Sterlcraft

I host a small, casual Minecraft server of sorts ’cause why not. Here you’ll find some various info regarding the server, such as a list of plugins, how to join, and a rudimentary map.

The server runs using Paper, a specialised Minecraft server program which allows server-side plugins to add functionality (and fun!) for the player. No client-side modification required. If you’d like to join, the address is mc.ssterling.net, version 1.15.2 or later. Also, make sure to familiar yourself with the rules before playing (and perhaps the starters guide).

Changes to the server and related infrastructure can be found on the Sterlcraft feed.

Plugins

Instead of complicated things like Factions, Towny or Citizens, Sterlcraft provides a decently Vanilla, “old-school” experience, having not much more than a simple economy, homes and chest locks. If you’re curious about all the plugins, type /plugins in server chat.

• Essentials: Makes the server more like a typical Bukkit/Spigot server. Nicknames, coloured chat, economy and teleportation.
• LWC: Prevents prople from breaking into your humble abode, or stealing diamonds from your chests. Refer to the Modern-LWC wiki for more info.
• ChestShops: Sell items easily and reliably to other players on the server. Just place down a chest, put the appropriate sign on it and you’re set.
• CraftBook: Adds some neat but trivial functionality to the server, such as readable bookshelves, functional chairs, elevators and Minecart messagers.
• WorldEdit: Do hefty operations at the press of a button. Supports copy-paste, block fill-in and terrain generation, amongst several other mass commands. Generally restricted to the ~Artist role and above.
• Some other, more technical plugins…

Ranks

Though mostly a Survival-oriented server, players can gain access to cheats such as flying or teleportation by becoming a trustworthy regular Member. A comprehensive list of what each rank of user can and can’t do is available on the Permissions page.

• ~Owner: Seth.
• ~Admin: Has control over most aspects of the server, including whitelisting and settling disputes. Restricted from world creation/deletion and permissions modification.
• ~Staff: Capable of basic world maintenance, dispute resolution and disciplinary action. This role and above isn’t given out without discretion.
• ~Artist: Has WorldEdit abilities and access to a few extra cheats which help builders and pixel-artists. Show prowess in building and this role may be given to you.
• Member: Has access to some basic cheats, i.e. Creative mode or a command-based workbench. This role is obtained by playing for a decent amount of time and proving trustworthiness on the server.
• Player: Your average Joe.
