`Database.Username`	`""`	Database username
`Database.Password`	`""`	Database password
`Database.MaximumPoolSize`	`10`	Max connection pool size

World Generation Configuration

These settings are also in config.json and control how the plot world is generated.

Option	Default	Description
`PlotSize`	`32`	Size of each plot in blocks
`RoadWidth`	`5`	Width of roads between plots
`GroundHeight`	`64`	Y-level for surface generation
`BorderEnabled`	`true`	Enable visual plot borders
`Environment`	`"Surface"`	Hytale environment type

Layer Depths

Road patterns

Example usaged for 5 blocks wide roads

"RoadPattern": "XYYYX",
  "IntersectionPattern": [
    "XYYYX",
    "YZZZY",
    "YZZZY",
    "YZZZY",
    "XYYYX"
  ],
  "RoadPatternBlocks": [
    {
      "Char": "X",
      "BlockType": "Rock_Stone_Cobble"
    },
    {
      "Char": "Y",
      "BlockType": "Rock_Stone_Brick"
    },
    {
      "Char": "Z",
      "BlockType": "Rock_Stone_Brick"
    }
  ],

Customizing World Generation

This guide explains how to customize the plot world for your server.

Grid Layout

The plot world generates as an infinite grid:

+----------+-----+----------+
|          |  R  |          |
|   PLOT   |  O  |   PLOT   |
|  (32x32) |  A  |  (32x32) |
|          |  D  |          |
+----------+-----+----------+
|   ROAD   |  X  |   ROAD   |
+----------+-----+----------+
|          |  R  |          |
|   PLOT   |  O  |   PLOT   |
|          |  A  |          |
|          |  D  |          |
+----------+-----+----------+

Each grid cell = PlotSize + RoadWidth (default: 32 + 5 = 37 blocks)

Terrain Layers

From bottom to top:

Layer	Y-Level (default)	Block
Bedrock	0-2	`BedrockBlockType`
Stone	3-59	`FillBlockType`
Dirt	60-63	`DirtBlockType` (plots only)
Surface	64	`PlotBlockType` or `RoadBlockType`
Border	65	`BorderBlockType` (plot edges only)

Customization Examples

Larger Plots with Wider Roads

{
  "PlotSize": 64,
  "RoadWidth": 7
}

Creates 64x64 plots with 7-block wide roads.

Desert Theme

{
  "PlotBlockType": "Soil_Sand",
  "RoadBlockType": "Rock_Sandstone",
  "BorderBlockType": "Rock_Sandstone_Half",
  "FillBlockType": "Rock_Sandstone",
  "DirtBlockType": "Soil_Sand"
}

Lower Ground Level

{
  "GroundHeight": 32
}

No Borders

{
  "BorderEnabled": false
}

Removes the border walls between plots and roads.

Applying Changes

Stop your server
Edit plugins/Souza/Plot/config.json
Delete the existing plot world folder (if regenerating)
Start the server

Note: World generation settings only apply when the world is first created. To apply changes to an existing world, you must delete and regenerate it.

Quick Start

Join the server and use /plot auto to get your first plot
Build freely within your plot boundaries
Add friends with /plot add <player> to let them build
Visit others with /plot visit <player>
Return with /plot tpback after teleporting
If you have multiple plots, use /plot home 2 to teleport to your second plot
