Claiming on FTB Revelations
On FTB Revelations, the protected plots of land where players build are called "claims". A claim is a predefined area in the world, assigned to a player, that is protected from breaking/placing of blocks by other players or by the environment.
FTBUtilities Claiming & Chunkloading Map
To get started with claiming your own piece of land, open your inventory (keybound to E by default) and click this icon in the top-left corner of your screen: . A map of your surrounding shall open.
On this map, simply click on the chunks that you want to claim for yourself.
In order to chunkload your claimed chunks, shift-click the area that you want to be chunkloaded. The blue border that your claimed chunks have will turn red, signaling that you have started chunkloading that specific chunk. Keep in mind that you can only keep loaded the chunks that you claim.
To learn more about chunkloading, please visit the official wiki page of FTBUtilities.
Trusting other players
You may at some point decide that you want to allow other players to access your claims. You can do this by adding a player to your team. To do this, click on the + button in your inventory. Here, you can use the FTBUtilities interface to add someone to your team. You can then set whether members of your team have access to building, accessing containers such as chests, or using devices such as levers.
Video
Some players may prefer to learn land claiming from a video. As such, here is a video to show how claiming works. Pleas be aware, however, that this video is not specific to MMCC and some minor details may be different.

Claiming on Sevtech: Ages
Things are a little bit different on the Sevtech:Ages server.
Bring up the in-game chunk border view by pressing F9 on your keyboard. Stand in the chunk(s) you wish to claim, bring up your chat and type the following command: /chunks claim
.
In order to keep your chunks loaded, do the same thing, but this time use the following command: /chunks load
.
In order to undo claiming/loading, you can simply type: /chunks unclaim
and /chunks unload
, respectively.
Why is it different on Sevtech:Ages?
The Sevtech:Ages modpack is unfortunately not compatible with the newer versions of Minecraft Forge that FTBUtils requires in order to run.
However, through lots of testing by our staff, we found a way to make it work. Please do not attempt to install FTBUtils on your client, because it will crash your game upon launch or at random while playing.
