Getting Started

Prerequisites

  • Server software: Spigot, Paper, Purpur, Folia, or Pufferfish
  • Minecraft version 1.18 or higher
  • A permissions plugin (e.g. LuckPerms, PermissionsEx) — optional but recommended

Installation

  1. Download SimpleClaimSystem from Modrinth or GitHub.
  2. Place the SimpleClaimSystem.jar file into your server's /plugins folder.
  3. Start (or restart) your server — do not use /reload.
  4. The plugin will generate its configuration files in /plugins/SimpleClaimSystem/.
  5. Configure the plugin to your liking (see Configuration section).
  6. Use /scs reload to apply changes without restarting.

Creating Your First Claim

Once installed, players can start claiming land immediately:

  1. Stand in the chunk you want to claim.
  2. Run /claim to claim the chunk you're standing in.
  3. Optionally use /claim <radius> to claim a radius of chunks at once.
  4. Use /claim map to see a visual map of nearby claims in chat.
  5. Use /claim automap to automatically display the map when moving between chunks.
  6. Use /claim see to visualize claim boundaries with particles.
  7. Use /claim main <name> to open the main GUI of your claim.
Tip: Use /claim list to open a GUI with all your claims, or /claims to browse all server claims.

Setting Up Permissions (LuckPerms)

To configure permissions with LuckPerms:

  1. Make sure you're an operator: /op <yourname>
  2. Run /lp editor to open the LuckPerms web editor.
  3. Click the link provided in chat and confirm with "Yes".
  4. Select Groups from the left menu, then choose your target group.
  5. In the search bar at the bottom, enter permissions like scs.command.claim.
  6. Press Enter, click Add, then click the green Save button.
