# /settings

The `/settings` command opens a personal options inventory GUI allowing players to configure client-side behaviors, fly parameters, and HUD choices.

***

## Command Details

* **Syntax**: `/settings`
* **Permission**: `buildsystem.settings` (Default: `true`)
* **Description**: Opens the personal settings GUI.

***

## Granular Setting Options (v4.0.0 Update)

To toggle any setting inside the GUI, players must hold the corresponding permission node `buildsystem.setting.<option>`. If a player lacks the permission, the button in the GUI is disabled or hidden. All settings are default-allow.
