Getting Started with Claims
Protect your builds with Oakheart's chunk-based claiming system. This guide walks you through creating your first claim.
Step 1: Find Your Spot
Use /wild to teleport to a random location in the wilderness. Look for a good spot to build!
Step 2: Create Your Land
Once you've found your spot, create a land with a name:
/lands create MyBaseReplace "MyBase" with whatever you want to call your claim.
Step 3: Claim Your First Chunk
Stand in the chunk you want to protect and run:
/lands claimDone! That 16x16 chunk is now protected from bedrock to sky limit. Only you can build or break blocks there.
Step 4: See Your Claim
Toggle chunk border visualization:
Green particles = Your claimed chunks
Red particles = Someone else's claim
No particles = Unclaimed wilderness
Step 5: Claim More Chunks
You start with 4 chunks and earn +1 per hour for your first 4 hours = 8 free chunks total.
To claim more chunks, walk into any unclaimed chunk and run /lands claim. Your chunks don't need to be connected — claim wherever you need!
