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
- Open the plot Dashboard (
/plot panel) - Click the biome management option
- Select a biome from the available list
- The cost is deducted and the biome is applied to the plot territory
Administrators can also set biomes directly:
/plotsadmin setbiome <plotid> <biome>
