SplitCraft is a community survival SMP that leans into high-stakes play without being pay-to-win. The server offers an opt-in hardcore system alongside a standard survival world, nightly PvP windows, and a claim-based protection economy. Atmosphere is competitive but community-driven, suitable for players who enjoy risk, persistence, and structured progression.

🎮 Gameplay

Gameplay centers on survival with persistent world systems and measured PvP. Players can build and protect small land plots, participate in periodic End resets to refresh late-game rewards, and opt into one-life hardcore tiers for a true-permadeath challenge. The server balances long daytime cycles with real nights and predictable PvP windows to encourage exploration while reserving conflict for set hours.

⚔️ Game Modes

🪓 Survival

A persistent survival world with land-claim mechanics and an in-game shop economy. Protection is handled in fixed-size plots so players can safely build without large-scale territory systems.

☠️ Hardcore (opt-in)

Three opt-in hardcore tiers (HARD, INSANE, CUSTOM) are available. Death in hardcore is a full wipe for that run; survivors receive server-shop discounts and placement on a memorial board.

✨ Features

Player land protection via a claim system (15×15 plots; timed durations and limits are enforced).
Opt-in hardcore runs with multiple difficulty tiers and full-wipe death.
Nightly PvP windows (PvP turns on at sundown in survival).
Monthly End wipes/resets to cycle end-game loot and encourage timed raids.
Java and Bedrock crossplay supported.
Vote rewards and a basic server shop economy; VIP offers convenience perks and claim discounts (server states "never P2W").

💰 Economy and Progression

The server uses a simple economy with a server shop and vote-based rewards. Voting grants in-game currency and vote tokens. VIP subscribers receive claim discounts and other quality-of-life benefits, but purchasable perks are presented as non-pay-to-win.

🛡️ Community and Rules

SplitCraft maintains published rules and an active Discord for moderation, updates, and community discussion. The server emphasizes fair play and structured systems (claims, timed End resets, and dedicated hardcore runs).

🧭 Who Should Play Here

Players who enjoy survival with higher stakes (hardcore runs, memorials for survivors).
Builders who want small, secure claim plots rather than large nation systems.
PvP players looking for scheduled PvP windows instead of constant PvP.
Players who want crossplay between Java and Bedrock.

🔌 Connection Notes

The server supports both Java and Bedrock editions (Java↔Bedrock crossplay). Additional connection details, ports, and platform-specific instructions are provided on the server website and Discord.

Command	Description

🤙 Friend Tip

If you plan to participate in hardcore runs, move valuable loot out of the run before attempting high-risk activities—End wipes happen monthly and hardcore death wipes runs entirely.
