Boooooooooo James boooooooooo ;)
Haven't actually played the game in a while, but a month or two ago (and periodically before that) I did load up the map and browse around a bit.

The new 1.9 update is out. Going to try it tonight. Combat has been changed a lot.
Is the group minecraft server still running?
I logged in last night. It is still up.
nice...might have to jump in and see. i have no idea how mush it has changed.
I've been thinking about jumping back on as well of late. Hope the last time I logged off I was sitting in the remote base I made, because without the map being active anymore it will be pretty rough to ever find it again.
darksavior.net:25567 monroeski just reminded me.
I did update the server to 1.9. Logged in long enough to make sure it was up, then went about my day. But it would be fun to join back in if people will be online again. I did notice the other day that someone has built just massive catacombs below the base. vast tunnels to nowhere with random redstone projects, etc. in them.
Anybody know who that was?
Sweet, logged in and I was in my base after all. Got the coordinates saved now so I can find it whenever.
I haven't played Minecraft since then but It is one of my fave challenging games. I'm glad to hear that it has a new update.
I sit possible to get one final map update? I'm curious as to how big the world has gotten.
May have accidentally expanded the map a bit yesterday. Thought I was heading off in the direction of my little camp, but went the wrong way heading out of our main base. Not sure if where I headed off to was already explored or not.
I'll run a map creation.

*Edit again: I've moved the map from primary SSD storage to hdd secondary storage. A lot more space, but it might be significantly slower. But for now, I'll leave it up on the slow storage.
Thank you James! I don't play much nowadays but it's fun to get on and hack around once in a while. Really appreciate you still hosting this.
Getting a message right now that the server is down.
Updated the server to 1.9.2.
It was in fact down. Not sure what was going on. I've been sick as a dog since the 1st when we did our datacenter move at work. I'll try to keep a closer eye on it in the future.
Been playing a lot lately. Think I'm kicking the server's *** with a long tunnel I'm building to connect bases. :D
Possibly. The map has grown quite a bit since bringing the render back online. We have quite the world going these days.
I've been sticking pretty much only to areas that we had already mapped, though I'm deep underground so maybe it is adding that part to the map (not sure if world creation builds all the way down to the bedrock when you're above ground or not).
I do cover a lot of ground with tunnel building, though, so I think where I'm really hitting the server is just loading a lot of the already-mapped geography in-game.
So...
Update on all this. I've once again turned off the map rendering. It was literally choking out enough resources on the system that it was triggering OOM killer (out-of-memory) process, killing off other processes, including the actual minecraft server!
So no new map updates for now.
But the server was updated to 1.9.4 today.
Update 1.10 is out today. Can you update the server at your earliest convenience James?
Done.

That's pretty awesome. Might end up annoying though. Will have to play with it more and see.Quote:

*Edit: Oh, and I loathe the auto-jump feature. I disabled it nearly immediately.
Auto-jump sounded bad to me from the beginning. I guess I'll give it a shot but I'll likely be disabling it soon as well.
