

A resident can use '''/plot unclaim''' while standing on one of their resident plots, in order to remove their ownership of it ("unclaim their resident plot").

Residents owning their own land is a necessary feature of any town, because the land residents use to build and protect their items on, is differentiated from the public town land. A well-organized town will generally allow each resident to have their resident plots in convenient locations around the town, with all of their resident plots close or next to each other.

== Outposts ==
Each group of claims that is separated from the main Town area is known as an '''Outpost'''. The first chunk claimed in a town outpost is called the town outpost spawnblock, and the location you are standing on in the claimed chunk is called the town outpost spawn.

To claim an area for an outpost, you can run '''/town claim outpost'''. To access the outpost, simply run '''/town outpost <outpost number/name>'''.

Outposts have a fee of $250,000 to create an outpost, and follow the same townblock cost progression as normal townblocks, seen above.

== Ruins ==
Ruins are created when a Town cannot afford to run anymore, all members leave, or someone deletes the town. While ruined, a town is subject to the following:
* Townblocks cannot be claimed by other towns.
** The town will be placed under the control of an NPC mayor.
*** The town can be griefed
**** The town's residents will not be able to execute most '''/town''' commands and no '''/plot''' commands.

== Hierarchy ==
Within the Town world are different levels of player hierarchy, which indicate where a player is at compared to the towns.

=== Nomads ===
Nomads are simply players who are not part of any town. They are landless players, searching for a place to call home.

=== Mayors ===
Mayors run towns and with the help of their assistants, manage a town and its residents.
Mayors can decide which ranks their residents fall into, in their town. Mayors also determine what sort of tax and tax rates, if any, the town will charge the residents.

=== Nation Leaders ===
Nation Leaders lead nations and are the mayor of the capital city. Leaders can decide which ranks their residents fall into in their nation.
Leaders also have the ability to set titles (prefixes) and surnames (postfixes) to the residents of the towns they have in their nation using:
'''/nation set title <player_name> <title>''' and
'''/nation set surname <player_name> <title>'''

== Town Shops ==
Town members can create shops within the town claims for other players to buy/sell items among the community. To create a shop:
* Place a Chest in the desired location
* Hold the item you want to buy/sell and type /iteminfo to get the item ID.
* Place a sign on or above the chest with the shop information
** Line One: Leave it BLANK!
** Line Two: Item Amount (However many you want to buy/sell of an item per transaction)
** Line Three: B#: S#: (Use B to sell items, use S to buy items. The # after B or S is the '''price'''.
* Line Four: Item Name/ID (if you can't figure out the item ID, or it is a custom item/crate item, you can put '''?''' in the slot and it will auto pull the info from the item in the chest)

= Lockable Chests =
The Town world has an additional grief prevention that allows players to lock their containers through '''/lwc'''. By default, when you place a container, it will be created as '''Private'''.
{| class="wikitable" style="font-weight:bold;"
|- style="text-align:center;"

= Nations =
Being part of a nation is beneficial to towns for many reasons. Towns that have joined one can have extra protection from outsiders, are given more chunks to claim, and granted a variety of other gameplay benefits related to economy, influence, communication and community. A town that has joined a nation may also have to pay a daily town nation tax—in addition to upkeep—from its town bank. The town nation tax that your town pays every day is set by your nation's Leader, and it can be viewed by typing '''/towny prices''' (at the bottom).

Generally, your town can join a nation after being invited. The Mayor may accept a nation invitation by typing '''/accept (name of inviting nation)''' or deny it by typing '''/deny (name of inviting nation)'''.

On the other hand, if you do not wish to join a different nation, you can always make your own!
Being in a nation shapes a town's gameplay and strategy in multiple ways in both Towny and Nations.

Use '''/n (name of nation)''' to view a nation's nation information screen. Your own nation's nation information screen can be viewed by typing '''/n'''.

To create your nation, use '''/n new (name of nation)'''. You must be a Mayor in order to create a nation. This action removes money from the town bank.
The Mayor creating the nation is assigned its Leader (or King). A Leader has access to all commands for their nation. The town of the Mayor creating the nation, is declared the nation's capital town.
Invite other towns into your nation by using '''/n invite (name of town)'''. The town's Mayor or Comayors can use '''/accept (your nation's name)''' to join. To cancel an invite to a town, use '''/n invite -(name of town)'''.
You can remove a town from your nation by using '''/n kick (name of town)'''.
Change the border color of all towns in your nation, as seen in the Dynamic map, by typing '''/n set mapcolor (color)'''. (Make sure the color is unique, for better visibility!)

Any nation member can use '''/n deposit (amount of money)''' to transfer money from their balance to the nation bank. The Leader, Coleaders or Treasurers can withdraw money from the nation bank by using '''/n withdraw (amount of money)'''. The Leader, Coleaders, Chancellors and Treasurers can also view the bank transaction history of their nation bank for the current Towny day by typing '''/n bankhistory'''.

On Nations, players can also use the xp bank to deposit xp for storage. Any player can transfer to the xp bank using '''/n xpbank deposit (amount of xp/all)'''. The Leader, Coleaders or Xp Bankers can withdraw xp using '''/n xpbank withdraw (amount of xp/all)'''.

== Nation Upkeep ==
Nation upkeep is the amount of money that the server automatically removes from your nation bank at the start of each Towny day, so that the nation can continue to exist. More towns in the nation means higher nation upkeep to pay each day. Nation taxes are collected before nation upkeep.

== Nation Merging ==
Nation merging is the action of transferring the towns and nation bank of one nation to another.

The Leader or Coleader can request a nation to merge into their nation by using '''/n merge (foreign nation)'''. The other nation's Leader must be online and type '''/confirm''' if they wish the other nation to merge into theirs. Otherwise the Leader may type '''/cancel''' to deny the request.

The nation that receives and accepts the merge request will be dissolved—its Leader and other ranked nation members will lose all their nation ranks, its name will be removed from the server, and its towns and bank will be transferred to the other nation, if possible.

A Leader or Coleader of both nations involved must be online while the request and merger take place.

== Transferring Leadership ==
A Leader can pass the Leader rank (title and powers) to another nation member, by using '''/n set king (name of new king)'''. The player must be a Mayor of a town within the nation. The new Leader's town will be appointed the nation's capital town.
Similarly, using '''/n set capital (town name)''' appoints the specified town as the new capital town; its Mayor will be the new Leader of the nation.
In both cases (using either of the above commands), the Leader gives up their Leader rank, and their town is no longer the capital town of the nation. In addition, the nation spawn is removed when the capital town is changed.
The previous Leader will not have any nation ranks after giving up Leadership.

If you are considering passing Leadership to another player, only give it if you absolutely need to, and if you fully trust that person with the nation!

= Configuring Permissions =
*'''build''' - Permission to place blocks, boats, minecarts, item frames, armor stands; place items inside item frames
*'''destroy''' - Permission to break blocks; use a hoe or axe on blocks; eat cake.
*'''switch''' - Permission to use doors, trapdoors, fence gates, buttons, pressure plates, levers, composters, bells, lodestones, respawn anchors; open chests, barrels, shulker boxes, hoppers, dispensers, enchanting tables, furnaces, blast furnaces, smokers, looms, stonecutters, cartography tables, anvils, brewing stands, smithing tables, grindstones, lecterns, trapped chests, jukeboxes, minecarts with chest, minecarts with furnace, minecarts with hopper; trigger tripwire, pistons, sticky pistons; change the state of redstone components; change the rotation of items in item frames.
*'''itemuse''' - Permission to use the following active items: splash and lingering potions, eggs, ender pearls, eyes of ender, end crystals, chorus fruit, snowballs, fishing rods, bottles o' enchanting, bonemeal, dye, flint and steel; obtain water by using a bucket or glass bottle, and obtain lava by using a bucket; empty any buckets; attach a lead to an animal or fence; enter minecarts or boats; place and destroy minecarts or boats; use shears on sheep; place gear on armor stands and take gear from armor stands; access SlimeFun machines; bucket a fish or axolotl; dye signs' text.

== Permission Levels ==
*'''resident''' - All residents that are part of the town have a permission type in that unowned town plot.
*'''nation''' - All nation members of your own nation have a permission type in that unowned town plot.
*'''ally''' - All nation members of your allied nations have a permission type in that unowned town plot, but not nation members of your own nation.
*'''outsider''' - All players except the ones listed above have access to a permission type in that unowned town plot.

Plot Permission levels apply to resident plots:
*'''friend''' — All players in your friend list have a permission type in that resident plot.
*'''town''' — All residents that are part of your town have a permission type in that resident plot.
*'''ally''' — All nation members of your nation and your allied nations have a permission type in that resident plot.
*'''outsider''' — All players except the ones listed above have access to the permission type in that resident plot.

== Permission Categories ==
There are 4 categories of permissions to configure. Each category applies to certain town plots.

'''General town permissions''' and '''individual town permissions''' apply to '''unowned town plots'''. '''Resident permissions''' and '''plot permissions''' apply to '''resident plots'''. Town permissions become resident/plot permissions for a claim when a resident buys it, and resident/plot permissions become town permissions for it again when the resident's ownership of it is removed.

*Configure general town permissions for all unowned town plots in the town by using /t set perm '''(town permission level) (permission type) (on/off)'''
**General town permissions also apply when claiming a chunk from Wilderness.

*Configure '''individual town permissions''' for the '''unowned''' town plot you are standing on by using '''/plot set perm (town permission level) (permission type) (on/off)'''
**Individual town permissions override general town permissions—this practically means that configuring general town permissions, after configuring individual town permissions for an unowned town plot, will not change that unowned town plot's permission settings.

*Configure '''resident permissions''' for all your '''owned resident plots''' by using '''/res set perm (plot permission level) (permission type) (on/off)'''
**Resident permissions also apply when buying a town plot.

*Configure plot permissions for the resident plot you are standing on by using '''/plot set perm (plot permission level) (permission type) (on/off)'''
**Plot permissions override resident permissions—this practically means that configuring resident permissions, after configuring plot permissions for any of your resident plots, will not change that resident plot's permission settings.

= Trusting =
Trusting allows you to grant all permission types (build, destroy, switch, itemuse) for any claim in your town, to any player on the server.
*'''Town trusting''': To trust a player with '''all''' claims of your town, use '''/t trust add <playername>'''. To revoke a player's trust from the town, use '''/t trust remove <playername>'''.
Removing a player from being trusted does not necessarily mean that they stop having access to the town or the town plot. It means that the permissions you have configured for the town plot, will apply for them again.

= Town Board =
You can set a custom message for your town, called the town board. Use '''/t set board (message)''' to change your town's town board.

*The town's residents can view the town board when they enter the server, and in the town information screen.
*Other players can view your town board in your town's town information screen (/t (name of your town)).
*Anyone can view the town board in the Dynamic map.
To remove a town board, type '''/t set board none'''. This command also removes the message showing up for the town's residents when they enter the server.

CraydorGM:

'''This page provides info on using the Towny plugin - but remember, you don't need to be in a town or claim your land! Grieifing is not allowed in the Town world, so feel free to build on the surface without claiming the land.

[[File:LionsParkNight.png|200px|thumb|right|Lions Park in the Town World]]
The Town world is a more relaxed approach at playing the server geared towards building communities and showing off your creativity. Towny offers no raiding, plots for your newcomers, and so much more! Start your Town adventures by visiting Lions Park at '''/warp town'''!

= Getting Started =
Mayors can start towns using the command '''/town new <town_name>''' for a set price. The townblock they're standing in will become the home block for the town (the exact spot/position will be the spawn point for the town - this can be changed using '''/town set spawn'''). If you decide to change the name of the town, you can always do so with '''/town set name <new name>'''.

Players can join established towns once they've been invited by the town's Mayor or Assistants.
= Town World Rules and Restrictions =
* Griefing, raiding, and obstructing other players in any way is not allowed.
* Valuable items cannot be stored in chests (this includes crate items, most gear, vouchers, etc.)
* Chem compounds can not be stored in chests (you can use your '''/chemtainer''' to store them cross-world)
* Automatic farms are not allowed (build them in the Factions world), and chunk hoppers are disabled.

= Towns =
Mayors and assistants can add players to their town with the command '''/town add <player_name>''' which will send an invite to the target player, giving them a prompt to either accept or deny the invitation. Mayors can also choose to have their town as public by using '''/town toggle open''', and players not already in a town can join open towns by using '''/town join <town_name>'''!

