New Player Guide

What a new ATMons player should know before the first long session.

This page keeps the useful stuff up front: how to get settled, which commands are worth remembering, and what the reward bundle system actually does.

First Steps

What to do when you first join.

ATMons is a big pack. The easiest way to waste your first hour is to try to understand all of it at once. Get safe, claim land, and use the quest book to point you in the right direction.

1. Open the quest book

Start with the welcome and main quest pages. They are good enough to point you at the first systems that actually matter.

2. Claim your area

Open the map with M, use the claim controls, and protect the area you plan to build in before you get comfortable.

3. Make a team

If you are playing with friends, run /ftbteams party create <name> early so claims and permissions are not a mess later.

4. Don’t wait on the quests

If you already know the pack, move at your own pace. The quests help; they are not there to lock your route.

Useful Commands

Commands actually worth remembering early.

This stays conservative on purpose. The point is to list what is useful now, not send people chasing commands that are disabled or only show up in old quest text.

Info

/rules

Read the server rules first. It is the fastest way to avoid dumb first-day mistakes.

Help

/helpop

Use this if something looks broken or you need staff attention without leaving the game.

Social

/msg and /reply

Direct messaging is enabled, so you can talk privately with friends or staff when needed.

Status

/list, /playtime, /ping

Use these to check who is online, how much time you have, and whether lag is you or the server.

Utility

/recipe

Useful when you know the item you want but not the chain to get there. Combined with JEI, it cuts down confusion fast.

Social

/afk and /me

Small quality-of-life commands, but they help on a community server when you are stepping away or running an event.

Teams

/ftbteams party create <name>

Create your team first if you are playing with friends. It is the cleanest way to share claims and chunk control.

Teams

/ftbteams party invite <player>

Invite friends into the same team so they can build in your claimed area without fighting permissions every session.

Supply Credits

/trigger xael_open_common

Spend 10 Supply Credits to open a Common Supply Bundle once you have earned enough playtime credits.

Supply Credits

/trigger xael_open_rare

Spend 30 Supply Credits to roll a Rare Supply Bundle with stronger starter and midgame rewards.

Supply Credits

/trigger xael_open_epic

Spend 75 Supply Credits to open the Epic tier once you want bigger progression swings.

Supply Credits

/trigger xael_open_legendary

Spend 100 Supply Credits for the Legendary tier when you want stronger late-midgame utility.

Commands the quest text still mentions

The upstream ATM quest text references commands like /sethome, /home, /spawn, and /rtp. In the current server snapshot those are disabled, so do not rely on them until staff says otherwise.

Chunk claiming reminder

Chunk claiming is not a slash command. Open the map with M and use the claim controls there. That is one of the biggest first-day protections you have.

Claim limits in the current snapshot

The captured ATMons config allows up to 500 claimed chunks and 25 force-loaded chunks per team. Plan bigger bases with that in mind early instead of scattering claims everywhere.

Supply Credits

You earn 1 Supply Credit every 5 minutes online. There is still no verified public /points balance command in the current snapshot, so do not assume one exists just because older guides mention it.

Loot Tables

How the reward bundles work, without pretending they are more complicated than they are.

ATMons uses both regular FTB quest rewards and Xael Supply Bundles. Supply Bundles are earned in-game only. They are not sold for money and they do not have cash value.

Supply Credit Rate1 credit every 5 minutes online
Bundle TiersCommon, Rare, Epic, Legendary, Mythic
Balance GoalUseful progression help without turning into paid-only power

Quick bundle advice

Do not hoard forever, but do not burn credits blindly either. Use lower tiers to stabilize your first base, then move up once your storage, power, and travel are under control.

Good progression path
  • Common: first-night and early survival smoothing
  • Rare: early-midgame materials and Cobblemon support
  • Epic: stronger progression spikes and storage-friendly value
  • Legendary: infrastructure and exploration support
  • Mythic: premium utility once your base is already stable

Bundle balance notes

Cobblemon rewards are intentionally limited to basic balls, healing items, and berries. There are no rare Pokemon, no Master Balls, no IV or EV shortcuts, no high-end held items, and no paid-only progression inside the in-game Xael Supply Bundle pool.

Need More Help?

The fastest help is still Discord or the support form.

If you are new to ATM-style packs, ask early. It is easier to get pointed at the right questline, machine, or item than to lose two hours going the wrong direction.
