Building

Build mode, what it guarantees, and what nobody can do to you.

What Build mode guarantees

Build is not a zone or a place on the map: it is a state that follows you everywhere. You can build anywhere on the map.

  • You cannot be hurt, by anyone or anything.
  • You cannot hurt others — your props pass through them.
  • NPCs ignore you completely.
  • A prop held with the physgun by a PvP player passes through you: they cannot push or trap you.
  • No fall damage.

Entering and leaving

Type !build or press C then the Build / PvP button to enter, !pvp or the same button to leave. Leaving is instant; entering takes a few seconds, and becomes impossible for 20 seconds after a gunfight.

That is the only constraint: Build is not an escape from a fight you started.

Your builds

Your props belong only to you. Nobody else can grab them with the physgun, unfreeze, weld, delete them or use the properties menu. Admins neither, without their moderation tools, which leave a log.

If you get stuck in a prop, type !unstuck: the server places you above it without killing you.

What is still forbidden

Build protects you from damage, not from griefing. The rest is rules:

  • No prop spam or builds meant to lag the server.
  • No build blocking a spawn or a required path.
  • No deliberate sound or visual nuisance.
  • If there is a problem: Tab, click the player, “Report”. Staff get it in-game and on Discord.
