Getting Started with Autcraft: A Minecraft Server for People with Autism
For individuals on the autism spectrum, finding a safe and inclusive online community can make gaming more meaningful and enjoyable. Autcraft — a Minecraft server created specifically for people with autism — offers exactly that. The name “Autcraft” comes from replacing “autism” with “craft,” symbolising creativity, connection, and belonging.
Setting Up Minecraft for Autcraft
To join Autcraft, you’ll need the Minecraft Java Edition for PC, as this is the version that supports custom servers. If your computer doesn’t have it installed yet, you can easily download it from Minecraft.net.
Next, you’ll need to create an account with Enjin.io, which helps link your Minecraft character to the Autcraft server. You can either register directly through Authcraft.com or use your Enjin account to log in.
The Whitelisting Process
Autcraft operates as a whitelisted server, which means every player must be approved before joining. The process usually takes about two weeks.
Whitelisting ensures a safe environment — administrators have a record of all users, allowing them to manage issues quickly and keep the community secure.
You can check your whitelist status anytime by logging into the Autcraft website and navigating to the Whitelist Application section.
A Safe and Supportive Space
Autcraft prioritises player wellbeing. The server enforces clear community guidelines to ensure a positive experience for everyone — including no bullying, killing, stealing, griefing, or swearing.
If you ever need assistance, you can contact the admin team through a ticket support system. Players can also request protection for their builds, ensuring their creations remain secure.
Community events, such as Fourth of July fireworks displays, are regularly held to bring players together and celebrate their shared experiences.
How to Connect to Authcraft
Once your whitelist is approved, connecting is straightforward:
- Launch Minecraft Java Edition (version 1.15.2).
- Go to Multiplayer → Add Server.
- Enter one of the following server addresses:
- mc.authcraft.com
- mc2.authcraft.com
- Click Done, then double-click the server name to join.
If one server experiences lag, you can switch to the other for a smoother connection.
Linking Your Minecraft Character
Before you join Autcraft for the first time, you’ll need to link your Minecraft character to your Enjin profile. This ensures your in-game progress and rewards are connected to your account.
To link your character:
- Log into your Enjin account.
- Go to Profile → Characters → Add Character.
- Type in “Minecraft.”
- Follow the prompt to enter a code.
- To get this code, open Minecraft → Multiplayer → Direct Connect → type
mclogin.enjin.com→ Join Server. - A verification code will appear — enter it back on Enjin to confirm.
Once verified, your character will be officially linked to your Enjin profile, and you’ll be ready to explore Autcraft.
