# Lands Overview ## 🏰 **Lighthouse Lands System Overview** The **Lands** plugin lets every player or group form their own **Land**, grow it into a **Town**, unite into **Nations**, and even engage in friendly **Wars**. It replaces our old claim system with a deeper, community-driven system of politics, protection, and progression. --- ### ⚒️ **Claiming Land** - Players can claim land in the **Overworld, Nether, and End**. - Use `/lands create ` to start your first land. - Cost: **₤32** (includes 1 chunk). - Each extra chunk costs **₤1**, increasing slightly each time you claim. - Claims should be adjacently connected to your existing land. - You can use **claim blocks or a selection tool** to claim chunks easily. - You’ll get basic tools when you first join to help with claiming. --- ### 💰 **Economy & Upkeep** - Each land has its own **bank** (`/lands deposit` / `/lands balance`). - Upkeep and taxes run **once a week (Sundays at 11 PM ET)**. - **Taxes:** Up to ₤12 per area. Members who can’t pay are automatically untrusted. - **Inactive owners** (offline too long) may lose ownership after several weeks. --- ### 🏡 **Land Features** - You can: - **Set a spawn** for teleporting home. - **Trust players** to build and manage land with `/lands trust`. - **Create sub-areas** to rent or sell to others. - **Keep inventory** on death inside your land. - Use `/lands chat` for private group chat. - Land storage, teleport, and flight are all enabled. - Visual borders show ownership using colored particles. --- ### 🧱 **Land Growth (Levels)** Lands grow stronger the more active and populated they become:

Level	Title	Requirements	Benefits
1	Settlement	New land	10 claim chunks
2	Village	3 members, 30 chunks, ₤480 bank	+1 claim
3	Town	6 members, 50 chunks, ₤1920 bank	+2 claims
4	Province	12 members, 100 chunks, ₤9600 bank	+4 claims
5	Land	24 members, 200 chunks, ₤23040 bank	+8 claims

--- ### 🌍 **Nations** - Nations unite multiple lands under one banner. - Create one with `/nations create ` for **₤3200** (requires a level 3+ (i.e. Town or higher) capital). - Nations pay **₤0.1 per chunk upkeep** and can tax their member lands. - Levels: - **Federation** → **Nation** → **Empire** - Higher levels unlock potion-like **nation effects** (Speed, Jump Boost, etc.) and more total claims. --- ### ⚔️ **Wars** - Wars are enabled! (Opt-in) - Lands and nations can **declare war** on others. - Both sides must **accept** the war before it starts. - The war starts 24 hours after it's accepted, to give the challenged time to prepare - Each team earns points by: - Player kills (+1) - Capturing enemy flags (+5) - First to reach the point goal wins (minimum 35 pts). - **Capture flags** can unclaim enemy chunks if held for 10 minutes. - Capture flags can only be placed while the defending player is online - **War shields** protect new or recently attacked lands for several days. --- ### 🚶 **Player Perks** - Players earn small progression bonuses the longer they play (e.g., extra claims over time). - `/lands wild` teleports you to a random location (₤32, 10 min cooldown). - `/lands unstuck` teleports you out of glitched spots (1 h cooldown). - You keep your inventory if you die inside your own land. --- ### 🎵 **Extras** - Lands play sounds for actions like claiming, teleporting, or leveling up. - The `/toplands` leaderboard ranks the richest lands. - Particle colors show who owns or trusts a claim: - 🟢 Green – Your land - 🟡 Yellow – Trusted in land - 🔴 Red – Untrusted area - 🌿 Green Tint – Wilderness --- ### 🧭 **Getting Started** 1. `/lands create ` — start your land. 2. `/lands claim` — claim your first area. 3. `/lands trust ` — invite friends. 4. `/lands deposit ` — fund your land bank. 5. Grow your land into a town, then join or found a nation!
