Claims stop other players from building on your land. Claim as soon as you pick a home during the tutorial.
First claim
Leave 4–5 blocks of empty space around the build. If someone claims flush against your wall, you cannot expand.
Manage a claim
Run /claim manage and pick the claim.
From that menu you can:
- Delete the claim and get the blocks back.
- Trust a player so they can build.
- Allow placing blocks without allowing breaks.
