Commands and permissions

This page lists the commands available to players and administrators.

Player commands​

Open the decoration menu​

/graves

Also works with:

/graves decoration
/graves decorations
/graves menu

This opens the menu where a player can see or change their selected grave decoration.

Show command help​

/graves help

Shows the main command help message. You can edit the text in messages.yml.

Open active gravestones​

/graves history

Also works with:

/graves list
/graves graves

This opens the Active Gravestones GUI for the player.

The history GUI shows the player's current graves, including location, creation time, remaining decay time, lock time, and stored item count.

Depending on permissions, the same menu can also let staff or trusted players open a grave from a distance or teleport to it.

Teleport to the graveyard​

/graves graveyard tp

Teleports the player to the configured graveyard.

If no graveyard is set, the plugin sends the graveyard.graveyard_not_set message and does not teleport the player.

Admin commands​

Set the graveyard at your current location​

/graves graveyard set

This saves your current world, position, yaw, and pitch as the server graveyard.

After this command is used, the graveyard is enabled in config.yml.

Set the graveyard with coordinates​

Use the current player's world:

/graves graveyard set <x> <y> <z>
/graves graveyard set <x> <y> <z> <yaw> <pitch>

Use a specific world:

/graves graveyard set <world> <x> <y> <z>
/graves graveyard set <world> <x> <y> <z> <yaw> <pitch>

Examples:

/graves graveyard set
/graves graveyard set world 100 65 -40
/graves graveyard set world 100 65 -40 180 0

Teleport to a player's grave​

/gravesadmin teleport <player> [index]

This teleports the target player to one of their graves.

  • index is optional.
  • 0 means the newest grave.
  • 1 means the previous grave, and so on.

Example:

/gravesadmin teleport Steve 0

Tab completion​

The /graves command includes tab completion for:

  • decoration
  • history
  • graveyard
  • help
  • set
  • tp
  • world names
  • suggested coordinates based on the player's current location

The admin teleport command suggests online player names.
