Islands¶
Your island is your personal floating base in the sky. This guide covers everything about creating, managing, and upgrading your island.
Creating Your Island¶
When you first join the server, use /island (or /is) to create your island. You can choose between two modes:
- Normal Mode: Standard survival experience with full starter items
- Hardcore Mode: Challenge mode with limited starter items and permanent island loss on death
Mode Selection
Server admins can configure which modes are available. Some servers may only offer one mode.
