I was on yesterday around 11:00 EDT (GMT-5 or so?) and was busy mining sand and cooking some glass.

When I got back on around 8:00 EST, someone had stolen a stack of coal and my boat.

I'd really appreciate someone owning up to this. It's not nice to steal someone's coal.

You're right! I need mah boat!

Actually, I'm just miffed because I had to go back to my house to get coal. But still, seriously, who takes coal out of a furnace where stuff is cooking?

I've found the crater and fixed it. Creepers will be very dangerous while the server is laggy (while the maintenance is being done).

The lava coating the netherside spawn portal has also now been removed and once the server maintenance is done I will be investigating it.

Not in vanilla Minecraft. Bukkit plugins may make it possible, but we don't run Bukkit, we like to live dangerously.

And fully protected areas take all the fun out of the game. I played on a server where you could 'protect' pretty much anything, and so despite it being a 'survival' server, everyone was more concerned with making stuff look good than with keeping things whole or repairing stuff, and ended up building dozens of little towns all over the place, where nobody actually lived.

As do I, which reminds me. Would anyone mind if I extended the sort of "bridge" I have at my house out to the path at the manor that extends out to spawn? I marked it out in torches and meant to ask but forgot.

If that nice forest is to be preserved and the bridge still allowed I could always just make it a gravel path or something.

Here's the current bridge.

Here you go (I must say this Dinnerbone they hired from Bukkit is a good little bugfixer):

Re-adding the ability to get glass blocks with Silk Touch.
Dinnerbone added the option to go back to the main screen after 'Saving Chunks' or 'run out of memory'
Dinnerbone limited framerate on menu screens
Dinnerbone added a feature "you will love"
Dinnerbone fixed some bugs:
Fixed TNT ghosts in multiplayer
Fixed thin ceilings/walls leaking light (off-by-one error in block light calculation)
Fixed text rendering over items in the container screens
Fixed being able to change a block's metadata using pistons (wool, stone bricks, slabs, etc)
Fixed enchanted items in minecart chests, furnaces & dispensers losing enchants when destroying the container
Fixed paintings destroyed while sprinting dropping two paintings
Fixed exploit with jungle saplings turning other saplings into jungle ones
Fixed being able to grow huge jungle trees with only one jungle sapling
Fixed the "flickering" of chat as it vanishes off the screen
Fixed godmode exploit on SMP where someone can become invincible
Fixed launcher opening minecraft dir if the path contains a space
Fixed fatal crash for converted worlds to Anvil, when there's blocks at max height
Fixed an old bug with signs clearing text while you're editing them in SMP
Fixed incorrectly swapped en_GB and en_CA language details
Fixed crash when logging in while there are blocks at max-height at spawn
Fixed server throwing an error on connection
Fixed entities sometimes becoming invincible on SMP
Fixed entities being uninteractable if they existed at login on SMP
Fixed crash bug when trying to connect to invalid server addresses
Fixed regular server crashes
Fixed clicking 'Open texture pack folder' button crashing the game
Fixed being able to place mushrooms in high light levels
Fixed redstone lamps dropping powered redstone lamp when destroyed while on

Also LegoBurner tells me the worst of the server maintenance is done, so the server should return to its former none-laggyness now.

There will be 2 hours of laggyness again "later" and the odd 5 minutes here and there, but the worst is over.


Minecraft @ 2012/03/19 14:38:45


Post by: Chowderhead


What was the server maintenance for, anyway?

Was it for the MC Server only, or was the lag due to Lego messing around with Dakka?


Minecraft @ 2012/03/19 14:43:05


Post by: darkinnit


The Dakka Minecraft server runs on a "behind the scenes" Dakka server. This server was beginning to run low on space so they had to migrate everything off it onto a shiny new server. Hence the laggyness while everything was transferred. The Dakka Minecraft server will be moving with it eventually, but if you're using the web2.dakkadakka.com address to connect it should be fine...

An interesting idea...
Spoiler:



Basically a half slab, empty full block, then upside-down half slab. This creates a 2-high space that you can walk through but enemies cannot.

Could make some interesting "mob viewing rooms" in spawners.

Until this new guy fixes it at least.

