If you can't plant your crops, first make sure that you have enough light. The following are the only types of crops that do not require any light to grow: Cactus, chorus flower, nether wart, glow berries, sugar cane, and cocoa beans.
  • Be efficient with your water use. One water source block will hydrate farmland in a radius of four blocks. You don't need to have water next to each block of farmland. This example is the most efficient use of water.
  • Likewise, make sure to maximize the efficiency of water placement when farming sugar cane, as shown in this example.

  • Take advantage of speed and invisibility potions - police aren't allowed to use speed potions, so unless they have a mount or use their speed boost, you will always be faster than them.
  • Waiting to sell your chems until a Chem Price Booster is active can be much more profitable, but it usually means there will be more police online.
  • Take advantage of all of the spawn exits, don't just use the main front/side exits.
  • Use F5/third person to look for police behind you without losing speed.
  • Certain cops usually have regular camping spots - take note of where they like to camp so that you can plan the best route.

  • Prison can be very profitable, as its value rate never drops below 1.00x - but be cautious of other players, as PvP is enabled there!

Running

  • When posting a runner job, take the price of the chem being sold into consideration. If you're posting higher-value chems, you can probably lower the cut. Likewise, post higher cuts for the lower-value chems.
