Updated anti-cheat
Removed sleep plugin as it was pointless
Sadly I had to allow people to say "yes" in chat again, instead of replacing it with "aye" due to the crew plugin needing a "yes" to leave a crew 
Entities can now move on Brigs & Brigs are 2.5x faster in Cruise and 2x in maneuver. (Villagers, Cows, pigs, horses etc)
I have only updated brigs for now as a small trial/test just incase something bad happens! Get testing and report back to #🚢ships
Updated Anti-cheat
Added a backend plugin to sync eco to a database for something i'm working on.
Created a new test server from scratch! Extremely basic and essentials only for test purposes, but we're able to test properly again! /server test and use /server survival to get home. At present testing Halloween crate!
Added #deleted-channel for our yearly Xmas calendar for you to request Items be part of the calendar (We have never had suggestions like this before, it usually is just staff that pick them!)
Im looking for #🗄âhelp_wanted_archive for people to build some pirate themed 1vs1 arenas, this will be a very easy arena to get us started and testing on a PVP server without having to make something massive and we can get testing quickly. Please read the #🗄âhelp_wanted_archive channel.
@calliemav is back! With a vengeance already starting on some custom mobs! Please post Pirate/Halloween Mob suggestions in #🔭suggestions_chat
Updated OS/Java
Updated Bungee server
Updated Anti-Cheat
Updated formatting on halloween crate items on test server.
Tweaked drop rates, 5 star items should now drop much more frequently.
Changed quantities of some items given when won.
Potions and brews are still broken and will not drop. Arrows are acting weirdly. Testing is appreciated, you can help at /server test
Removed :ikillu: emoji and added : halloween : for the Halloween season
Gods seems to have fixed the issues regarding shop owners being offline and not getting money - please TEST.
Gods and I figured out the issues with the brews in the halloween crates. We'd appreciate if you go and test em again -> /server test
Tweaked drop rate of 5 star items
Removed fire aspect III from axe
Removed the Eco MySQL sync plugin, as it was causing trouble with money being sent to offline players, those that abused this got their balances wiped and some severe punishments for stealing money from pirates.
Halloween Crate is now live! Massive thanks to @xeronthecat to making Halloween Crate 2019!
CalypsosCoffer Keys are being auto dropped to a random person online every 30 mins! be in it to win it! you just need to be online to be in for a chance to have a free key dropped!
Halloween Donate sale! its been ages since we had a coupon! The same as every year 15% off all of /donate https://piratemc.com/donate/ with coupon code slimysailor
CalypsosCoffer Keys now Avalible in /donate 10 x CalypsosCoffer for $4.99! Will only last for Halloween! Use them while you can! (were a little late this year!)
CalypsosCoffer Keys Added to vote crate! /vote for a chance to win a CalypsosCoffer key in our vote crate!
I did a mass key drop to everyone online when this went live! If I get time Thursday (Halloween) I will do the same!
âš The CalypsosCoffer crate displays some times wrong on items, some 15 second lingering potions might be 4 mins! Times are also not displayed properly on the item, I have added it to their lore (this is Minecrafts fault!) and the custom Arrows also say no effect but they do! (God dammit Mojang!) 
Updated AntiCheat & Chat plugin
Discount code slimysailor should now be working, sorry about that guys and galls
Updated Analytics plugin
Added Custom Mobs Plugin & Dependancies, I wonder what this could be for! 
Updated PVP Tag plugin
Pirates now get untagged when their enemy dies
updated worldedit and asynchronous worldedit plugins on both survival and creative, this should hopefully stop the oddities and visual glitches it was causing when used.
Did some big event prep work which is now moved over, stay tuned!
updated anti cheat again!
/warp halloween IS NOW LIVE! PvP is OFF! So its players vs custom mobs! There are 7 Custom mobs and 2 Custom Bosses! Make sure you come prepared!
Website - Added Halloween logo and banner!
I have fully retired our old Dedicated servers from Canada, these have served us amazingly over the years, so F's in chat to these machines that will actually be removed from the data centre now as they were legacy machines. 
