# Creating Areas

To create an area, type the following command in chat:

/lands selection

You will now have a golden hoe tool in your hand and see the selection text on your screen. You'll be selecting a cuboid (think of a 3D rectangle) by choosing two points at two corners of the cuboid. 

![](/files/koNWkUcfSwGCDf3HBjwt)

This is a **3D cube** so you must consider height. If you select 2 points on the same vertical axis (both points on the floor) then your area will only include the floor. You generally want to think of a 'bottom' point and a 'top' point. 

![The selection screen you see after typing /land selection](/files/wUbcoJ0x5di3iAsW8EAM)

Left click with the tool to select the **First** point. Right click to select the **Second** point. 

You will see a visualization of your selected points with floating particles. 

Once you're happy with the selection, type the following command: 

/assign {NAME OF YOUR AREA}

Example: */assign SandCastle*

**You've now created an area named SandCastle!**

If you want to resize your area or select a whole new area just repeat the process. If you **assign** with the same name as an existing area, you will replace the old selection with the new one. If you use a new name, you will create a new area. 

{% hint style="info" %}
**This process is MUCH easier to follow in-game.**  If you're confused by the text, play around with the selection tool in-game. Once you do it once, you'll be able to create new areas in seconds. 
{% endhint %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.cryptocraftgame.com/genesis-land/gameplay/land-ownership/creating-areas.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
