Movecraft is a multi-purpose plugin that allows players to create vehicles by building, and then move and interact with these vehicles with Movecraft and its extension plugins. Though Movecraft features have a learning curve, it's an immensely useful tool for mastering the world of Trekcraft! Linked below are some tutorials to begin working with movecraft.
Why do we use Movecraft?
Movecraft as a plugin is exponentially useful for the server, especially since vanilla Minecraft's main transportation system, Elytras, are disabled. Movecraft allows us to make Trekcraft feel more interconnected and realistic on the level of the player. And it's completely optional! You don't necessarily need to build Movecraft to have success on the server.
How do I use Movecraft?
Movecraft is relatively complicated in its inner workings. The basic premise is that you build a ship and then are able to control and move that mass of blocks around with commands/special signs. This is known as piloting. To pilot something you use the command /pilot (type of craft). Craft types refer to the different types of ships you can control. These are separated by their maximum and minimum size, and all have different speeds. To learn more about Movecraft and related topics, ask on the Discord or in server chat, or view the Movecraft Info section in the server guide.
Towny is a very commonly-used plugin that allows players to create their own towns and nations, protected from mobs and other players in the chunks they claim. On Trekcraft, you can use the command /t new (name) to start a new town and /n new (name) to create a new nation with your town. Both of these actions cost in-game money. Nations can ally with each other, go to war, share cash in a central nation bank, and talk in their own exclusive nation chat. Likewise, towns are a great unit of organization for players living in your city. There are so many features of Towny not mentioned here, and the best way to see them in action is to use them on the server!
Why do we use Towny?
Towny is a very useful plugin for us as a server to be able to make our Earth feel both more unique and realistic, with the addition of the town and nation mechanics, but also to protect builds created by our players and to make the server infinitely easier to experience.
