QuestLines Claims

The all-in-one land management plugin for Hytale. Player claims, admin regions, polygon zones, rent/buy plots, region inheritance, and 25+ permission flags — combining everything SimpleClaims, OrbisGuard, WiFlowsClaims, and Hyxins do into a single, UI-driven, database-backed system.

One plugin. One UI. One database. No more juggling protection stacks.

Designed to plug into the QuestLines suite while remaining 100% standalone.

Why QuestLines Claims?

If you're running a Hytale server, you've probably tried mixing claims plugins for player land, separate region plugins for spawn protection, and a third plugin for rentable shops — each with its own config, its own UI, its own enforcement edge cases.

QuestLines Claims replaces all of it:

All under /claim and /region — sharing one wand session, one database, and one permission model.

What's New

Region Inheritance (1.1.0)

Any region can name another region as its parent. Child flags override the parent at overlap; everything else cascades — members, groups, exclusion patterns, even tri-state flag defaults (ALLOW / DENY / INHERIT).

Build a citywide ruleset on one parent region, then carve out plots underneath that inherit the rules but tighten the ones that matter.

Polygon (Non-Rectangular) Regions

No more pretending your circular arena is a square.

/region polymode lets you click vertices with the wand (or define them with /region pos1 / /region pos2), and the engine does proper XZ point-in-polygon enforcement.

Permission Groups

Server-wide and per-region group presets. Define a Trusted group once and assign members to it with a single click — no more flag-by-flag micromanagement.

Server-wide groups auto-resolve from permission nodes (questlinesclaims.group.<id>), so your existing rank system grants region access automatically.

Buffer-Zone Halo (1.1.1)

The world map and claim map now visualize the no-claim buffer as a colored ring just inside each claim's chunk edge.

When two claims share a buffer chunk, the chunk splits down the middle in both colors — owners can see exactly how close another claim sits to theirs.

Custom Entry Titles & Region Commands

Each claim and region can override its on-screen entry title and fire custom enter/exit chat messages.

Admin regions can also run enter/exit commands (cmd:, player:, action: prefixes — full QuestLines Core action support) and blocked commands (semicolon-separated list of commands players can't run inside the region).

Region Spawn Points

Set a per-region respawn point with /region setspawn.

Anyone dying inside the region respawns at that point — ideal for arena, prison, and event setups.

Renewable Rentals

Tenants can top up their lease while it's active, auto-renew on expiry, or recover during grace by paying.

A dedicated "Manage" page handles renew, auto-renew toggle, members, and abandon.

Core Features

Player Claims

• Chunk-based ownership via a configurable map UI (odd-sized grid, default 15×15)
• Claims are contiguous by design — new chunks must connect; splitting is automatically prevented
• Unique HSV-generated color per claim
• Editable display name
• Multiple claims per player
• Configurable minimum distance between different players' claims
• Buffer-zone halo visualization
• Stackable claim limit permissions (questlinesclaims.claim.chunks.N)
• Admin override via /claim addchunks
• Automatic claim decay for inactive players (configurable, default 30 days)
• /claim show preview nearby claims around your position

Admin Regions

• Two-point wand selection with live boundary rendering
• Wand-less coordinate commands:
  • /region pos1
  • /region pos2
  • /region select x y z x y z
• Polygon mode for non-rectangular zones
• Priority system for overlapping regions
• One-click Expand-Y for full vertical protection
• Tri-state default flags (ALLOW / DENY / INHERIT)
• Parent-region inheritance
• Per-flag exclusion patterns with wildcard matching
• Sortable region list
• Per-region enter/exit commands
• Blocked-command lists

Rent & Buy Plots

• Convert any admin region into a rentable or purchasable plot
• Optional economy integration via VaultUnlocked (auto-detected)
• Fully configurable pricing
• Lease duration support
• Warning intervals (default 7d / 1d / 1h)
• Missed payment → grace period → automatic Prefab reset
• Optional pro-rated refunds
• Tenant features:
  • Renew
  • Auto-renew
  • Members

  • Entry settings
• Buy regions:
  • Prefab created on purchase
  • Restored on sell
  • Confirmation popup before sale
• Per-player rental cap (questlinesclaims.rent.limit.N)
• Dedicated browser UI with filtering and detailed plot info

Permission Flags (25+)

A full category-organized permission editor groups flags by Building / Interaction / Combat / Movement / World / Admin:

Every flag is configurable per region, per member, per group, per claim, and globally for wilderness.

The main config's disabled_flags key hides flags you don't want exposed in player-facing editors.

Server admins can also use:

groups=admin,moderator,...

to auto-create server-wide permission groups tied to permission nodes.

World Integration

• Offline message queue for missed notifications

/region admin                     Open the region admin UI
/region create                    Open the create-region menu
/region rentbuy                   Browse rent/buy plots

Plot definition and admin-region creation share one wand session.

Permissions
