SimpleLandClaim
A land-claim and grief-protection mod that’s fully server-side — vanilla clients are protected and see everything (outlines are particles, not client rendering). Claim with a golden shovel, shape your claim to fit your build, and keep visitors from breaking in while still letting them shop.
Requirements
Section titled “Requirements”- Minecraft 26.2, Fabric with Fabric API
- Server-side; vanilla clients supported.
Download
Section titled “Download”Claiming (golden shovel)
Section titled “Claiming (golden shovel)”- Right-click two corners to claim that rectangle. Touching claims you own merge, so you can build any shape. Corners can be set from up to 64 blocks away by aiming.
- Right-click the sky to toggle CLAIM ↔ CARVE mode. In carve mode the two corners remove area instead — trim a claim to fit your build; carve it to nothing to delete it.
- Hold the shovel to see outlines: green = your claims, orange = other players’.
Protection
Section titled “Protection”Inside a claim, non-owners can’t break or place blocks, open containers, or touch item frames and armor stands — but they can still walk through doors/gates/plates and trade with villager shops, so a protected shopping district stays fully shoppable. Buttons and levers are blocked for visitors by default. Pistons can’t move blocks across a claim border. Ops bypass all protection.
Admin zones (golden hoe, ops)
Section titled “Admin zones (golden hoe, ops)”Zones define where players may claim: no zones = claim anywhere; once any zone exists, claims must sit fully inside one. The golden hoe works just like the claim shovel but on zones (right-click corners to add, sky-toggle to carve, touching zones merge). Players use /claim show to see where they’re allowed to build.
