So you want a system where you can buy a diamond from mining like 512 cobble and then the system generates a diamond that was never in the ground? Or a system where everything is player mined/made and just traded?

I have no objections to second method as everything stays real world where resources are scarce. But I used to play on a server where you would drop cobble in a box and it would give you say 1 gold bar for every 64 cobble. You could then buy a diamond by putting 10 goldbars in another chest. This is what I do not want as it is close to just spawning items.

I defo second option. Dont want system generated that is not proper economy.
you can only buy what players mined/farmed. this is more real world and i think would be great. It also bring in the likes of having player creating group guild like a mining guild type thing or where players could become blacksmiths.
i am sure it can be expanded by players they are just examples.

Okay, well if that doesn't work I have an idea that'll work, I can't really explain it on the forum, so I would have to show you in game.

I know the obvious answer, but why were mob removed from the server?

If we made the roads fenced and added lighting and walls then would it not be possible to prevent mob from entering the fixed areas?

Im not saying I want mob running around just querying as to why they are removed?

They were? always been mobs on the server except in the very distant past on a previous server when they didn't work.

They haven't been removed.

We just planned spawn and lit it well so that no mobs would spawn at the spawn area.

Hey FT i was downloading the plug-ins you have on the server and
was reading the world edit plug in and is says it is not compatible with
Essentials i know you have plsEssentials.

i don't know if the same issue is with that as with Essentials. Could this be one of the issues?

FrenchTart · 27 Feb 2011 at 15:30

Interesting. I'll read up on it.

I'm going to get a test server up and running in a bit I think. I can't be bothered doing teh various things that I'm supposed to be doing

Gundog48 · 27 Feb 2011 at 15:31

I used to run Essentials with WorldEdit, maybe it has only conflicted after an update?

yrthilian · 27 Feb 2011 at 15:46

it does seem to be a new thing since the plug-ins moved to the new version
downloading the files from the server not FT i am assuming they are finished being uploaded?

oh FT people seem to be happy restarting a new world. very little agents it so we gona start a new world?

FrenchTart · 27 Feb 2011 at 15:50

Files have completed to the-cript, darktech is still uploading (two different people - not sure who is who sorry)

FrenchTart · 27 Feb 2011 at 15:50

there's another backup I've just made as I took the server down so if you want that I can chuck it across too

Megahurtz400 · 27 Feb 2011 at 15:51

Are we on 1.3 yet?

yrthilian · 27 Feb 2011 at 15:57

Mp4 · 27 Feb 2011 at 15:57

we were on 1.3 but corruption of the map has been an issue.
we are thinking of a reset at the moment. also we are on a new
server belongs to FT

Frenchtart once we are up and running, I have noticed that donations will be used to upgrade server could we get some sort of counter showing whats needed, how much and how far until we get their?

Gundog48 · 27 Feb 2011 at 16:01

Oh, and I am up for starting a new town to be honest! I would love to help in a project like that and it should save FT an outrageous amount of time!

For backups, I see little reason in getting automated software. On my server, it was always a case of copy+pasting the current world folder into a backup folder every day, and if something went wrong you just copy and paste the backup world folder and rename it to 'World'. I know it's basic but it was always effective for me!

And in response to the donations thing, I run a review site so if you are in need of a particular component to upgrade the system I can try and get a sample to review then forward it on to you so you can pop it in the server! I may have to sell it to you but it would be at a considerably reduced price as I need the money to keep the site going!

It'll be pretty big and will be expanded as needed. The idea is just to stop things like Tefal's "expedition"

only way i could ever get it built, and it looks like now it's all ****ing wasted just like the last time :/

Fire oone, i marked the area before the server had even got up but by the time i'd got down to the expansion part there were already half a dozen basements dug though the thing so had to go restart an now the map's being wiped?

**** it tbh.
