Frequently asked questions

Common questions and solutions for Prosperity SMP players.

Connecting

How do I join on Bedrock?

Add the server with address play.prosperitysmp.com and port 19132. See Bedrock setup for detailed instructions.

I was kicked for flying

Bedrock movement packets sometimes trigger anti-fly detection. This is a known issue handled server-side. If it happens repeatedly, report it on Discord.

Economy

How do I earn money?

The primary source is job wages. You can also sell at the Admin shop, set up a ChestShop, or complete civic contracts. See Getting started for a walkthrough.

How do I check what an item is worth?

Run /market <item> to see the median price from recent trades.

How do I create a shop?

See ChestShop for step-by-step instructions.

What is the best way to get rich?

Produce a surplus of something useful and sell it to other players through ChestShops — that is the server's main late-game income driver. Jobs and farms are how you produce goods; the wealth comes from trading that output at scale. Running a farm and sitting on the drops earns far less than turning that output into well-priced shops. See Economy. (Farms must be actively played — AFK auto-farms are against the Server rules.)

Jobs

Can I have multiple jobs?

No. One job at a time. Switch with /jobs leave then /jobs join. There is a 60-second cooldown.

What is prestige?

At level 50, prestige resets your job to level 1 in exchange for permanent bonuses. See Jobs.

What are drills and harvesters?

3x3 AOE tools purchased with /buydrill or /buyharvester, gated by job level.

Land

How do I buy a plot?

See Real estate for plot types and the auction process.

Can I build anywhere?

Only on plots you own or rent. The resource world is for gathering only.

Technical

Is voice chat available?

Yes, through Simple Voice Chat (Java mod required). Bedrock players use Discord voice.

How do I check who griefed me?

Use /co inspect (CoreProtect) and click the affected blocks. Report to staff on Discord.

How do I lock my chests?

BOLT locks them automatically on placement. Use /bolt trust to share access.
