Wilderness Guide

Updated for the latest release!

This guide will outline some of the information and commands you will need to know for owning and controlling your wilderness land.



What is wilderness land?
Wilderness land is land owned by players in the Wilderness world, it is protected from all users apart from those who are granted permission to act on land. Inorder to effectively build in the wilderness world you will need to buy land and control it, because of this griefing won't be a problem, if you give someone the right to use/build/edit your land you do so at your own risk.

What is a chunk?
The Minecraft world is split into 16x16 block columns from which all blocks are located. Using the wilderness world, much like with towny you will own 16x16 areas from bedrock to sky-limit. To highlight the chunk you are currently in simply type /wild chunk highlight.



Your Land
At any time you can type /wild chunks list to get a full list of all the land you own. Using this you can also teleport to your owned land using /wild chunks home [NUM] where the optional [NUM] is the chunk number.



Map
Using /wild chunks map you can get a chat representation of the current Wilderness chunks around you. The different shapes and colours represent different states of chunk near you. This can be a useful feature to determine where to buy your next spot or to find out what land around you is actually owned.



Other Land
All land which isn't set to be public, and you aren't an owner/builder will be locked from your building; you can only build in areas you have right to do so. If you want to know information about a chunk you can type /wild chunk info, and as previously explained you can highlight the borders of the chunk.



Buying Land
Buying land/a chunk is simple, typing the command: /wild chunk buy will check if you are able to purchase the chunk you are currently standing in, from there you can then type /wild chunk buy confirm if you're allowed to buy the land and it is at a suitable price for you.

Most users will get their first 10 connected chunks for free (A connected chunk is one where in one of the directions you are directly located next to another chunk you own.) from there onwards the prices gradually increase as you own more land. If you decide you want to split away from your existing land you can do so without selling it, it will cost an extra fee though. As a member you'll also earn 1 free chunk for every 3 hours of gameplay on the server; you can find more information about that at Noobscraft.com/free, and using /wild free in-game.

Inorder to ensure that everyone has enough space to enjoy the wilderness you cannot purchase land which is too close to another user. (Apart from "Friends" which are explained later)



Selling Land
Much like buying land, selling land can be done using /wild chunk sell and then confirming it with /wild chunk sell confirm. When you sell land you will remove all your rights to access any of the blocks in the land and will lose anything you've put in the chunk.



Transferring Land
You can set up your land to be transferred to another player by typing /wild chunk transfer. This will set your land up for purchase by any of your friends; they will be able to then take the land from you (using /wild chunk buy) for a fee and the price of their next chunk. Once a friend of yours has purchased the land from you, you will no longer have any control of it, it will be given directly to them. Please be careful when doing this, you will lose your land! If once you have set a chunk up to be transferred you no longer wish to do it and you still own the chunk you can simply type the command again and any transfers will be cancelled.



Managing Land
If at any point you want to lock a particular chunk you own so that your builders (explained later) don't have rights you can do so using /wild chunk lock. If you don't want to lock your chunk but want to make certain features public (everyone can do it) you can do so using /wild chunk public, from here you can choose what feature to toggle as explained in-game.
  • Build = Give everyone builder rights. (Do it at your own risk)
  • Herd = Give everyone the rights to interact with the animals on your land.
  • Switch = Give everyone the right to open doors, use levers, buttons, etc.



Allocating Builders
Builders are individuals who have full access to modify virtually all aspects of your chunk (apart from the permission allocation and ownership itself). They can break and place blocks and do most Minecraft actions on your land. To view your current builders you can type /wild builder list. You can add builders by typing /wild builder add [NAME] replacing [NAME] with the name of the player you want to be a builder, similarly you can remove them using /wild builder remove [NAME].



Organisers
These are individuals who have full access to all of the units (explained later) on your land providing you haven't denied their access. Managing these people is very similar to your builders; use /wild organiser list to get a list of your current organisers. You can add organisers by typing /wild organiser add [NAME] replacing [NAME] with the name of the player you want to be an organiser, similarly you can remove them using /wild organiser remove [NAME].



Friends
If you trust a few particular users you can "friend" them. You can view these players using /wild friend list. Adding a friend is easy using the command /wild friend add [NAME] replacing name with the player's name. You can remove friends using /wild friend remove [NAME]. Both of these commands will effect both you and the other individual. Becoming friends is not something to be taken lightly, doing so will allow them to purchase land directly next to yours, thus limiting your growth, it will however not give them building rights; you'll need to make them a builder as well to do that.



Chests, Furnaces, etc.
For the purposes of keeping it simple any block where other items can be stored within it we're referring to as a "unit" (this replaces LWC in the wilderness and connects it all to your owned land). Commands relating to these blocks therefore being /wild unit. When you or and builder of your land first place any unit it is defaulted so only you, as the land owner, are able to access it. You can however change the access rights to give certain individuals or groups of individuals the right to access your units. Only you as the land owner are able to perform commands on a unit.

To act on a unit you must be directly facing it with your cross-hair over the block you want to act on, ensuring that no other blocks are in the way. To get information about a particular unit type the command /wild unit info.

By default anyone you have added as an Organiser (see above) is able to access all units you place on your land. Plus if a builder or another user places the unit themselves (having got permission to build on your land) they will automatically be granted access. You can toggle allowing your organisers access to the unit using /wild unit organisers while looking at the unit. Similarly you can allow/disallow your builders access using /wild unit builders. To see whether they currently have access use the info command above.

You can also give specific users who are able to access the unit; these will be given access irrespective of your organiser or builders settings. Just type /wild unit allow [NAME], it's a toggle so type it once to add them and then again to remove them.

If you want to you can also deny a specific users access, this will override any other groups they may be part of and block their access to a unit. To do this just do /wild unit deny [NAME]. They will be unable to then access that specific unit.

If you wanted to you could make the unit public; this would allow anyone to access it (apart from those in the deny list as explained above). To do this simply look at the unit and type /wild unit public, if at any point you no longer want it to be public you can type it again and it will reset.

At any point you can reset a unit back to its default settings by simply typing /wild unit reset. Once you have done this you can then check the permissions as explained above using the info command and set any you want to.



Shortcuts
There are a lot of commands to type out using the Wilderness system, you can tab complete things, but if you want to do things quickly you can also use some of these shortcuts:
  • '/wild home [number]' = '/wild chunks home [number]'
  • '/wild mark' = '/wild chunks mark'
  • '/wild buy' = '/wild chunk buy'
  • '/wild sell' = '/wild chunk sell'
  • '/wild map' = '/wild chunks map'
  • '/wild go' = '/wild chunks go'
  • '/wild list' = '/wild chunks list'
  • '/wild free' = '/wild chunks free'
There are also hundreds of spelling variants for each of the commands, so hopefully things should be easy to use. If you don't understand anything just ask for support!
