Editing Claiming & Defenses

= Setting Up a Claim (Minto Guide) =

This guide explains how to set up and manage land claims on a Minto-enabled Minecraft server using anchors, nodes, nests, and paper. Claims help protect your builds, control access, and engage in the server’s raiding system.

== 🧱 Anchors ==
Anchors are the core of any claim.

* '''Place an Anchor Block'''
** Craft or acquire an anchor and place it on the ground to start a new claim.
** The anchor marks the center of your protected area.
** More anchors can be placed to expand claim coverage.

* '''Anchor Access'''
** Only players with anchor access can manage claim settings and block interactions.
** Anchor access is granted manually or through node permissions.

== 🧩 Nodes ==
Nodes link players to claims and allow trust management.

* '''Connecting Nodes'''
** Place nodes within the anchor’s protection radius.
** Nodes extend claim features and can represent trusted access points.

* '''Managing Trust'''
** Use nodes to trust or untrust other players.
** Trusted players can interact with certain blocks inside the claim (depending on access state).

== 🐦 Nests ==
Nests allow community or team-based claim sharing.

* '''Nest Ownership'''
** A nest is a shared group that can hold access to multiple anchors and claims.
** Players added to a nest get permissions based on their nest role.

* '''Collaborative Claiming'''
** Claims can be assigned to a nest to share access across members.
** Useful for factions, friends, or town setups.

== 📜 Paper Utility ==
Paper is used for in-claim access configuration.

* '''Changing Block Access'''
** Left-click any block inside a claim while holding paper.
** Cycle through access states:
  - '''None''': Only players with anchor access can interact.
  - '''Trusted''': Only trusted players and those with anchor access can interact.
  - '''Public''': Anyone can interact freely.

* '''Visual Feedback'''
** Changing access with paper may display UI or chat feedback showing current block state.

== 🛠️ Tips & Reminders ==
* Use `/guide protection anchors` in-game or visit [https://minto.xyz/guide/protection/anchors the online guide] for visuals and updates.
* Keep anchor blocks protected; if an anchor is destroyed, your claim may be at risk.
* Paper interaction is key to managing public-facing parts of your base, such as doors, chests, or crafting tables.
