Guide: setting up a territory
A worked example: a PvP-free market zone, a guild-only VIP area layered on top of it, and an evening-only bonus zone.
Step 1: a base zone
Configs/Territories/market.cfg:
[market_square@1]
Circle
0, 0, 60
90, 160, 90, exp: 1.0
NoAttack, PeriodicHeal = 1, NoMonsters
None
A 60-radius circle at the world center, tinted green, with no combat, no monster spawns, and slow passive healing. Priority 1 — the baseline layer everything else stacks on top of.
Step 2: a smaller zone on top
Configs/Territories/market_vip.cfg:
[market_vip_lounge@5]
Square
20, 20, 15
255, 215, 0
PeriodicHealALL = 3, MonstersAddStars = 0
OnlyForGuild = MarketGuild
Priority 5 beats priority 1 — wherever this smaller square overlaps the market zone above, its rules take over instead: stronger healing, and only MarketGuild members may enter. See Territories for the full flag list.
Step 3: an evening-only bonus zone
Put a time-scheduled zone in a specially-named folder — see Scheduling a config to a time window:
Configs/Territories/18-00_23-00/happy_hour.cfg:
[happy_hour_bonus@3]
Circle
0, 0, 60
255, 255, 150
PeriodicHealALL = 5
None
This zone only exists between 18:00 and 23:00 server time — before and after, it is as though this file does not exist. Because its priority (3) sits between the base zone (1) and the VIP lounge (5), during those hours it boosts healing everywhere in the base zone except inside the VIP lounge, where the lounge's own rules still win.
Checking your work in-game
Turn on zone outlines with the zonevisualizer console command (needs admin access) to see the boundaries you just drew directly in the world — much easier than guessing from coordinates alone. Adjust how visible the outlines are with zonevisualizeralpha. See Console commands.
