Tools

WesterosCraft uses a combination of web tools, in-game systems, building mods, and communication platforms to coordinate collaborative building at scale. This guide covers what each tool does and how to use them effectively.

In-Game Systems

The server uses several systems for navigation, plot management, and communication between builders.

Warp System

Instant teleportation to named locations across the map. Use /warp [location] to teleport (e.g., /warp winterfell). Every major location and most active projects have warp points.

Always include the nearest warp when giving directions or posting about builds. Warping is faster than coordinates for getting people to the right area.

The Builder rank and above can /setwarp [warp name] to set a warp for their project.

When you have completed a project, be sure to clean up any extraneous warps using /delwarp you may have created in order not to clog up our warp system.

Builder Tags and Feedback System

Builder tags: Signs placed above builds showing who's responsible. Always place your builder tag (with your username) when you claim a plot. This prevents confusion and shows ownership.

Marker signs: Provide project information at warp points - style guides, approved materials, and expectations. Check these before claiming plots.

Done blocks: Place near your builder tag when finished to signal you're ready for review.

Feedback blocks (melons): When someone reviews your build, they place melon blocks with signs explaining what needs improvement. Feedback might come from your Steward, project leaders, Wardens, or other builders. When giving feedback you must make sure to include your name to remain accountable and allow for follow-up questions if required.

Response blocks (pumpkins): After addressing feedback, place pumpkin blocks confirming you've made changes or asking follow-up questions.

This system creates visible conversation threads directly on builds. Check your builds regularly for feedback, address it promptly, and apply lessons to future work. Please review the Feedback guide on feedback good-practice.

Custom Blocks

WesterosCraft's custom modpack adds hundreds of blocks beyond vanilla Minecraft, organized in your creative inventory by category. Our building blocks are powered by our custom WesterosBlocks mod. Custom block types include:

• Medieval building materials (thatch, wattle and daub, various stone types)
• ASOIAF specific blocks (shields, wildfire, weirwood, etc)
• Region-specific blocks (Dornish sandstone, Northern timber, etc.)
• Decorative elements (furniture, tools, food items)
• Terrain blocks (dirt, gravel, stone gradients)
• Custom vegetation (trees, plants, crops)

Not all blocks are appropriate for all regions. Study regional style guides and completed builds to learn which blocks define each area. Use your personal plot to experiment with combinations before using them in projects.
