Getting Started
Plots is a high-performance plot management system designed specifically for Hytale servers. This guide will help you set up the plugin and create your first plot world.
Installation
- Download the latest
plots.jarfrom the releases page. - Place the JAR file in your Hytale server's
modsdirectory (NOTplugins). - Restart the server.
- The plugin will create a
mods/Stoshe_Plotsdirectory with a defaultconfig.jsonand translations.
Optional dependencies
Plots runs on its own — nothing below is required, and none of it is bundled.
| Plugin | What it adds | Without it |
|---|---|---|
| TaleGuard | The mixin-only flags: item pickup, mob spawning, keep inventory, explosions, BuilderTools internals | Every other flag is still enforced natively; the bridge-only ones are hidden instead of failing silently |
| Hylograms | Floating ownership signs above plots | Holograms are disabled |
| PlaceholderAPI | Plot placeholders in scoreboards, tab lists and chat | No placeholders are registered |
| An economy plugin | Charging for claims and merges | Plot actions are free |
TaleGuard goes in earlyplugins/, not mods/ — it has to bootstrap before the classes it patches load.
Configuration
Before generating your world, you can customize the plot dimensions and materials in the config.json.
json
{
"Plots": {
"PlotSizeX": 32,
"PlotSizeZ": 32,
"RoadSizeX": 4,
"RoadSizeZ": 4
}
}Creating a Plot World
Plots registers its own world generator in Hytale. You can create a world using this generator via the Hytale world management system:
- Configure your world to use the
Plotsgenerator. - Join the world.
- Use
/plot autoor/plot claimto start building!
