Minecraft, awesome one man game project

Nothing really. :(

So, disable them on the current world, and look into starting world 2.0 for survival?

*Edit: I am SOOOOOO happy they fixed the block respawn bug. mining is no longer a massive chore. before you had to literally click-wait-click-wait-click-wait to keep the blocks from respawning.

*Edit2: turned off monsters and health for now on the current server. I'll look into setting them up on a new instance tonight or later today depending on work.

Just created a new instance for SMP. monsters-spawn and health-enabled both = TRUE. Same connection as before, but specify port 25567.
So like this:

Yeah, creepers explode in the same way as TNT.

But what are the block types that they don't take out? Just obsidian?

Obsidian and Adminium (the latter of which is completely unbreakable).

Hey, I played some on the new server today. Seems like there's a load of iron, coal and diamond to be mined. I already got myself a staircase to the adminium, the door is next to a small pond with sand around it, and an arrow made of torches. Holler if you want to pair up to explore the mine, there is a cavern I just discovered and by the sounds of it, a bunch of mobs.

Happy Gaming!

As long as we can do everything in game now (ex. pour water/lava from buckets, get gunpowder from creepers, etc.) I don't see a problem with that.

Pending any glitches or bugs, then yes. Also, until the Nether is implemented in Mp, I figure we might have a stash of nether blocks like light-stone and etc.

But don't expect 64 blocks of XYZ at the drop of a hat. I think the goal of this server will be to have a more of a survival feel so available and working items will not be given or produced freely. Though any final ruling is up to James.

I'm strongly for having no handouts on the survival mp server, not even nether-only blocks.

Agreed - we already have a server for that. This should be more realistic (well as realistic as a pretend block world can be) ;)

Me as well, however I think part of it will depend on what features get updated in the future. If new crafting items become available that use nether blocks before SMP portal access is fixed then we may want to discuss some sort of trading system to monitor handouts. Maybe for every gold bar you get a nether block of your choice.

Actually, now that i think about it, I think that is kinda cool since gold has no real purpose right now. Mods can act as stores and sell unavailable items. However, people have to mine and trade available materials to make it happen. They'll even have to work towards hiding their precious metals from other users who may try to loot them. Could make for some interesting game play.

Nether blocks are pretty sweet, though. The standard ground blocks in there make for some pretty cool flaming fences since they never go out, and lightstone is great for underwater construction, looks pretty cool down there.

As Taggart proposed, though, a trading system of some sort could work pretty well. I'd hope Lightstone would be pretty cheap, though, since it's main use is just to be used like torches.

There's a new version out, both client and server.

FYI

Agreed.

Btw...
As of right now, no one, not even me, is an admin/op on the new server. That means even if you wanted to, you could not spawn blocks from within game.

*Edit: Servers are updated and restarted.

Do minecart boosters still work in multiplayer?

I ****ing hate those GD mother ****ing GD creepers. **** them and their "stay alive during the daylight" stupid GD ****ing ********. ****ing ******* ****ing stupid ****ers.













:)









If anyone happens to notice some huge craters in the area near the spawn where we can't actually place any blocks to replace them, I wouldn't mind having an admin or two instituted temporarily to fill them in. ;)

BTW, monroeski, one of the creepers jumped in while I was leaving your staircase. BOOM! Well, I fixed it as much as I could with the supplies i had on me. Then I looked around and saw that you had had some problems with them as well.

And to the person who built a sandtower to the eagle's nest... there are stairs u know?

First on the agenda next time I play will be to mine mine mine until I find enough lava to make a decent moat.

I'm glad that the SMP server is going well. :p

I've only logged in to make sure it's working so far. Haven't had much time to actually play lately.

My account of what I did on the survival server yesterday:

I logged in and found myself on a beach. I noticed a tower of sand beside a workbench and a door leading into the hill not far away. I hopped about intending to explore but a skeleton quickly made me realize it was nighttime and I ran back to the beach intending to punch trees for wood so I could start building myself some tools. Sadly, the game decided to bug out at this point and every time I'd destroy a block, it would just immediately reappear... and so I ducked into the hill door to wait out the night, a long corridor stretching behind me as I peered out the window.

The next morning I emerged and immediately got to punching trees again, this time finding that the server was a little happier giving me what I wanted. I made some tools and built a boat then sailed off into the sea!

I found an island that looked interesting enough so I got off the boat and started looking around for pigs as I was down to just 1 heart after my run-in with the skeleton the previous night... unfortunately before I could find a pig, I dropped a little too far and splattered weakly on the sand.

I respawned back at the beach as night was beginning to fall again and that's when Adi joined in along with someone else I was unable to identify. As night came full-force I tried to dig straight down into the sand to save myself but it was at this time that the game decided once again that it didn't want me to break anything and thus I was stuck in the open unable to even punch trees for more wood.

THE END.

I was planning on staying for a while but due to the block issue you mentioned just decided to stake out on a sand pole and log. The other person was my daughter (Zatanna) :p
