  • Server Information

    A Java/Bedrock cross-platform server network with land claiming, community, and more.

    Java/Bedrock IP: mc.kdgaming.net

    Port: Default (Java 25565 / Bedrock 19132)

    [Bedrock only] Click here to instantly add to the server list.

    Server version: Java 1.21.8

    Supported client versions: Java 1.21 - 1.21.11 / Bedrock 1.21 - 1.21.131 (as of December 22, 2025)

    Use /teleport at any time to teleport between servers and configure server settings.


    Cross-Platform Information and Account Linking

    The server runs on the Java Edition platform. This means that all players on Bedrock will have most Java items, recipes, and mechanics such as combat cooldown, Java mob spawning, redstone, etc.

    If you own both Java and Bedrock, it is recommended you link your accounts to share progress between them. To link your Java/Bedrock accounts, visit the account linking site at https://link.geysermc.org. Linking your accounts allows you to play with the same account on both Java and Bedrock. Note: After linking accounts, any existing data on your Bedrock account such as claimed land, pets, progress, Ender Chests and other player data will not migrate to the linked account. While your accounts are linked, your Bedrock player data will be inaccessible. Ensure you migrate all your stuff to your Java account first!

    Bedrock players (who don’t have a linked Java account) will have an '.' before their gamertag.

    When joining the server on Bedrock, the client will prompt you to install some resource packs for Java parity.

    The server runs as a multi-server network setup. By default, chat communication is global, spanning across the server network. To switch to local chat, open the Settings panel within /teleport, or type /join local, and type /join global to switch back.

    Globally, use the /teleport command to teleport between servers as well as configure server settings.


    Joining on Consoles

    Server Map & Land Claiming

    The server map can be found at https://www.kdgaming.net/map.

    To protect your builds, you must claim land using the Lands system. Players can claim multiple areas, manage permissions, and collaborate with other players. Claimed areas must be reasonably sized and bordered to achieve the purpose of protecting your land and property (for example, you may not claim a 512x512 block area for a small house with no intention of utilizing the entire claimed area). Furthermore, claiming public areas/structures of interest require approval from server administration, including, but not limited to, End Gateways. Claims may be removed at any time, without warning, if found non-compliant or present a conflict of interest. Abusing this land claim system may result in a ban or loss of access to land claiming.

    Creating a Land
    To begin claiming:
     1. Stand in the chunk you want to claim.
     2. Run /lands create [name] to create your first land.
     3. Use /lands claim to claim the current chunk, or /lands claim [radius] to claim a group of chunks around you (i.e. /lands claim 1 will claim a total of 9 chunks in a 3x3 square around you.)

    Use the GUI with /lands to create and manage your land visually.

    Selecting a Custom Area
    You can also use selection mode for more precise land claiming:
     1. /lands selection – Start selection mode.
     2. Left-click + Right-click two corners while holding a wooden shovel (or use /lands selection expand for full height).
     3. /lands claim - Claim the selected region

    Expanding and Unclaiming
     /lands claim [radius] – Expands your land.
     /lands unclaim – Removes the current chunk from your land.
     /lands unclaim radius – Unclaim multiple chunks at once.
     /lands delete – Delete the land entirely (must stand in it or specify its name).

    Trust and Permissions
     /lands trust [player] – Allow a player to build/interact in your land.
     /lands untrust [player] – Revoke permissions.
     /lands setrole [player] [area] [role] – Assign a custom role.
     /lands ban [player] – Ban a player from entering.
     /lands assign [area] - Create or edit sub-areas of your land.
     /lands view – Toggle visual borders of your claim.

    Use /lands for in-depth customization of roles, flags, and permissions.

    Navigation and Teleportation
     /lands spawn – Teleport to your land's spawn point.
     /lands setspawn – Set a land spawn.
     /lands wild – Teleport to a random location. This can only be done once every 60 seconds.
     /lands unstuck – Escape if trapped in a claim.

    Playtime Rewards and Limitations
    Players earn claiming power by staying active, up to certain limitations:
     Chunk Claims: Players start off with 9 claimable chunks per land, earning +1 claimable chunk per land every 30 minutes, earning up to 256 claimable chunks per land.
     Land Joining: Players can initially join up to 2 lands, earning +1 land join slot every 12 hours, earning up to 16 land joins.
     Land Ownership: Players can initially create 1 land, earning +1 land ownership slot every 24 hours, earning up to 8 land ownerships.
     Memberships: Each land can initially have up to 8 members, earning +1 member slot every 6 hours, earning up to 32 member slots.
     Support Chunks: For lands that the player is a member of, the player can initially contribute up to 4 support chunks, earning +1 support chunk every 60 minutes, earning up to 128 support chunks.
     Camps (Temporary Claims): Players can create up to 1 camp or temporary claim. These expire after 1 day.

    Inactivity
    Lands expire based on the amount of time the owner has been offline and how much time they have spent online. For example, players who have longer playtime will take longer for their lands to expire. See the table below:

    Total Playtime Lands Expire After (Offline Time)
    Less than 15 minutes 7 days
    15 – 30 minutes 14 days
    30 minutes – 12 hours 30 days
    12 hours – 1 day 60 days
    1 – 30 days 120 days
    Over 30 days 365 days

    If the land expires due to inactivity, the highest-ranking land member will automatically be promoted to owner, before deleting the land if no members remain for succession.

    Commands:
            - /tpa [player] - Request to teleport to another player
            - /tpahere [player] - Request another player to teleport to you
            - /tpblock [player] - Blocks teleport requests from another player

            - /back - Teleports you to your last location
            - /wild - Teleports you to a random location in the world

    Player Trading

    The server has a trading system plugin enabled.

    Commands:
            - /trade [player] - Initiate a trade request with specified player.
            - /trade accept - Accept trade request from a player
            - /trade deny - Deny trade request from a player
            - /trade toggle - Enable/disable receiving trade requests

    You can also shift + right-click a player to trade with them, if possible. You can also use this to give items to other players from a distance; you do not have to be nearby. Both traders do not need to add an item; useful if the person is giving away their items. While in the trading GUI, place the items you’ll be giving to the other player on the left side, then click the red block to continue. Both players must accept for the trade to complete. You can also send them money by clicking on the gold nugget and entering the amount you want to send.