I suppose it could be put at doors as a sort of safety screen. I know I've had a few creepers follow me in when I've forgotten to shut the door...

It could actually be used for an interesting mob trap if you have a switch that causes the ground beneath the door to open up to a nice drop or perhaps a drowning trap.. Perhaps 2x2 or 3x2 to get the spiders?

After all the mobs would gather around it because they can see you.

Well there's one. Start looking on the map for a nice place to build it (want to build it close enough to spawn that it doesn't take five minutes of walking to get to from the spawn portal, ideally), and if you find a place ou like, suggest it. I'll be looking too.

What we could do is have each plot surrounded (under the ground, of course) with Obsidian- maybe edge or make the roads from it? (3-5 blocks wide, with yellow wool/glowstone middles?) That way, if anyone makes a house that's too too terrible, we could move their stuff, and TNT it away.

Building near spawn isn't a nono. If you mean the transition to 1.0 when I said I wouldn't copy existing buildings to within 500 blocks of 0,0 then that was just for the buildings I was copying. You're more than welcome to build anything you like at spawn, as long as it's not a big cube of some plain material.

I actually think it'd be neat to find the edge of where you can build (due to Server things) and put a cube or dome of black wool/Obsidian speckled with Glowstone over it. Make it look like a night sky.

We actually ought to build a Golden Throne at 0,0, really. It's the beacon by which everyone navigates, after all.

Sorry I have no way to tell the difference between "glitched off the edge" and "forgot to hold shift" so I won't return the items because I can't tell if you just fell to your doom on your own or not. Besides, 2-3 stacks of Netherbrick is not a lot really...

Oh, I was only asking because Netherbrick is non-renewable. Sure, there's plenty in the ruins, but once it's used, it's used, and if it's gone, it's gone forever. Even if it's just given to someone else, that'd be fine.

Okay, so here's the plan:



Dunno if that is easy to read due to its size, but essentially, 11x11 blocks which are designated as the owner's property, with 3 blocks of grass between the road and the property (an overhang over one of the grass blocks is fine), and the road itself is essentially stairs, two slabs, then more stairs.

The properties will be in streets of eight properties as shown, to save space cause the roads are pretty big.

Anyone else have any input in the spawn suburbia? I'll be selecting the location after we've got it planned out.

Well, I have tonnes of glass, and I live in a desert, so when I'm next on, and you've desided fully where it will be build, I'll place a chest at the site and put my glass in it


Minecraft @ 2012/03/20 21:12:40


Post by: Melissia


I updated it. Also we might include fences (or iron bars to represent chainlink or metal fences) in the middle grass block between houses if you guys want.

I'm gonna encourage everyone to have at least a minimalistic home-- you don't have to use up all 121 square meters of space, but it would be nice if it filled up at least one block.


As for what I need.... stone brick, dirt, wood slabs to start it off with, and about eight signs.

Stone brick for stone brick stairs for reference. This is what my "road" will look like in the default skin:



The stone brick stairs will be flush with the grass in the suburbia design-- we could also make a one block wide sidewalk of cobblestone or stone brick if people want.

oh no, it's not mine, but I will be making something like it, just not as large.

Also, that hut could be mine, from when I got lost in the tunnels, I cam up near there. It was gwetting dark so I started to build a shelter. Then I went to get more materials and got lost...

Then found and tamed some wolves, who brought back a creeper for me to play with....

It's a ~20x11 or so house made of wood planks with a small melon/pumpkin garden in front and some glass pane windows, and a staircase leading up to the roof.

Wait where abouts is this wood house? On a river with a chest under a tree near the small garden which is fenced off a bit?


Minecraft @ 2012/03/21 14:41:58


Post by: Melissia


Something like that. ALso the interior of the house is pretty blank and unfinished.

As for where, I posted the coords a couple posts ago, but essetnially it's somewhat off of dark's bridge, on the opposite side of the bridge from janje's filthy ugly ass maze. Not sure if it's within sight of it though.

There are now three places opened up in the suburbs (just outside the 0,0 portal and very close to spawn, nestled against the corner of Darkinnit's bridge).

Some rules:

1: Don't build entirely out of cobblestone. Vary it up.

