Towns, Settlements and POIs

Towns

A player created settlement which has reached a certain size can apply for Town status. Towns get extra perks including a marker on the Dynmap which is visible by default, a listing on the RTGame Wiki Minecraft Server page and an in-game Sightseeing Advancement for players who visit.

To be classed as a town you must reach these requirements:

  • At least 5 claims by different players
  • At least 3 completed buildings
  • At least 3 players who have been active in the past 2 weeks
  • A communal nether portal
  • A decent wiki page that documents the town, see this example

To apply for town status, please ensure you meet the above requirements, then politely DM Katuen#8936Katuend with the link to the Wiki page. Please allow some time for your town to be checked.

Settlements

Settlements are smaller locations which have not reached a sufficient size to be considered a Town. The requirements for a settlement are considered on a case-by-case basis, but typically two or more active players and a Nether connection are sufficient.

Like towns, settlements can have a directory block on the Nether Hub directory. Settlements will also appear on the Dynmap in a separate layer which is hidden by default.

Points of Interest (POI)

Points of interest are locations that might be of interest to multiple players.

Some examples of this may include:

  • Community events - Secret Santa, Easter, etc
  • A notable building or structure - George statue, Labyrinth, etc
  • PvP Arenas

POIs are considered on a case-by-case basis, but generally require:

  • A decent wiki page
  • A direct nether connection
  • A welcome board / book for those who visit
  • Any building to be largely completed

POI may also eligible for a Sightseeing Advancement for players who visit, on a case-by-case basis. To ask about this, please politely DM Katuen#8936Katuend with the link to the Wiki page.
