What are Team Jurisdictions?

Team Jurisdictions allow you to define where each ER:LC team is permitted to operate.
If a player leaves their assigned jurisdiction for too long, the system will automatically warn them and if needed, take action such as respawning the player.

​
How to use Team Jurisdictions

You can configure Team Jurisdictions from your
ER:LC Integration → API page, located beneath Safe Zone Enforcement.

​
Configuration Options

1

Assign Jurisdictions to Teams

Each team, Police, Sheriff, Fire, and DOT, can be assigned a specific jurisdiction.
Leave a team blank if you do not want it to be restricted.
2

Open Jurisdiction Editor

Click this button to view or modify the boundaries of each jurisdiction.
You can use preset jurisdictions or create custom ones.
3

Minutes Allowed Outside of Jurisdiction

Set how long a player may remain outside their jurisdiction before receiving a warning.
For example, 5 minutes gives players time to return without immediate actions.
4

Number of PM Warnings Before Action

Choose how many PM warnings a player receives before enforcement occurs.
Each warning is sent one minute apart.
5

Jurisdiction Enforcement Action

Select what happens when a player exceeds both the time limit and warning limit.
Such as Respawn the User, Make the User wanted and Kick the User.
6

Exclude Moderators

Enable this to prevent moderators and higher staff from being affected by jurisdiction enforcement.

​

The Jurisdiction Editor allows you to view, assign, and create jurisdiction boundaries directly on the ER:LC map.
1

Choose from preset jurisdictions such as Police or Sheriff, or select a custom one.
2
