This page walks through day-to-day usage of AreaClaims, plus the full command and configuration reference. For a quick feature overview see the README — this page goes into more depth.
- Getting started
- Adjusting a claim's boundary
- All commands
- Server configuration
- JourneyMap integration
- Give a player permission to create claims (OP level 4 by default — server owners can lower
this per-feature via the admin config screen,
/areaclaims config feature <feature> <0-4>). - The player clicks "Neuer Claim" / "New Claim" in the editor (
/areaclaims open) or the equivalent GUI button, then left-clicks with any held item to place polygon points and right-clicks (or clicks an empty area) to finish the selection. - Configure members, rules, entry messages, and pricing from the same editor.
Next to "Erweitern" / "Expand" (for adding independent new parts), the editor has an "Anpassen" / "Adjust" button for fine-tuning an existing part block by block:
- Click Adjust, then left-click blocks within 15 blocks of you (any height) to toggle them in or out of the claim — the affected area is colored live as you click.
- Right-click to end the session. You'll see a confirmation: blocks you added are charged at the normal per-block price, blocks you removed are refunded at an admin-configured rate (separate for main claims and sub-claims, rounded down in the server's favor). Both can happen in the same session.
Unlike Expand, Adjust only reshapes the existing part you're standing in/near — use Expand for adding a brand-new, independent part.
Base command /areaclaims, alias /ac. Most day-to-day actions have a GUI equivalent
(/areaclaims open) — commands are provided for scripting/console use and share the exact same
validation logic as the GUI.
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
/areaclaims open |
Opens the claim editor GUI showing your own claims (and any you're a member of). |

/areaclaims delete <claim> |

/areaclaims showmode <particle|tint|off> |
Sets your preferred boundary display mode. |
/areaclaims role <claim> <player> <role> |
Sets a player's role (NONE/MEMBER/STAFF/COOWNER) on a claim. |
/areaclaims rule <claim> <rule> enable <minRole> |
Enables a deny-rule, bypassable from the given role upward. |
/areaclaims rule <claim> <rule> disable |
Disables a deny-rule entirely. |
/areaclaims buyout <claim> <rule> |
Permanently buys out a rule's configured price (if set). |
/areaclaims rename <claim> <newName> |

/areaclaims entrymsg <claim> ... |
Configures entry title color, welcome message/color, boundary color, and color-linking. |
/areaclaims admin |
OP4: opens the admin claim browser (view/edit any claim on the server). |
/areaclaims config ... |
OP4: server-wide configuration (see below). |
entrymsg sub-arguments: color <hex> · welcome <text> · welcomecolor <hex> ·
welcomeduration <ticks> · boundarycolor <hex> · linkboundarycolor <true|false>.
Note: per-viewer display position, duration/permanent toggle, and text styling are configured by each viewer individually via the display preferences screen, not by the claim owner through this command.
All server-owner settings are configurable in-game (OP level 4) via /areaclaims config or the
admin server-config GUI screen (reachable from /areaclaims admin) — there is no config file to
hand-edit.
| Setting | Command | Default |
|---|---|---|
| Feature unlock level (create claim / expand claim / rule buyout) | /areaclaims config feature <feature> <0-4> |
4 (OP4 only) |

8 |
| Block-tint boundary display range (chunks) | /areaclaims config tintrange <chunks> |
2 |
| Per-block claim/expand price, per-rule buyout price | admin GUI only | none |
| Price divisor ("X per N blocks") | admin GUI only | 1 |
| Adjust refund rate (main claim / sub-claim, per removed block) | admin GUI only | none |
| Wilderness exit message |

| JourneyMap integration on/off | admin server-config GUI toggle | on (if JourneyMap installed) |
OP level 4 always has full access regardless of these thresholds — the settings only control what other players can do.
If JourneyMap is installed on the server, every main and sub-claim's boundary is automatically shown as a colored polygon overlay to all online players, using the claim's own boundary color. No JourneyMap installation is required on the client for AreaClaims itself to work — players without JourneyMap simply won't see the overlay. Admins can turn this off server-wide from the server-config screen without needing to uninstall JourneyMap.
