Detective

JustLegendMilk: Made it SC consistent

As a Detective, your job is to investigate crimes, primarily murders, and solve cases using clues left behind at crime scenes. Unlike Constables, '''Detectives don’t arrest criminals or jail them''', but instead, focus on gathering evidence, processing clues, and solving cases. Detectives work closely with Constables by providing the necessary information for them to issue arrests and track down criminals.

=== Reporting a Murder ===
When a player dies in the game, it’s possible for a murder case to be created. Murder cases are reported by:

* Victims using <code>/999</code> or
* Random passersby who see a clue and click on it to report the murder.

This will create an open case for Detectives to work on. Detectives can view all open cases by using the <code>/cases</code> command.

[[File:Example of an assigned case.png|thumb|Example of an assigned case, located on the '''last page of the GUI once claimed.''']]
You can click on a case to assign it to yourself. However, you must solve the case within '''6 hours''', or it will become unassigned.

* '''Assigned cases go to the last page of the crime menu!'''

You won’t be able to assign yourself to the same case again, but another Detective can take over. Additionally, if a case remains unsolved for '''24 hours''', it becomes cold and can no longer be solved.

[[File:Example of a collected clue.png|thumb|337x337px|Example clue collected by detective]]

=== Collecting Clues ===
At the crime scene, 1-3 clues (e.g., blood splatter or projectile casings) will be left behind, depending on the murder method. Detectives have '''60''' '''seconds''' to find as many clues as they can once they arrive at the crime scene. The killer may attempt to move the clues within 4 blocks of the body, but if you're quick, you’ll be able to find them all.

* '''Blood splatter''' is often left behind when a melee weapon is used.
* '''Projectile casings''' are left when a ranged weapon is used.

=== Using the Analyser ===
After collecting clues, a Detective must bring them to an '''Analyser''' located at a Police Station. The Analyser processes each clue and reveals important information such as:

* Who started the fight
* The victim
* The attacker
* Location
* Time of death

These '''revealed clues''' provide all the details necessary to piece together the full story of the crime. Without using the Analyser, clues won’t reveal any information, so it’s crucial to process them properly. Detectives must wait 30 seconds between uses of the Analyser. Only Detectives can use this tool.

[[File:Example use of evidence locker.png|thumb|383x383px|Example of clues in evidence locker menu]]

=== Solving the Case ===
Once all clues have been processed, Detectives should return to the '''Evidence Locker''' by '''right-clicking the case in the <code>/cases</code> menu.''' Move all revealed clues into the locker and click submit to solve the case.

[[File:Example of a solved detective case.png|thumb|464x464px|A solved case, if all goes right you should see this!]]
If the person who started the fight doesn’t match the victim, a wanted point will be generated for the attacker. Constables can then issue an arrest.

If a Detective fails to gather all clues in time, the case will go cold and can no longer be solved. If you're struggling to find enough clues, '''enlist the help of another Detective''' before the timer runs out.

'''TIP:''' You can assess the scene before picking up clues.

=== Cold Cases ===
If a case isn’t solved within '''24 hours''', it becomes a cold case. Cold cases are moved to a special section in the <code>/cases</code> menu, and Detectives cannot solve them. The clues associated with cold cases become invalid, so it’s essential to act quickly.

=== Tools and Responsibilities ===
Detectives use specific tools that help them investigate and solve cases:

* '''Analysers:''' Reveal detailed information from clues.
* '''Evidence Locker:''' Used to submit processed clues and solve cases.

Unlike Constables, Detectives do not:

* Chase down criminals or
* Arrest and jail criminals.

Those tasks are handled by '''Constables''', who can handcuff, tase, and jail criminals based on the information provided by Detectives. After solving a case, Detectives should notify all available Constables to issue an arrest if applicable.

=== Constables vs. Detective ===
It’s essential to understand the difference between Detectives and Police Officers:

* '''Constables''' chase down, arrest, and jail criminals. They have tools like handcuffs, tasers, pepper spray, and batons to manage crime.
* '''Detectives''' investigate crimes, collect and process clues, and solve cases. They do not make arrests or chase criminals.

Only Constables can jail criminals. Once a case is solved, Detectives must coordinate with Constables to ensure arrests are made.

=== Frequently Asked Questions ===

* '''How do I report a murder?'''
** Use <code>/999</code> if you're the victim or click on a clue if you’re a passerby.
* '''What happens if I don’t solve a case within 6 hours?'''
** The case becomes unassigned, and another Detective can take it. You won’t be able to reassign yourself to the same case again.
* '''What happens if I don’t solve a case within 24 hours?'''
** The case becomes cold, and the clues disappear, making it impossible to solve.
* '''What does an Analyser do?'''
** It reveals important information from clues, such as who started the fight, the victim, the attacker, and more.
* '''What should I do after collecting and processing all clues?'''
** Submit the clues in the '''Evidence Locker''' via the <code>/cases</code> menu to solve the case.
* '''What should I do if I’m struggling to find enough clues?'''
** Enlist the help of another Detective before the 6-hour time limit runs out.

By following this guide and understanding the responsibilities of a Detective, you’ll be well-prepared to pass the exam and serve your community by solving crimes!
----This guide now includes the requested updates about revealed clues, time limits, cold cases, and the distinct roles of Detectives and Police Officers.

Chef

2026-02-19T00:37:34Z

JustLegendMilk: Drastic overhaul + new recipes entirely

Chefs play a crucial role in the well-being of the Kingdom, as they are responsible for producing our food and supporting many farmers and companies’ income. As a Chef, your primary task is to take crop items and transform them into delicious new foods for players to enjoy. Keep in mind, some of these foods have special effects!

