Commands & Features

⌨ THE POCKET REFERENCE
Player commands, aliases, interactions, and feature notes—without the staff-only noise.

Command Quick Reference

⌨ START HERE
Commands are not case-sensitive. Replace text inside <angle brackets>; text inside [square brackets] is optional. Syntax is the thin line between teleportation and standing still while night closes in.

Travel

Command Action
/spawn Return to spawn
/rtp or /wild Random safe teleport
/sethome [name] Set a home
/home [name] Visit a home
/delhome [name] Remove a home
/tpa <player> Request teleport to a player
/tpahere <player> Invite a player to you
/tpaccept / /tpdeny Answer a request
/back Return to a previous location when permitted

Communication

Command Action
/msg <player> <message> Private message
/r <message> Reply to the latest private conversation
/ignore <player> Toggle ignoring a player
/discord Show PlagueMC Discord information
/help General command help

Economy and progress

Command Action
/bal or /balance View account balance
/pay <player> <amount> Transfer account balance
/baltop View leading balances
/ar or /autorank Autorank help and progress
/tf or /tempfly Timed-flight help
/vote Voting links
/votestreak Voting streak information

Permission denied? The command may belong to another rank, world, or role. Some doors remain locked; whatever is behind you does not.

Homes & Teleport Commands

Homes

/sethome
/sethome <name>
/home
/home <name>
/delhome <name>

Members begin with one home; higher ranks may have more. If you only have one, the unnamed form is simplest.

Teleport requests

/tpa <player>
/tpahere <player>
/tpaccept
/tpdeny

Requests expire. Movement, damage, cooldowns, or region restrictions can cancel a teleport.

Spawn, random travel, and return

/spawn
/rtp
/wild
/back

/rtp and /wild are aliases. /back is permission-dependent and should never be your only recovery plan.

Protection Commands

🔐 COMMAND, THEN CLICK
Most LWC commands arm an action. Run the command and click the block you want to modify before the world schedules another interruption.

Command Purpose
/cprivate [players] Private protection with optional shared users
/cpublic Public use, protected ownership
/cpassword <password> Password protection
/cunlock <password> Unlock a password protection
/cmodify <player> Add access
/cmodify -<player> Remove access
/cdonation Deposit-only container
/cdisplay View-only container
/cremove Remove one protection
/cinfo Show owner and flags
/climits Show protection limits
`/chopper on off`
/cautoclose Toggle automatic door closing
/cpersist Repeat protection actions without retyping

Avoid /cremoveall unless you genuinely intend to remove every protection you own.

Passwords are visible to anyone you share them with. Prefer named private access for valuable storage. Trust is precious; diamonds are easier to count afterward.

Economy, Ranks, Flight & Voting

Account economy

/balance
/pay <player> <amount>
/baltop

The account balance is the server’s unified currency. Player shops, direct payments, rewards, and compatible plugins debit or credit the same balance.

Progression

/autorank
/ar

Autorank tracks eligible playtime paths. Member reaches Trusted after one hour; the Veteran path is a long-term milestone.

Timed flight

/tempfly
/tfly
/tf

Use the plugin’s help output for subcommands available to your group. Time does not drain while grounded or idle under current settings, but it does drain during active flight.

Read the full Timed Flight guide → for balances, countdown behavior, restrictions, warnings, and troubleshooting.

Voting

/vote
/votestreak

Voting options and rewards can change. Use the live command output as the current source of truth.

Do not test zero flight time at altitude. Land first, experiment second. Gravity has already completed its testing.

Feature Interactions

Shops

Shulker boxes

Right-click an eligible shulker box in your inventory to open it. Commands and chat are blocked while the virtual container is open, so close it before trying another action.

Poses

/sit
/lay
/layback
/bellyflop
/spin
/crawl

Some poses may depend on permission or location.

Trees, heads, and votes

/treecuter
/tc
/heads
/myhead
/sellhead
/hpc
/vote
/votestreak

Use each base command for live help. Features evolve faster than static documentation; the dangers remain admirably backward-compatible.

Bedrock player? Command syntax is the same, but GUI clicks and inventory interactions can feel different through cross-play. The translation layer has limitations; hostile mobs remain fluent.

Postboxes & Parcels

? ITEM POST
Send a full stack of items to another player—even while they are offline—because apparently trusting the postal system is less dangerous than meeting in person.

Postboxes are secure parcel storage tied to your player account. Your deliveries follow your UUID, so changing your Minecraft name will not make them disappear.

Quick start

  1. Place a barrel where you want your postbox.
  2. Look directly at it and run /postbox create.
  3. Hold the item stack you want to send.
  4. Run /postbox send <player>.
  5. The recipient can collect it with /postbox open or by right-clicking their registered barrel.

