Place your flag before building, keep it raised and create the territory. Think about where you want your base spawn before choosing the flag position. Check the current building rules before settling on a location.
A flag doesn’t override the rules
A territory or lock doesn’t let you enter another player’s base, build somewhere restricted or raid outside the rules. If you’re unsure how protection works on your server, ask staff. Upkeep timers and storage coverage depend on the current settings.
After an update
Read the latest notices for changes to locks, territories and vehicles. The October 19 Core and Vehicles post discussed locks on supported Nasdara doors as testing work, not a confirmed live release.
For a problem with your base, send staff the server name, time, what happened and useful screenshots in a support ticket. Keep the base location out of public chat.
