A comprehensive land protection mod for Hytale servers that allows players to claim chunks by painting directly on the map. Features party-based permissions, custom GUIs, and admin tools for managing protected areas.
Simple Claims is a powerful land protection system designed for Hytale multiplayer servers. Created by Buuz135, it allows players to protect their builds by claiming chunks directly on the map using an intuitive painting system.
What Does This Mod Do?
Simple Claims enables players to protect specific chunks of land from other players. The protection system works through parties - you create a party, invite members, and configure what permissions each member has within your claimed territory.
Key Features
Visual Chunk Claiming
Claim areas by painting directly on a custom Hytale map interface. This intuitive system makes it easy to visualize exactly which chunks you own and quickly expand or modify your territory.
Party-Based Permissions
Create parties and configure specific permissions for each member:
- Block interaction
- Block breaking
- Block placing
Each permission can be toggled on or off for party members, giving you complete control over who can do what in your claimed land.
Custom GUI Interfaces
The mod includes beautiful custom interfaces for:
- Quick claiming/unclaiming chunks
- Party management and editing
- Map visualization of claims
- Permission configuration
Admin Tools
Server administrators get additional commands:
- View all existing parties
- Edit any party’s settings
- Override chunk protections
- Modify chunk limits for parties
- Create owner-less parties for server areas

Frequently Asked Questions
What happens if I leave my own party?
Ownership transfers to the first party member. If there are no other members, the party is deleted and all chunks are unclaimed.
Can I have multiple parties?
Currently, each player can only be in one party at a time.
How many chunks can I claim?
The default limit is set by the server administrator using the admin commands.