2: Don' build so that your building connects to the fences. You have an 11x11 space to build in.

3: Don't build massive towers without approval. I'm thinking ~30 blocks high, maybe fourty, would be a good limit.
-- UNLESS you ask first. If you have an idea in mind, talk with me about it.

4: If you want to build an overhang, like the demo building I have constructed in the first lot, please be sure to not let it get directly over the fences. The fences are the boundaries between plots, so they belong to no-one technically.

5: Be creative within these rules!

6: Be sure to light up your place and be mindful of keeping creepers out. This is a respectable community and we have no room for riff-raff like creepers.

Whoa. That Wooden Plank update is amazingly useful.

On a related note, I hope all my creations don't suddenly turn into harlequin-wood-structures. All existing wood has the same block code anyways, so this shouldn't be a problem, I hope.
I should plank-down all my collected logs so they match colors for now.

My idea was something like this:



A lockable chest that can be accessed from either room and is locked by a cat who is in the room above. The top half blocks are only there to prevent people from viewing the room above through the slit on the top of the chest (as it isn't quite a full block in height).

Are you talking about this?
http://www.darkinnit.com/dakkamap/#/-122/64/1991/-3/0/0

I set up that portal a while ago. It goes straight through the highest point in the nether to my citadel. I'm planning on making an Eldar-ish Craftworld high in the sky there soon. I tried to choose a place in the middle of the water so it wouldn't block anyone's projects and wouldn't cast a huge mob-spawning shadow.

The portal isn't connected to the nether system proper. It's at y=111.

Is it a problem?

Maybe, I think I only have about 10 birch saplings. May start to build them up now that there are different colours.

Oh and for those that don't know the slabs are still the normal colour. Stairs are too obviously.

thought that would be the case... (planks & Stairs wise, not sappling wise )
Sappling wise, that's perfect as I only have 5 sapplings atm.

I'll be on tomorrow, though, not now 'cause I'm feeling a bit sleepy (a day of exams does that too you...)

Also, is this an ice house? WTF

Probably blew up as they gave it the badge.

I now have a stack of birch saplings.

Also at the end of town there seemed to be a sort of sandstone guide thing to see what they looked like. I've put a plank of each colour with a log of their type on top there as a guide thing.

Obsidian and Diamond... If you're making an enchantment table, to save you some time, there is a public enchanting room directly opposite your cobble tower, underneath the "Giving tree" (just take the stairs down from spawn).

I do apologise. Who ever owns the large house near the sphere in the sky, i went inside for a wander and to have a look around. A creeper and a spider spawned inside so to avoid causing any explosions i went up a ladder and had to escape out of the wall. You may find that there is a few blocks missing. I figured that this would cause minimal damage rather than have half of the ground floor including all the storage chests blown up... My apologies...

Well, thanks for not blowing up all of my chests.

For easier figuring out where monsters will spawn you can now use the SHIFT+F3 debug screen and look at the "bl" value. http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/F3
Walk around and look for any "bl" that is lower than 8 (hostile mobs can spawn at 7 and below).

http://www.darkinnit.com/dakkamap/#/-315/64/-528/-1/0/0

Over the past few months, this refinery has come under severe disrepair with much of the wood irregularly burnt away and a creeper hole in the main structure.

It's somewhat of an eyeblight and I'm thinking about expanding into it. I'm just wondering if Frostoman even still uses this structure at all. I'll take the decommissioning all onto myself if needed.

Suburbia PD is mostly built, Its getting late and the hubby is yelling at me to goto sleep...

Mel, if ya don't like it where it is/at all, feel free to blow it up.

It just needs a roof, and to be stocked. There are labeled chests inside for Weapons, TNT, and Lights.

I've started assembling books shelves to place an enchantment area within it as well.

There is also the issue of blocks layout for the streets, 0,0 Street breaks up normal the flow of roads, so I stopped it at the park, and started to build the next street over. This creates an oddly shaped parcel of land that might be good to use as a Tree Farm, or for someone who wants to have more under ground then above ground.

All of the melons are in place, all of the vines are missing. None of the tilled soil has been disturbed.

Someone did this intentionally.