'''Note:''' Open towns can be viewed using the '''/town list by open''' command.

Every town has a homeblock that exists because towns must always have at least one chunk claimed. When creating a town, the chunk you are standing on becomes the first homeblock, and your exact position becomes the first town spawn. The town spawn is located within the homeblock chunk and it is indicated by particles on the ground.

In Towny, you can teleport back to your town spawn by typing '''/town spawn'''.
In Nations, you teleport to your town spawn after dying.
The location of the homeblock as well as the town spawn can be changed by the Mayor. To change the location of the homeblock, and where in your town people teleport to when using '''/town spawn''', you need to do '''/town set homeblock''' first and then '''/town set spawn'''. Your exact position will be the new town spawn.

The homeblock is an equivalent to the concept of the “town center”. The location of the town spawn and homeblock are best suited to a central place in the town, where residents have fast access to the rest of the town.

== Townblocks ==
Block protection is broken down into plots of land, called '''townblocks''', which by default are 16xYx16 (Y = the entire build limit). Townblocks are claimed by town mayors who can then sell/give individual plots to their town's residents.

By default, Mayors and Assistants can claim townblocks for their town using '''/town claim'''.

Townblocks have an initial cost of $500 for the first chunk, and increase by 2.5% for each additional townblock (chunk) claimed. This means the second is $512.50, the third is $525, etc. This is capped at $100,000 per claim. Outposts are the same cost, but with an initial $250,000 to create an outpost.

== Town Upkeep ==
Town upkeep is the amount of money the server automatically removes from your town bank at the start of each Towny Day (a real day, not a Minecraft day), so that the town can continue to exist. Not having enough money in the town bank to pay upkeep means that your town will fall into '''Ruins'''. Players can use '''/town deposit <money>''' to manually transfer money from their balance to the town bank at any time. Town upkeep raises as you claim more Townblocks, so be sure to only claim what you can afford!

== Buying and Owning Plots ==
Every resident of your town—including the Mayor—can own town plots, where they can have their space to build on and use, as much space as the Mayor can or wants to give, that other residents cannot normally access. The town plots that a resident owns are called their resident plots. Residents have full access to their own resident plots, and all commands for them. Residents can own multiple and separated resident plots.

Residents have to buy a town plot first, to make it their own resident plot.

First, the Mayor must sell a town plot by using '''/plot forsale (price)''' while standing on a town plot.
Then, a resident (or the Mayor) can type '''/plot claim''' while standing in the town plot for sale, in order to buy it for the set price. The money is transferred from the resident's balance to the town bank.
To withdraw a plot from sale, you may type '''/plot notforsale'''.

A resident can use '''/plot unclaim''' while standing on one of their resident plots, in order to remove their ownership of it ("unclaim their resident plot").

Residents owning their own land is a necessary feature of any town, because the land residents use to build and protect their items on, is differentiated from the public town land. A well-organized town will generally allow each resident to have their resident plots in convenient locations around the town, with all of their resident plots close or next to each other.

== Outposts ==
Each group of claims that is separated from the main Town area is known as an '''Outpost'''. The first chunk claimed in a town outpost is called the town outpost spawnblock, and the location you are standing on in the claimed chunk is called the town outpost spawn.

To claim an area for an outpost, you can run '''/town claim outpost'''. To access the outpost, simply run '''/town outpost <outpost number/name>'''.

Outposts have a fee of $250,000 to create an outpost, and follow the same townblock cost progression as normal townblocks, seen above.

== Ruins ==
Ruins are created when a Town cannot afford to run anymore, all members leave, or someone deletes the town. While ruined, a town is subject to the following:
* Townblocks cannot be claimed by other towns.
** The town will be placed under the control of an NPC mayor.
*** The town can be griefed
**** The town's residents will not be able to execute most '''/town''' commands and no '''/plot''' commands.

== Hierarchy ==
Within the Town world are different levels of player hierarchy, which indicate where a player is at compared to the towns.

=== Nomads ===
Nomads are simply players who are not part of any town. They are landless players, searching for a place to call home.

Mayors run towns and with the help of their assistants, manage a town and its residents.
Mayors can decide which ranks their residents fall into, in their town. Mayors also determine what sort of tax and tax rates, if any, the town will charge the residents.

=== Nation Leaders ===
Nation Leaders lead nations and are the mayor of the capital city. Leaders can decide which ranks their residents fall into in their nation.
Leaders also have the ability to set titles (prefixes) and surnames (postfixes) to the residents of the towns they have in their nation using:
'''/nation set title <player_name> <title>''' and
'''/nation set surname <player_name> <title>'''

== Town Shops ==
Town members can create shops within the town claims for other players to buy/sell items among the community. To create a shop:
* Place a Chest in the desired location
* Hold the item you want to buy/sell and type /iteminfo to get the item ID.
* Place a sign on or above the chest with the shop information
** Line One: Leave it BLANK!
** Line Two: Item Amount (However many you want to buy/sell of an item per transaction)
** Line Three: B#: S#: (Use B to sell items, use S to buy items. The # after B or S is the '''price'''.
* Line Four: Item Name/ID (if you can't figure out the item ID, or it is a custom item/crate item, you can put '''?''' in the slot and it will auto pull the info from the item in the chest)

= Lockable Chests =
The Town world has an additional grief prevention that allows players to lock their containers through '''/lwc'''. By default, when you place a container, it will be created as '''Private'''.

= Nations =
Being part of a nation is beneficial to towns for many reasons. Towns that have joined one can have extra protection from outsiders, are given more chunks to claim, and granted a variety of other gameplay benefits related to economy, influence, communication and community. A town that has joined a nation may also have to pay a daily town nation tax—in addition to upkeep—from its town bank. The town nation tax that your town pays every day is set by your nation's Leader, and it can be viewed by typing '''/towny prices''' (at the bottom).

Generally, your town can join a nation after being invited. The Mayor may accept a nation invitation by typing '''/accept (name of inviting nation)''' or deny it by typing '''/deny (name of inviting nation)'''.

On the other hand, if you do not wish to join a different nation, you can always make your own!
Being in a nation shapes a town's gameplay and strategy in multiple ways in both Towny and Nations.

Use '''/n (name of nation)''' to view a nation's nation information screen. Your own nation's nation information screen can be viewed by typing '''/n'''.

To create your nation, use '''/n new (name of nation)'''. You must be a Mayor in order to create a nation. This action removes money from the town bank.
The Mayor creating the nation is assigned its Leader (or King). A Leader has access to all commands for their nation. The town of the Mayor creating the nation, is declared the nation's capital town.
Invite other towns into your nation by using '''/n invite (name of town)'''. The town's Mayor or Comayors can use '''/accept (your nation's name)''' to join. To cancel an invite to a town, use '''/n invite -(name of town)'''.
You can remove a town from your nation by using '''/n kick (name of town)'''.
Change the border color of all towns in your nation, as seen in the Dynamic map, by typing '''/n set mapcolor (color)'''. (Make sure the color is unique, for better visibility!)

Any nation member can use '''/n deposit (amount of money)''' to transfer money from their balance to the nation bank. The Leader, Coleaders or Treasurers can withdraw money from the nation bank by using '''/n withdraw (amount of money)'''. The Leader, Coleaders, Chancellors and Treasurers can also view the bank transaction history of their nation bank for the current Towny day by typing '''/n bankhistory'''.

On Nations, players can also use the xp bank to deposit xp for storage. Any player can transfer to the xp bank using '''/n xpbank deposit (amount of xp/all)'''. The Leader, Coleaders or Xp Bankers can withdraw xp using '''/n xpbank withdraw (amount of xp/all)'''.

== Nation Upkeep ==
Nation upkeep is the amount of money that the server automatically removes from your nation bank at the start of each Towny day, so that the nation can continue to exist. More towns in the nation means higher nation upkeep to pay each day. Nation taxes are collected before nation upkeep.

== Nation Merging ==
Nation merging is the action of transferring the towns and nation bank of one nation to another.

The Leader or Coleader can request a nation to merge into their nation by using '''/n merge (foreign nation)'''. The other nation's Leader must be online and type '''/confirm''' if they wish the other nation to merge into theirs. Otherwise the Leader may type '''/cancel''' to deny the request.

The nation that receives and accepts the merge request will be dissolved—its Leader and other ranked nation members will lose all their nation ranks, its name will be removed from the server, and its towns and bank will be transferred to the other nation, if possible.

A Leader or Coleader of both nations involved must be online while the request and merger take place.

== Transferring Leadership ==
A Leader can pass the Leader rank (title and powers) to another nation member, by using '''/n set king (name of new king)'''. The player must be a Mayor of a town within the nation. The new Leader's town will be appointed the nation's capital town.
Similarly, using '''/n set capital (town name)''' appoints the specified town as the new capital town; its Mayor will be the new Leader of the nation.
In both cases (using either of the above commands), the Leader gives up their Leader rank, and their town is no longer the capital town of the nation. In addition, the nation spawn is removed when the capital town is changed.
The previous Leader will not have any nation ranks after giving up Leadership.

If you are considering passing Leadership to another player, only give it if you absolutely need to, and if you fully trust that person with the nation!

== Configuring Permissions ==
*'''build''' - Permission to place blocks, boats, minecarts, item frames, armor stands; place items inside item frames
*'''destroy''' - Permission to break blocks; use a hoe or axe on blocks; eat cake.
*'''switch''' - Permission to use doors, trapdoors, fence gates, buttons, pressure plates, levers, composters, bells, lodestones, respawn anchors; open chests, barrels, shulker boxes, hoppers, dispensers, enchanting tables, furnaces, blast furnaces, smokers, looms, stonecutters, cartography tables, anvils, brewing stands, smithing tables, grindstones, lecterns, trapped chests, jukeboxes, minecarts with chest, minecarts with furnace, minecarts with hopper; trigger tripwire, pistons, sticky pistons; change the state of redstone components; change the rotation of items in item frames.
*'''itemuse''' - Permission to use the following active items: splash and lingering potions, eggs, ender pearls, eyes of ender, end crystals, chorus fruit, snowballs, fishing rods, bottles o' enchanting, bonemeal, dye, flint and steel; obtain water by using a bucket or glass bottle, and obtain lava by using a bucket; empty any buckets; attach a lead to an animal or fence; enter minecarts or boats; place and destroy minecarts or boats; use shears on sheep; place gear on armor stands and take gear from armor stands; access SlimeFun machines; bucket a fish or axolotl; dye signs' text.

=== Permission Levels ===
*'''resident''' - All residents that are part of the town have a permission type in that unowned town plot.
*'''nation''' - All nation members of your own nation have a permission type in that unowned town plot.
*'''ally''' - All nation members of your allied nations have a permission type in that unowned town plot, but not nation members of your own nation.
*'''outsider''' - All players except the ones listed above have access to a permission type in that unowned town plot.

Plot Permission levels apply to resident plots:
*'''friend''' — All players in your friend list have a permission type in that resident plot.
*'''town''' — All residents that are part of your town have a permission type in that resident plot.
*'''ally''' — All nation members of your nation and your allied nations have a permission type in that resident plot.
*'''outsider''' — All players except the ones listed above have access to the permission type in that resident plot.

=== Permission Categories ===
There are 4 categories of permissions to configure. Each category applies to certain town plots.

'''General town permissions''' and '''individual town permissions''' apply to '''unowned town plots'''. '''Resident permissions''' and '''plot permissions''' apply to '''resident plots'''. Town permissions become resident/plot permissions for a claim when a resident buys it, and resident/plot permissions become town permissions for it again when the resident's ownership of it is removed.

*Configure general town permissions for all unowned town plots in the town by using /t set perm '''(town permission level) (permission type) (on/off)'''
**General town permissions also apply when claiming a chunk from Wilderness.

*Configure '''individual town permissions''' for the '''unowned''' town plot you are standing on by using '''/plot set perm (town permission level) (permission type) (on/off)'''
**Individual town permissions override general town permissions—this practically means that configuring general town permissions, after configuring individual town permissions for an unowned town plot, will not change that unowned town plot's permission settings.

*Configure '''resident permissions''' for all your '''owned resident plots''' by using '''/res set perm (plot permission level) (permission type) (on/off)'''
**Resident permissions also apply when buying a town plot.

