Arcadia Guard FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I get the wand to start protecting my area?
Type `/give @s arcadiaguard:zone_editor` in chat to receive the selection wand. Once you have it, left-click one corner of your area and right-click the opposite corner to mark your safe zone.
Can I protect my base without using commands?
Yes, after selecting your area with the wand, open the mod menu by typing `/arcadiaguard gui` to create and configure your zone entirely through the visual interface without needing to remember command syntax.
What happens if someone tries to break blocks in my safe zone?
The mod blocks the action and logs it in your zone's record, showing the player's name and what they attempted to do. You can review this log anytime to see who violated your rules.
Can I have a private room inside a larger protected area?
Yes, you can create smaller safe zones nested inside bigger ones, allowing you to set up a private room with stricter rules inside a public castle or shared space.
How do I stop players from using specific items like TNT or spawn eggs?
Use the command `/arcadiaguard item block ` to prevent that item from being used in your safe zones, or configure item restrictions through the mod menu for individual zones.
Does this mod stop magic spells from other mods?
Yes, Arcadia Guard blocks spells and abilities from Iron's Spells 'n Spellbooks, Ars Nouveau, Simply Swords, Occultism, and Supplementaries when those mods are installed alongside it.
Will monsters spawn inside my safe zone?
No, the mod prevents monster spawning inside protected areas by default, and players also cannot take damage from mobs or other sources within your safe zone.
Can I change the rules for a zone after I create it?
Yes, use `/arcadiaguard flag set ` to modify individual rules, or open the mod menu to adjust multiple settings at once from the visual interface.
How do I see all the different rules I can set for a zone?
Type `/arcadiaguard flag list` to view all available rules you can configure, or browse them directly in the mod menu where you can enable or disable over 60 different protections.
What should I do if the glowing box around my zone doesn't appear?
Make sure you're holding the 
zone editor wand and have properly left-clicked your first corner and right-clicked your second corner; the 3D glowing box should display once both corners are set correctly.
