Commands · Softacre SMP

Before you start

These are all the commands every player on Softacre can use. Type /help in game any time for a short version of this list.

<player> means type a player's name, without the brackets.
Softacre keeps things close to vanilla: you get one home, there are no public homes, and there's no /back or teleporting to coordinates.

Homes & travel

Your home

/sethome Sets your home where you're standing. You get one home, so using it again just moves your home to the new spot.
/home Takes you back to your home. Handy after a long trip or a day of mining.
/delhome Deletes your home, if you'd rather not have one set.

Getting around

/spawn Takes you to spawn. That's where you'll find John C. Shopkeep and his shop eggs.
/warp Lists the public warps. Use /warp <name> to go to one.
/rtp Drops you at a random spot in the wild. Great for finding fresh land to settle. You can use it once every 30 minutes.

Teleporting to friends

/tpa <player> Asks to teleport to that player. They have to accept first.
/tpahere <player> Asks that player to teleport to you instead.
/tpaccept Says yes to a teleport request someone sent you.
/tpdecline Says no to a request.
/tpignore Blocks all teleport requests, for when you want some peace. Type it again to allow them.

If you're in a fight, you can't escape with /home, /spawn or /tpa for 15 seconds.

Claims

Claims protect your builds and chests. Claim with a golden shovel (right-click two corners) and check for existing claims with a stick. Claims need to be at least 5 blocks wide and 100 blocks in area. The full guide, including how to earn claim blocks, is on Playtime & Claims.

Making and managing claims

/claim Claims the area around where you're standing, if you'd rather not use the shovel.
/extendclaim <blocks> Grows the claim you're standing in by that many blocks, in the direction you're facing.
/claimslist Lists your claims and how many claim blocks you have left to use.
/abandonclaim Removes the claim you're standing in. You get all of its claim blocks back, so it's a good way to move house.
/claims Shows a quick claim guide in chat.

Trusting friends

Stand in your claim, then use one of these. Each level includes everything above it.

/accesstrust <player> Lets them use doors, buttons, levers, beds and lecterns.
/containertrust <player> Also lets them open chests and other containers, and use your crops and animals.
/trust <player> Gives them full build access. Use this for people you build with.
/permissiontrust <player> Lets them trust other players at their own level.
/untrust <player> Takes their trust away again.
/trustlist Shows who's trusted in the claim you're standing in.

Subdivisions

/subdivideclaims Switches your shovel to subdivision mode, so you can mark off a smaller area inside your claim with its own trust (a shared farm, for example).
/basicclaims Switches the shovel back to normal claiming.

PvP in your claim

PvP is off everywhere by default. Only a claim's owner can turn it on inside that claim.

/setclaimflag AllowPvP Turns PvP on in the claim you're standing in. Good for an arena or a duel spot.
/unsetclaimflag AllowPvP Turns it back off.
/listclaimflags Shows which flags are set on the claim you're in.

Other claim tools

/trapped Stuck inside someone else's claim with no way out? This moves you outside it.
/givepet <player> Gives one of your tamed pets to someone. Type the command, then right-click the pet.

Chat

/msg <player> <text> Sends a private message to someone who's online.
/r <text> Replies to the last private message you got, without typing their name.
/mail Leaves a message for someone who's offline. /mail send <player> <text> sends one and /mail read shows yours.
/ignore <player> Hides that player's chat from you. Type it again to see them again.
/afk Marks you as away. You're also marked AFK automatically after 10 minutes without moving.
/list Shows who's online right now.
/helpop <text> Sends a short message that only staff can see. Use it to flag something quickly, like a griefer in action. See Getting help for bigger issues.

Server & rewards

Info

/help Shows the in-game command list.
/rules Shows the server rules. They're also on the Rules page.

Playtime

Softacre only counts active time. Once you've been AFK for 10 minutes, that time stops counting toward your rank.

/playtime Shows your active playtime and how close you are to your next rank.
/playtime <player> Shows another player's total playtime.
/pttop Shows the players with the most playtime.

Ranks and what each one unlocks are on Playtime & Claims.

Voting

/voucher info Hold a Softacre Voucher and use this to see what it's worth. Right-click the voucher to redeem it. See Vouchers.

Death chests

/deathchest locate Shows where your death chest is, so you can go back and get your things.

Shops

Player shops are villagers you set up yourself with a Shop Creation Egg, which you can buy at spawn. The full walkthrough is on Shops.

/shopkeeper list Lists your shops.
/shopkeeper history Shows recent trades at your shops, so you can see what's selling.

Getting help

For anything more than a quick heads-up, like a grief report, a claim dispute, a lost item or a question about a rule, post in the Help channel on Discord. Staff can see the whole story there and follow up with you.

Not in the Discord yet? Join with this invite first.
In game, /helpop <text> sends a short message only staff can see. It's best for something happening right now.

Screenshots and coordinates help staff a lot, so include them if you can.
