About "/area show"

Area status: Not claimable

  • Shown when the area can not be claimed
  • Happens (by default) in the underground

Access notation of shared areas:

  • mrturtle: Single shared area with player mrturtle
  • mrturtle*: All areas of the same owner are shared with mrturtle.
  • *all: Wild west area. Everyone has access.

This notation is also valid for the other chat commands, where a <name> placeholder is used.
