Create a Lands subarea with a deliberate height boundary

Applies to: Lands; match the linked maintainer documentation to your installed platform and release.
Documentation checked .

A room-sized subarea is different from a normal chunk claim. Define its vertical range deliberately so a tenant’s access does not extend into storage above or below the room.

Before you start

Lands separates land membership, areas and role flags. Select the intended land before editing it, and verify with an ordinary player rather than an administrative bypass. Use the documentation matching your release when menus or permission settings differ.

Work through the check

  1. Stand in the intended land and use the current release’s /lands edit here control, then record the existing area list and room corners.
  2. Use /lands selection and select the two corners, including the intended floor and ceiling heights. Do not expand to full height unless that is the policy you need.
  3. Assign the selection through /lands area <area> assign, replacing the placeholder with a new distinctive area name, and inspect the area in the menu.
  4. Trust a normal test player in that area only, then test the intended interaction inside the room and just above, below and outside its measured boundary.

Confirm the result

The test player should receive only the area’s intended access within the selected bounds. Adjacent rooms and floors should retain their original role rules.

If the result differs

Older releases use different command targeting. If the selection affects another land, stop and verify the edit land and area name; existing area names can cause assignment to reshape an area rather than create a separate one.

Recover safely

Restore the recorded original bounds if an existing area was reshaped. Remove only the temporary area membership after testing; do not unclaim the surrounding chunks or delete the land.