*Configure plot permissions for the resident plot you are standing on by using '''/plot set perm (plot permission level) (permission type) (on/off)'''
**Plot permissions override resident permissions—this practically means that configuring resident permissions, after configuring plot permissions for any of your resident plots, will not change that resident plot's permission settings.

== Trusting ==
Trusting allows you to grant all permission types (build, destroy, switch, itemuse) for any claim in your town, to any player on the server.
*'''Town trusting''': To trust a player with '''all''' claims of your town, use '''/t trust add <playername>'''. To revoke a player's trust from the town, use '''/t trust remove <playername>'''.
Removing a player from being trusted does not necessarily mean that they stop having access to the town or the town plot. It means that the permissions you have configured for the town plot, will apply for them again.

== Town Board ==
You can set a custom message for your town, called the town board. Use '''/t set board (message)''' to change your town's town board.

*The town's residents can view the town board when they enter the server, and in the town information screen.
*Other players can view your town board in your town's town information screen (/t (name of your town)).
*Anyone can view the town board in the Dynamic map.
To remove a town board, type '''/t set board none'''. This command also removes the message showing up for the town's residents when they enter the server.

'''This page provides info on using the Towny plugin - but remember, you don't need to be in a town or claim your land! Grieifing is not allowed in the Town world, so feel free to build on the surface without claiming the land.

[[File:LionsParkNight.png|200px|thumb|right|Lions Park in the Town World]]
The Town world is a more relaxed approach at playing the server geared towards building communities and showing off your creativity. Towny offers no raiding, plots for your newcomers, and so much more! Start your Town adventures by visiting Lions Park at '''/warp town'''!

= Getting Started =
Mayors can start towns using the command '''/town new <town_name>''' for a set price. The townblock they're standing in will become the home block for the town (the exact spot/position will be the spawn point for the town).

Players can join established towns once they've been invited by the town's Mayor or Assistants.
= Town World Rules and Restrictions =
* Griefing, raiding, and obstructing other players in any way is not allowed.
* Valuable items cannot be stored in chests (this includes crate items, most gear, vouchers, etc.)
* Chem compounds can not be stored in chests (you can use your '''/chemtainer''' to store them cross-world)
* Automatic farms are not allowed (build them in the Factions world), and chunk hoppers are disabled.

= Towns =
Mayors and assistants can add players to their town with the command '''/town add <player_name>''' which will send an invite to the target player, giving them a prompt to either accept or deny the invitation. Mayors can also choose to have their town as public by using '''/town toggle open''', and players not already in a town can join open towns by using '''/town join <town_name>'''!

'''Note:''' Open towns can be viewed using the '''/town list by open''' command.

Every town has a homeblock that exists because towns must always have at least one chunk claimed. When creating a town, the chunk you are standing on becomes the first homeblock, and your exact position becomes the first town spawn. The town spawn is located within the homeblock chunk and it is indicated by particles on the ground.

In Towny, you can teleport back to your town spawn by typing '''/town spawn'''.
In Nations, you teleport to your town spawn after dying.
The location of the homeblock as well as the town spawn can be changed by the Mayor. To change the location of the homeblock, and where in your town people teleport to when using '''/town spawn''', you need to do '''/town set homeblock''' first and then '''/town set spawn'''. Your exact position will be the new town spawn.

The homeblock is an equivalent to the concept of the “town center”. The location of the town spawn and homeblock are best suited to a central place in the town, where residents have fast access to the rest of the town.

== Townblocks ==
Block protection is broken down into plots of land, called '''townblocks''', which by default are 16xYx16 (Y = the entire build limit). Townblocks are claimed by town mayors who can then sell/give individual plots to their town's residents.

By default, Mayors and Assistants can claim townblocks for their town using '''/town claim''', '''/town claim #''', '''/town claim rect|circle #|auto''', or '''/town claim auto'''.
{| class="wikitable" style="font-weight:bold;"
|- style="text-align:center; background-color:#329a9d;"
! Command
! Result
|-
| /town claim
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Claims one plot, where the player is standing.
|-
| /town claim #
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Claims a square with a radius equal to the given #, sometimes down-sizing the radius to make a perfect square, surrounding the command user.
|-
| /town claim rect #
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Claims a square with a radius equal to the given #, sometimes down-sizing the radius to make a perfect square, surrounding the command user.
|-
| /town claim rect auto
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Claims all possible townblocks in a square shape, centered around the command user.
|-
| /town claim circle #
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Claims a circle with a radius equal to the given #, sometimes down-sizing the radius to make a perfect square, surrounding the command user.
|-
| /town claim circle auto
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Claims all possible townblocks in a circle shape, centered around the command user.
|-
| /town claim auto
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Claims all possible townblocks in a square shape centered around the command user.
|}

Townblocks have an initial cost of $500 for the first chunk, and increase by 2.5% for each additional townblock (chunk) claimed. This means the second is $512.50, the third is $525, etc. This is capped at $100,000, though it's unlikely you'll ever come close to this cap. Outposts are the same cost, but with an initial $250,000 to create an outpost.

== Town Upkeep ==
Town upkeep is the amount of money the server automatically removes from your town bank at the start of each Towny Day (a real day, not a Minecraft day), so that the town can continue to exist. Not having enough money in the town bank to pay upkeep means that your town will fall into '''Ruins'''. Players can use '''/town deposit <money>''' to manually transfer money from their balance to the town bank at any time.

== Buying and Owning Plots ==
Every resident of your town—including the Mayor—can own town plots, where they can have their space to build on and use, as much space as the Mayor can or wants to give, that other residents cannot normally access. The town plots that a resident owns are called their resident plots. Residents have full access to their own resident plots, and all commands for them. Residents can own multiple and separated resident plots.

Residents have to buy a town plot first, to make it their own resident plot.

First, the Mayor must sell a town plot by using '''/plot forsale (price)''' while standing on a town plot.
Then, a resident (or the Mayor) can type '''/plot claim''' while standing in the town plot for sale, in order to buy it for the set price. The money is transferred from the resident's balance to the town bank.
To withdraw a plot from sale, you may type '''/plot notforsale'''.

A resident can use '''/plot unclaim''' while standing on one of their resident plots, in order to remove their ownership of it ("unclaim their resident plot").

Residents owning their own land is a necessary feature of any town, because the land residents use to build and protect their items on, is differentiated from the public town land. A well-organized town will generally allow each resident to have their resident plots in convenient locations around the town, with all of their resident plots close or next to each other.

== Outposts ==
Each group of claims that is separated from the main Town area is known as an '''Outpost'''. The first chunk claimed in a town outpost is called the town outpost spawnblock, and the location you are standing on in the claimed chunk is called the town outpost spawn.

To claim an area for an outpost, you can run '''/town claim outpost'''. To access the outpost, simply run '''/town outpost <outpost number/name>'''.

Outposts have a fee of $250,000 to create an outpost, and follow the same townblock cost progression as normal townblocks, seen above.

== Ruins ==
Ruins are created when a Town cannot afford to run anymore, all members leave, or someone deletes the town. While ruined, a town is subject to the following:
* Townblocks cannot be claimed by other towns.
** The town will be placed under the control of an NPC mayor.
*** The town can be griefed
**** The town's residents will not be able to execute most '''/town''' commands and no '''/plot''' commands.

== Hierarchy ==
Within the Town world are different levels of player hierarchy, which indicate where a player is at compared to the towns.

=== Nomads ===
Nomads are simply players who are not part of any town. They are landless players, searching for a place to call home.

=== Mayors ===
Mayors run towns and with the help of their assistants, manage a town and its residents.
Mayors can decide which ranks their residents fall into, in their town. Mayors also determine what sort of tax and tax rates, if any, the town will charge the residents.

=== Nation Leaders ===
Nation Leaders lead nations and are the mayor of the capital city. Leaders can decide which ranks their residents fall into in their nation.
Leaders also have the ability to set titles (prefixes) and surnames (postfixes) to the residents of the towns they have in their nation using:
'''/nation set title <player_name> <title>''' and
'''/nation set surname <player_name> <title>'''

== Town Shops ==
Town members can create shops within the town claims for other players to buy/sell items among the community. To create a shop:
* Place a Chest in the desired location
* Hold the item you want to buy/sell and type /iteminfo to get the item ID.
* Place a sign on or above the chest with the shop information
** Line One: Leave it BLANK!
** Line Two: Item Amount (However many you want to buy/sell of an item per transaction)
** Line Three: B#: S#: (Use B to sell items, use S to buy items. The # after B or S is the '''price'''.
* Line Four: Item Name/ID (if you can't figure out the item ID, or it is a custom item/crate item, you can put '''?''' in the slot and it will auto pull the info from the item in the chest)

= Lockable Chests =
The Town world has an additional grief prevention that allows players to lock their containers through '''/lwc'''. By default, when you place a container, it will be created as '''Private'''.
{| class="wikitable" style="font-weight:bold;"
|- style="text-align:center;"
! colspan="2" | Commonly Used LWC Commands
|-
| /lwc
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Using '''/lwc''' will list all of the lwc commands that are available to the player.
|-
| /cprivate

|-
| /cmodify
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Allows you to modify the players allowed to access the chest, among other things.

|-
| /lwc flag hopperin/hopperout off/on
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Allows containers to receive or deposit through hoppers.
|}

= Nations =
Being part of a nation is beneficial to towns for many reasons. Towns that have joined one can have extra protection from outsiders, are given more chunks to claim, and granted a variety of other gameplay benefits related to economy, influence, communication and community. A town that has joined a nation may also have to pay a daily town nation tax—in addition to upkeep—from its town bank. The town nation tax that your town pays every day is set by your nation's Leader, and it can be viewed by typing '''/towny prices''' (at the bottom).

Generally, your town can join a nation after being invited. The Mayor may accept a nation invitation by typing '''/accept (name of inviting nation)''' or deny it by typing '''/deny (name of inviting nation)'''.

On the other hand, if you do not wish to join a different nation, you can always make your own!
Being in a nation shapes a town's gameplay and strategy in multiple ways in both Towny and Nations.

Use '''/n (name of nation)''' to view a nation's nation information screen. Your own nation's nation information screen can be viewed by typing '''/n'''.

To create your nation, use '''/n new (name of nation)'''. You must be a Mayor in order to create a nation. This action removes money from the town bank.
The Mayor creating the nation is assigned its Leader (or King). A Leader has access to all commands for their nation. The town of the Mayor creating the nation, is declared the nation's capital town.
Invite other towns into your nation by using '''/n invite (name of town)'''. The town's Mayor or Comayors can use '''/accept (your nation's name)''' to join. To cancel an invite to a town, use '''/n invite -(name of town)'''.
You can remove a town from your nation by using '''/n kick (name of town)'''.
Change the border color of all towns in your nation, as seen in the Dynamic map, by typing '''/n set mapcolor (color)'''. (Make sure the color is unique, for better visibility!)

Any nation member can use '''/n deposit (amount of money)''' to transfer money from their balance to the nation bank. The Leader, Coleaders or Treasurers can withdraw money from the nation bank by using '''/n withdraw (amount of money)'''. The Leader, Coleaders, Chancellors and Treasurers can also view the bank transaction history of their nation bank for the current Towny day by typing '''/n bankhistory'''.

On Nations, players can also use the xp bank to deposit xp for storage. Any player can transfer to the xp bank using '''/n xpbank deposit (amount of xp/all)'''. The Leader, Coleaders or Xp Bankers can withdraw xp using '''/n xpbank withdraw (amount of xp/all)'''.

== Nation Upkeep ==
Nation upkeep is the amount of money that the server automatically removes from your nation bank at the start of each Towny day, so that the nation can continue to exist. More towns in the nation means higher nation upkeep to pay each day. Nation taxes are collected before nation upkeep.

== Nation Merging ==
Nation merging is the action of transferring the towns and nation bank of one nation to another.

The Leader or Coleader can request a nation to merge into their nation by using '''/n merge (foreign nation)'''. The other nation's Leader must be online and type '''/confirm''' if they wish the other nation to merge into theirs. Otherwise the Leader may type '''/cancel''' to deny the request.

The nation that receives and accepts the merge request will be dissolved—its Leader and other ranked nation members will lose all their nation ranks, its name will be removed from the server, and its towns and bank will be transferred to the other nation, if possible.

