* **Size** — Expand the island border
* **Member Limit** — Allow more team members
* **Warp Limit** — More island warps
* **Generator** — Better ore generation rates
* **Farm** — Improved crop growth

Players earn upgrade currency by completing missions and building island value.

Missions [#missions]

Missions give players goals like:

* Mine 1000 blocks
* Place 500 crops
* Kill 100 mobs
* Reach a certain island level

Configure missions in `/plugins/IridiumSkyblock/missions.yml`.

> 💡 **Tip:** IridiumSkyblock works well with economy plugins like [Vault](/docs/minecraft/setup-vault) and [EssentialsX](/docs/minecraft/setup-essentialsx). Set up an economy to make the island shop and upgrades more meaningful.

> 📝 **Note:** For custom island schematics, place `.schem` files in `/plugins/IridiumSkyblock/schematics/` and reference them in the config.