Mel, do you mind if I make a kind of manhole hatchway to the sea below on the corner of the pathway by my house? It's not on my plot (about 2 blocks out of it), but I figure it'd save a bit of time instead of swimming to the edges of the suburbs to the surface.

For the record Dark, I 'Wasn't likely to Die', I was building sections of Suburbia and fell through the bottom 15+ times drowning followed by a number of server crashes/restarts while trying to get my stuff back. I lost alot more the then the single stacks of Brick, Iron, and Wood Slabs I asked for.

We'll make a plot for you. I've been asleep.

Yes, your house is the one that needs to be better lit because it keeps spawning monsters everywhere. Also?

Please don'tgrow trees that have leaves which grow over the street, at least not so close to the ground.

Ok, ok, I'll give you the items you asked for, but you think you would have learned after the first 10+ times you drowned?

I'd recommend you fill in the water with gravel if so many people are drowning due to currents.

Mel, if you give me permission I'll use creative mode to add at least a "basement" layer" of at least 10 blocks under the land, unless you want the water there?

It was a combination of stubborness, and poor luck. Also a few of those were trying to help Mel and ET get stuff...

Where X is stone and O is water, cover the stone with ladders and have a hatch at the top.

I like the floating suburds...

Actually, no sorry I am incorrect. He said the ground was still tilled an it was. That sheep is untilling the ground so it wasn't the sheep. Although a sheep there is not helping.

If you have stocks of gravel to donate, I'll be glad to take them.

You could also create the basement, if you want. Though I should warn you waht we're expanding it to is fairly large...

On something this big, I'm not gonna turn away good help without good reason, hehe.

On the map, look up and to the left of zero zero. I don't know when the map was last updated but it should at least have the beginnings of suburbia on.

Starting work on the SCDF (Suburb Creeper Defense Force), a branch of the since extinct dakka creeper defense force, which will have a department in the police station. No blocks yet placed, we're just gathering materials.
also, 5 manholes/air pockets are now in place across the suburbs, not an eye sore (IMO), and are quite useful, I think.

Mel, just been on for the first time in ages, and Suburbia looks really good.
Can I please have a plot to build on? I assume I needed to ask you first.

Post by: Melissia


As long as they're not an eye sore I don't mind them.

Man, You guys have put in so much effort, it kinda helps me relax lol. I used up all my stores of cobblestone, wood, and coal to make the streets thus far.

Any open plot that hasnt' been claimed. Ask around about it on the server.

'Home Depot' is nearly complete, just installing the floor and some more chests/labels.

The manholes might be useful if Dark adds his basement level. Access to a seedy under-suburbia, or just escape routes would be cool if nothing else.

I'd be down to build a sewer system if this basement level is added.


Minecraft @ 2012/03/25 16:32:38


Post by: Melissia


I'm fine with a sewer system. Make it out of smoothestone and it'd look quite nice.

Hell actually cobble would work for a sewer system, it's not meant to be pretty anyway and it's underground so I don't mind. Or cobble floors with smoothestone walls.

Okay folks, 'Supply Depot' is now open.

There are a bunch of chests inside, mostly labeled for what they contain. Please try to keep things organized.

Also its supplied by You, for You. Remember that.

Also, I moved most of the food into the farm's chest, just so people who go looking to harvest food can find it there.

P.S: Please don't take anything other than food/seeds from the farm chest, ATM it's full of resources for the SCDF.

I wouldn't mind a home in Suburbia, if there's room for 1 more.

We're always expanding.

Also.

I just died a stupid death and lost 3 stacks of glowstone, three enchanted axes, two enchanted picks, two enchanted shovels (all iron), half a stack of cooked steak, two soup bowls, a set of stone tools, a full stack of fences and wood, a stack of cobble, and a few other things.

And I can't even ask dark to replace the stuff cause it was an entirely natural and stupid death... :/

No idea where the sheep came from, unless he somehow glitched his way out of the pen (not unlikely).

Also, everything was fine last night, fethed up this morning.

I lost some iron, gold and at least 6 diamonds in one of the periodic "rollbacks" - I mined the diamonds, but the server reset my inventory to just before I mined them (I respawned almost exactly where the diamonds had been). Unfortunately, the world didn't reset.

Any chance of getting those 6 diamonds back?
