The Dogcraft Build Team is compiled of a group of players, tasked with creating builds for the Dogcraft Server. These builds include server required builds, and any worlds, hubs, etc. for minigames.

History

The Dogcraft Build Team was originally a group of players from the staff team, tasked with creating farms on the Dogcraft server. In Survival 2, before the launch of said world, a new group was selected from the larger Dogcraft community. They were tasked with creating the Survival 2 Spawn area. This team, which would end up becoming build team that exists today, was led by at first SummerFlower1234 and Wildfirev. When the team became official, Wildfirev remained its leader. The Build Team is overseen by the Headmods, who at the time of its founding were j0n_r4ng and Rustbite who was also heavily involved in leadership decisions in the beginning. A separate discord was made for this team on the 1st of July 2017, by Rustbite.

Survival 1 and 2

This team, and its predecessors, would work on different projects, like various server malls, the official pigman and enderman farms, the dogcraft hub, and minigame areas (Hide n Seek and Nitro UHC arenas, Bedwars maps, and the different associated lobbies). One of the biggest undertakings of the official build team, during Survival 2, was the complete terraforming of the central end island. The project, undertaken by a team lead by then master builder Mr_Quasi aimed remake the end island in an organic style. Big mushrooms were built to cover the end gateways, each by a different member of the team working on the project, and large custom trees were created around each of the end pillars by kimandjax. Additionally, the endstone ground was replaced by an organic dirt and podzol mix. The whole area was protected by the Worldguard plugin, to preserve the island, except for a ring around each pillar, enabling getting to the top during a dragon fight, and mining obsidian before one.

Survival 3

During the Survival 3 world, the build team had constructed various public use areas, such as the official server Mall, the Endermanfarm, the Pigmanfarm, and partake in the construction of several Event locations, among other things. Also during Survival 3, the build team began organizing themed Build Battles, roughly every three months. In the August of 2019, Wildfirev retired as the leader of the build team, OldmanLP85 taking over the position. The leader of the build team along with the Master Builders oversee build team projects.

Going Build Team Projects

Some of the build team Projects, still ongoing at the time of the writing of this article, were the revamping of the survival Jail, the terraforming of the Survival 3 end island, and the organizing of further Build Battles. With the server update to Minecraft version 1.14.4 on the 24th of September, 2019, the construction of a completely new hub to replace the one active since 2017 was announced, to be created by OldmanLP85, kimandjax, RoseRedTiger and Mipronk.

Joining

The builders in the team are chosen from players on the server. The selection process includes an application to join the team, followed by an "interview". Traditionally the potential members were required to build something according to a theme and instructions. Recently, the build team began hiring members based on Build Battle entrants.

 == History ==
-The Dogcraft Build Team was originally a group of players from the mod team, tasked with creating server farms. This then expanded with the addition of Survival 2, where a select group of community players formed a Build Team and were tasked with creating the spawn castle and surrounding grounds. This team was overseen by then head mods, {{Player|Ectobeast}} and {{Player|Navi_Heylisten}}, and led by {{Player|Wildfirev}}. The Build Team discord was then founded on the first of July 2017, by {{Player|Rustbite}}, as a way to keep in touch with all the current projects better.

+===Survival 1 and 2===
+This team, and its predecessors, would work on different projects, like various server malls, the official pigman and enderman farms, the [[Server_Hub|dogcraft hub]], and [[minigame]] areas (Hide n Seek and Nitro UHC arenas, Bedwars maps, and the different associated lobbies). One of the biggest undertakings of the official build team, during Survival 2, was the complete terraforming of the central end island. The project, undertaken by a team lead by then master builder {{Player|Mr_Quasi}} aimed remake the end island in an organic style. Big mushrooms were built to cover the end gateways, each by a different member of the team working on the project, and large custom trees were created around each of the end pillars by {{Player|kimandjax}}. Additionally, the endstone ground was replaced by an organic dirt and podzol mix. The whole area was protected by the Worldguard plugin, to preserve the island, except for a ring around each pillar, enabling getting to the top during a dragon fight, and mining obsidian before one.
-Other Projects then included the beautification of the survival 2 End island. This project, headed by {{Player|Quasi_1987}} saw the end island become a mystical wonder, with giant trees surrounding the obsidian pillars (courtesy of {{Player|kimandjax}}) and giant mushrooms encasing the end return portals. The entire ground cover was changed to a podzol/dirt combo, in a never before seen makeover. The island was protected by world guard to prevent the dragon destroying blocks, as well as preventing player griefing. Players were only allowed to place/break blocks in a 1 wide ring around the obsidian pillars.
+===Survival 3===
+During the Survival 3 world, the build team had constructed various public use areas, such as the official server Mall, the Endermanfarm, the Pigmanfarm, and partake in the construction of several [[Event]] locations, among other things. Also during Survival 3, the build team began organizing themed [[Build Battles]], roughly every three months. In the August of 2019, Wildfirev retired as the leader of the build team, {{Player|OldmanLP85}} taking over the position.
