Player Flags

Player flags control what non-members can do inside your region. Members and owners bypass these restrictions, so the table below is about protecting your land from strangers and visitors. Separate per-member flags let owners fine-tune what each trusted player may do.

The defaults shown here match flags.yml. Flags marked Allow (such as passthrough, pickup-items, and elytra) keep the region open to foot traffic by default, while anything that could disturb builds or inventories defaults to Deny. Each region can override these values independently.

The Bit column is the flag's individual bitwise value; use the Homestead Flags Calculator when you need a combined value.

Changing Player Flags

  • Global (non-members): /hs flags global [flag] [allow/deny]
  • Per member: /hs flags member [player] [flag] [allow/deny]
  • Defaults for new regions: edit default-players-flags in flags.yml

See Flags Overview for the full workflow, and Disabled Flags to lock a flag so nobody can change it.
