Raid Core

Place a Core to claim your base

The Core is a block that protects everything around it — as long as you keep feeding it iron.

Base Core 8× Iron Ingot + 1× Netherite Ingot + 1× Furnace

Place it. Wherever you put it, you're the owner — no one else can claim inside its range.
Feed it iron. Right-click to open its 9-slot inventory and drop in iron ingots — any slot works.
Watch it charge. The front panel fills with a glowing bar as it counts toward its next burn. A light on top blinks green once it's active.
Keep it fed. If it runs dry, the charge bar empties and protection pauses until you refuel it.

Burns 16 ingots every 72,000 ticks (~1 hour) Protects a 3×3 chunk area centered on the Core

If a raider is inside your claim with an active EMP, the top light switches from its slow green blink to three quick red flashes, then a pause — a raid alert you can spot from a distance.

Add allies from the Core's menu

Owners can share access with friends — no one else gets a say.

Right-click the Core to open it. Online players appear in a list on the right.
Click a name to make them an ally — it turns green once it's confirmed.
Click a green name again to remove them.
Only the owner sees this working — allies can use the base, but can't manage the list themselves.

What an active Core actually protects

While fueled, the claim locks down blocks and non-hostile mobs for everyone but the owner and allies.

Inside the zone	Owner / ally	Anyone else
Place / break blocks	Allowed	Blocked
Open doors, levers, containers	Allowed	Blocked
Attack tamed animals & villagers	Allowed	Blocked
Break a chest	Allowed	Blocked — even with an EMP

Get close to the edge and you'll see a faint line of particles tracing the boundary — that's the only visible sign a claim is there.

Build an EMP to raid someone else's base

A handheld device that lets you punch through another Core's protection — within limits.

EMP 4× Iron Ingot + 2× Redstone + 1× Netherite Ingot · shapeless, any arrangement

Hold it and right-click on nothing (open air) to switch on raid mode.
Walk into a claim. While raid mode is on, you can place, break, and interact with blocks there — same as the owner can.
Chests still say no. Raid mode doesn't open them — that needs a Picklock (below).
Watch your charge. It drains while raid mode is on and turns itself off at zero.

100 max charge Drains to 0 in 5 min of active use Refills only on a Charging Stand

Recharge and customize it on a Charging Stand

A small dock that holds one EMP at a time — everything here is a direct right-click, no menu.

Charging Stand 8× Iron Ingot + 1× Redstone

Right-click the stand while holding…	What happens
An EMP	Docks it — you'll see the actual device sitting on top.
Nothing (empty hand)	Undocks it back into your inventory.
Any dye	Recolors the docked EMP's body.
A Picklock	Consumes it, adds 1 picklock charge to the EMP.

A full recharge (0→100) takes 1 hour docked Also gives the docked EMP a gentle float, and a glisten once full

Craft Picklocks to get into chests

The one thing raid mode can't do on its own — this finishes the job.

Picklock 1× Diamond + 2× Gold Ingot + 3× Redstone · shapeless

Load one or more onto your EMP at a Charging Stand (see above).
Right-click a protected chest — if the EMP has a charge loaded, it opens and you loot it.
Each open costs 1 picklock charge. The chest stays intact — you're unlocking it, not breaking it.
Works whether or not raid mode is currently switched on.
