Prison Official Guide
Hello and welcome to the Official Snapcraft Prison Guide. Within this guide you will find everything you could ever want to know about Prison. Hopefully this will answer any of your questions. Learn about the variety of awesome features and how to use them to enhance your own gameplay!

What is Prison?
Prison is a gamemode in which players will receive money from mining. You will begin your journey in Mine A and as you earn more money, you can rank up to a higher mine. The higher the mine you go, the more valuable the ores/blocks you will receive - meaning more money. You can do this until you reach the final prestige mine and then continue to flex your level on the rest of the server! There are multiple features and plugins on our Prison Gamemode, continue reading to discover them all.


Getting Started:
Being brand-new on any server is not easy, so here are some top tips on how you can get started, integrate your way into the community and be a part of the winning gangs! Getting started and playing on the best Prison server has never been easier.

The main way to get money throughout your prison experience remains mostly the same, that being mining! You will be given a pickaxe, backpack and a custom made costume when you first join as part of your starter kit All three of these components can be upgraded, and will quickly allow you progress through the mines by ranking up!

Mine the blocks, sell your backpack, earn tokens and then re-invest them into making your pickaxe even better by using some of our new custom enchants! Read through the rest of the guide for some more information on these points, and see how you can become the Boss of our Prison Gamemode!

/Mines GUI:
As you rankup and progress through your Prison experience, (using the /rankup command), you will get the option to mine at higher level mines. These are bigger, and the blocks contained within them are worth more in value. You can easily tell which mine you’ve unlocked, as there will be a minecart with a chest icon! Simply click on a mine you’ve unlocked to teleport there.

If you have a rank, you have the option to use the donator mines, which can be found at the bottom of the GUI. Robber rank and above can also use the command /rankupmax to save them some time!

There are two pages to /mines, all the prestige mines can be found on this second page.



Pickaxes, Backpacks and Tokens:
A pickaxe and backpack, the two most important features of Prison, so it is important you understand how to use them! Upon joining, you will be given a pickaxe with efficiency 10, allowing you to instantly break blocks. As you break these blocks, they will be stored inside your backpack, (which is the chest). To sell these items for money, type /sellall, or press your drop key. You will also earn tokens, which are used to upgrade your pickaxe and backpack.

To upgrade both of these, simply hold your ‘sneak’ key, and right click. This will bring up a unique GUI for each, and with their simple layout, you can easily see all the available options.

Some enchantments for your pickaxe require it to be prestiged, which is achieved by mining a specific amount of blocks, and having the required amount of total enchantments. Here is a table of all the enchants, what they do, how they can be unlocked and their maximum level.

EnchantDescriptionMaximum LevelHow to unlockRequired Pickaxe Prestige

EXP Shop:
The EXP shop is a brand new addition for Snapcraft, and is host to some epic boosters, keys and weekly ranks which can completely change the game! Earning EXP is simple, each block you mine will grant you 1 experience. You can see how much EXP you have by doing /xp in-game. Access the shop by doing /expshop and spend all that hard earned EXP!

You might also be able to sell some of your EXP and Boosters bought from the shop to players online! This would get you more resources than actually using the boosters for yourself. Do not be shy and ask around in the chat!


Boosters and Frenzy Event:
Keeping track of all your boosters is vital, you do not want them to go to waste, or potentially lose them! Luckily, we have a command for this, being /boosters. In this handy GUI you can view all your available boosters, and what they are. We have a variety of boosters to enhance your experience, run the command and take a look!

Please note, most of the boosters we have come in the form of a ‘Booster Cookie’ which are a physical item, and can be obtained in numerous ways. These being: Crates, /expshop, /goldshop, /ah and other players!

Just joined the server and cannot afford a booster? Then do not worry, every 6 hours the server will run the ‘Frenzy Event’ which will provide a random FREE booster to all players on the Prison Gamemode. You can find when, and what the next event will be by doing /booster and looking at the clock!


Autominers:
We’re all a bit lazy, even if we do not admit it! Sounds like a perfect time to introduce our Autominers feature! These miners will automatically break the blocks for you, and you can collect the money and tokens from their hardwork! You can do /am or /autominer to access the GUI.

Within this, you can change and upgrade many things! For example: Upgrading the pickaxe, disenchant the pickaxe upgrading their speed and sell multipliers, give them an epic boost, and most importantly, change their skin! My personal favourite is the Spiderman one!

In-order for your autominer to work for you, you need to provide them with fuel. This fuel can be obtained from: /kits, crates and /ah. Simply right click the autominer fuel, and it will be added into the account. Make sure to collect all the money and tokens that they give.


Gems and Inmate Costume:
Who doesnt love to look the part when they are in prison? We have provided all players with an inmate costume. This gives everyone a uniform, and most importantly gives them a helmet which can be upgraded to provide numerous perks for the player.