A Leader or Coleader of both nations involved must be online while the request and merger take place.

== Transferring Leadership ==
A Leader can pass the Leader rank (title and powers) to another nation member, by using '''/n set king (name of new king)'''. The player must be a Mayor of a town within the nation. The new Leader's town will be appointed the nation's capital town.
Similarly, using '''/n set capital (town name)''' appoints the specified town as the new capital town; its Mayor will be the new Leader of the nation.
In both cases (using either of the above commands), the Leader gives up their Leader rank, and their town is no longer the capital town of the nation. In addition, the nation spawn is removed when the capital town is changed.
The previous Leader will not have any nation ranks after giving up Leadership.

If you are considering passing Leadership to another player, only give it if you absolutely need to, and if you fully trust that person with the nation!

The Town world is a more relaxed approach at playing the server geared towards building communities and showing off your creativity. Towny offers no raiding, plots for your newcomers, and so much more! Start your Town adventures by visiting Lions Park at '''/warp town'''!

= Getting Started =
Mayors can start towns using the command '''/town new <town_name>''' for a set price. The townblock they're standing in will become the home block for the town (the exact spot/position will be the spawn point for the town).

Players can join established towns once they've been invited by the town's Mayor or Assistants.
= Town World Rules and Restrictions =
* Griefing, raiding, and obstructing other players in any way is not allowed.
* Valuable items cannot be stored in chests (this includes crate items, most gear, vouchers, etc.)
* Chem compounds can not be stored in chests (you can use your '''/chemtainer''' to store them cross-world)
* Automatic farms are not allowed (build them in the Factions world), and chunk hoppers are disabled.

= Towns =
Mayors and assistants can add players to their town with the command '''/town add <player_name>''' which will send an invite to the target player, giving them a prompt to either accept or deny the invitation. Mayors can also choose to have their town as public by using '''/town toggle open''', and players not already in a town can join open towns by using '''/town join <town_name>'''!

'''Note:''' Open towns can be viewed using the '''/town list by open''' command.

Every town has a homeblock that exists because towns must always have at least one chunk claimed. When creating a town, the chunk you are standing on becomes the first homeblock, and your exact position becomes the first town spawn. The town spawn is located within the homeblock chunk and it is indicated by particles on the ground.

In Towny, you can teleport back to your town spawn by typing '''/town spawn'''.
In Nations, you teleport to your town spawn after dying.
The location of the homeblock as well as the town spawn can be changed by the Mayor. To change the location of the homeblock, and where in your town people teleport to when using '''/town spawn''', you need to do '''/town set homeblock''' first and then '''/town set spawn'''. Your exact position will be the new town spawn.

The homeblock is an equivalent to the concept of the “town center”. The location of the town spawn and homeblock are best suited to a central place in the town, where residents have fast access to the rest of the town.

== Townblocks ==
Block protection is broken down into plots of land, called '''townblocks''', which by default are 16xYx16 (Y = the entire build limit). Townblocks are claimed by town mayors who can then sell/give individual plots to their town's residents.

By default, Mayors and Assistants can claim townblocks for their town using '''/town claim''', '''/town claim #''', '''/town claim rect|circle #|auto''', or '''/town claim auto'''.

|- style="text-align:center; background-color:#329a9d;"
! Command

|-
| /town claim
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Claims one plot, where the player is standing.
|-
| /town claim #
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Claims a square with a radius equal to the given #, sometimes down-sizing the radius to make a perfect square, surrounding the command user.
|-
| /town claim rect #
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Claims a square with a radius equal to the given #, sometimes down-sizing the radius to make a perfect square, surrounding the command user.
|-
| /town claim rect auto
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Claims all possible townblocks in a square shape, centered around the command user.
|-
| /town claim circle #
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Claims a circle with a radius equal to the given #, sometimes down-sizing the radius to make a perfect square, surrounding the command user.
|-
| /town claim circle auto
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Claims all possible townblocks in a circle shape, centered around the command user.
|-
| /town claim auto
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Claims all possible townblocks in a square shape centered around the command user.
|}

Townblocks have an initial cost of $500 for the first chunk, and increase by 2.5% for each additional townblock (chunk) claimed. This means the second is $512.50, the third is $525, etc. This is capped at $100,000, though it's unlikely you'll ever come close to this cap. Outposts are the same cost, but with an initial $250,000 to create an outpost.

== Town Upkeep ==
Town upkeep is the amount of money the server automatically removes from your town bank at the start of each Towny Day (a real day, not a Minecraft day), so that the town can continue to exist. Not having enough money in the town bank to pay upkeep means that your town will fall into '''Ruins'''. Players can use '''/town deposit <money>''' to manually transfer money from their balance to the town bank at any time.

== Buying and Owning Plots ==
Every resident of your town—including the Mayor—can own town plots, where they can have their space to build on and use, as much space as the Mayor can or wants to give, that other residents cannot normally access. The town plots that a resident owns are called their resident plots. Residents have full access to their own resident plots, and all commands for them. Residents can own multiple and separated resident plots.

Residents have to buy a town plot first, to make it their own resident plot.

First, the Mayor must sell a town plot by using '''/plot forsale (price)''' while standing on a town plot.
Then, a resident (or the Mayor) can type '''/plot claim''' while standing in the town plot for sale, in order to buy it for the set price. The money is transferred from the resident's balance to the town bank.
To withdraw a plot from sale, you may type '''/plot notforsale'''.

A resident can use '''/plot unclaim''' while standing on one of their resident plots, in order to remove their ownership of it ("unclaim their resident plot").

Residents owning their own land is a necessary feature of any town, because the land residents use to build and protect their items on, is differentiated from the public town land. A well-organized town will generally allow each resident to have their resident plots in convenient locations around the town, with all of their resident plots close or next to each other.

== Outposts ==
Each group of claims that is separated from the main Town area is known as an '''Outpost'''. The first chunk claimed in a town outpost is called the town outpost spawnblock, and the location you are standing on in the claimed chunk is called the town outpost spawn.

To claim an area for an outpost, you can run '''/town claim outpost'''. To access the outpost, simply run '''/town outpost <outpost number/name>'''.

Outposts have a fee of $250,000 to create an outpost, and follow the same townblock cost progression as normal townblocks, seen above.

== Ruins ==
Ruins are created when a Town cannot afford to run anymore, all members leave, or someone deletes the town. While ruined, a town is subject to the following:
* Townblocks cannot be claimed by other towns.
** The town will be placed under the control of an NPC mayor.
*** The town can be griefed
**** The town's residents will not be able to execute most '''/town''' commands and no '''/plot''' commands.

== Hierarchy ==
Within the Town world are different levels of player hierarchy, which indicate where a player is at compared to the towns.

=== Nomads ===
Nomads are simply players who are not part of any town. They are landless players, searching for a place to call home.

=== Mayors ===
Mayors run towns and with the help of their assistants, manage a town and its residents.
Mayors can decide which ranks their residents fall into, in their town. Mayors also determine what sort of tax and tax rates, if any, the town will charge the residents.

=== Nation Leaders ===
Nation Leaders lead nations and are the mayor of the capital city. Leaders can decide which ranks their residents fall into in their nation.
Leaders also have the ability to set titles (prefixes) and surnames (postfixes) to the residents of the towns they have in their nation using:
'''/nation set title <player_name> <title>''' and
'''/nation set surname <player_name> <title>'''

= Lockable Chests =
The Town world has an additional grief prevention that allows players to lock their containers through '''/lwc'''. By default, when you place a container, it will be created as '''Private'''.
{| class="wikitable" style="font-weight:bold;"
|- style="text-align:center;"
! colspan="2" | Commonly Used LWC Commands
|-
| /lwc
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Using '''/lwc''' will list all of the lwc commands that are available to the player.
|-
| /cprivate
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Allows you to create a protection on the container.
|-
| /cmodify
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Allows you to modify the players allowed to access the chest, among other things.
|-

| style="font-weight:normal;" | Removes a specified player from the container.
|-
| /cpassword <password>
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Adds a password to a specified container.
|-
| /cinfo
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Allows you to view information on a protected container.
|-
| /cprivate town:TownName
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Allows you to have a blanket protection for your Town members.
|-
| /cremove
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Removes protections from a container.
|-
| /lwc flag hopperin/hopperout off/on
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Allows containers to receive or deposit through hoppers.
|}

= Nations =
Being part of a nation is beneficial to towns for many reasons. Towns that have joined one can have extra protection from outsiders, are given more chunks to claim, and granted a variety of other gameplay benefits related to economy, influence, communication and community. A town that has joined a nation may also have to pay a daily town nation tax—in addition to upkeep—from its town bank. The town nation tax that your town pays every day is set by your nation's Leader, and it can be viewed by typing '''/towny prices''' (at the bottom).

Generally, your town can join a nation after being invited. The Mayor may accept a nation invitation by typing '''/accept (name of inviting nation)''' or deny it by typing '''/deny (name of inviting nation)'''.

On the other hand, if you do not wish to join a different nation, you can always make your own!
Being in a nation shapes a town's gameplay and strategy in multiple ways in both Towny and Nations.

Use '''/n (name of nation)''' to view a nation's nation information screen. Your own nation's nation information screen can be viewed by typing '''/n'''.

To create your nation, use '''/n new (name of nation)'''. You must be a Mayor in order to create a nation. This action removes money from the town bank.
The Mayor creating the nation is assigned its Leader (or King). A Leader has access to all commands for their nation. The town of the Mayor creating the nation, is declared the nation's capital town.
Invite other towns into your nation by using '''/n invite (name of town)'''. The town's Mayor or Comayors can use '''/accept (your nation's name)''' to join. To cancel an invite to a town, use '''/n invite -(name of town)'''.
You can remove a town from your nation by using '''/n kick (name of town)'''.
Change the border color of all towns in your nation, as seen in the Dynamic map, by typing '''/n set mapcolor (color)'''. (Make sure the color is unique, for better visibility!)

Any nation member can use '''/n deposit (amount of money)''' to transfer money from their balance to the nation bank. The Leader, Coleaders or Treasurers can withdraw money from the nation bank by using '''/n withdraw (amount of money)'''. The Leader, Coleaders, Chancellors and Treasurers can also view the bank transaction history of their nation bank for the current Towny day by typing '''/n bankhistory'''.

On Nations, players can also use the xp bank to deposit xp for storage. Any player can transfer to the xp bank using '''/n xpbank deposit (amount of xp/all)'''. The Leader, Coleaders or Xp Bankers can withdraw xp using '''/n xpbank withdraw (amount of xp/all)'''.

== Nation Upkeep ==
Nation upkeep is the amount of money that the server automatically removes from your nation bank at the start of each Towny day, so that the nation can continue to exist. More towns in the nation means higher nation upkeep to pay each day. Nation taxes are collected before nation upkeep.

== Nation Merging ==
Nation merging is the action of transferring the towns and nation bank of one nation to another.

The Leader or Coleader can request a nation to merge into their nation by using '''/n merge (foreign nation)'''. The other nation's Leader must be online and type '''/confirm''' if they wish the other nation to merge into theirs. Otherwise the Leader may type '''/cancel''' to deny the request.

The nation that receives and accepts the merge request will be dissolved—its Leader and other ranked nation members will lose all their nation ranks, its name will be removed from the server, and its towns and bank will be transferred to the other nation, if possible.

A Leader or Coleader of both nations involved must be online while the request and merger take place.

== Transferring Leadership ==
A Leader can pass the Leader rank (title and powers) to another nation member, by using '''/n set king (name of new king)'''. The player must be a Mayor of a town within the nation. The new Leader's town will be appointed the nation's capital town.
Similarly, using '''/n set capital (town name)''' appoints the specified town as the new capital town; its Mayor will be the new Leader of the nation.
In both cases (using either of the above commands), the Leader gives up their Leader rank, and their town is no longer the capital town of the nation. In addition, the nation spawn is removed when the capital town is changed.
The previous Leader will not have any nation ranks after giving up Leadership.

If you are considering passing Leadership to another player, only give it if you absolutely need to, and if you fully trust that person with the nation!

