I've restored the spawn villager, he shouldn't crash you anymore if you try to go past the end of the trades.

Also I have a poll about the Dakka map. Due to a bug involving the map being rotated and cropped, the co-ords are out of alignment. This affects displayed player locations, beds, signs, as well as the mouse over co-ord display and map links.

I was waiting on a bug fix to preserve existing map links, but the bug doesn't seem to be getting much attention. I can fix it by removing the current map rotation setting. This means the map will then have the north in the top left instead of the top right. Then all the coords will line up, but will break all old map links, as they'll now link to somewhere else on the map. Also the view perspective will have changed so if you've built something to be viewed from the map it will be shown from a different angle.

What do people think, wait for the bug to be fixed or rotate the map?

Do it as a temporary fix until the team responsible for the over viewer pull their collective fingers out of their collective butts, then switch it back.

I'm fine with that. I usually just move about the map anyways. Plus, I'd love to see the Mesa from a different angle.

How easily can you switch back and forth between them? Could you switch it for the day or something so we know exactly what we're getting? I voted 'yes' anyway.

That's a bit of a harsh thing to say. No-one is paying the Overviewer developers, they do all their work voluntarily. The code is open source, so anyone can take a look, download the code and try to fix the bug. I've even taken a brief look myself, but it's 1) difficult to pickup someone else's code on such a large project as this and 2) I've not got much experience with graphical rendering code.

Switching to the new view requires re-rendering the entire map, a very long and extremely computational intensive task. Currently I have the map only render the parts that have changed at a time when there's the least people on the server (9:30am GMT). Switching back isn't completely out of the question, but I'd like to avoid repeatedly re-rendering the entire map, due to the lag it will cause for anyone who happens to be online for the duration of the render.

The votes are currently in favour of changing the map. If there's anyone who hasn't voted yet, now's your chance:

I heavy loss, but maybe we can make a new Kiip, at a more grand location... though that might put Kiip out of viewing range. Did you already make Kiip out of Quartz? I could donate to you a stack of blocks (or more) if you require it.

We might have to move him..

I still wish there was an 'x-ray' option, so you could peel back a few layers and see the awesome inside structures.

Hrm. Dark, would it be possible to unload a specific chunk or two from the map, even if it's being used? You could, like, chop off the near corner of the Mesa to show off the basement area.

Does anyone know if there is an accessible public Guardian farm/grinder anywhere? Although I've recently cleared out an Ocean monument, if there is already one out there I can use to farm resources so I can focus on other projects it would be appreciated

So as I'm getting read to "retire" another librarian, because he doesn't meet my standards, I want to start a villager placement program.

I wonder if anyone else would like some custom villagers. The guy only has Smite 5, Efficiency 5, and projectile protection 4. I have people for those already so I don't need another one, this guy has to go. Yes those are correctly typed, no typos. I said smite 5, and efficiency 5.

Or my armor smith, trading a diamond chest piece with projectile protection 4, and unbreaking 3, which I already have one, thanks, don't need a second one.

I'm working on a pricing guide, but if anyone would like a personal villager who had specific trades let me know and we'll work something out.

So if you want a librarian with a specific book, I'll find him for you, if you want a smith with a certain tool or sword trade, I'll find him for you. Custom requests might take a while to find, so no rush orders.

I found this video today and it really helped my game run better. For those that lag in the game, this might help solve the problem. I didn't install optifind, I just played with the minecraft settings and it got rid of the spots I used to notice lag in.

To Merliones.

You started building a house on my island. I've claimed the entire island, but if you'd like to build here, I think we can work something out and come to an agreement on who can build where.

I intend to build on the large mountain and rock spires here.

https://www.darkinnit.com/newdakkamap/#/275/64/-4163/max/0/0

You've built a house down on the ground below the cliff, could you move this please? I want to keep this area free for farms, roads etc, and I'm going to build a huge Erebor/Lonely Mountain style mine entrance into the cliff face.

https://www.darkinnit.com/newdakkamap/#/266/64/-4112/max/0/0

Perhaps you could build on these two hills? They'd look cool with a bridge connecting them.

https://www.darkinnit.com/newdakkamap/#/316/64/-4069/max/0/0

My structures here over by the portal were temporary. Eventually I'll remove the cobblestone structure and the area will be available for building. I'll build some sort of pedestal or building to house the portal.

This is a call for help to anyone on the server right now.

I have fallen off my tunnel into lava, (in the Nether) and would request if someone could possibly come by and hit me with a splash potion of fire resist (I have one at home in my chest if you really need it...)

If you walk toward my place on the Great East Nether tunnel, you should come across a single-block hole in the middle of the tunnel. This is what I fell into, and where I'm directly beneath. There's some Netherrack close to where I am if you don't want to chug a pot and go lavaswimming yourself- I carved a staircase down to that bit in the fortress support a little bit furthe back- it's hidden under the netherbrick stairs.
