Ranks, Progression & Flight

⭐ TIME LEAVES A MARK
PlagueMC progression rewards continued play—or at least continued reappearance after the world files another death certificate. Donor and staff roles follow separate paths.

Automatic ranks

New players join as Members.

• Member → Trusted: one hour of tracked playtime.
• Trusted → Veteran: 43,800 minutes of tracked playtime—about 730 hours—and a $1,000 account reward on completion.

Use /autorank or /ar to open Autorank help and view the progression available to you. Checks run periodically, so a completed requirement may not update at the exact second the timer changes.

Ranks can add conveniences such as more homes or other server permissions. They do not place anybody above the rules.

Timed flight

Use /tempfly, /tfly, or /tf for the timed-flight menu and command help.

Configured behavior includes:

• A small first-join flight-time bonus.
• Daily flight time based on eligible permission groups.
• Flight time does not drain while standing on the ground.
• Idle players do not consume time.
• Flight has a maximum height of Y 275.
• Players can transfer flight time when their permissions allow it.

Do not assume flight works in every region or world. Watch your remaining time and land before it expires.

Read the full Timed Flight guide → for countdown rules, combat shutdown, altitude limits, transfers, trails, and failure cases.

Flight is not a rescue plan. Carry rockets, blocks, slow-falling supplies, or a safe landing route. The timer feels no loyalty and the ground has been waiting.