Townblocks have an initial cost of $500 for the first chunk, and increase by 2.5% for each additional townblock (chunk) claimed. This means the second is $512.50, the third is $525, etc. This is capped at $100,000, though it's unlikely you'll ever come close to this cap. Outposts are the same cost, but with an initial $250,000 to create an outpost.

== Town Upkeep ==
Town upkeep is the amount of money the server automatically removes from your town bank at the start of each Towny Day (a real day, not a Minecraft day), so that the town can continue to exist. Not having enough money in the town bank to pay upkeep means that your town will fall into '''Ruins'''. Players can use '''/town deposit <money>''' to manually transfer money from their balance to the town bank at any time.

== Buying and Owning Plots ==
Every resident of your town—including the Mayor—can own town plots, where they can have their space to build on and use, as much space as the Mayor can or wants to give, that other residents cannot normally access. The town plots that a resident owns are called their resident plots. Residents have full access to their own resident plots, and all commands for them. Residents can own multiple and separated resident plots.

Residents have to buy a town plot first, to make it their own resident plot.

First, the Mayor must sell a town plot by using '''/plot forsale (price)''' while standing on a town plot.
Then, a resident (or the Mayor) can type '''/plot claim''' while standing in the town plot for sale, in order to buy it for the set price. The money is transferred from the resident's balance to the town bank.
To withdraw a plot from sale, you may type '''/plot notforsale'''.

A resident can use '''/plot unclaim''' while standing on one of their resident plots, in order to remove their ownership of it ("unclaim their resident plot").

Residents owning their own land is a necessary feature of any town, because the land residents use to build and protect their items on, is differentiated from the public town land. A well-organized town will generally allow each resident to have their resident plots in convenient locations around the town, with all of their resident plots close or next to each other.

== Outposts ==
Each group of claims that is separated from the main Town area is known as an '''Outpost'''. The first chunk claimed in a town outpost is called the town outpost spawnblock, and the location you are standing on in the claimed chunk is called the town outpost spawn.

To claim an area for an outpost, you can run '''/town claim outpost'''. To access the outpost, simply run '''/town outpost <outpost number/name>'''.

Outposts have a fee of $250,000 to create an outpost, and follow the same townblock cost progression as normal townblocks, seen above.

== Ruins ==
Ruins are created when a Town cannot afford to run anymore, all members leave, or someone deletes the town. While ruined, a town is subject to the following:
* Townblocks cannot be claimed by other towns.
** The town will be placed under the control of an NPC mayor.
*** The town can be griefed
**** The town's residents will not be able to execute most '''/town''' commands and no '''/plot''' commands.

== Hierarchy ==
Within the Town world are different levels of player hierarchy, which indicate where a player is at compared to the towns.

=== Nomads ===
Nomads are simply players who are not part of any town. They are landless players, searching for a place to call home.

=== Mayors ===
Mayors run towns and with the help of their assistants, manage a town and its residents.
Mayors can decide which ranks their residents fall into, in their town. Mayors also determine what sort of tax and tax rates, if any, the town will charge the residents.

=== Nation Leaders ===
Nation Leaders lead nations and are the mayor of the capital city. Leaders can decide which ranks their residents fall into in their nation.
Leaders also have the ability to set titles (prefixes) and surnames (postfixes) to the residents of the towns they have in their nation using:
'''/nation set title <player_name> <title>''' and
'''/nation set surname <player_name> <title>'''

= Lockable Chests =
The Town world has an additional grief prevention that allows players to lock their containers through '''/lwc'''. By default, when you place a container, it will be created as '''Private'''.
{| class="wikitable" style="font-weight:bold;"
|- style="text-align:center;"

= Nations =
Being part of a nation is beneficial to towns for many reasons. Towns that have joined one can have extra protection from outsiders, are given more chunks to claim, and granted a variety of other gameplay benefits related to economy, influence, communication and community. A town that has joined a nation may also have to pay a daily town nation tax—in addition to upkeep—from its town bank. The town nation tax that your town pays every day is set by your nation's Leader, and it can be viewed by typing '''/towny prices''' (at the bottom).

Generally, your town can join a nation after being invited. The Mayor may accept a nation invitation by typing '''/accept (name of inviting nation)''' or deny it by typing '''/deny (name of inviting nation)'''.

On the other hand, if you do not wish to join a different nation, you can always make your own!
Being in a nation shapes a town's gameplay and strategy in multiple ways in both Towny and Nations.

Use '''/n (name of nation)''' to view a nation's nation information screen. Your own nation's nation information screen can be viewed by typing '''/n'''.

To create your nation, use '''/n new (name of nation)'''. You must be a Mayor in order to create a nation. This action removes money from the town bank.
The Mayor creating the nation is assigned its Leader (or King). A Leader has access to all commands for their nation. The town of the Mayor creating the nation, is declared the nation's capital town.
Invite other towns into your nation by using '''/n invite (name of town)'''. The town's Mayor or Comayors can use '''/accept (your nation's name)''' to join. To cancel an invite to a town, use '''/n invite -(name of town)'''.
You can remove a town from your nation by using '''/n kick (name of town)'''.
Change the border color of all towns in your nation, as seen in the Dynamic map, by typing '''/n set mapcolor (color)'''. (Make sure the color is unique, for better visibility!)

Any nation member can use '''/n deposit (amount of money)''' to transfer money from their balance to the nation bank. The Leader, Coleaders or Treasurers can withdraw money from the nation bank by using '''/n withdraw (amount of money)'''. The Leader, Coleaders, Chancellors and Treasurers can also view the bank transaction history of their nation bank for the current Towny day by typing '''/n bankhistory'''.

On Nations, players can also use the xp bank to deposit xp for storage. Any player can transfer to the xp bank using '''/n xpbank deposit (amount of xp/all)'''. The Leader, Coleaders or Xp Bankers can withdraw xp using '''/n xpbank withdraw (amount of xp/all)'''.

== Nation Upkeep ==
Nation upkeep is the amount of money that the server automatically removes from your nation bank at the start of each Towny day, so that the nation can continue to exist. More towns in the nation means higher nation upkeep to pay each day. Nation taxes are collected before nation upkeep.

== Nation Merging ==
Nation merging is the action of transferring the towns and nation bank of one nation to another.

The Leader or Coleader can request a nation to merge into their nation by using '''/n merge (foreign nation)'''. The other nation's Leader must be online and type '''/confirm''' if they wish the other nation to merge into theirs. Otherwise the Leader may type '''/cancel''' to deny the request.

The nation that receives and accepts the merge request will be dissolved—its Leader and other ranked nation members will lose all their nation ranks, its name will be removed from the server, and its towns and bank will be transferred to the other nation, if possible.

A Leader or Coleader of both nations involved must be online while the request and merger take place.

== Transferring Leadership ==
A Leader can pass the Leader rank (title and powers) to another nation member, by using '''/n set king (name of new king)'''. The player must be a Mayor of a town within the nation. The new Leader's town will be appointed the nation's capital town.
Similarly, using '''/n set capital (town name)''' appoints the specified town as the new capital town; its Mayor will be the new Leader of the nation.
In both cases (using either of the above commands), the Leader gives up their Leader rank, and their town is no longer the capital town of the nation. In addition, the nation spawn is removed when the capital town is changed.
The previous Leader will not have any nation ranks after giving up Leadership.

If you are considering passing Leadership to another player, only give it if you absolutely need to, and if you fully trust that person with the nation!

CraydorGM: /* Outposts */

'''This page provides info on using the Towny plugin - but remember, you don't need to be in a town or claim your land! Grieifing is not allowed in the Town world, so feel free to build on the surface without claiming the land.

[[File:LionsParkNight.png|200px|thumb|right|Lions Park in the Town World]]
The Town world is a more relaxed approach at playing the server geared towards building communities and showing off your creativity. Towny offers no raiding, plots for your newcomers, and so much more! Start your Town adventures by visiting Lions Park at '''/warp town'''!

= Getting Started =
Mayors can start towns using the command '''/town new <town_name>''' for a set price. The townblock they're standing in will become the home block for the town (the exact spot/position will be the spawn point for the town).

Players can join established towns once they've been invited by the town's Mayor or Assistants.
= Town World Rules and Restrictions =
* Griefing, raiding, and obstructing other players in any way is not allowed.
* Valuable items cannot be stored in chests (this includes crate items, most gear, vouchers, etc.)
* Chem compounds can not be stored in chests (you can use your '''/chemtainer''' to store them cross-world)
* Automatic farms are not allowed (build them in the Factions world), and chunk hoppers are disabled.

= Towns =
Mayors and assistants can add players to their town with the command '''/town add <player_name>''' which will send an invite to the target player, giving them a prompt to either accept or deny the invitation. Mayors can also choose to have their town as public by using '''/town toggle open''', and players not already in a town can join open towns by using '''/town join <town_name>'''!

'''Note:''' Open towns can be viewed using the '''/town list by open''' command.

Every town has a homeblock that exists because towns must always have at least one chunk claimed. When creating a town, the chunk you are standing on becomes the first homeblock, and your exact position becomes the first town spawn. The town spawn is located within the homeblock chunk and it is indicated by particles on the ground.

In Towny, you can teleport back to your town spawn by typing '''/town spawn'''.
In Nations, you teleport to your town spawn after dying.
The location of the homeblock as well as the town spawn can be changed by the Mayor. To change the location of the homeblock, and where in your town people teleport to when using '''/town spawn''', you need to do '''/town set homeblock''' first and then '''/town set spawn'''. Your exact position will be the new town spawn.

The homeblock is an equivalent to the concept of the “town center”. The location of the town spawn and homeblock are best suited to a central place in the town, where residents have fast access to the rest of the town.

== Townblocks ==
Block protection is broken down into plots of land, called '''townblocks''', which by default are 16xYx16 (Y = the entire build limit). Townblocks are claimed by town mayors who can then sell/give individual plots to their town's residents.

By default, Mayors and Assistants can claim townblocks for their town using '''/town claim''', '''/town claim #''', '''/town claim rect|circle #|auto''', or '''/town claim auto'''.

== Town Upkeep ==
Town upkeep is the amount of money the server automatically removes from your town bank at the start of each Towny Day (a real day, not a Minecraft day), so that the town can continue to exist. Not having enough money in the town bank to pay upkeep means that your town will fall into '''Ruins'''. Players can use '''/town deposit <money>''' to manually transfer money from their balance to the town bank at any time.

== Buying and Owning Plots ==
Every resident of your town—including the Mayor—can own town plots, where they can have their space to build on and use, as much space as the Mayor can or wants to give, that other residents cannot normally access. The town plots that a resident owns are called their resident plots. Residents have full access to their own resident plots, and all commands for them. Residents can own multiple and separated resident plots.

Residents have to buy a town plot first, to make it their own resident plot.

First, the Mayor must sell a town plot by using '''/plot forsale (price)''' while standing on a town plot.
Then, a resident (or the Mayor) can type '''/plot claim''' while standing in the town plot for sale, in order to buy it for the set price. The money is transferred from the resident's balance to the town bank.
To withdraw a plot from sale, you may type '''/plot notforsale'''.

A resident can use '''/plot unclaim''' while standing on one of their resident plots, in order to remove their ownership of it ("unclaim their resident plot").

Residents owning their own land is a necessary feature of any town, because the land residents use to build and protect their items on, is differentiated from the public town land. A well-organized town will generally allow each resident to have their resident plots in convenient locations around the town, with all of their resident plots close or next to each other.

== Outposts ==
Each group of claims that is separated from the main Town area is known as an '''Outpost'''. The first chunk claimed in a town outpost is called the town outpost spawnblock, and the location you are standing on in the claimed chunk is called the town outpost spawn.

To claim an area for an outpost, you can run '''/town claim outpost'''. To access the outpost, simply run '''/town outpost <outpost number/name>'''.

== Ruins ==
Ruins are created when a Town cannot afford to run anymore, all members leave, or someone deletes the town. While ruined, a town is subject to the following:
* Townblocks cannot be claimed by other towns.
** The town will be placed under the control of an NPC mayor.
*** The town can be griefed
**** The town's residents will not be able to execute most '''/town''' commands and no '''/plot''' commands.

== Hierarchy ==
Within the Town world are different levels of player hierarchy, which indicate where a player is at compared to the towns.

=== Nomads ===
Nomads are simply players who are not part of any town. They are landless players, searching for a place to call home.

