Give an EssentialsX rank a fixed home limit
Applies to: EssentialsX; match the linked maintainer documentation to your installed platform and release.
Documentation checked .
Home allowances combine configuration and permissions. Define a small named allowance, then test its limit with an ordinary player before assigning it to a real rank.
Follow the procedure
- Record the intended home count and the affected rank. Check whether another homes plugin also handles the same commands before editing EssentialsX.
- Open the generated EssentialsX configuration and find the multiple-home allowance section. Preserve its indentation and add or adjust one named allowance using the installed release’s comments.
- Grant the relevant role
essentials.sethome.multipleand its matching named allowance permission. Do not grant the unlimited-home node to make the test pass. - Check the test player’s inherited permissions for another allowance or an unlimited bypass. Keep the player’s existing home files intact throughout the trial.
- Using a disposable test account, create named homes until it reaches the intended count. Try one additional home and confirm the server refuses it.
- Raise the real rank’s allowance after the trial. When reducing an allowance, tell existing players how surplus homes will behave rather than deleting their saved homes.
Check the result
The role should create the configured number of homes and receive a clear denial at the next attempt. Verify teleporting to existing homes too. Test a member of another rank to confirm that the named allowance changed only the intended role and did not alter the default player limit.
If the result is wrong
If the player exceeds the limit, inspect inherited unlimited or higher-limit permissions and command ownership. If no additional homes are allowed, check the base multiple-home permission and spelling of the allowance name. Revert the configuration entry and its matching grant together; leave saved home data untouched.
