As a TrekCraft builder, you're part of a collaborative team working on ambitious, long-term projects. These rules ensure quality, consistency, and a positive building environment.

• Planning Required: Always use planning blocks for any project before building
• Scale Standards: Corridors generally should be 3-4 blocks wide, decks 3-5 blocks tall
• Hull Work First: Complete hull-cleaning and deck planning before interior work
• Fill Dead Space: Minimize exposed block faces and empty areas
• Modern References: Try to use current, modern builds as 1:1 reference. Inspiration from older projects is fine

• Group Contribution: Every builder is encouraged to support community builds, or group builds when possible
• Staff Approval: Staff approval is not required for new projects, but we do appretiate a heads up on new imports

• Open to Feedback: Be receptive to both positive and constructive criticism
• High Standards: We hold each other to S-tier building standards

• Signage: Limit to hero areas or planning purposes only
• Performance: Consider server performance when building large structures
