======== Claiming ======== A rudimentary player-oriented claiming system is available for use in WorldGuard. It creates regions like ``/rg define`` would, but players must use a special command with separate permissions. WorldEdit selections are still required for selecting the physical area of the region, although only the ``worldedit.selection`` permission is necessary for that. Player can claim selected regions using the ``/rg claim`` command:: /rg claim region_name The player running the command will automatically be added as a region owner. Access to the command is provided by the ``worldguard.region.claim`` permission. Rules ===== * **Maximum region count:** Unless the player has the ``worldguard.region.unlimited`` permission, the player cannot exceed the maximum number of regions that is permitted in the :doc:`../config` for the player. * **Maximum region volume:** Unless the player has the ``worldguard.region.unlimited`` permission, the volume of a claim must not exceed the ``regions.max-claim-volume`` configuration. * **Overwrite prevention:** The region to be claimed cannot replace an existing one with the same name. * **Overlap prevention:** The region to be claimed cannot overlap another region that the player is not an owner of. * **Overlap only owned:** If ``regions.claim-only-inside-existing-regions`` is enabled, the region must overlap another region that the player is an owner of. Note that the region to be claimed does *not* need to be fully contained within another region (see `WORLDGUARD-2689 `_). .. note:: At this time, polygonal regions are not supported. See `WORLDGUARD-3173 `_. Other Commands ============== You can give players the ability to use other commands (like setting flags and adding members) by setting the appropriate :doc:`../permissions`.
