Claiming Land

Before creating any claim, we should check if there are other claims by other players nearby. Claims by different people should be at least 100 blocks apart unless both parties discuss otherwise. To do this, hold a stick in your hand and shift + right click to visualize all nearby claims. Claims are visualized using dotted lines of gold blocks, so look around for any dotted lines on the ground around you.

Once you've confirmed that there are no claims too close, we can begin claiming! A claim doesn't go down all the way. The lowest point of the claim starts at 5 blocks below the lower corner you made. It'll keep expanding down as you place blocks lower and lower in the claim, but it may reset when you change the claim size, trust, subclaims etc. If you want to make sure your claim stays extended all the way down, make one of the initial corners at bedrock level. Remember to not claim further down than you need to.

Claims are a way to prevent Grief/Related by other players into your base. It's clear and simple, You need Claim Blocks so you can claim as much as you can.
You can get those Claim Blocks by Purchasing them from:

/token shop - Using Tokens (by voting) or through voting.

Getting Started

You can “claim” land on Altitude to protect your builds. When you claim a section of land, other players will be unable to place or break blocks, kill animals, take crops, or open chests. Everything will be completely protected!

To claim land, you will need some basic tools: a golden shovel, and a stick. You can craft these items yourself or do /claim to receive them for free. The shovel is used for modifying claims and the stick is used for viewing claim information.

Resizing Your Claim

You can make your claim bigger or smaller any time by using a golden shovel. The process is similar to creating the claim. To make things easier, start by right clicking within the claim with a stick. This will show the border of the claim so you can see where the corners are.

To resize a claim, right click a corner you would like to move. Then, right click again wherever you would like to move that corner to. To make things easier, you don't need to right click the actual block, you can just point your crosshair at the block and right click from a distance.