==== What chefs do ====
While your official job is to convert crop items into delectable dishes for players, the world of culinary arts is full of possibilities. In practice, chefs can do much more! For instance, you might collaborate with a brewer to establish a restaurant offering a variety of beverages alongside your meals. You could also supply your culinary creations to other players’ restaurants. If you’re not keen on venturing into the commercial sector, you can set up a rental agreement to operate a food stand on someone else’s property. Get creative, the world is your kitchen!

==== Passed the exam? Now what? ====
Once you’ve successfully passed your chef’s exam, it’s recommended that you either purchase or rent your own plot of land to establish your very own food-related business. If this option doesn’t pique your interest or you lack the necessary funds or land, you can seek employment opportunities through the StateCraft Discord. Join the StateCraft Discord server to explore potential culinary careers.

However, to open your own business, you’ll need to have passed the Entrepreneur exam at the University and register your business with the Ministry of Trade and Finance.

==== How cooking works ====
To view all available items and recipes, simply type <code>/recipes</code> in-game.

Each recipe comes with its specific ingredients, and sometimes you might require containers as well. You can explore the ingredients needed for different recipes, sorted into categories like cooked food, desserts, and beverages. If there’s more than one page, you can navigate by clicking the arrow in the bottom right of the box.

[[Category:Trades]]

To see the recipe for a specific item, select it from the list. If the recipe contains non-vanilla items, you can click on those items to learn how to craft them. To go back, click the red ‘x’. You can explore more pages by clicking the blue arrows and search for a specific item using the magnifying glass icon on the home screen.

JustLegendMilk: Major additions, etc.

A job in StateCraft allows you to make money, by either making money directly or selling your goods or services to other players. Different job titles have different abilities, perks, and more!

=== Getting a job ===
Most jobs require completing an exam at the [[University]]. You can get to the university by typing <code>/university</code> to warp directly, or typing <code>/gps university</code> to travel.

These exams include questions from the wiki & will test your knowledge about the details that will be important to your effectiveness. Don't worry, the exams are open book ;3.

=== Jobs available ===

Trades are lower-paying jobs that are typically more basic than professions, such as farmers and miners. However, they are very important to the wider economy, so don't discount them! You can only have one trade at a time, and if you want to switch your trade you have to quit your current one and take another exam at <code>/university</code>.

JustLegendMilk: Added flavour image to the landing page.

[[File:SC wikiLanding flavour img.png|frame|alt=The flavour image of the landing page, showing the tower at spawn with the text "StateCraft - Build Today. Govern Tomorrow." The tower is lovingly and unofficially referred to as "Big Brittle".|Welcome!]]
== <big>👋 Welcome</big> ==
StateCraft (SC) is a realistic, city-based Minecraft roleplay server, part of the Minecraft Cities Network. It is home to the [[Alexandria|Kingdom of Alexandria]]. On StateCraft, players can engage in real-life scenarios such as creating a business, getting a job, investing in real estate, or even trading in our very own stock market. Also, you can spend your hard-earned money on exciting vehicles like cars, helicopters, jets, bikes, and much more.

==== 🚀 Getting Started ====
To begin your journey, you can ask a [[Tour Guide]] to help you understand the basics and show you around Alexandria. If no Tour Guide online, don’t worry! You can ask the friendly players on the server for assistance or take the time to explore the city yourself while waiting for a guide to come online. There's always something to be explored in Alexandria!

We strongly recommend joining our {{SCDiscord| Discord server}}and registering on our [https://www.mcstatecraft.com forums] to stay connected and interact with other players!

<code>NOTE: We strongly encourage you to join our {{SCDiscord| Discord server}} and register on our [https://www.mcstatecraft.com forums], as they are the MAIN HUB for announcements, jobs, auctions, and much more!</code>

==== '''Joining the Server''' ====
You can join '''StateCraft''' on both '''Java Edition''' and '''Bedrock Edition''' using the following IPs:
* '''Java Edition''': <code>play.mcstatecraft.com</code>
* '''Bedrock Edition''': <code>play.mcstatecraft.com:19132</code>

==== Jobs & Exams ====
One of the first things you should do is get your first job! You can do this by going to our University by entering <code>/university</code> in game.

We have three main categories of jobs:

# Trade - these are considered manual labour jobs with not many special perks.
#* They are good for beginners who want an easier starting off point. Many allow you to gather resources easier to sell or to craft into other items.
# Professions - these jobs build on trade jobs by having more advanced or special perks.
#* This could be specialised crafting recipes or plugin features.
# Government - you cannot get a government job immediately, but after around 24 hours of in-game playtime a lot of players apply for these jobs on our forums.
#* Government jobs will provide wages, and many also have additional commission based pay.

At any given time, you can have two trade jobs, one profession, and unlimited government jobs!

For more detailed information, check out individual job guides that interest you!

==== 💷 Making Money ====
When you join StateCraft for the first time, you start with a solid £1200 to get you started. While it’s a great amount to start with, it won’t last forever in Alexandria. To keep earning money, you’ll need a skill or a job. Here’s how you can get started:

* '''University:''' Go to the [[university]] by using the command <code>/university</code> and get a qualification to become a true expert.
* '''Get a Job:''' Join our discord server and head to <code>[https://discord.com/channels/1148937229616566273/1148954550724722749 #employment]</code> and find yourself a suitable job offered by players.
* '''Make Money:''' Work on that job for a time and earn money!
* '''Government Jobs:''' After gaining experience, if you have the urge to serve the Government of Alexandria, you can apply for a position in one of the [[Executive Ministries]].

If you like to be independent and prefer not to rely on companies or traditional jobs, you can setup your own [[Chest Shop]] where you can sell demanding items like food, armour, potions, firearms, vehicles, and more.
