Biomes

How to configure and manage plot biome customization.

Overview

Plot owners (and members with the CHANGE_BIOME permission) can change their plot’s biome through the Dashboard GUI. Each biome has a configurable price and a cooldown between changes.

Changing Biomes

  1. Open the plot Dashboard (/plot panel)
  2. Click the biome management option
  3. Select a biome from the available list
  4. The cost is deducted and the biome is applied to the plot territory

Administrators can also set biomes directly:

/plotsadmin setbiome <plotid> <biome>
