I'm not sure I'll be using the shop really. I feel like it's not very 'vanilla' and in some ways makes the game easier than it should be.

It won't make it easy with the right pricing. It's a substitute for those who are struggling to find the materials they need e.g. diamond, redstone and are willing to sell their other materials for credits, and then use those credits to buy the stuff they need.

It's really not going to be as simple as trading a couple of stone blocks for some diamond.

Well i think gars was hoping people would use the shop to start and for items they really need but mostly the mod would be used for inter player trading.

It's been o n the server for a while rendered a bit pointless by duping but things weren't exactly cheap.

plus you need the shop there to maintain a steady income of money to pay for services/player trades.
 
Still easier than finding it yourself :D From a personal point of view I'm going to try and get by without using it, hopefully wont be tempted!

2 questions...

1. How far back does /bbhere go? i.e. if you're away for a few days would it be able to look back and find out why your house was rubble?

2. Has the 'drop your pickaxe and bring it back to 100%' bug been fixed now in SMP?
 
well last time gars had it set up so you couldn't sell cobble/dirt/sand to the shop (iirc his words where "I knew you guys would strip the world clean to make a few ocuk's" :p) so they're more for player sale. or very low value.

It's more for the high end stuff and blocks we can't get.

Eg you could sell a load of your gold to buy nether stone to make a fire pit or for looks or lightstone for underwater lighting etc which you couldn't get yourself.

But you might get a better price on gold selling it to someone trying to build boosters for thier cart system than the shop is offering etc. (shop buys for less than it sells)
 
of course it will take a fair while to gather enough gunpowder to make that much tnt :p, and we'll have to make a big ugly mob tower somewhere out the way :p
 
Right so - when server hits beta, and garsands has everything sorted out, are we going to follow vince's idea? I've already been looking at inspiration for a small house and have found a few things. After we get the spawn sorted... then your project Tefal? :D
 
Well I was going to start making the stairs tunnel while you lot cleared land, so you'd have a crap load of cobble stone for your walls/halfstone paving and you'd have the wood to turn it to smooth stone and the dirt/sand to fill the gap and some wood for me to make torches/equipment :p
 
I'm going to be concentrating on rail networks in the beginning so I'll probably bugger off a long way from spawn so I can farm Iron and Gold without affecting the spawn build too much.
 
Just got in form work, I will read all the posts later.

What I do need tonight is the location of where the new spawn is to be placed.
So who ever is in charge of that job can you please give me the coordinates X Y Z numbers not including the decimal point so I can set it, use /getpos
Also how big do you want this marked off zone around the spawn where only aproved buildings can be built ?
How many blocks out from the spawn ? you many have to find a spawn site then count the blocks out to find out.
Thanks

Perhaps we could get a list of folks up for spending the next few minecraft months hardly seeing the sky? :p

i guess i'll take that role, spawn itself, including walls, will be a 119x119 square, if we could have 50 blocks all around (so 219x219) as an 'approved only' area then that'll help keep the sky around spawn free of clutter.

if anyone already knows of a flattish area which would be big enough to accommodate at least the 119x119 base city area (doesn't really matter if the 50 block restricted zone is over the sea) then feel free to suggest it, otherwise gars if no one has an area to suggest already then i'll have picked one before tomorrow (sorry it cant be any quicker but i've got dinner to cook and eat, photos of work christmas do to upload and i need to do the fix to let me on to the server!)
