Is there an easy way to check whether what you're building is in one chunk or across two or more?

There is an option in the mini map settings to display. Can't remember what it is as am not in game

 

[yrthilian]

for the mini map

press .
then goto surface option i think it is called
then second last option show grid

each section is a chunk

Pressing the "F3" button opens the Debug screen which shows the player's X, Y, and Z coordinates. These coordinates will change as the player moves around. X and Z coordinates that are divisible by 16 represent the boundaries between chunks. EG: (96, -32) is a corner where four chunks meet. One of those chunks is between X coordinates 80 to 96 and Z coordinates -48 to -32. Another one is between X coordinates 96 to 112 and Z coordinates -32 to -16, and so on. When either X or Z crosses a multiple of 16, the player is moving across chunks.

lol scotty that is to much work when the mini map can just show you in 3/4 clicks and is always on

Server Downtime

If all goes well (i.e. I have time in work) I will be performing a major software update on the server tomorrow. This will probably mean ~6 hours of downtime (could be a lot more or a lot less).

When I do this I will set up a temporary server and post the address here as the linktart site will be down whilst I do the upgrade work.

 

[Mat]

Is it likely that we will need to update anything our end?

 

[sunlitsix]

I love a good map wipe.

 

[FrenchTart]

No need to update anything and no map wipe

Why do you need to know, out of interest? I heard Andy talking about building something over a chunk border too.

 

[dirtychinchilla]

Server seems to have gone down...

Edit: it's fine dw, couldn't get on for a bit though!

thought I'd share what I saw after 20min of Tekkit Launcher not letting me in...

Where did you find the elusive PVC block?!

i believe players want to know so they can minimise the chunck they are useing when making quaries and pipes to and from them. if a chunk unloads the pipes leek well the BC ones do and the pnumatic ones dont.

that looks to be a texturepack issues?

It has been really slow and unreliable for me too.

I logged out, closed MC and relaunched Tekkit and it worked fine. God knows thou, something I've never seen before

The launcher has caused me to quit the game.
