*** Official OcUK Minecraft Server - Discussion and Rules ***

Currently we are limiting the size of the live world i think it is 500 chunks radius
myself and punky will do a run around to pre render the map when it does go live. We understand the concern of the fugly chunks.

The map may get a review at that stage but we will discuss it with all players first before doing anything.

is there not a way to pre-generate the whole map before you make it live so you don't have to waste your time "running around" to generate it on the fly and end up with something that you may not even use?

no as already mentioned we cant do this
because of mystcraft worlds.

because of the map size limit myself and punky will easly have the map covered for generation. also the main world is not as large as it used to be. this will help when players explaore. we will be able to see where is not generated well before we move to 1.3.2

for us on the live world we have this in mind and we have how we are going to work with it in place
 
Congratulations on all the hard work you have all put in to get this up and running it is appreciated and i will be getting plenty of use from it :D

I appear to have lost my covetted screenshots during a move does anyone by any chance have any pics of the devastation caused by the nuclear reactor explosion a week or so ago?

...... pssst link to new launcher not working :)
 
Link will work now :D

hmm i dont know if i have any images from that unfortunate nuclear meltdown i
will have to check my other system when i get home.
 
Cheers !! a new build n format should be back up and running later this evening and i will be making a donation in acknowledgement of all the hard work thats been put in - yes you are quite right i am brown noseing it but it might also help to assure my basement gets moved when the moving starts :o;)
 
Agreed, all the work done for this has not gone unnoticed. Thanks to all the admins for their hard work!!!
Look forward to seeing you all at somepoint tonight when I get on!
 
we have discoverd a bit of an anoying issue.
we are working to resolve it right now but anyone that does join
may fine they will get kicked from server when useing the mystcraft portals
we are putting a fix in place so hopefully it wont be too anoying for long.
 
I haven't been paying attention to things for a month or two, but jumped on when I got the announcement email today.
All looks good, just captured some bees :D
 
Welcome back toString :)

The kick on teleport issue should be resolved shortly (it's already partially sorted).

Other testing looks promising and I've managed to pre-generate the main LinkTart/overworld world with a border of 1000. This is quite small to start with but we will either increase this as needed or add additional worlds.
 
Couple of points:

- After that last restart FT, I get kicked for moving too fast when going into the mining world portal and also the neather one, it didnt happen on the overworld one though..
- There's a few unlocked chests about with valuable stuff in, I assume admin stuff.. around the landing zone and overworld.
- Is /back supposed to be enabled? I.e. you die, type /back, get your stuff and carry on as before?
- Whats with the massive obsidian penis structures around the mining world spawn area?
- I'm not sure what the use of the money /balance is? But it seems you can effectively make infinite money selling items from /kit. i.e. starting sword is $40.
- I think disabling /world might be a good idea, it seems to teleport you to random places at the edge of the map?

Yrth needs to finish fixing this when he gets back. Should be completely sorted then.

I've mentioned this to yrth.

- Is /back supposed to be enabled? I.e. you die, type /back, get your stuff and carry on as before?

Definitely not. I'll see about disabling it.

- Whats with the massive obsidian penis structures around the mining world spawn area?

Yeah, I'm not sure about these big erections everywhere...

- I'm not sure what the use of the money /balance is? But it seems you can effectively make infinite money selling items from /kit. i.e. starting sword is $40.

Economy stuff should be disabled tbh. Must have been missed when we had to move to a new plugin for teleporting.

- I think disabling /world might be a good idea, it seems to teleport you to random places at the edge of the map?

Agreed. Should be disabled.



For all of the above I'll try to have a very quick look now before I head home from work.
 
the obsidian towers are oblisks a mystcraft thing didnt know it was going to make a tone of them though. they are not an issue to be hinest and with mine worlds getting regend every so often the next regen will not have them :D

have added in the warp points to fix the getting kicked issue will tidy them up more when i get home.

I've just downloaded the 3.2 client after reading Yrths info thing. Wanted to have a look at the chunk loaders but when I tried to view the recipe in NEI my client broke (froze on a loading screen minus any text)

Not sure if it's just me but the Thermal Monitor still kills/corrupts my SP worlds.
 
Is there any chance of making this less confusing for noob players like me ?

I log on, I'm in a village thing, a purple portal takes me to hell, a blue water thing takes me to 'Landing zone'

I then have to (pointlessly ?) traipse right around a big hall to find more blue water things:

"Overworld"
"Mining World 51"
"The Nether"
"The End"

Going into Overworld takes me back to the village, Mining World 51 is I gather some mining world.



I'm guessing that this village thing I log into is 'Spawn' and I'm supposed to head out from here somewhere to build stuff ?



Q.
How do I get back to the world I was in a few weeks ago to pick up my chests ?
Can 'Landing Zone' be made a bit less epic in scale please, I don't get why I have to walk so far :(


Ta :)

Even I can't figure what the hell to do :/ Just gonna wait until builds are copied across then try again and see if I can get back into it, looking unlikely at the moment. :p

Sorry to say, you don't.

That map is no more. There was a period we could request build moves but had to provide coordinates, as you can't get on the map you can't do that now.
