DG Claims
Place a block. Claim the land. That's it.
DG Claims turns land protection into a single intuitive action: buy a region block from the shop, place it where you want your claim, right-click to manage everything from a clean GUI. No complex commands, no learning curve.
✨ Features
🧱 Block-based claims
- Buy a region block from the in-game shop (Vault economy)
- Place it - your claim is automatically created around it (16×16 default, expandable up to 100×100)
- Right-click the block to open a full management GUI
- Pick it up anytime - your settings, members, and skin travel with you
👥 Roles & permissions
- Owner → Co-Owner → Trusted → Member → Visitor
- Per-role permission flags: build, break, interact, container access, PvP, and more
- Individual member overrides for fine-grained control
- Transfer ownership to anyone via the GUI
🚩 Region flags (all actually enforced)
- PvP toggle (applies to everyone, including the owner)
- Mob spawning filter (All / Hostile only / Passive only / None)
- Fire spread, lava/water flow (in & out), piston push-out
- Mob griefing (endermen, ravagers, withers)
- Leaf decay, hunger loss, keep inventory on death
- Item frame rotation, explosions, weather bypass
🛒 Marketplace
- List your claim for sale to other players
- Built-in Inspection Mode: buyers teleport in with 60s invulnerability + glow effect (no trap-attack exploits)
- Cooldowns, expiry, transparent transactions
⚔️ Combat protection
- Configurable combat tag (default 15s)
- Tagged players can't enter regions they aren't members of
- Anti combat-log: dying on rejoin

🔒 Per-Flag Permissions
Every region flag is gated by a Bukkit permission node, letting you monetize features or restrict them to staff. Players without a flag's permission see a red-dye "Locked" placeholder instead of the flag icon - perfect for donor ranks.

🔐 Why DG Claims over [other plugin]?
- One block = one claim. No
/claimcorner-selection nonsense. - Real flag enforcement. Every flag in the GUI actually does what it says (most claim plugins ship 60% decorative flags).
- Premium GUI. Adventure components, MiniMessage colors, gradients - feels native to modern Minecraft.
- Built for selling claims. Marketplace + inspection mode are core features, not afterthoughts.
- Translations as a first-class citizen. Not a half-translated mod with hardcoded English strings.
