I didn't know you could revert a server to a previous state. How do you do that?

I'm interested because I'm hosting a server of my own with some friends, and our favorite game is to build a castle and then besiege it while other guys try to defend it. Reverting the server after each game would avoid having to entirely rebuild it.

Get the minecraft server script from the minecraft wiki (too lazy to google right now), one of the script options is to backup. Running that automatically (or manually) every few hours allows you to keep snapshots of the server in different states, and then just shut down the server, rename the world folder and copy the backed up snapshot folder to the world folder location before restarting and all is back up and running . Very simple.

n0t_u wrote:I just figured out how to finish the Spleef arena whilst keeping as close to the game as possible and to ensure it doesn't burn down again.

Snow blocks (rather slow I know. ), and people use wood shovels to play it. I'm mentioning it because it will still be a while before I can get the time to log back on and work on anything properly (net comes back in a week, then exams at the same time as a few assignments -.- ). But, when I can I intend to build a snow base so I'll be able to keep the arena stocked and running fine. Seems easier to do so than hunting wool all the time and if a creeper gets in there it doesn't wreck everything for ages.

I just updated to 1.5_1 a couple days ago, and... Holy crap. About every 5-10 seconds, I get a big lag spike and freeze up for anywhere from 1-3 seconds. It's almost unbearable. Setting the graphics to the absolute bare minimum does nothing for me at all, not that I should need to. I'm pretty sure my -brand new- month old PC with 6GBs of RAM and a top of the line ATI card out of the box is more than capable of handling Minecraft. Especially since it's a new world and I haven't explored beyond the first chunk yet.

It might not actually be Minecraft or your comp causing the lag, I was gettin some bad lag and frequent crashes aswell and all i done was installed the 64 bit version of Java and now it hanst crashed or lagged.