In-order to upgrade your helmet, you need some gems. These can be obtained in the following ways: Crates, /ah, /milestones, /prestige and just mining! You can also use a booster to increase the amount of gems you are receiving during the booster duration.

Simply hold your sneak key, and right click whilst holding your helmet to upgrade it. You need to have the required amount of gems for each upgrade. If you lose your in-mate costume, you can do /kit starter to get a new one. Be careful not to lose the one you have been upgrading though!

Please note: To get the bonus stats from the helmet, the entire set needs to be worn. You cannot mix and match, or just wear the helmet. This will cause set to not work, and you will not get anything for it.


Online Store and Goldshop:
Our Online Store still has a variety of ranks, items and perks for our players to choose from. Thank you for all your purchases, we would not be able to have Snapcraft, and continue its development without all of you.

We have also introduced a new currency to Snapcraft, which will be present in all gamemodes upon reset. This is Snapcraft Gold! This unique currency will be available on all servers to make in-game purchases on things such as: tags, crates, XP and so much more! You can buy Snapcraft Gold from our Store. This currency is global across the Network, so choose carefully what to spend it on!


Privatemines:
Fed up of people taking all your blocks in public mines, and getting in the way? The private mine is the perfect solution! This allows you to have your own personal mine, with the option of inviting other players, if you want to be social!

You choose the structure of this mine, which you must have already unlocked through the /mines command. Not only can you pick and choose who is allowed, but you can tax people for it! They will mine, and you take a percentage of their earnings. Free money, never a bad thing!

You can purchase a privatemine of your own in the /goldshop, get super lucky from the officer crate, or ask really nicely in chat if someone has one you can buy.

There are so many more things you can do with your privatemine to make it so much better than the public mines. You can: increase the sell multiplier, make more beacons, invite more of your own trusted member and increase the amount of luckyblocks.

Beacons and Gang Top:
On our Prison Gamemode, beacons have a slightly different function to normal Minecraft. They are certainly more important now. They get you free Snapcraft Gold, and can earn you real-life money towards the end of the season!

Beacons are scattered in every mine, and the top 3 gangs who deposit the most amount of beacons will receive a payout of Snapcraft Gold each week.
Please note:The number of beacons that have been deposited into the gang will be reset each time there is a payout, even if you do not make it onto the top 3 gangs. Any beacons in your /blocksbalance will not reset.

To view a leaderboard of who has deposited the most each week, type /g top in-game. You can deposit, or withdraw beacons by using the /g bank command.

Auction House:
The Auction House is a place where you can sell individual items for a price that you set! To list an item on the Auction House, simply do /ah sell <Amount> whilst holding that item. To view the auction house and the items being sold, you use the command /ah. You can use the bar at the bottom of the GUI to navigate your way through a variety of options and menus in the auction house too!

The number of items you are allowed to list at one time depends on your rank. To list an item, you use the command /ah sell <Price>.

Additional Commands/Features:
Here is a list of extra features that deserve to be mentioned but did not quite make it into their own category!

Mystery Man:
This mysterious figure lurks around the spawn area, (only on weekends) and allows players to buy unique and powerful items in exchange for your gems! Their inventory will refresh every 12 hours, and allow you to buy all their items! Can you find the location of the mystery man at our spawn?

Gambling:
Fancy your chances against the server?! Gamble your tokens at spawn by interacting with the NPCs. You can either gamble big, or start small! There is something for everyone. Please do not get too addicted though, easier said than done.

Lucky Blocks:
Lucky blocks are sponges which are scattered throughout the mine. Simply mine them, or have them break using an enchantment and you will receive some bonus tokens! The amount of tokens you receive can be increased in a privatemine, or by wearing your in-mate costume with the relevant upgrades. Tokens are vital for increasing the effectiveness of your backpack, so make sure they are breaking!

Merchant:
Got a spare pickaxe that is no longer used? The new merchant feature is perfect! Trade in your unwanted pickaxes to return some tokens to your account. The Merchant will only take pickaxes that have over 150 levels of combined enchantments though. They set their standard high!

Mail Delivery:
A safe and easy way to send packages to your friends, even when they are offline!

With our Delivery System, you can now surprise your friends with gifts and items, or simply send them a package to help them out in the game. And the best part? You can do it all with ease and safety!

To send a package, simply type "/maildelivery" followed by the player's name, and an inventory will pop up where you can drop your items into. The delivery man will then make sure that all your items are carefully packaged and delivered to your friend in one small package. If you change your mind or want to cancel the delivery, simply click the "Cancel" button.

Leaderboards:
With our new leaderboard system, you'll be able to view your exact position on every leaderboard, whether it's in spawn or the newly introduced leaderboards. This means that you'll be able to see your rank and how far you are from the next level or achievement. Whether it's your highest killstreak, or your PvP kills, you'll be able to keep track of your progress in real-time.

You can do /warp leaderboards to view how you shape up against the rest of the server! Keep grinding for #1 on all leaderboards!
