The Island Menu

Every button in the menus that /island opens, from the island list and the island picker to the main Island Menu, with what each click does, who can use it and where to read more.

The Island Menu system is the set of windows behind /island. Your Skyblock Islands lists every island you belong to, Select an Island asks which island you mean when several fit, and the main Island Menu is the control panel of one island: teleport home, members, permissions, upgrades, settings, status, masteries, generator, dimensions, recruitment, leaving and disbanding.

Every button in these menus reacts to a plain click. There are no right-click, shift-click or middle-click variants, so the menus work the same on Java and Bedrock.

How the menus connect#

  1. /island (or /is) opens Your Skyblock Islands.
  2. Clicking one of your islands opens the Island Menu for it.
  3. The buttons of the Island Menu open the other island menus, which each have their own page.

Commands such as /is settings or /is members open a sub-menu directly, and they use the island you are standing on, or the Select an Island menu when you belong to several islands and are not standing on one. The rules are on Creating an Island.

Your Skyblock Islands#

/island always opens this three-row menu, whether you have no island, one island or several. Your islands fill the middle row, seven to a page.

Create Island#

A three-row menu titled Create Island with one button per island template. Only the Original Island template is on offer. Clicking it creates the island and teleports you there. Details are on Creating an Island.

Select an Island#

The Select an Island menu opens when a command or menu needs to know which island you mean and more than one fits. It prints "You have multiple islands. Please select one." first. It is not shown when only one island fits.

  • The entries look like the ones in Your Skyblock Islands, but the tooltip ends in "Click to select". Owned islands are gold, joined islands aqua, and "You are here" marks the island you stand in.
  • The same menu lists another player's islands for /is visit <player> and /is info <player>, and the islands that invited you when you accept or reject an invite.
  • Closing the menu without clicking cancels the command.

The Island Menu#

The Island Menu is the control panel of one island. Its title is Island Menu and it has six rows. All buttons sit in the middle three columns:

  • Row 2: Visit Island, Island Settings, Island Status
  • Row 3: Island Members, Island Permissions, Island Upgrades, Island Masteries, Value Items
  • Row 4: Island Generator, Generator Filter, Island Dimensions
  • Row 5: Leave Island, Recruitment, Disband Island

Every tooltip also ends in "Click to open!", "Click to view!" or "Click to visit!", except the status, leave and disband buttons, which carry their own last line.

Who can use what#

All members see every button. A click that the player's role does not allow either does nothing or answers "You don't have permission to do that!". Roles run from Guest, Co-Op, Default, Trusted and Officer up to Co-Owner and Owner. The defaults below can be changed by the owner in the permissions menu.

ButtonWho can use it
Visit IslandEvery member
Island Settings, Island PermissionsEvery member can open them. Changing settings needs Set Island Settings, which Officers and above hold by default. Saving a permission change needs Set Permissions and, with default settings, in practice only the owner can save, see who can change permissions
Island StatusMaking the island public needs Open Island (Co-Owner and above by default). Making it private needs Close Island (Officer and above by default). An island with public warps cannot be made private
Island MembersOpens only for a member who holds at least one of Invite Member, Kick Member, Ban Members, Promote Members or Demote Members. Officers and above by default. Other members click and nothing happens
Island UpgradesThe button opens only for the island owner. Other members can open the menu with /is upgrades, and what they can buy there depends on their permissions, see Island Upgrades
Island Masteries, Value ItemsEvery member
Island Generator, Generator Filter, Island DimensionsEvery member can open them, but the island has to be loaded. If it is not you get "Your island must be loaded to manage the generator!" (or "...the generator filter!" or "...dimensions!"). Use Visit Island first
RecruitmentOpens only for a member who holds Manage Recruitment Listing (Co-Owner and above by default) or Review Island Applications (Officer and above by default)
Leave IslandEvery member except the owner. The owner gets "You are the owner of the island!"
Disband IslandThe owner only. Anyone else sees the confirmation menu and then "You are not the owner of the island!", and nothing is deleted

Weekly challenges#

The live Island Menu has no Weekly Challenges button. Open the challenges with /is challenges instead, see Island Challenges.

The disband confirmation#

Disband Island closes the Island Menu and opens a confirmation window titled Disband your Island. The centre shows an Information item with "Are you sure you want to disband your island?" and "This action cannot be undone!". The green Accept area on the right deletes the island. The red Decline area on the left cancels and returns you to the Island Menu. The full list of what is deleted is on Deleting and Resetting an Island.

Tips#

  • Use the Island Status block to open your island for a visit and to close it again. Its colour tells you the state at a glance: emerald is public, redstone is private.
  • If a button does nothing, check your role. Members below Officer cannot open Island Members, and only the owner can use Island Upgrades here.
  • Several islands? The head with "You are here" in the island list tells you which island the commands will use.
