Minecraft Thread IX: Beginning of the End

**Matthias2207** · 2012-05-03, 08:27 AM (ISO 8601)

Something very strange happened in one of my SSP worlds.
I had 16 sheep, one for every color.
I went mining, came back, suddenly had 18 sheep. 2 orange, 2 lime.
I can't find anything about it on the wiki, so I have no idea how it happened.
Do they just multiply spontaneously?

I made one of those on the beach, you can feel free to tear that down for materials.

If the testing world gives everyone creative, I would suggest using the same safeguards that Ironcraft has.

Could I get a list of all the safeguards used in Ironcraft? I don't want to miss anything and leave loopholes.

**Eldest** · 2012-05-03, 12:55 PM (ISO 8601)

Essentially, you have to die to leave the world. I don't know the exact safeguards. I'd ask Mem or Scuzz about that.

Fair enough. I'm pretty sure I'll be able to ask Scuzz at some point today.

Heh, too late. The gate's finished now, I just need to build a gatehouse of some sort to hide the mechanism.

Well, that and get an admin to shift the entire thing down one block. Turns out I should have dug a little deeper when building my pit.

EDIT Gatehouse is mostly done now, just got to turn some of the dirt bits inside into cobble. If anyone feels like decorating the outside to mesh better with the corner guardhouses, feel free.

AWDI here, It's been some time since I've played minecraft alone and on this server. Right now, what update are we at?

Thank you ~~to whoever responds.~~ The mage king

**The-Mage-King** · 2012-05-03, 10:05 PM (ISO 8601)

We're on 1.2, at the moment. So current build.

It's like Obsidian Junction. I own the town, but I've allowed others to build in it. I run the town, but what they build is their thing. I do stuff like laying out roads, walls, terraforming, managing lighting and helping people find a nice spot to build on that won't conflict with anything else.

Also, Im back from surgery, and am resuming construction. The store skyscraper has been completed, and a warehouse started. Expect the store to be restocked in coming days...though we may see a currency change due to wool becoming vastly more farmable.

**Togath** · 2012-05-04, 04:12 PM (ISO 8601)

how about to gold nuggets?, That way you could vary the prices more easily.

Gimme a poke on Steam (memnarch or memnarchx) or send me a pm with what you want for safeguards.

**Eldonauran** · 2012-05-04, 05:52 PM (ISO 8601)

How does currency work on this server anyway?

**memnarch** · 2012-05-04, 06:09 PM (ISO 8601)

There's no server in place currency. It's basically just what the players are willing to trade. (ex. mageking used iron bars as currency at one time; he bought/sold stuff with that as his "coin")

**Maxios** · 2012-05-04, 08:11 PM (ISO 8601)

I once wrote out a complex economy using coal as the currency.

Still do. Now I just buy/sell stuff in iron blocks, when I'm getting bulk or selling it.

Simple enough mat to get, useful, and no one EVER has enough. Perfect currency. Also, Dragonlance ref go!

Wow! I was thinking about Dark Sun Mode (Not a typo, just interesting to see Simon the hairless dwarf or Mul) for Minecraft! Now, you just made Iron currency.

I didn't, that was Mage-King.

Someone else (about the same time) started a business where the coin was wool blocks. Mainly because he was building huge things with wool, so it made sense for him.

**The Bushranger** · 2012-05-05, 07:37 AM (ISO 8601)

Hm, I might just be losing my mind (It'd be a small loss), but it appears some fencing I put up (Terra, adjacent to 558, 76, -5) vanished overnight....

**Draconi Redfir** · 2012-05-05, 07:44 AM (ISO 8601)

felt bad that i haven't been logging on due to work and wonky sleep schedule, so i did a little cleaning around rp town, mostly repairing and re-opening tale avenue, fixing some ender damage, and tearing down my gate skeleton and putting it's materials in a chest inside the gate Tome made. (BTW Tome, you'll need to /unlock that "for repairs" chest for other people to use it.)

**TechnoScrabble** · 2012-05-05, 12:23 PM (ISO 8601)

Has anyone here tried the mystcraft mod yet?

**Saposhiente** · 2012-05-06, 02:08 PM (ISO 8601)

Worlds being very slowly transferred to new box. ETA 2 hours.

**omegaoracle** · 2012-05-06, 04:28 PM (ISO 8601)

seems that the server is down

**Matthias2207** · 2012-05-06, 04:36 PM (ISO 8601)

Something with the server being transferred to a new computer, or something.
Should be solved soon, I guess.
And a new IP?
Maybe I'm misinterpreting a lot of stuff right now, but that's what I tell myself it is.

**Nyrt** · 2012-05-06, 04:44 PM (ISO 8601)

From what I know, the server is moving to a new computer. At the moment, the two computers have separate IPs, and therefore two seperate servers, and are both down, but eventually, both IPs will direct you to the new one. Currently, data and worlds and the like are being transferred between the two so that the new one will just pick up where the old one left off, but better (from what I hear the new box is slightly nicer).

**omegaoracle** · 2012-05-06, 04:53 PM (ISO 8601)

cool that sounds great

**Saposhiente** · 2012-05-06, 05:11 PM (ISO 8601)

Got stuff transferred.
New box is up at scuzzball.serveftp.com
Features:
-More maxplayers
-Replaced WorldInv (the thing for getting into hardcore) with another plugin of my own making, WorldGroups!
--Organizes worlds into groups. You have entirely separate inventory, health, location, everything for each world group. Replaces the need to die and stash stuff and all the hassle from before.
--Group 0 is the main group. Group 1 is creative/ironcraft. Group 2 is hardcore. Group 3 is rp.
--To tele to a group, use /wg <groupnumber> . You will be put wherever you were last seen in that world group (So you can be doing stuff at your hardcore house, /wg 3 to go participate in rp stuff happening with your rp inventory, and then you can /wg 2 and you'll be right back at your hardcore house with your hardcore inventory)
--It will automatically change your inventory and stuff whenever you teleport. So you can be in world, and then you can tp to someone in creative to admire their work, and your inventory and location will be saved for when you /wg 0 .
-Brought back the old creative world, with most of its stuff. Accessible with /wg 1 .

:o
Sapo, you are amazing!

**Scuzzball** · 2012-05-06, 05:25 PM (ISO 8601)

Okay, so this officially marks me stepping down as head admin, in favour of Saposhiente.

**Nyrt** · 2012-05-06, 06:15 PM (ISO 8601)

And so passes the ending of an age.

Also, it seems that McMyadmin client is still down. Perhaps it has moved as well?

**Tome** · 2012-05-06, 06:41 PM (ISO 8601)

Deme, you wanted to be informed if anyone found any interesting caves or mines in RP world, right?

Well, I found a whole new cave system. Seems quite extensive and eventually leads into some mineshafts. Judging by all the unmined ores, I'd say they're unexplored. The warp for the entrance is rpweird.

Shall we get a group together and go spelunking?