=== Mayors ===
Mayors run towns and with the help of their assistants, manage a town and its residents.
Mayors can decide which ranks their residents fall into, in their town. Mayors also determine what sort of tax and tax rates, if any, the town will charge the residents.

=== Nation Leaders ===
Nation Leaders lead nations and are the mayor of the capital city. Leaders can decide which ranks their residents fall into in their nation.
Leaders also have the ability to set titles (prefixes) and surnames (postfixes) to the residents of the towns they have in their nation using:
'''/nation set title <player_name> <title>''' and
'''/nation set surname <player_name> <title>'''

= Lockable Chests =
The Town world has an additional grief prevention that allows players to lock their containers through '''/lwc'''. By default, when you place a container, it will be created as '''Private'''.
{| class="wikitable" style="font-weight:bold;"
|- style="text-align:center;"
! colspan="2" | Commonly Used LWC Commands
|-
| /lwc
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Using '''/lwc''' will list all of the lwc commands that are available to the player.
|-
| /cprivate
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Allows you to create a protection on the container.
|-
| /cmodify
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Allows you to modify the players allowed to access the chest, among other things.
|-
| /cremove -Player
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Removes a specified player from the container.
|-
| /cpassword <password>
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Adds a password to a specified container.
|-
| /cinfo
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Allows you to view information on a protected container.
|-
| /cprivate town:TownName
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Allows you to have a blanket protection for your Town members.
|-
| /cremove
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Removes protections from a container.
|}

= Nations =
Being part of a nation is beneficial to towns for many reasons. Towns that have joined one can have extra protection from outsiders, are given more chunks to claim, and granted a variety of other gameplay benefits related to economy, influence, communication and community. A town that has joined a nation may also have to pay a daily town nation tax—in addition to upkeep—from its town bank. The town nation tax that your town pays every day is set by your nation's Leader, and it can be viewed by typing '''/towny prices''' (at the bottom).

Generally, your town can join a nation after being invited. The Mayor may accept a nation invitation by typing '''/accept (name of inviting nation)''' or deny it by typing '''/deny (name of inviting nation)'''.

On the other hand, if you do not wish to join a different nation, you can always make your own!
Being in a nation shapes a town's gameplay and strategy in multiple ways in both Towny and Nations.

Use '''/n (name of nation)''' to view a nation's nation information screen. Your own nation's nation information screen can be viewed by typing '''/n'''.

To create your nation, use '''/n new (name of nation)'''. You must be a Mayor in order to create a nation. This action removes money from the town bank.
The Mayor creating the nation is assigned its Leader (or King). A Leader has access to all commands for their nation. The town of the Mayor creating the nation, is declared the nation's capital town.
Invite other towns into your nation by using '''/n invite (name of town)'''. The town's Mayor or Comayors can use '''/accept (your nation's name)''' to join. To cancel an invite to a town, use '''/n invite -(name of town)'''.
You can remove a town from your nation by using '''/n kick (name of town)'''.
Change the border color of all towns in your nation, as seen in the Dynamic map, by typing '''/n set mapcolor (color)'''. (Make sure the color is unique, for better visibility!)

Any nation member can use '''/n deposit (amount of money)''' to transfer money from their balance to the nation bank. The Leader, Coleaders or Treasurers can withdraw money from the nation bank by using '''/n withdraw (amount of money)'''. The Leader, Coleaders, Chancellors and Treasurers can also view the bank transaction history of their nation bank for the current Towny day by typing '''/n bankhistory'''.

On Nations, players can also use the xp bank to deposit xp for storage. Any player can transfer to the xp bank using '''/n xpbank deposit (amount of xp/all)'''. The Leader, Coleaders or Xp Bankers can withdraw xp using '''/n xpbank withdraw (amount of xp/all)'''.

== Nation Upkeep ==
Nation upkeep is the amount of money that the server automatically removes from your nation bank at the start of each Towny day, so that the nation can continue to exist. More towns in the nation means higher nation upkeep to pay each day. Nation taxes are collected before nation upkeep.

== Nation Merging ==
Nation merging is the action of transferring the towns and nation bank of one nation to another.

The Leader or Coleader can request a nation to merge into their nation by using '''/n merge (foreign nation)'''. The other nation's Leader must be online and type '''/confirm''' if they wish the other nation to merge into theirs. Otherwise the Leader may type '''/cancel''' to deny the request.

The nation that receives and accepts the merge request will be dissolved—its Leader and other ranked nation members will lose all their nation ranks, its name will be removed from the server, and its towns and bank will be transferred to the other nation, if possible.

A Leader or Coleader of both nations involved must be online while the request and merger take place.

== Transferring Leadership ==
A Leader can pass the Leader rank (title and powers) to another nation member, by using '''/n set king (name of new king)'''. The player must be a Mayor of a town within the nation. The new Leader's town will be appointed the nation's capital town.
Similarly, using '''/n set capital (town name)''' appoints the specified town as the new capital town; its Mayor will be the new Leader of the nation.
In both cases (using either of the above commands), the Leader gives up their Leader rank, and their town is no longer the capital town of the nation. In addition, the nation spawn is removed when the capital town is changed.
The previous Leader will not have any nation ranks after giving up Leadership.

If you are considering passing Leadership to another player, only give it if you absolutely need to, and if you fully trust that person with the nation!

CraydorGM: /* Worlds */

<div style="float:right">__TOC__</div>

MCLabs is the longest-running Minecraft farming server. The server was formerly known as MCLabs, but went through a required transition from the drugs theme to the chems theme. The entire server economy is based on selling chems. Chems can be acquired by either growing them (most Minecraft plants and crops that can be grown can be sold as chems), or by becoming a police officer and selling confiscated chems. This article will aim to give a quick overview of the main features of the server, and provide enough information to help you get started.

'''Reading this entire article isn't necessary to get started - you can start playing, and refer back here when needed. If you don't want to read the entire thing before playing, here's the basics:'''
* Grow Minecraft crops, or "chems", and sell them to make money. [[Tips and Tricks#Farming| Farming tips and tricks here.]]
** You can sell chems by going to '''/spawn''' and following the redstone trail.
** Watch out for police in blue leather armour, who can confiscate your chems if they catch you.
** Once your reach the Intern rank, you can sell chems for others with '''/runner'''. [[running | More info here]].
* Craft chem compounds, which sell for more than base chems. Check your crafting book or '''/recipes''' for compound recipes, and see '''/chems''' for prices.
* Spend your money to rank-up and earn rewards with '''/rankup'''.
* Once you reach the Trainee rank, you can become a police officer and catch players selling chems with '''/police enroll'''.
* Chems grow faster in the Faction world, which you can get to with ''/factions'''.
* Raiding is allowed. It's recommended you keep your base deep underground and unclaimed to avoid other players finding it, or by using a Town.
* Travel to different worlds with the '''/nav''' command.
* Along with selling chems, you can make money by voting ('''/vote'''), jobs ('''/jobs'''), fishing, parkour ('''/parkour'''), and more.
* Create a Town in the Town world for a more casual gamemode with '''/t'''.
* Create a Faction to protect your land in the Faction worlds with '''/f'''. Earn faction power by ranking up.
* Buy items from other players at '''/warp shops''', or from anywhere with '''/shop'''.
* Get free access to the Communal Farm for 48 hours to farm sugarcane at '''/warp cfarm'''.
* Read the [[Tips and Tricks]] article for more useful information.

Make sure to be familiar with the [[rules | server rules]]!

== MCLabs Basics ==
=== Essential Commands ===
Commands are chat messages that have an effect other than sending a message. To run a command, write the command in your in-game chat. Commands will always begin with a slash (/). MCLabs has a lot of commands. We don't expect you to learn them all right now, but there are a few that you need to know:
* '''/sethome <name>''' saves your current location as a home with the given name, allowing you to teleport back.
* '''/delhome <name>''' deletes your home with the given name.
* '''/home <name>''' to teleport back to your saved home with the given name.
<blockquote>''Tip: Don't forget to set a home at your first farm! If you go back to Spawn, you'll need to have a home set to get back to it!''</blockquote>
* '''/tpa <player>''' to request to teleport to another player.
<blockquote>''Tip: Don't trust teleport requests from players you don't know - you don't have to accept a teleport request.''</blockquote>
* '''/spawn''' to return to the Spawn world.
* '''/towns''' or '''/factions''' to navigate to specific worlds.
* Access the Nether and End with '''/warp nether''' and '''/warp end'''.

=== Chems ===
==== Growing Chems ====
"Chems" are just regular Minecraft crops that you can grow and harvest just like in vanilla Minecraft. This includes wheat, carrots, pumpkins, mushrooms, chorus fruit, etc.

To start producing chems, just farm and harvest crops. You can get a set of the seeds for each chem with '''/kit seeds'''.

Where you build your farm matters, as crop growth speeds are different in each world, with the Faction world providing increased growing speeds.

<blockquote>''Tip: We recommend you start off in the Towny world growing either wheat, carrots, potatoes, or beetroot, as these sell for a good price and don't require an expensive auto-farm setup.''</blockquote>

==== Selling Chems ====
Selling chems is the main method of making money on MCLabs. To sell chems, go to '''/spawn''' and follow the redstone trail to the chem dealer building. Inside, there is an NPC that you can right-click to open the chem selling menu.

But watch out - police patrol spawn and will try to frisk you and take your chems. Police wear distinctive dark blue armour, and you should avoid them if you have chems in your inventory. If a cop right-clicks you and you have more than 15 chems in your inventory, all of your chems will be taken and you will go to jail for up to a few minutes.

<blockquote>''Tip: As a new player, you have of protection from police. Use this time to scout selling routes before you start selling lots of chems!''</blockquote>

==== Running ====
If you don't have any chems to sell, but still want to make some money by selling chems, you can run chems for other players. Once your reach the Intern rank, you can go on Runner Duty with '''/runner duty''', and take jobs for a cut of the total sell price. You should be familiar with the selling routes before running, since you have a runner reputation, and failing jobs (getting arrested or losing the chems) will lower your reputation.

See [[running]] for more detail on running.

==== Raw Chems ====
"Raw chems" are any regular crop in vanilla minecraft that can be sold as a chem. This includes items like wheat, sugar, netherwart, etc. Selling these items is a good way to get your chem empire started.

<blockquote>''Tip: Chem compounds are made with base chems, so even if you have no chems to craft yet, it can be beneficial to look at the combinations ('''/recipes''') and make your first farm based on which combination(s) you plan to craft!''</blockquote>

Each base chem has a chem name. For example, wheat is "Wheatium", pumpkins are "Pumpkonium". It's a good idea to familiarize yourself with the chem names. You can easily view all of the chem names at any time in-game with '''/chemnames'''.

<blockquote>''Tip: Farms can take a while to set up, so it's best to start a farm for something that grows quick like sugarcane or netherwarts while you set up other farms.''</blockquote>

==== Chem Compounds ====
[[File:chemlab.png|thumb|250px|Create custom chem combination in The Chem Lab ('''/chemlab''').]]
Selling raw chems will only get you so far. For an even greater profit, you'll have to start selling chem compounds. These are combinations of raw chems, and sometimes other ingredients, which will always sell faster and for more than the sum of their components.

Chem compounds are can be crafted in your crafting grid or a crafting table. Check your recipe book for the recipes, or use '''/recipes'''. Compounds can also be crafted quicker in the '''/chemlab''' menu once you reach Bioengineer rank.

==== The Lab====
The Lab is unlocked at Bioengineer rank, and can be opened with the '''/lab''' command. Here, you can instant-craft chem compounds by simply clicking on the compound in The Lab screen while you have the ingredients in your inventory.

In order to craft a compound in The Lab, you must unlock the Lab formula for that compound. You will start earning Lab formulas unlocks at Bioengineer rank, and occassionally earn more as you rank up. These unlocks can be used in '''/lab''' to unlock formulas.

=== Police ===
[[File:Policearmour.png|thumb|125px|The police uniform is a distinct dark blue colour.]]
Police are a core mechanic of MCLabs. They roam the spawn world, searching for players who have chems. They can frisk players, which checks the player for chems. If they have chems, the police officer gets the chems and the player goes to jail. You can Identify police by their dark blue armor. The lighter an officer's hat, the higher their rank. They may also be in SWAT mode, which has them wearing a black leather hat and their armor being enchanted for PVP. Any player is able to enroll into the police force once they reach the Dealer rank with '''/police enroll'''.

