Global Claim Settings
These settings control the general behavior of player claims across your server.
Important Note
Be careful! Changing claim size won't affect previously placed claims, these settings only apply to newly created claims.
Configuration Options
The following options can be changed in-game using the
/claimorous config command to open the config GUI or by
editing the configuration file directly (not recommended).
# [Global Claim Configuration]
# Tier 0 claim size (side of the cube)
tier0_claim_size = 7
# Tier 1 claim size (side of the cube)
tier1_claim_size = 11
# Tier 2 claim size (side of the cube)
tier2_claim_size = 15
# Minimum height for claims
min_claim_height = -64
# Maximum height for claims
max_claim_height = 319
# Minimum permission level to bypass claim protection
min_permission_level_to_bypass = 2
# Maximum claims per player
max_claims_per_player = 3
# Minimum distance between claims
min_distance_between_claims = 16
# Enable owners to share permissions (Block_Breaking, Item_Use, Entity_Interact) with other players
enable_permission_system = true
# Allow owners to share permissions management with other players
allow_permission_management_sharing = false
Claim Tiers
Claimorous! features three tiers of claims, each with different sizes:
| Tier | Size (Cube Side Length) | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Tier 0 | 7 blocks | Basic claim, suitable for small builds or starter bases |
| Tier 1 | 11 blocks | Medium-sized claim, good for established bases |
| Tier 2 | 15 blocks | Large claim, ideal for complex builds or community areas |
Technical Note
Claim sizes must be odd numbers because the Claim Anchor is placed at the center of the claim. This ensures that the protected area extends equally in all directions from the anchor.
Placement Limits
Claims can only be placed within specific height limits:
- Minimum Height: -64 (or the world's minimum height)
- Maximum Height: 319 (or the world's maximum height)
These limits ensure that claims can be placed throughout the entire vertical range of the Minecraft world.
Claim Restrictions
To maintain balance and prevent claim spam, the following restrictions apply:
- Maximum Claims per Player: By default, each player can own up to 3 claims
- Minimum Distance Between Claims: Claims from different players must be at least 16 blocks apart
Bypass Permissions
Server operators (or players with the appropriate permission level) can bypass claim restrictions. By default, this requires a permission level of 2 (OP status).
Warning
Allowing non-OP players to bypass claim restrictions can lead to grief and abuse. Only change this setting if you have a trusted staff team with clear guidelines.
