Teams

Teams are a major feature of Build A Boat For Treasure, allowing players to cooperatively build and launch boats together. If the Share Mode setting is enabled, players may pool together their blocks to create even bigger boats. 
There are currently 7 teams. Upon joining the game, players are placed into the first empty team in this order: white, blue, green, red, black, yellow, magenta.
Each team has a team leader, indicated by the crown to the left of their name in the leaderboard. Their name is also listed above other players in their team. The first person to join an empty team is automatically promoted to team leader. If the team leader leaves, the rank is passed down to another team member. Only team leaders may alter team-related Settings, such Share Mode, Block Join Requests, and Isolation Mode. They are also solely responsible for receiving and deciding on requests from other players to join their team.
Players who request to switch to an empty team will automatically be approved.
== Advantages ==
* Players can work together and share resources, helping build a boat that will get them to the treasure.
* Players can also paint and delete other team members' blocks with the new share mode.
== Disadvantages ==
* Large groups may get enough votes to Launch, despite some players still building.
* Before an update of the game, leaving a team would result in the boat launching. Thankfully, this has since been fixed. However, leaving the game entirely will still launch the boat.

|-|White = 
White Team is one of the teams in team in Build A Boat For Treasure. While the White Team has a huge advantage because all boats launched will go straight, there are some exceptions like the Cannon Tower Terrain. The towers are placed in the middle of the obstacle, thus the ship will suffer great damage if it touches the towers. 
This is the most popular team in the game because it is the first team the player is assigned to when joining a new server or a game without anyone on the white team. This is also the most experimented team because this is where the players test "Wheel Boats" or any other boats that need to travel straight (such as boats with thrusters). 
The White team also has a huge advantage when it comes to grinding. The "bridges" that most players build are very effective, because it travels directly through the Black Walls, which the player can benefit from, obtaining more gold than average grinding methods from the other teams. 
|-|Blue = 
Blue Team is one of the teams in Build A Boat For Treasure. It is the 2nd team a player will get sent to if White team is taken upon joining.
It was originally the smallest building plot in the game, similar to the Green team, making it impractical to load large boats. When the game was in the early stages of development, this team would be joined automatically by the 8th player in the server.
|-|Green = 
Green Team is one of the teams in Build A Boat For Treasure. This is the third team that the player joins automatically if Blue and White team are occupied.
Just like Blue team, it was smaller than all of the teams except for blue. 
|-|Red =
Red Team is one of the teams in Build A Boat For Treasure. This team had the largest baseplate in the game (119 blocks wide and 150 blocks long), but it was shortened to 118 like the rest of the teams.
|-|Black = 
Black Team is of the teams in Build a Boat for Treasure. It is located opposite to Red Team and next to the White Team, This is the only team that had issues with Isolation Mode, but it was fixed during the fall update.
During Halloween 2018, Black team was the only team able to do the Skeleton Boss Quest for Halloween-exclusive items.
|-|Yellow = 
Yellow Team is one of the teams in Build A Boat For Treasure. It is opposite of Magenta team, being a team that usually saves time considering how near it is to the Stage Entrance. This team can also be used to farm gold without a boat by simply running as far as the player can down the stream and dying over and over again, though this is not recommended as it is rather slow.
|-|Magenta = 
Magenta Team is one of the teams in Build A Boat For Treasure. Along with Yellow team, its proximity to the Stage Entrance is often exploited to save time after launching boats. It was added in the 2017 Christmas Event, replacing the Orange team.
Prior to the 2020 Easter Update, he Magenta team spawn was home to the first Old Secret Treasure, found by clicking a branch on one of the trees.
|-|Orange = 
Orange Team was one of the teams that was removed in Build A Boat For Treasure. It was replaced by Magenta Team in the 2017 Christmas Event. The orange flag and team spawn points have been removed from the game with the removal of the team. However, the flag can still be seen in the GUI of the game.
A memorial for the Orange Team could have been found within the Magenta Team spawn prior to the 4/6/2020 update.
