Resource World
A large wild world for gathering, with PvP on and no keep inventory, reset every month.
The resource world is a large, untouched world kept separate from the Box world so players can mine, chop and explore without spoiling their own Box. It has an Overworld, a Nether and an End. Unlike the rest of Blockville, PvP is on and items are dropped on death. The whole world is replaced with a fresh one every month.
| Command | /rtp (also /wild or /randomteleport) |
| Dimensions | Overworld, Nether and End |
| World border | 10,000 blocks (Overworld), 1,250 blocks (Nether) |
| PvP | On |
| Keep inventory | Off - items go into a death box |
| Combat tag | 20 seconds |
| Reset | Monthly, closing the last Thursday and reopening the Saturday after |
#Getting there
/rtp opens the random teleport menu, which has two choices: The Overworld and The Nether. Choosing one teleports the player to a random safe spot in that dimension of the resource world. The End is reached through its portal, as in normal Minecraft.
Homes can be set in the resource world as usual. A home left over from a previous month's world sends the player to a new random spot instead.
#Danger
When a player arrives in the resource world, a warning shows that PvP is on and keep inventory is off.
#Death boxes
A player who dies in the resource world drops nothing on the ground. Instead their items go into a death box where they fell. Anyone can open a death box and take what is inside, and it disappears after 10 minutes.
#Combat tag
Hitting or being hit by another player starts a 20 second combat tag. While tagged, a player can only use messaging commands (/msg, /tell, /w, /r and /reply), so they cannot teleport away. Logging out while combat-tagged kills the player.
#Monthly reset
The resource world is replaced every month:
| When | What happens |
|---|---|
| 7 days, 1 day, 1 hour and 5 minutes before | A warning is announced in chat. |
| Last Thursday of the month, 23:59 (US Eastern) | The resource world closes and everyone in it is sent away. |
| The Saturday after, 14:00 (US Eastern) | A brand-new resource world opens. |
Everything in the old world is gone after the reset, including builds, chests and anything left in it. The End is reset at the same time, so every month brings a new dragon fight and a new dragon egg.
