Getting Started

# **Welcome to Naval Battlezone: High Caliber!**

## What We Are

We are Minecraft community which uses a modified code which allows us to use real vehicles in Minecraft!

This special code / Java spigot is called, Navycraft: Reloaded. Its new code based on old Movecraft version, which allows large buildings to become essentially large vehicles and behave like other real life ones from ships, planes, submarines and so-forth.

This was not possible if weren't for our founder, Maximuspayne! Our Fleet Admiral!

## Getting On

The server currently using 1.9.3 Java version of Minecraft.

Remember to enable the Server's Resource Pack. There will be a delay when loading up the pack once you login.

## Places and Things on the Server

The server is currently divided into three worlds which will be explained following sections; Hub, SeaTrials, Northern Seas, and APG.

## Steps of Getting Started

* Logging in
When you login, you will be brought to the Dockyard. This is our building area our Spawn world.

* Get Trained!
To begin your learning how the basic functions of the server, do **/training**. This will transport you to a NPC lead training course, where you can interact parts of a ship to learn how it works. Talk to the NPC, they will tell you what you need to learn for the basics!

* To the Dockyard
So once your finished training, if you haven't done so already. You should type **/Hub** where you will transported back to main spawn world, The hub. Next Step is get going with building a ship or submarine. However, you need know what's made out of! Type **/warp FortAtlantis,** this will transport you to the server Example Area/Artifact area where you can walk through a display area example of parts you need build a ship. This wiki has also instructions on how build a ship/submarine/etc as well. Once done there, you should open a plot of your own. To directly access the dockyard, do **/warp dockyard.** See Getting Started - Dockyard for more details.

## **Major Areas of Interest on the Server**

Areas can be reach by type name in to chat. /hub /seatrials / Northern Seas /APG etc. See below for more details.

### Hub / Dockyard

The Hub is the Main Spawn World/Server, where you the player will first login. Here, you will find the Dockyard when you initially login. Within the space of the area, you are able to fly and go into minecraft /gm 1 (creative). It contains the Atlantis City (Social Area), Dockyard (ship building area), Launch Dock (Launch newly commissions with ceremonies), and Fort Atlantis (The Training area for new Recruits, like YOU.) Movement in this are can be done by typing in /warps see what place you can travel or click on the warp signs per area in the bus or train station.

This world is being changed for a larger Spawn / Dockyard with additional plots to build.

### **SeaTrials**

This is where Ships and Submarines are tested and can be pitted against AI ships. However, the ships and submarines cost a fee to use in Seatrials once a vessel travels beyond the Safe Docks areas. This is also a area where player may pit each other against other players. A form economy resides here.

Fundamental

Vehicle Testing
Any ship can be spawned to be tested for free, like all ships you LEAVE Safedocks you will be charged a fee using the ship.
Ship Costs
As it was says ships cost money to use in Seatrials. This is NOT the full cost of the ship however, but a "rental" fee of using it.
Making Money
Use of a ship costs money. Getting Started, you will need to fight another ship. Smallest ship in the game, the PT (Patrol Boat), are free are used to get started generating cash. When a ship is sunk, you gain points and money for the sinking. You can use your own ship or you can use the starter PT Boat. All ships with Ship signs of PT are free.
AI Combatants
You ship has a AI crew and the enemy ship will crew which will attack you once your in range. While playing against another player results in reward depending on how large vessel, a player may click on a sign of their choice to fight. Currently, a player may fight up to a cruiser size ship. However, there is a cost to fight this ship. Essentially, you pay to get bigger reward...if you win. However, AI ship if you fail to sink it will remain at sea for period time. Thus spawning another ship to fight it you have chance of winning.
Economics of scale
Larger the ship sunk, larger the reward. Ships with the killing shots will get the reward and points.
Fueling and Repairs at Sea
If a player chooses continue to fight in Sea Trials, there is series of barges which are placed in ocean. A ship / submarine wishing to be refueled and repair can dock with one these barges. They cannot be sunk, but the submarine / ship must come along side and have a player click the repair sign to get vessel fixed.
* Note: The Nav Sign does not function properly here, where only ocean can be seen on it. Northern Seas is different areas which is part of this world but impossible to travel there from Seatrials.

### Atlantic Play Grounds

This is the original world where, events and missions take place. Atlantic Play Grounds (APG) has spawning docks, where ships may spawn from, there the world is open to adventure and danger. At this time it is restricted to special events and missions setup by the command staff of server. Separate area in this world is the **Deep Depths**, which is separate world, where oceans are DEEPER than they are in all of the other High Caliber areas. From here, Submarines may truly show off their abilities and dive deeper than they can in other places.

### Northernseas

The northern seas is main event world and factions (when implemented). These are series of islands, which have two planned Harbors for pre-made Blue & Red Teams. Ships are loaded by administrators or Event Coordinators. Some of these islands have gun emplacements, warehouses, ammo bunkers, dock facilities (for fuel and charge services.)

### Training Grounds

This world is where you can learn how play.

To access do /training while in the Hub World.
