## [Map](https://www.midnightvalley.net/survival/map/)

The map is built and served using [Dynmap](https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/dynmap%C2%AE.274/)! It is a flat map only to save resources, however it will show you where players are, and each world is included (Overworld, Nether, The End.)

## Commands

=== "Chat"
    === "Public"
        By default, every player is on the **global** channel. This means that public messages sent in any server will be visible on all other servers in network.

        - Use `/channel {global | local | helpop}` to change which channel you are chatting in. `/c` Also works.
            - Global: Your message will be visible to every server.
            - Local: Your message will only be visible to the server that you are currently on.
                - `/l <message>` or `/local <message>` Will send one message instead of changing your channel.
            - Information regarding **helpop** is in the HelpOP tab above.
    === "HelpOP"
        Need help but don't want to chat in public?

        - Use `/channel helpop` or `/helpop` to switch to the HelpOP channel. **Only moderators and administrators can see this chat.
        - Use `/helpop <message>` if you only need/want to send one message without switching channels.

    === "Private"
        Want to tell your friend something in private? No problem!

        - Use `/msg <player> <message>` to shoot them a message.
            - If you received a private message, you can use `/r` or `/reply` to reply quickly!
        - These commands are the same as `/msg`.
            - `/m`
            - `/tell`
            - `/whisper`
            - `/w`
            - `/pm`

        !!! Info
            [Vanilla Tweaks](https://vanillatweaks.net/) are provided by the folks that run HermitCraft. They do not require any client side or server side mods and rely only on Vanilla datapacks to function.

=== "Mods"

    !!! Note
        These mods are not necessary to join the server and are only here to improve your experience.

    This server uses the [Simple Voice Chat](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/simple-voice-chat) mod to allow on-server proximity based voice chat.
    To use the mod, you will need [Fabric](https://fabricmc.net/), [Forge](https://files.minecraftforge.net/net/minecraftforge/forge/) or [Quilt](https://quiltmc.org/en/). You are on your own for how to set this up, but I think it is fairly straight forward.
