Decent Dungeons: land ownership and how parcels pay players

Wallet-linked floor slots 1–1000: 5% land tax on chamber gold to the node’s parcel owner, plus a share of the server vault from death tithes—settled daily around 03:00 ET per GravityRunner.

Floor NFT slots are numbered 1–1000 in Decent Dungeons (the GravityRunner build): if you register a parcel on your linked wallet, you can receive dungeon gold from other players’ runs in two different ways—land tax on earnings and a server vault split—both tied to daily settlement around 03:00 ET, per the project README.

What “owning” land means here

This is a game layer tied to a MetaMask-style link and an evm:-style player id—not a claim about real-world title. The README describes floor NFT slot owners for nodes on the weekly map (one shared graph per season; reset Sunday 03:00 America/New_York). Everyone sees the same exits and floor NFT index per node that week.

Payout 1: land tax (tied to the floor you hold)

While explorers are in chambers, 5% of dungeon gold they earn accrues to whoever owns the floor NFT slot for that chamber’s node—parcel ids 1–1000. That is the land tax row in the README’s feature table: it is not a separate token ticker; it is gold routing inside the game economy.

With a connected wallet, the README lists land, land claim <1-1000>, and land collect under Land (wallet)—use those for parcel registration and collection flows.

Payout 2: server vault (death tithe, split across owners)

When a player dies, 5% of the value of backpack lines lost goes to the server vault. On the same daily ~03:00 ET settlement cadence, the vault is split among registered land ownersequal per owner, as written in the README (not “more shares for more parcels” in that sentence).

So a parcel can matter for which node’s tax you collect, while the vault distribution is described as per owner in the README’s death-tithe line. Check the README if that distinction shifts in a future commit.

Where you see it in the UI

The browser client shows stats (including Decent Coin and energy), a cave minimap with floor NFT #, and bank also surfaces server vault balance when stats load—useful context if you are tracking vault-related flows alongside ledger / bank (surface stash that survives death).