⚠️ Check before sending. The entire stack in your main hand is posted immediately. The postbox does not recognise “wait, not that stack” as a valid command.

Commands

Command

What it does

/postbox

Shows the available postbox commands.

/postbox create

Registers the barrel you are looking at as your postbox. 

/postbox register

 also works.

/postbox send <player>

Sends the complete stack in your main hand to that player.

/postbox open

Opens your parcel storage from anywhere. 

/postbox collect

 also works.

/postbox remove

Unregisters your barrel without deleting stored parcels. 

/postbox unregister

 also works.

The shorter alias /post can be used instead of /postbox.

Registering a barrel

Look directly at a barrel and run:

/postbox create

You may have one registered barrel at a time. Registering a new one automatically replaces your old registration. A barrel already registered by somebody else cannot be claimed.

Right-click your registered barrel to open your mail. Other players cannot open or break it through the postbox system. Staff may remove a registration when necessary.

Breaking your own registered barrel removes its registration, but your stored parcels remain attached to your account. You can still use /postbox open or register a new barrel.

? The barrel is an access point, not the parcel storage itself. Do not place items inside it expecting them to be mailed.

Sending a parcel

Hold the stack you want to send in your main hand, then run:

/postbox send PlayerName

When the delivery succeeds:

You cannot send a parcel to yourself. A delivery will also be refused if your hand is empty or the recipient already has 45 parcel stacks waiting.

✅ Items are only removed after the system confirms that the recipient has room in their postbox.

Collecting parcels

Open your mail in either of these ways:

Each parcel appears as an item stack in the Postbox menu. Click a parcel to move it into your inventory. The menu refreshes after every collection.

If your inventory cannot hold the complete parcel, it stays safely in the postbox until you make enough room. Items cannot be placed into or rearranged inside the Postbox menu.

The postbox holds up to 45 parcel stacks. The bottom row is reserved for controls, including the red Close button.

Removing or moving your postbox

To unregister the current barrel without breaking it, run:

/postbox remove

Removing or replacing a registered barrel does not delete your waiting mail. Register another barrel whenever you are ready, or continue using /postbox open without one.

Troubleshooting

“Look directly at a barrel”

Move closer, aim at the barrel itself, and run /postbox create again.

“That barrel is already registered”

The barrel belongs to another player's postbox. Choose a different barrel or ask its owner to unregister it.

“The postbox is full”

The recipient already has 45 parcel stacks waiting. Ask them to collect some mail before trying again.

“Make enough room in your inventory first”

The selected parcel must fit as a complete stack. Clear sufficient inventory space, reopen the postbox, and click it again.

I removed or broke my barrel

Your parcels are still stored. Use /postbox open, or register a replacement barrel with /postbox create.

? If a successful delivery appears to be missing, note the sender, recipient, item, approximate time, and any message shown in chat before contacting staff.

Timed Flight

🪽 FLIGHT IS BORROWED TIME
Timed flight lets eligible survivors leave the ground while their stored flight balance lasts. The sky is temporarily negotiable. Gravity is not.

Use /tempfly, /tfly, or /tf. All three names open the same feature.

Quick start

  1. Check your remaining balance with /tf time.
  2. Stand somewhere that will remain survivable if flight stops.
  3. Run /tf to enable flight.
  4. Run /tf again to disable it, or use /tf on and /tf off explicitly.
  5. Land before the meter reaches zero. The ground has no grace period.

Do not activate flight as an emergency afterthought. No balance, a combat tag, a restricted area, or the height limit can prevent it from starting.

Player commands

CommandWhat it does
/tfToggles timed flight on or off.
/tf onEnables timed flight when you have time and no active restriction.
/tf offDisables timed flight without spending the remaining balance.
/tf timeShows your stored flight time.
/tf helpShows the commands currently available to your role.
/tf pay <player> <time>Transfers flight time when your role has transfer permission.
/tf trailsOpens particle-trail selection when your rank includes it.

Transfer amounts accept time units such as seconds, minutes, hours, and days. Access is permission-dependent; if /tf pay is unavailable, the command is not part of your current role.

When the meter runs

Your balance counts down during active timed flight. Under the current server settings:

The action bar displays the live flight meter. Warning titles appear with 30 seconds, 15 seconds, and 5 seconds remaining.

At zero, flight ends and fall damage is enabled. The timer is a countdown, not an estimate and certainly not a parachute.

Height, regions, and automatic return

Timed flight has a maximum altitude of Y 275. Reaching the ceiling disables flight. Descend well before the limit rather than arriving there with momentum and theological questions.

World or WorldGuard restrictions can also suspend flight. When a temporary restriction clears, the system is configured to restore enabled flight automatically when possible. Do not rely on that restoration to catch a fall; carry a mundane backup plan.

