Link?

[Waldo]

couldnt find the link, not on my pc atm, essentially its like this, can make as long as we want with repeater loops in the back.



thats my awesome black tripwire in the front

mob spawns activates the wire/redstone pushes it off. simple fast to build as well.

[Waldo]

anywhere in here would be super
say 800, -625 in the nether?

Next challenge: Make one that handles spiders

[Waldo]

it does I think....in theory the 2 high mobs will activate it and push off the spider ;D..havent had time to make a big one in creative

[crocos]

Don't spiders need 2x2 to spawn in?

[Waldo]

ohh yeah that explains my tests im just done lol

too many things in this damn game

[Waldo]

is there a nether fortress near the nzg portals?

[Waldo]

ahhh found one - thanks aleina

[Waldo]

Will that fix the screwed up cascare by the logbridge? I was going to come do it myself but :effort:.

[curses]

Not really sure what's going on in those screenshots. Is that the current build? I couldn't work out what to do.

Finished levelling that sand island under the bridge, might try and fix the pillars that are hanging in mid air now ...

[Waldo]

who has a chest full of string?

[Waldo]

so ive been going through the mines taking all the webs, anyone come across a spider spawner?

[Waldo]

thanks for the string whoever added those extra stacks

p.s. Cowboy, copy my tower ehehhehe

[Cowboy]

Oh, I asked Jimmy to do it for me as I haven't had time lately. He was going to do it next time you were both on. Guess he forgot.

Hit him up next time you see him.

[Waldo]

wouldnt mind a bit of some MCPVP hunger games one night if we can get like 6+ keen .

[ChocoFish]

Who's been working on the trap lately? Looks like it would have been quite a job to fill the surface of it. I assume it's the surface?

Me and CB have been real busy with work and baby prep.

[Waldo]

me, i built one that pretty much filled the innards, then read over the new spawning code, and destroyed it lols.....new one will be better once that current tower is duplicated x 8 or 9 towers

[Waldo]

with hopperes coming in 1.5 I wonder if I even need to wory about a colelction river and the trapdoors at the bottom, Ill just make a path of hoppers to move all the items along hmmmm.....interesting

Hoppers will make it a LOT faster than a water-stream, plus we can use them for auto-sorting. Mobs *should* splat just fine dropping onto hoppers, plus that will also deal with the current occasional glitch where a drop gets caught on the trapdoor.

-----

I've remade the crazy Nether-rail intersection as something a LOT simpler - it's a good chunk more reliable now, and less lag-sensitive. And IMO it looks better too

-----

The PvP arena near Spawn is nearly done - need to:

• Make a spectator area + maybe some form of roof
• Put up some rules for "Capture the Cap" and "Paintball"
• Make a few chests filled with wooden swords, bows and arrows, and coloured caps in red & light blue

then it's good to go. For a future improvement I might talk nicely to Cowboy to sort a couple of command-blocks to do that instead of chests that need filling. Hmm... MIGHT be willing to do that, but we'll see.

For something similar, I might make a smaller PvP arena for small teams or individuals - this one is a little large for say just two people

-----

Also thinking about adding Assualt or Hunger Games arenas, will need to talk nicely to Those That Control Regioning to get that working though... plus it might need some command-blocks to get working right. I know Cowboy and Jimmy don't LIKE command-block usage (we currently have zero on the server) so that is unlikely - might need to do this a different way.

[Cowboy]

I didn't actually know they'd been added to the game.

Finally might be able to do the spleef arena region to re-generate without a worldedit operator around.

Yep, been in since 1.4

Nice... not completely sure if they can do that, but worth a crack

Command Blocks come with come prerequisites for use:

• They're not available in the Creative inventory - /give <player_name> 137 to spawn one.
• You need to be in Creative mode
• You need to have the op role

[crocos]

Bah - edit time

Nice... not completely sure if they can do that, but worth a crack. You might be able to get a command-block to enter WorldEdit commands - doesn't look locked down AFAIK.


Oh yeah, another prerequisite: For Multiplayer, "enable-command-block" needs to be "true" in the server.properties file

[Cowboy]

Hmm nope, apparently not. Only has a few commands that can be accessed. Lame.

Might be able to do it a different way with command helper and just giving select people the ability to run a pre-set command via chat.

Also, no problem specifically with command block use. I just don't want it to become an automatic free stuff dispenser where people can fill up on bows/arrows/whatever for use outside the arena.

[crocos]

I figured out why WorldEdit won't work: WE works off player context, which is something you don't have with a command-block.

For the arenas we could just stick with filling the occasional chest. It works, just inconvenient as it requires an actual action.

If you've got Essentials installed, and want to set up a specific locked-down command (via Command Helper) for the world-edit, something like this *might* work in the command-block:
/sudo @p <command + params>

[crocos]

BTW: Server is updated to 1.5.1 if anyone's interested

[Waldo]

yay I can connect again, been playing on a mates little server with like 3 people.....i miss the ender farm soooo much

Eh? You could have grabbed an older version of the JAR
Minecraft 1.4.7

[Sliode]

Hey guys.

Disaster has struck! I logged in today after a hiatus, and found out that someone has completely obliterated the beach outside the front of my fort! It's far more damage than I think I can repair; the place is pretty much a bomb-struck wasteland.

I checked, and it seems that player "ocadash" did the damage on January 17. I'm not sure if he's a vandal, or just has no idea of landscape management.

Is there any way you guys (Cowboy or crocos) can undo the damage and reset the area back to how it was when the world was generated? I know that's kind of against the rules, but this is really far more damage than I know how to deal with : ( I'm not asking for free items, I'm just humbly requesting that you put things back to their natural state.

[A Corpse]

Where was it, near spawn? If so, probably just harvesting sand. Yes, some people have no sense of aesthetics, that's why I build my eyesores waaaaay out of the way.

About all I can do is 1 block-at-a-time as I'm (tempoarily) in Creative.

I don't have permissions to roll-back things. If Cowboy doesn't see this, I'll try getting hold of Jimmy or Kaskade to look at this tonight.

What location?

Also: ocdash wouldn't have been donig it to grief, just to harvest. You've been gone so long she probably thought it was abandoned

Hi there : ) Thanks for the reply! The reason I haven't been on lately is because my computer is bung, so I'm using an underpowered laptop that runs Minecraft poorly.

The damaged area is basically all between my fort and the seashore. I've checked the coordinates on the map, and I've found that it reaches as low as y: 52, and is contained in a recrangle with the following coordinates:

x: 2136 , z: -911
x: 2204 , z: -911
x: 2136 , z: -1052
x: 2204 , z: -1052

[mpx]

Do people still play this, and if so, what server?

[Lightspeed]

Uh, you need distraction from anxiety, not your entire life.
