How to claim land

Claiming tools

Wooden shovel
Stick

This video shows how to create and resize claims using the shovel. Depending on circumstances, you might find this an easier way to manage claims than using commands:

Listing and Deleting claims

/listclaims - Lists all your claims and the amount of claim blocks available to you.
/abandonclaim - Abandons the claim you’re standing in.
/abandonallclaims - Abandons all claims you own.

Giving claim trust to other players

/trust player - gives player permission to build, destroy, etc, and everything in /accesstrust and /containertrust
/accesstrust player - gives player permission to use doors, levers, buttons, fence gates, etc.
/containertrust player - gives player permission to open chests and other containers, and perform farming tasks, such as milking cows, killing and breeding animals, destroying and planting crops, etc, and everything in /accesstrust
/permissiontrust player - gives player permission to /trust and /untrust other players.

You can use public in place of player to give that trust to all players. Generally useful for /accesstrust to allow others to open doors and push buttons, but preventing them from killing animals or breaking blocks.

Managing the claim trust list

/trustlist - Lists players you’ve trusted to the claim you’re standing in.
/untrust player - Removes player from your trust list inside the claim. To remove the player from all of your claims, stand outside the claim when executing the command.
/untrust all - Removes everyone from your trust list for that claim.
