  example_world: DISABLED
  example_only_claims: SURVIVAL_REQUIRING_CLAIMS

Claiming Chunks

The base command claims the chunk you are standing in:

/claim

An optional radius argument claims a square area centered on your current chunk:

/claim [<radius>]

Permission for the radius variant: scs.command.claim.radius.

To remove a claim:

/unclaim [<claim-name|*>]

Use * to unclaim all your claims at once (requires scs.command.unclaim.all).

Auto Modes

Several toggle commands automate claiming actions when you cross a chunk boundary:

CommandDescription
/claim autoclaimAutomatically claim each new chunk you enter.
/claim autounclaimAutomatically unclaim each chunk you enter.
/claim autoaddchunk <claim-name>Automatically add the chunks you enter to the named claim.
/claim autodelchunk <claim-name>Automatically remove the chunks you enter from the named claim.
/claim autoflyAutomatically toggle claim fly when you change chunk.
/claim automapAutomatically display the map when you change chunk.

Managing Chunks

Existing claims can be expanded, shrunk or merged:

CommandDescription
/claim addchunk <claim-name>Add the chunk you're standing in to the named claim.
/claim delchunk <claim-name> <chunk>Remove a chunk from the named claim. The chunk argument uses the format world;x;z.
/claim merge <claim-name> <claim-name>Merge two claims into one.
/claim chunks [<claim-name>]Open the chunks GUI of a claim.

Protected Areas (/parea)

Server staff can create and manage protected areas — admin-owned claims — using the /parea command tree:

CommandDescription
/parea [<radius>]Claim a protected area at your current chunk, optionally with a radius.
/parea setdesc <claim-name> <new-description>Change the description of a protected area.
/parea setname <old-claim-name> <new-claim-name>Rename a protected area.

/parea bans [<*|claim-name>]Check the bans of a protected area.
/parea add <*|claim-name> <player>Add a player to a protected area.
/parea remove <*|claim-name> <player>Remove a player from a protected area.
/parea tp <claim-name>Teleport to a protected area.
/parea listOpen the GUI listing all protected areas.
/parea chunks [<claim-name>]Open the chunks GUI.
/parea main <claim-name>Open the main GUI of a protected area.

/parea delchunk <claim-name> <chunk>Remove a chunk from a protected area.
/parea unclaim <claim-name|*>Unclaim a protected area or all of them.

Map & Visualization

SCS provides three commands to inspect claims around you:

CommandDescription
/claim see [<player>]Show the chunk borders of the claim you're standing at with particles. With a player argument, show the borders of that player's claims (requires scs.command.claim.see.others).
/claim mapPrint a chat map of the claims around you.
/claim automapToggle automatic map updates when you change chunk.

The map-type option in config.yml chooses between CHAT and SCOREBOARD rendering.