See [[Police]] for more info.

=== Ranking-Up ===
The main purpose of money on MCLabs is to rank-up. You start off as a Junky, and can work your way up to the Director rank. Once you have enough money, you can rank-up with the '''/rankup''' command.

Each rank has rewards, and ranking-up gets you closer to Chem Lord status.

Once you complete all of the ranks, you can prestige, which will set you back to Junky of the next prestige, and earn you a Prestige Key and Museum Bust, among other rewards.

To see the costs of each rank-up, use '''/ranks'''. View [[Ranks]] for all perks and advantages to each rank.

=== Differences from Vanilla Minecraft ===
Some mechanics and features of vanilla Minecraft are disabled or altered on MCLabs:
* Pistons and hoppers are not craftable. They must be purchased from '''/shop''' or from other players.
* Shulker boxes are completely disabled.
* Bonemeal cannot be used in dispensers.
* Villagers cannot be spawned or cured.
* Illager raids are disabled.
* Nether portals are disabled (access the Nether with '''/warp nether''')
* Withers cannot be spawned (Exchange 3 wither skulls for a nether star with '''/convert''')
* Wet sponges can be used to soak up lava, turning them into dry sponges.

=== Worlds ===
[[File:Navigator.png|thumb|300px|The MCLabs Navigator can be used to easily travel between worlds, and can be accessed with '''/nav'''.]]

The main gameplay of MCLabs has three main worlds: Spawn, Towny, and Factions. Each world has unique features and advantages, and you should familiarize yourself with them before building your first farm.

You can easily travel between worlds by opening the world navigation menu with the '''/nav''' command.

There are a few more worlds, see [[worlds]] for information about them.

==== Spawn ====
The main functions of Spawn are selling chems and using player shops. This is where you start, and it's a safe place to be, as you're invincible while here (besides in prison, see below!).It's also a fun place to explore, as there's tons of hidden areas and details.

Use the [http://map.labs-mc.com:8432/ dynamic Spawn world map] to learn where everything is. There are also warps to many areas around spawn, see the available warps with '''/warps'''.

You can get back to the Spawn world at any time with '''/spawn'''.

==== Factions ====
Factions is the better farm world, and is intended for automatic farms that can be harvested automatically. Valuable items can be stored here, chunk hoppers can be utilized here, and raiding is permitted here. For more information on this, you can visit the [[Factions]] page.

==== Towny ====
Towny is the more casual farm world, and is intended for manual farms that must be harvested by hand.

Valuable items cannot be stored in chests and containers here, and chunk hoppers cannot be used here. Automatic farms are not permitted in Towny. For more information on this, you can visit the [[Town]] page.

=== Making Money ===
Selling chems is the quickest way to make money on MCLabs, but there's many more ways. A few are outlined below, but you can find much more detail on the [[Economy|Economy Page]]

==== Voting ====
Voting is the easiest way to make money on MCLabs. You can vote for the server every day by doing '''/vote''', or by going directly to the [http://mc-drugs.com/vote/ voting page], and voting on each link.

Voting doesn't only earn you money, but also Vote Tokens, Voter Crate Keys, Creeper Eggs, and more! Vote Tokens are a form of currency that can be used in '''/vshop'''.

Along with the rewards for each vote, the top five voters each week and each month earn huge cash rewards. Be sure to vote every day to become a top voter. There's also rewards for hitting voting milestones, which grant even more money, and some cosmetic chat tags. You can view all the rewards from voting with '''/vrewards'''.

==== Jobs ====
Jobs are a great way to earn passive income. You can make money while mining, exploring, woodcutting, fishing, etc.

<blockquote>''Tip: It's always a good idea to be in a job while doing other activities. For example, if you're mining out a farm, join the Quarrier job ('''/jobs join quarrier''').''</blockquote>

View the available jobs with '''/jobs browse''', and join a job with '''/jobs join <job name>'''.

==== Fishing ====
Fishing is a calm, relaxing break from the world of chems, and can be quite profitable. Fish can be sold to Chuck in the Fisher's Cove ('''/warp cove'''). You can also craft fish into sushi, which can be sold at '''/warp sushi''' for even more.

You can also earn rewards for fishing, including random enchanted items and fishing crates.

For more, see [[Fishing]] and [[Sushi]].

==== Parkour ====
Earn money for completing parkour courses in the Parkour world. Get there with '''/parkour'''. The rewards refresh every day, so you can keep completing courses for money.

== Factions ==
The Factions plugin allows you to create your own group of up to 15 players, and claim your land to protect it. Faction claims are great way to protect your land, just because you have a claim doesn't mean you are totally safe, players can use Creeper Eggs and TNT cannons to destroy your walls, or overclaim your land if you have more land than power.

=== Factions Commands ===
Here are the basic factions commands you need to know to get started:
* Create a faction: '''/f create <faction name>'''.
* Invite someone to your faction: '''/f invite <player>'''
* Join a faction: '''/f join <faction name>'''
* Claim land (by the chunk): '''/f claim <radius>'''
* Set your faction home: '''/f sethome'''
* Teleport to your faction home: '''/f home'''
* Check Total faction power '''/f who <faction name>'''
* Check personal power '''/f power'''

There's many more factions commands, too many to list here. To learn about them, you can read the [https://factions.support/commands/ official documentation].

For more information on Factions, view [[Factions]].

=== Factions Power ===
The amount of land your faction can claim is limited by the power of your faction. Each player has their own amount of power, and the faction's power is the total power of every player in the faction. The number of chunks you can claim is limited by your faction's power.

Dying will lower your power, and you will have to wait for it to regenerate. This will lower your faction's current power. If your faction's power is lower than the number of chunks your faction has claimed, other factions will be able to steal your land.

<blockquote>''Tip: Always keep your number of chunk claims lower than your total faction power, so that you can afford a few deaths without losing your land.''</blockquote>

You can gain more personal factions power by ranking up.

== Other Features ==

=== mcMMO ===
mcMMO adds skills and abilities that enchance vanilla Minecraft mechanics. Each skill has a level that you can increase by doing the corresponding activity. These activities include mining, excavation, swords, etc.

Your mcMMO levels will increase as you play - there's no need to use any commands.

If you want to learn more about mcMMO and your skill levels, use '''/mcmmo'''.

[https://mcmmo.org/wiki/Main_Page Click here to view the official mcMMO wiki for more information.]

=== Shops ===
==== Player Shops ====
You can buy from and sell items to other players at the Player Shops in Spawn. You can get here with '''/shops'''. Player shops are stocked and maintained by the players, so the items available and their stock is not always consistent.

If there is a shop available, you can rent it for $5000 per day, and create shops to sell and buy items.

When using a player's shop in the player shops, right-click the sign to buy the item, and left-click to sell, if available.

==== Server Shop ====
The server shop menu can be accessed anywhere with '''/shop'''. This shop has infinite stock, and you can only buy items.

=== Drink Brewing ===
Special drinks with unique effects can be brewed by police in buildings rented at Spawn. It can be bought and sold at the drink store in Spawn.

See [[Alcohol]] for more info.

=== Prestiging and Prestige Rewards ===
==== Prestiging ====
Upon reaching Director or Commissioner, you can prestige and progress to Junky or Informant of the next prestige. There are ten chemrank prestiges and five police rank prestiges.

After first prestige, in order to be able to prestige, you must unlock the next prestige. Chem prestiges are unlocked by selling a certain amount of a single type of chem. Police prestiges are unlocked by collecting a certain amount of contraband. You can see your progress towards prestige unlocks with '''/prestige progress''', and see how many prestiges you have unlocked with '''/prestige'''.

Following all of the prestiges, there is a set of Master Prestige ranks for both chemranks and police ranks. Each Master Prestige rank costs 5x the price of the corresponding rank. Upon completing Master Prestige, you will achieve either Chem Lord or Operator status, and can access Mastery ('''/mastery''').

==== Unlocking Prestiges ====
[[File:Chems_Prestige_Progress.png|thumb|300px|An example of what the prestige progress items look like. This one is specifically for selling Wheatium.]]
Once you are Director or Commissioner of your current prestige, you can not progress until you unlock the next prestige. Prestiges are unlocked by completing prestige achievements. For chem prestiges, this means selling a specific amount of one of the types of chem. For police prestiges, it means collecting a certain amount of contraband.

For the chemselling prestige achievements, your sales of each base chems tracked, and the number progresses each time you sell that chem. Each base chem has its own goal, ranging from 100-875 inventories of that chemsold. When you sell a chem combo, you'll earn progress for each chemin that combo, based on the ratios it is crafted with. You can also earn progress by running and posting runner jobs. You can only earn 50% of the progress for each chem through posting runner jobs, you must run the rest yourself (either selling your own, or by doing other players' runner jobs). When you meet the goal number of chem sold for a certain chem , you will unlock a chem prestige.

<blockquote>''Tip: To see how much of a certain chem you've sold through posting runner jobs, use '''/prestige runnersales <chem>'''''</blockquote>

Police prestige achievements are based on number of contraband collected from frisking players. 75 inventories of contraband must be collected to unlock each police prestige.

For each prestige achievement you complete, you will unlock one prestige. They can be done in any order. To unlock Chem Lord Status, you must complete the achievement of each for the 14 base chems.

View your unlocked prestiges with '''/prestige'''. View your progress for each prestige achievement with '''/prestige progress'''.

Each prestige will reward one prestige key.

=== Prestiging and Prestige Rewards ===
==== Prestiging ====
Upon reaching Director or Commissioner, you can prestige and progress to Junky or Informant of the next prestige. There are ten chemrank prestiges and five police rank prestiges.

After first prestige, in order to be able to prestige, you must unlock the next prestige. Chem prestiges are unlocked by selling a certain amount of a single type of chem. Police prestiges are unlocked by collecting a certain amount of contraband. You can see your progress towards prestige unlocks with '''/prestige progress''', and see how many prestiges you have unlocked with '''/prestige'''.

Following all of the prestiges, there is a set of Master Prestige ranks for both chemranks and police ranks. Each Master Prestige rank costs 5x the price of the corresponding rank. Upon completing Master Prestige, you will achieve either Chem Lord or Operator status, and can access Mastery ('''/mastery''').

==== Unlocking Prestiges ====
[[File:Chems_Prestige_Progress.png|thumb|300px|An example of what the prestige progress items look like. This one is specifically for selling Wheatium.]]
Once you are Director or Commissioner of your current prestige, you can not progress until you unlock the next prestige. Prestiges are unlocked by completing prestige achievements. For chem prestiges, this means selling a specific amount of one of the types of chem. For police prestiges, it means collecting a certain amount of contraband.

For the chemselling prestige achievements, your sales of each base chems tracked, and the number progresses each time you sell that chem. Each base chem has its own goal, ranging from 100-875 inventories of that chemsold. When you sell a chem combo, you'll earn progress for each chemin that combo, based on the ratios it is crafted with. You can also earn progress by running and posting runner jobs. You can only earn 50% of the progress for each chem through posting runner jobs, you must run the rest yourself (either selling your own, or by doing other players' runner jobs). When you meet the goal number of chem sold for a certain chem , you will unlock a chem prestige.

<blockquote>''Tip: To see how much of a certain chem you've sold through posting runner jobs, use '''/prestige runnersales <chem>'''''</blockquote>

Police prestige achievements are based on number of contraband collected from frisking players. 75 inventories of contraband must be collected to unlock each police prestige.

For each prestige achievement you complete, you will unlock one prestige. They can be done in any order. To unlock Chem Lord Status, you must complete the achievement of each for the 14 base chems.

View your unlocked prestiges with '''/prestige'''. View your progress for each prestige achievement with '''/prestige progress'''.

==== Prestige Rewards ====
At first prestige (Junky I), a museum bust is awarded ('''/museum busts'''). The sign updates with the prestige of the player each time they prestige. A player can have two busts; one for chem rank prestiges, and one for police rank prestiges.

Each prestige will reward one prestige key.

==== Mastery ====
Once you have obtained your Max Rank (either as through Chems or Police), you unlock the Mastery system where you can deposit money into your Mastery fund for more perks. Read more about Mastery, the requirements, and the rewards at [[Mastery]].

