GUI

GUI Overview

C&N Claims has one main window with tabbed pages, a plot panel, a few things it draws in the world around you, small HUD panels, and its own layer on the world map. Anything the window does is also a chat command — see Commands.

Hotkeys

Hotkey	Opens
Ctrl+Shift+U	The main window

All of them can be rebound in the game's controls menu.

In the world

All of these are per player and remembered in claims_client.json. Switch them with the client commands below (typed with a dot) or with the buttons on the Player tab.

Command	What it does	Default
.claimsbanner	Banner: when you walk into a city, or from one plot to another, the city's name and arms, the plot and the sub-plot you entered, appear at the top of the screen	on
.claimsborders	Border grid: a wireframe on the edges of city land within a few plots, in each city's colour, and on all four sides of the plot you stand on. Nearby sub-plots are outlined green where you may build and amber where not	off
.claimsmarkers	Plot markers: small squares over nearby plots for PvP, fire, explosions and mobs, and whether you may use, build and attack there; names and offers of nearby sub-plots	off
.claimsplotpanel	Open the plot panel on every plot change, not only on K	off

The server can also highlight the borders of the plot you stand on with /plot borders on|off.

Plot panel (K)

Shows the plot you are standing on: city (or Wild lands), plot name, plot group, alliance, PvP state and price if it is for sale. It closes by itself after a short while.

HUD panels

Client command	Panel
.claimshud	Your balance and your city's
.warhud	Live war score while a battle window is open
.bounties	The public bounty board
.claimshudedit	Move the panels: drag them where you want, the layout is remembered

Each panel hides itself when it has nothing to show.

World map

The mod adds a map layer called Plots. Every claimed plot is drawn in its city's colour. Point at a plot for its city, its price if it is for sale, and the city's coat of arms.

A city's colour comes from /city set color <name> or /city set colorint <int>, or the plot colour page. The same colour is used for the border grid.

The server chooses how plot areas are drawn:

CITY_AREA_VISIBILITY_STATE = ALL | WITHOUT_BORDER | WITHOUT_INNER

Display settings (server)

PLOT_BORDERS_COLOR_WILD_PLOT	[64, 255, 255, 0]	Colour of unclaimed land (a, r, g, b)
