[Server [2015] Updates]

I'll be posting updates here that occur on the server since there are a lot of mechanics and small details that cant be stuffed into the motd.

All future updates will be posted in the blogs section.

March, 21st 2015

 

Excavator:

• Added a new skill "Precision Mining". Causes pickaxes to mine a 3x3x1 area. Press shift or sneak to switch between prospector and precision mining.

​Magician:

• Arcane bolt now has a larger damage radius and affects zombie pigmen.

​Spelunker:

• Spelunker chests now have a chance to drop off monsters.

Monsters

• Monsters that are spawned from monster spawners no longer drop items or experience due to the mechanics of item drops for some player classes.
• Monsters will not drop items unless killed by a player.

[[Ended]Nether Changes Poll]

Much want. Question about the new custom fortresses (Which look amazing btw). Will those replace the existing type? Will they be in combination with the existing type? Are there multiple different custom fortresses. Just curiosity, if you answer woo. If you dont, its whatever, just curiosity.

 

 

The regular nether fortresses will still be there because they spawn blaze spawners, wither skeletons, and chests. There is only 1 version of my fortress which will only be spawned throughout the nether a few times.

[[Ended]Nether Changes Poll]

Much like the custom overworld, I have been working on a custom nether for the server. It has no bedrock ceiling and features a varied landscape with giant mountains, rocky valleys, lava oceans, obsidian shorelines and stone patches rich with ores. Coalbock veins spawn throughout the nether similar to diamond in the overworld but with a higher spawnrate and a 256 elevation. I would reset the nether and put this one on the server but I know people have built some things in the nether and I do not want to just wipe it without giving them a chance to vote on it.

 

The goal of my nether is to make it worth the time to be in the nether. As right now the only thing bringing players to the nether are nether fort chests, blaze spawners, and quartz.

 

The poll has ended and the votes are in. It looks like the nether reset is going to happen soon. I recommend avoiding logging out in the old nether to avoid spawning over lava oceans or suffocate in netherrack in the new nether.

[Jail appeal]

I was accompanying you in your mining journey and noticed that you clearly using an x-ray. After you went on your mining adventure I followed you back to your house where I found nearly 1000 diamonds in your chest. It also does not help that you have used a hacked client on our creative server which has a x-ray mode as well. Unfortunately, this is your 3rd strike on the server and will result in a perma-jail.

[Minecraft is Trippy or in this case for me... Broken :P]

I relogged and it was fine for about 3 minutes, and then happened again and froze my laptop D: i dont know what to do here

It almost sounds like the graphics processor is overheating inside your laptop. Install something like http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/hwmonitor.html and see where your temperature stands when running Minecraft for a bit.