Police

2023-05-07T17:54:45Z

CraydorGM: /* Police Abilities */

<div style="float:right">__TOC__</div>

Police are a core mechanic of MCLabs. They roam the spawn world, searching for players who have Chems. They can frisk players, which checks the player for Chems. If they have Chems, the police officer gets the Chems and the player goes to jail. You can Identify police by their dark blue armor. The lighter an officer's hat, the higher their rank. They may also be in SWAT mode, which has them wearing a black leather hat and their armor being enchanted for PVP. Any player is able to enroll into the police force once they reach the '''Trainee''' rank with '''/police enroll'''. However breaking any police rules or found cheating while on duty will result in a permanent demotion from police and being reset to junky rank.

== Police System ==
[[File:Policearmour.png|frame|The police uniform is a distinct dark blue colour.]]
=== Police Duty ===
You can go on and off duty with '''/duty'''. While on duty you have a separate inventory than your normal one, this inventory clears when you go off duty, and when you die it also will clear your off duty inventory. It is highly recommended that you go on duty with nothing in your off duty inventory.

=== Duty Tips ===
Being seen while on duty can make it harder for you to frisk players and get their Chems. It is smarter to find places along selling routes to get a jump on players before they can react. Learning all the ins and outs of the most used selling areas will also help you cut players off who you weren't able to get the jump on.

=== Police Abilities ===
Police have access to special abilities that they can use while on duty. These can be unlocked from the ability tree by doing '''/ashop'''. Earn ability tokens to unlock these skills by ranking up as a cop. Abilities are either passive or active, you can have one of each while on duty. While on duty, police have a radio. Holding this radio and typing a message in chat will put the message into a private police chat.

Police are a core mechanic of MCLabs. They roam the spawn world, searching for players who have Chems. They can frisk players, which checks the player for Chems. If they have Chems, the police officer gets the Chems and the player goes to jail. You can Identify police by their dark blue armor. The lighter an officer's hat, the higher their rank. They may also be in SWAT mode, which has them wearing a black leather hat and their armor being enchanted for PVP. Any player is able to enroll into the police force once they reach the '''Trainee''' rank with '''/police enroll'''. However breaking any police rules or found cheating while on duty will result in a permanent demotion from police and being reset to junky rank.

== Police System ==
[[File:Policearmour.png|frame|The police uniform is a distinct dark blue colour.]]
=== Police Duty ===
You can go on and off duty with '''/duty'''. While on duty you have a separate inventory than your normal one, this inventory clears when you go off duty, and when you die it also will clear your off duty inventory. It is highly recommended that you go on duty with nothing in your off duty inventory.

=== Duty Tips ===
Being seen while on duty can make it harder for you to frisk players and get their Chems. It is smarter to find places along selling routes to get a jump on players before they can react. Learning all the ins and outs of the most used selling areas will also help you cut players off who you weren't able to get the jump on.

=== Police Abilities ===
Police have access to special abilities that they can use while on duty. These can be unlocked from the ability tree by doing '''/ashop'''. Earn ability tokens to unlock these skills by ranking up as a cop. Abilities are either passive or active, you can have one of each while on duty. While on duty, police have a radio. Holding this radio and typing a message in chat will put the message into a private police chat.

== Police Rules ==
'''Police rules are strictly enforced. Violating any of these rules may result in not only a ban but also removal of the ability to be a cop for the remainder of the map.'''

'''1:''' You may frisk anyone wherever you can reach them in the spawn world. You may not frisk anyone in the player shops.

'''2:''' Under any circumstances, you may not own a farm. You may help build farms, but can not harvest/plant them.

'''3:''' Do not frisk people in the wild world, at warp tutorial, or during a drop party.

'''4:''' Do not frame people by throwing Chems on the ground.

'''5:''' Do not take bribes from players (eg. Taking money to let them go, taking "bail" money from them).

'''6:''' Do not use speed, jump, or invisibility potions while on duty.

'''7:''' Do not use /hat while on duty.

'''8:''' Selling Chems for other players or selling Chems that you had before enrolling into the police is punishable by permanent ban.

'''9:''' The only time that cops are allowed to have a personal farm is when that farm is going to be used for brewing drinks. These farms must be very small and approved by an admin. Using a farm that is not approved, or for any other reasons than brewing drinks will result in a permanent demotion from cop and a ban.

'''Server rules also still apply to cops. Visit [[rules]] to view all of the server rules.'''

=== Crate/Special Items on Duty ===

Farm Rules

2023-05-03T02:33:30Z

CraydorGM:

==Farms and Grinders==
===Banned Farm Designs===
The following designs are not allowed under any circumstances.
# Farms that start/stop the flow of water, or create/remove water source blocks (e.g. using pistons, dispensers with water buckets, or placing water buckets) are not allowed under any circumstances.
# Automatic farms that use hoppers, droppers, dispensers, and/or pistons are not allowed in the Towny world. The exception to this rule is Hoppers used for collecting fallen cactus.
# Automatic farms that in any way use clocks clocks or redstone to harvest are not allowed in the Towny world.
# Automatic fish farms and fishing machines are not allowed under any circumstances.

===Redstone and Auto-farms===
Redstone devices like zero-tick farms, or any other redstone device which dupes or takes advantages of exploits are not allowed.

The type of redstone devices that are allowed will change as the game changes. If your farm does not fall under any of these examples but is causing significant lag it will still be disabled - build your farms with that in mind. Here are some general rules and suggestions to reduce lag on your farms:
# When using pistons, try to only set off the necessary amount to harvest, not an entire row.
# Do not spam pistons when harvesting. Pistons must go off only once.
# Detect grown crops with an observer instead of a timer, or have multiple timers with smaller sections so they do not activate at the same time.
# Reduce unnecessary light updates from redstone where possible. i.e. mushroom farms that use lights to break mushrooms should have spacers or be set up in a way that does not set off more than a few lights to harvest.
# Farms using flying machines must have the flying machine stop for at least two minutes after each cycle (roughly 4.5 stacks of items in a hopper clock).

'''If you have a farm of any sort using crop hoppers, set up Disposal chests and link crop hoppers to them (see [[Disposal Chest]])'''

===Spawners===
Rules about mob grinders must generally follow the same guidelines as the redstone farms above: Do not spam pistons to kill mobs and make sure the farm has some form overflow protection if it gets too full to prevent lag.

===AFK Farming===
Farms that can be "manually" harvested or planted while AFK will not be allowed. This notably includes the types of farms that let you hold your mouse button down and harvest crops while AFK, usually taking advantage of auto-replant and/or being moved around by water or some other means.

===Towny Farms===
Towny farms can only be manual farms. Automatic farms are not permitted in the Towny world.

== /farmrulestext ==
These are the rules as listed in-game when typing '''/farmrulestext'''
- Automatic farms that use hoppers, droppers, dispensers, and/or pistons are not allowed in the Towny world.
- Automatic farms that in any way use clocks clocks or redstone to harvest are not allowed in the Towny world.
- Hopper minecart collection systems are not allowed in the Towny world.
- '''Cactus farms that use hoppers for collection are allowed, as long as they do not violate the above rules.'''
- The farm types described above are completely allowed in the farm world (/farm)
- Check which world you are currently in with /worldcheck
- Farms that start/stop the flow of water, or create/remove water source blocks (e.g. using pistons, dispensers with water buckets, or placing water buckets) are not allowed under any circumstances.
- Farms that can be manually harvested while AFK (e.g. holding down a button while being moved by water) are not allowed under any circumstances.
- Farms that create a large amount of lighting updates, or unnecessary lighting updates, are not allowed under any circumstances.
- Farms using flying machines must have the flying machine stop for at least two minutes after each cycle (roughly 4.5 stacks of items in a hopper clock).
Violation of these rules will result in removal of the farm, as well as a warning on first offence and a ban on second offence.

Raiding

CraydorGM:

Raiding is a key component of factions and if you plan to venture out into the Faction World you will most likely face it in one way or another. Raiding is the process of locating and gaining access to someone else's storage, base, and/or valuables. Raiding takes many forms which will be gone over in the following sections. The subcategories of raiding can be boiled down into 2 main types tunneling (strip mining) and faction land raiding.

= Tunneling =
Tunneling is quite a simple way of raiding. Tunneling is where the player gets a pickaxe and/or shovel and sets out into any of the worlds to dig underground in the hopes that they will locate another player's unclaimed farm or vault. Once located anything can be done such as griefing or just moving loot out. It is important to note that most modifications that could make base finding easier are strictly forbidding and will result in a ban depending on severity. This includes but is not limited to mods such as x-ray, world download, replay mod, free cam mods, hacked clients, x-ray texture packs, and certain types of minimaps with cave finder or radar (see rules page for more information).

= Faction Land Raiding =
This is the more typical form of raiding that is thought of in factions. This is where players usually set up cannons to break into claimed land or a base. There are multiple ways to raid faction land using large sophisticated cannons all the way down to the simple noob tube TNT cannons. A very important note is that the server is 1.18.2 this means cannons from older versions will NOT work. They need to be made for this version more specifically. These changes and differences can be tested in the creative world with /creative. While the actual details of cannoning are very extensive more specific questions regarding it should be asked in support tickets if you can not obtain an answer in-game or via the wiki as cannon can be a relatively niche subject. Another important note is the server does have a 2,000 TNT limit per cannon. Exceeding this limit will cause your cannon to blow up so when making cannons be sure to account for this hard cap. Currently, there are no big publicly released cannons for this version. Meaning regen busting (the act of breaking a regen wall) or stacking large quantities of sand all at once will have to be made in cannons that are made by cannoners within your team/faction. However, for smaller raids, there are some publicly released cannons. One cannon that can be recommended to almost everyone is the “3x3 slime hybrid”; a simple YouTube search will give players a guide to building and how to use it. For players looking for something with more power behind it they may look to 1 stacker with longer ranges or concrete cannons (note concrete cannons only work on water walls so be sure to consider that both when raiding or making a base). For these cannons, there aren't specific builds for them but a search on youtube should yield helpful results. Staff members that are versed in cannons should also be able to help if you run into any problems with this. Finally, the last note is in regard to how to break water or lava walls. One must combine sand and TNT once they are shot out of the cannon to hybrid them together. Now that the TNT is inside of sand it isn’t considered to be in the water and can therefore deal damage to blocks around it even if submerged in sand or water. Obsidian is breakable as well on this server and its durability depends on where you are. To check its durability right click on it with a potato to see your progress on breaking it with TNT or other explosives.

This concludes the basic overview of MCLabs raiding! Further questions can be answered by the MCLabs support and staff team. Best of luck with all your future MCLabs raids.

<div style="float:right">__TOC__</div>
The main gameplay of MCLabs has three main worlds: Spawn, Towny, and Factions. Each world has unique features and advantages, and you should familiarize yourself with them before building your first farm.

== Main Worlds ==
=== Spawn ===
The main functions of Spawn are selling chems and using player shops. This is where you start, and it's a safe place to be, as you're invincible while here (besides in prison, see below!). It's also a fun place to explore, as there's tons of hidden areas and details.

You can get back to the Spawn world at any time with '''/spawn'''.

=== The Pit ===
The pit is a PvE and PvP experience unique to MCLabs. Players can pay to open it for everyone on the server. While it’s open, players can fight mobs and bosses to get exclusive drops and Boss Souls to use on /bshop. There are multiple areas with different levels of difficulty, so any player can enjoy The Pit.

See [[The Pit]] for more information.

== Other Worlds ==
=== Parkour ===
Complete parkour courses and improve your skills on the Parkour world. There's many courses with different difficulties, and the top times for each course are tracked.

You can get to the Parkour world with '''/parkour'''.

=== The Maze ===
The Maze is a labyrinth of obstacles and puzzles that only the most dedicated players can complete.

You can get to the Maze world the first time by finding the hidden portal in Spawn. Once you have found it, you will be able to use the '''/maze''' command to teleport to the Maze world.

=== Creative ===
The Creative world is a world of plots that players can claim to build on in creative mode.

You can get to the Creative world with '''/creative'''.

=== Archive ===
The Archive is a display of previous MCLabs (formerly MCDrugs) Spawn and Wild worlds. Currently, the Spawn worlds from 2014 to 2020 are available to explore, as well a few Wild worlds from the last couple maps.

You can get to the Archive world with '''/archive'''.
