NameLayer is a common plugin on Civ servers which allows for the creation of shared groups. Any player can create a group, and there is no limit on the number of groups a player can be a member of. Each group has a tiered rank structure, with players having varying level of permissions inside a particular group.

Groups interact closely with Citadel, which allows reinforcing a block to a specific group. The group a block is reinforced to informs several other plugins. For instance, Citadel protections can be bypassed by players on their group, snitches and bastions will not affect players on their group, and item exchanges can be locked to a specific group. Groups can also be used to send chat messages visible only to players on that group.

First introduced in Civcraft, NameLayer has been included in every mainline civ server since.

Combat

Civ servers often change combat to pre-1.8 mechanics, make players tankier, and generally rebalance all combat-affecting items. The plugin that handles this is often Finale..

In CivMC the following changes are applied:

• Sweeping attacks are disabled
• Attack cooldown is removed
• The cooldown of ender pearls and golden apples is set to 16 seconds
• Clicks per second are limited to 9
• Custom food health regeneration and knockback values are set
• All non-sword damage is reduced by 20%
• Instant health regenerates 12 points of hp (6 x ♥)

Logging out and Combat tag

When disconnecting from the server you leave behind a CombatLogger for at least 60 seconds, commonly referred to as logger, a CombatLogger is a player entity that can not move (or be moved) but can be killed, and it's death is treated as you dying meaning you can be pearled or lose your inventory. To avoid leaving this entity behind you can issue the /logout command, starting a 10 second process that, if not interrupted by PvP or movement, will disconnect you at the end without leaving a logger, this however is disabled while you're combat tagged

Besides entering PvP throwing an ender pearl also combat tags you
