Joining the server

1. Install the modpack

BSP is a modpack, so you play it through the CurseForge app rather than the normal Minecraft launcher on its own.

1. Download and install the CurseForge app.
2. Open it, choose Minecraft, and search for Build Secure Protect. Or open the modpack page and press Install.
3. Press Install, wait for the download, then press Play. The Minecraft launcher opens with the pack ready.

2. Add the server

1. In Minecraft, open Multiplayer and press Add Server.
2. Paste the address into Server Address: minecraft.buildsecureprotect.comCOPY IP
3. Press Done, then Join Server.

3. What you get

The moment you join for the first time you are given:

• Your Shatter Totem. The only one you will ever be given. It cannot be crafted, so look after it. See Your Shatter Totem.
• The guide book, which explains every block and machine in BSP-Core in game.
• 500 Shatter Pieces in your bank account: the everyday money for shops, kits and land.

The server may hand you a starter kit as well. If your inventory is full it waits for you: open the kit browser with the KITS button in the top-left corner of your inventory, or type /kits.

4. Choose your main server

BSP has four servers to build a base on: Frostwarf, BoulderBrook, Moongrove and Stormfall. The first time you head for one, you are asked to choose your main server. It is one choice, free, for ever: your base goes there, and you always have access to it. Every other server you rent for a while or buy outright with Access Tokens from the shops.

A tenth hotbar slot after the usual nine opens your teleports: homes, warps, players, your team and a random spot on any server. Scroll past the last slot, or press . (by default), then right-click.