Combat restrictions

Timed flight is disabled when you:

The PvP flight lock lasts 10 seconds. Fall damage remains active when combat disables flight. Ordinary attacks involving mobs do not currently trigger the TempFly combat lock, although the mob may have its own views on aviation.

Flight is not a combat escape. PvP still requires consent, and combat-tagged flight shutdown is intentionally capable of making altitude somebody else's problem—briefly, before it becomes yours.

Receiving and keeping flight time

Flight time is stored on your player account. Receiving additional time while your balance is empty does not automatically launch you; enable it with /tf when you are ready.

New players receive a small first-join flight allowance. Other grants depend on current ranks, rewards, events, or staff actions. Use /tf time rather than assuming an advertised or historical reward is still active.

Particle trails

Ranks with trail access can use /tf trails to choose from their permitted particles. Trails are cosmetic and identify active flight; they do not change speed, balance use, or the severity of the landing.

Troubleshooting

“You have no more flight time”

Your stored balance is empty. Confirm with /tf time. Flight cannot be enabled until more time is added.

“You are currently combat tagged”

Wait at least 10 seconds after the last player attack. Find solid ground first; the combat lock is not interested in how architecturally inconvenient this is.

“Flight is disabled in this region/world”

Leave the restricted area safely. Flight may restore automatically after the restriction clears if it was still enabled.

“Y 275 is the maximum altitude”

Descend below the ceiling. Flight is disabled at the configured maximum height.

The timer is not decreasing

If you are grounded or considered idle, this is expected. The meter drains during active airborne use.

The command says I lack permission

Your rank may allow basic flight but not transfers, trails, speed controls, or other subcommands. Use /tf help to see the useful surface available to you.

☣ Final flight check: watch the meter, respect Y 275, avoid combat, and keep blocks, rockets, slow falling, water, or a landing route available. The server lends you the sky one second at a time and repossesses it without sentiment.

Chat Channels

💬 PICK THE RIGHT RANGE
Local is your everyday channel. Global reaches the whole server, and Help is for questions.

Available channels

Channel Tag Who hears it? Best for
Local L Players within 125 blocks in your current world Nearby conversation, building and exploring together
Global G Everyone listening across all worlds Server-wide conversation and announcements
Help H Everyone listening across all worlds Gameplay questions and requests for assistance

Staff may have additional private channels which are not available to regular players.

Change your active channel

Normal chat is sent to your active channel. Local is the default.

/ch L
/ch G
/ch H

You may use either a channel's short tag or its full name, such as /ch Global.

Check your available channels with:

/ch list

Check who is listening to your active channel with /ch who, or use /ch who Global to check a specific channel.

Send one message without switching

Local, Global and Help support quick messages. This sends one message to that channel without changing your active channel:

/l Anyone nearby?
/g Has anybody found a trial chamber?
/h How do I protect a chest?

This is especially useful when you normally stay in Local but occasionally need the whole server.

Join or leave a channel

Public channels are normally added automatically when you connect. You can also manage them manually:

/ch join Help
/ch leave Help

Leaving your active channel makes Herochat select another channel you can use. Public channels may be added again when you next reconnect.

Why did nobody hear my Local message?

Local only reaches players within 125 blocks, in the same world, who are listening to Local. Try /g message when you deliberately want to reach everyone.

Herochat also limits very rapid messages. If you see an anti-spam warning, wait briefly instead of resending the same line.

Keep chat readable: Use Help for genuine questions, avoid repeated messages, and follow the Community & Chat rules in every channel.

Private Messages, Ignores & Emotes

✉ DIRECT CONVERSATIONS
Use direct messages when a conversation does not need to fill public chat. Server rules still apply.

Send a private message

The standard command is:

/msg PlayerName Your message here

The aliases /tell, /pm, and /w work the same way.

You can also type a Twitter-style private message directly into chat:

@PlayerName Your message here

The @ must be immediately followed by the player's name.

Reply quickly

Use /r to reply to your current private-message conversation:

/r Sounds good!

/reply is the longer version of the same command. Always check the displayed recipient before sharing anything sensitive, particularly when several people are messaging you.

Ignore a player

Toggle messages from a specific player with:

/ignore PlayerName

Run the same command again to stop ignoring them. Ignoring affects what you receive through Herochat; it does not replace reporting harassment or threats to staff.

Disable all private messages

Toggle all incoming private messages with:

/ignorepm

Herochat reminds you when this setting is enabled. Run /ignorepm again when you want to receive private messages.

Emotes

Trusted players can describe an action in their current channel with /me:

/me waves from the watchtower

The emote has the same audience as ordinary chat in that channel. A Local emote remains local; a Global emote is server-wide.

Useful chat help

/ch help
/ch list
/ch info

Private does not mean exempt: Harassment, spam, scams and prohibited content are still against the rules. Use the reporting process when staff need to investigate.
