    ChestShop Guide

    In Minecraft,

    ChestShop Guide
    This guide will show you how to set up your own shop.
     
     
    Create a ChestShop with Buy & Sell
    If I want to sell 64 (1 stack) of cobblestones for $64 and buy them for $32 then I'll create a sign in front or top or bottom of the chest that would contain the cobblestone items to follow the format:

     
    so to sell 64 cobblestones for $64 and buying them for $32, I would do this:

     
    You can also replace Cobblestone with ? and it will auto-fill for you based on what's inside the chest. Your chest must include something for this to happen or it will not update the sign.

     
     
     
    Create a ChestShop with ONLY Buy or Sell
    To sell 64 cobblestones for $64 with no options for players to sell them to you, do this:

    As you notice the : 32 S part is missing. That's how you only enable the buy part. You can do the same for sell only by just displaying 32 S instead.
     
    Here's some examples of how you can link up the sign to the chest in different ways:

    Auto-Lock
    Chests/Furnaces/etc are auto-lockable in Survival/Creative/Skyblock gamemodes by simply placing down it. For example:

     
     
     
    /lock
    To lock a Chest/Furnace/etc, simply run /lock and right-click on the block you want to apply lock to:

     
     
     
    /unlock
    To unlock a Chest/Furnace/etc you own, simply run /unlock and right-click on the block you want to remove the lock from:

     
     
     
    /cpublic
    To turn your Chest/Furnace/etc to a public-lock for others to access without destroying your block, simply run /cpublic and right-click on block to apply the change to:

     
     
     
    /cmodify <player>
    To give someone access to your Chest/Furnace/etc, simply run /cmodify <player> and right-click on block to apply the change to. For example, if I want to give ilovethem access to my chest, I simply do /cmodify ilovethem and right-click on my chest. Here's a pic to show what it'll look like:

     
    If I want to remove ilovethem from my chest I simply add minus symbol (-) to the left of the player's name: /cmodify -ilovethem and right-click on chest to apply the change. Here's a pic of what it'll look like:

    Webs.com Site Archives

    In History,

    Here, you can find links to very early Webs.com sites that we used to operate.
    From 2013 to 2014, haloman30 (CU's primary owner/maintainer) operated several older sites on another platform that predate the current site and forums. Most of these were more related to Elaztek Studios' origins, but several sites for United AlyCraft and Chaotic United, as well as an early site for HurricaneCraft (then known as HurricaneGaming) - though this wasn't owned by haloman30 but was instead likely run by Jamplifier (HurricaneCraft's founder).
     
    Unlike Elaztek or Chaotic United's modern websites, which are more or less custom built - that is, run on a proper webserver with full control over site content and applications - these older websites were created using Webs (webs.com), which is an easy-to-use site builder service. They offer very limited control over what you can do, but are intended to make it so that those without the knowledge or experience to operate their own webserver were able to create a basic website.
     
    Those websites got very little development and were officially retired once Elaztek Studios was launched. The websites have since only been maintained enough to ensure they continue to exist (in other words, periodically logging into the Webs account to ensure they weren't automatically removed).
     
    However, on November 11, 2020, Webs announced that they would be shutting their doors and migrating all content over to Vistaprint - the parent company of Webs. However, only Premium Webs customers would have their content migrated over. Those who didn't have premium websites were told that their site would no longer be viewable or editable:
     
     
    In order to preserve the old websites (as awful as they are, seeing as they were made by a 13 year old), the websites were mirrored using WinHTTrack and will be hosted on our own webserver going forward. You can find all 6 Webs sites that were previously operated by haloman30 below, though not all of them were related to CU.
     
    Please keep in mind that, again, the quality of the websites are terrible. They were made by a 13 year old and, as such, contain some pretty dumb stuff and weird claims - and have been unaltered from those early iterations. Additionally, keep in mind that these websites are read-only. Several of them used to contain account and forum functionality, but these are dependent on Webs' backend systems - which are not available for these archives. As such, logging in, registering, or any other user content will simply do nothing. Think Wayback Machine.
     
    Enjoy - if you can.

    If I want to remove ilovethem from my chest I simply add minus symbol (-) to the left of the player's name: /cmodify -ilovethem and right-click on chest to apply the change. Here's a pic of what it'll look like:

     

    WorldEdit Guide

    In Minecraft,

    WorldEdit Guide
    This will guide you the basics on how to use WorldEdit commands. There are a tons of commands to manipulate the blocks in Minecraft,
    but that will take me years to develop all of the guides for it so I will only give you the basics and you can figure out the rest.
    Here's a link to a good one to start with: https://minecraft-worldedit.fandom.com/wiki/Worldedit_Commands
     
     
     
    Making Selections (First step before running any WorldEdit commands that require selections) :
    To make a selection, you have two options. You can either use a Wood Axe to make the selections (left click for one point, right click for other point) or run //pos1 & //pos2 to make the selections at your location when you run the command at.
    For example, I want to make the selection to change a square/rectangle area into glowstone so I would use a Wood Axe to make the selections. Doing the left-click with Wood Axe will show the following message:

    and the right-click will show this instead:

    Congrats, now you have made the selections. Continue to the next part where you run a command to make changes to the selection!
     
     
     
    <pattern>
    There are a lot of options that you can apply to pretty much any W/E commands. Since there's quite a bit out there, I will only cover two basic concepts:
    To set one block type, simply use the block type as the pattern. Example: //set glowstone To set a random pattern of two different blocks, simply do: //set 50%glowstone,50%stone This means it will apply 50% glowstone and 50% stone to equal to 100%. Now there has been reports that you don't need to equal it up to 100% so you may have to mess it around to fit your liking.  
     
     
    //set <pattern>
    This will set all of the blocks in a region to whichever pattern you selected. To give an example, I will run the following command:
    //set glowstone
    to turn this:

    into this:

     
     
     
    //replace <from_block> <to_pattern>
    This command will replace the following block(s) into different block(s). Here's an example of how it works:
    Running //replace glowstone stone will turn this:

    into this:

     
     
     
    //walls <pattern>
    This command will generate the walls with the following pattern you provide in the selection you made. Since this was done with only one layer, only one block-height of walls will be shown. However, if you increase one of the selections up a few more blocks, the //walls command will generate the walls at that height specified by the selection.
    Running //walls stone will turn this:

    into this:

     
     
     
    //center <pattern>
    This command will generate the pattern you provide at the center of the 2 selections you made. This is ideal if you're trying to get the center of a region to build something in. If the X/Y coords are even, it will show as 2 blocks in center. If it's in odd value, it'll show as one block instead.
    Running //center iron_block will turn this:

    into this:

     
     
     
    //sphere <pattern> <radius#>
    This command will generate a sphere based on the radius you give at your location.
    Running //sphere glowstone 10 will make this:

     
     
     
    //hsphere <pattern> <radius#>
    This command will generate a hollow sphere based on the radius you give at your location.
    Running //hsphere glowstone 10 will make this (this is me being inside the hollow sphere):

     
     
     
    //cyl <pattern> <radius#> <height#>
    This command will generate a cylinder based on radius and height you give at your location.
    Running //cyl glowstone 5 5 will make this:

     
     
     
    //hcyl <pattern> <radius#> <height#>
    This command will generate a hollow cylinder based on radius and height you give at your location.
    Running //hcyl glowstone 5 5 will make this:
