🧱 What Is a Chunk?

A chunk is a square section of land. When you claim a chunk:

Other players cannot break blocks

Other players cannot place blocks

Other players cannot interact with protected blocks

Unless they are in your party or are given permissions

👑 Parties (Your Kingdom / Group)

A Party is your claim-owning group.
If you want land protection, you must be in a party.

You can:

- Create a party

- Invite members

- Add allies

- Configure permissions

- Claim land together

🗺️ Claim Map

The mod includes a custom Hytale Map that shows claimed chunks.

It allows you to:

- See your territory

- See party claims

- View borders clearly

✨ Particle Borders

Chunk borders will display particle outlines to help you see claim boundaries, align builds, and avoid building outside your land.

🏰 'Hytale Medieval Roleplay Survival' Guidelines for Claims & Expansion

Each group starts with 25 chunks to claim with. To keep the server fair and rewarding, parties can level up over time and unlock higher chunk claim limits.

Admins will review your settlement based on the following criteria:

✅ Settlement Rating Criteria

- Population: number of unique players in the party who play (not a heavy consideration, bet helps)

- Infrastructure Points: number of builds completed

- Economy: number of player-run shops, trades, or market stalls

- Activity: total party playtime

- Aesthetic / Build Quality: optional staff approval (mainly for higher tiers)

As your settlement meets goals and expands, you will be promoted to the next tier and rewarded with more claim chunks.

🏰 Settlement Tiers & Claim Limits

- Camp: 25 chunks

- Village: 40 chunks

- Town: 65 chunks

- City: 95 chunks

- Realm: 130 chunks

- Kingdom: 180 chunks

- Empire: 250+ chunks

⚠️ Reminder: Promotions are earned through real growth and activity. This system is meant to reward settlements that build, expand, and contribute to the world.

Please keep your claims a moderate ways away from spawn. Go explore the world!

💡 Pro Tips

Claim land before building.

Expand your territory gradually.

Use allies for diplomacy.

Manage permissions carefully.

Don’t trust everyone with build access.
