Basic Features

Mailboxes

• You can now craft red/green/blue mailboxes to place at your base, which through the Mail Bins found at spawn, you can send items or blocks to player's mailboxes from spawn!
  
  

Daily Bounties

• Complete random tasks every day for a chance to earn some Diamonds in return! A new task will be assigned every day at 10:00AM Central Standard time.

Per-Player Structure Loot

• All structure loot chests/barrels are per-player instanced, meaning everyone is able to loot the same structure without having to worry about someone else already looting it. You can tell it's an instanced loot chest as the top left text of the chest will be red!

Dungeons and Taverns Loot

• We are currently running a datapack on this server called Dungeons and Taverns which introduces some new structures, and some new enchantments. We currently have 2 of their new enchantments disabled as they cause issues with our anticheat; namely Outreach and Traveler.

Chest/Inventory Sorting

• We have a server side mod which allows you to automatically organize your inventory or chests with a click of a button. You can configure this at /chestsort or /invsort(same menu).

Interaction Visulizers

• We have custom animations for somethings in our server, which can be seen as you play. You can customize all of these unique animations using the /iv toggle command and their subcommands.

PVP Toggle

• You can enable/disable your PVP status anytime you wish using the command /pvp toggle. By default, everyone's PVP mode is disabled. Use this if you wish to fight other players who have their PVP enabled. Players with PVP enabled are designated with a red sword icon above their nameplate.

Gravestone System

• All player deaths on our server are pretty protected. Every time you die you'll generate a gravestone at your death location and you'll also be notified the coordinates in chat. You'll have 1 hour to get back to your grave before your items are dropped and normal Minecraft mechanics work. You can unlock your grave so others can access it by doing /graves unlock. By default, no one can access your grave in a normal death, but in a PVP death, your killer can access your grave.

Vanilla Tweaks

Armored Elytra

• Craft an armored elytra by combining your chestplate and an elytra in an Anvil. They will combine enchantments, and retain armor trims from your chestplates if you decide to split them later. Splitting an armored elytra is as simple as dropping an anvil on it.
  

Fast Leaf Decay

• Tree leaves will decay faster off freshly chopped trees, still dropping their normal loot.

Husk Sand

• Husk mobs will drop 1-3 sand blocks each time they die, as a simple, farmable renewable source of sand. Desert Temples will only spawn husks mobs in their bounding boxes, as a way to create husk farms easily.

Auto Replant & Smart Hoes

• Right clicking a fully grown crop will harvest it and automatically replant the seeds. You can also use Hoes to quickly harvest and replant crops in a 3x3 area, and can also be affected by the Fortune Enchantment.

Silence Nametags

• Renaming an entity with a nametag Silence will silence the entity completely. Works with mobs, minecarts, any entity really. You can use a shears to remove the nametag to enable their sound again.

Wood Stonecutter & Log Stripping

• You can put wood blocks into a stonecutter to make their wooden counterparts or strip them. More often than not, this can also save you wood in the long run.
  

Shapeless Portals

• Using obsidian or crying obsidian, you can make nether portals in any shape you want, as small as a 1x1 or as big as a 25x25.

Slime Bucket

• Capturing a small slime in a bucket will give you a Slime in a Bucket item, which will bounce in your hand when you're standing in a Slime chunk!
  

Advanced Shears

• Right clicking item frames with shears will turn them invisible, and can be used to retrieve nametags back from mobs.

Better Ladders

• Shift right clicking a ladder with an empty hand will instantly take you to the top/bottom of that ladder, and shift right clicking a ladder will also automatically build it downwards as far as it can go, allowing you to descend from heights safely.

Trowel

• A trowel is used to randomly place blocks from your hotbar automatically.
  

Cauldron Mixer

• Dropping concrete powders, dirt, and copper blocks into a water cauldron will automatically convert them into their respective item or oxidation tier.

Universal Bonemeal

• You can use bonemeal on sugar cane, nether warts, and cactus to grow them faster. You can also grow them from a dispenser.

Craftable EXP Storages

• Craft an Iron, Gold, or Diamond tier EXP bottle to store your extra experience. You can also repair your worn armor or items while holding your bottle and using /bbt repairall

Image Maps

• Supporters are able to upload any image onto a map and display them in-game with the /imageframe command.

Tool Stats

Shop Plugin Tutorial

• Users can create Shop chests for their shops which allow players to buy/sell their items easily, while also being able to easily locate items in stock and even see items being sold via our new Website integration!
• Shops are simple, requiring just 4 emeralds and a chest in a crafting table to create a Shop item. Placing the Shop will open a Setup GUI where you can set the price, stack amounts, and shop name as well as configure some extra things such as disabling the shop holograms, or changing their sizes. You can also craft shop chests using Barrels instead of a chest.
• Shop chests will only sell the items inside their inventory for the price you've set, so if you set a Shop chest to sell things for 2 diamonds, each stack of item inside the Shop(unless configured differently) will cost 2 diamonds.
• You can upgrade your Shop to be a double chest inventory while still appearing like a single chest by using another Shop Chest item on an existing shop!

Shop Trust System

• You can add players to your trust system to be able to edit your shop's stocks, and edit the shop's settings.

Shop Vaults

• You can create a shop vault which all of your earned money will be stored instead of it being sent to your inventory. Trusted players can also open and withdraw money from your shop vault if you give them access with the trust system.

Shop Commands

• '/shop trust/untrust' - Add and remove players from your shop's trust.
• '/shop search' - Find an item to see if it's being sold by a shop, the stock, price, and location!
• '/shop help' - the help command for basic information regarding the shops.
  
  
  

Shop Logs

• Players can also see transaction logs of their own shops by looking at them and doing /shop log.
  

Custom Homes Plugin

• BareBones uses a custom made home plugin that bases all player's homes off the beds they sleep in.
• By default, all server members start with only 1 home but can buy more from the vote shop to unlock a total of 3 homes that they can have.
• Supporters on the other hand, start with 3 homes and can unlock up to 9 total homes from the vote shop. Supporter Plus start with 6 homes.
• For members, there will be a 5 second delay to teleport to your home, and a 60 second cooldown between each use. Nitro/Supporters bypass both cooldown and delay and can teleport instantly.
• Each home unlock costs 35 vote points, or about 1 week straight of voting. They can also be sold at shops around spawn for various prices.
• View your homes by typing /homes in-game or /homebeds gui.
  
  
• You can rename homes, delete homes, and color code your beds within the Homes GUI.
• Deleting a home can be done by either breaking the bed, or renaming the home to 'delete' using the rename feature.
• You can also bypass the GUI menu entirely by directly teleporting to your beds using the '/beds homename' command.
• Want to have homes in the end or the nether? Instead of using a bed(which explodes) use a compass on a lodestone to set your home in those dimensions. They work the same as normal beds, but display as a lodestone. This consumes the compass on success.
