What are guard towers?

A Guard Tower is a unique structure that can be crafted to provide your town with automated defense. When constructed, the Guard Tower will periodically spawn guard mobs that are loyal to your town. These guards will automatically spawn whenever a non-nation member is detected nearby, ensuring constant vigilance.

Guard Tower Variants 

The guards spawned by the tower are programmed to attack any player or entity that your nation has flagged as hostile. Additionally, they will retaliate against any entity that inflicts harm on a nation member. You can manually summon guards by pressing the button on the spawner block within the tower.

Health and Maintenance

Each Guard Tower has a health value that depletes whenever a guard is killed by an enemy player. If the tower’s health reaches zero, the tower will be destroyed if it is located outside of a town or will become inactive if inside a town. Fortunately, the health of the tower regenerates slowly over time, allowing for long-term use with proper care.

Managing and Customizing the Guard Tower

By right-clicking the spawner block, you can access detailed information about the Guard Tower, including its current health and status. This interface also allows you to customize certain settings, such as whether guards should attack neutral players.

Customization Tip: Make sure to set your nation’s banner using the /nation setbanner command. Your nation’s banner will be proudly displayed on all of your Guard Towers, showcasing your nation's identity.

Note: Destroying the spawner block will result in the complete destruction of the Guard Tower, so handle it with care.