Teamspeak server was hosted on our old main Dedi recently, I've not seen any activity on it so will not be creating a new TS server unless there is a request from a lot of players to keep it, most people that were active on it have just moved to using Discord Voice Chat, F's in Chat for Teamspeak.
Rest in spaghetti never forgetti
Major Wiki Update I did a mammoth update to the Wiki, I updated the entire core MediaWiki 2 whole versions, which means I had to update ALL the plugins for it, Emptied the cache (You will have to log in again) but most importantly by doing all the upgrades I was able to add a WYSIWYG Editor, this means you edit the Wiki pages like you are using word! No need to deal with code! (Code is still available to edit manually)
This will make editing 90% of pages 100% easier being able to just select and format text/images! This means anyone can easily edit Wiki pages now!
âš The old WikiEditor will still be shown
âš When editing a page, give it a few seconds to load the new editor
âš Pages with complex templates will not display these templates nice at all, you will need to edit these as code still (use the code button)
As this is an ENTIRE MediaWiki upgrade over 2 major versions there may be bugs, do images still upload etc? Report issues to #deleted-channel
https://wiki.piratemc.com/
Wiki Update - Player Template Ive spent the last few days learning how to make custom templates for MediaWiki (holy hell what a learning curve) There is a terrible copy/paste "Info box" that people use, that doesn't work in the editor, doesn't work on mobile and displays weird.
I created a player template that auto gets your skin from UUID and Auto fills out Punishment & Stats URLS, and its simpler, works on mobile and in the editor.
If you want more parameters post in #🔭archived-suggestions
Example (Info box on the right) https://wiki.piratemc.com/GodsDead
Example 2 (Without a custom image) https://wiki.piratemc.com/Iamthereaper89
âšī¸ If people use this to update their profiles/the wiki about players I will create one for crews too!
âšī¸ Your Skin will be pulled automatically and displayed if you fill in the UUID section, OR you can set your own image.
Wiki Code
{{Infobox
|title = GodsDead
|image = GodsDead 3D.png
|uuid = 93e8b4dc-672b-41c6-bb75-e68960d60184
|joined = Sep 2012
|rank = Admiral
|crew = [[Cove]]
|history = GodsDead
}}
Updated Anti-cheat & Analytics plugins
Please welcome @Taulov as full time commodore! Trail is up!
Wiki got some navigation! I figured out how to add some navigation to special pages on the wiki to find things easier!
Wiki FAQ Updated please make sure to add any frequently asked questions/answers to this page
https://wiki.piratemc.com/FAQ 
Creative Changelogs
Updated plots plugin
Put on a whole new version of the ships plugin that's slightly different to the survival version that's 1.14 capable to test it out! thanks @eirikh1996
Added ships plot plugin thanks @eirikh1996
Removed the custom generated creative world, it didn't get used at all!
âšī¸ I will need to update all the ship perms before they are usable (its getting late here)
â Did anyone make a new spawn for Creative asked in #🗄âhelp_wanted_archive I'm certain some people started versions! (It just needs to be simple, atm we have nothing!)
Found an obscure backend issue with backups that I've fixed.
Creative Changelogs
Added permissions for all ships on Creative! You can now build and sail ships on creative!
Changed the ship plugin to the one we use on the main Survival as the new version I was testing has issues.
Gave everyone /gm 1 and /gm 0 on Creative to toggle if you are for some reason put into survival (or to test things as survival)
Fixed a ton of Craftsman perm issues that was still set to the hub server instead of creative
New sea world on Creative! this is currently generating and will take quite a few hours, its a flatland but its sea with a proper sea bed (to create islands and test ships, and with gm 0 now you can test a lot more!) So at present this is just generating before I can make it into plots!
https://cmap.piratemc.com/?worldname=ocean&mapname=surface&zoom=1&x=-273&y=64&z=77
Forums seem to be fixed!
So the forum system I used had a big update apparently which broke the forums, I've been playing around and think i've fixed them all I can tell they have added for this "big update" that's like a 4 year update is adding per-forum mods, who wants to moderate specific forums?
https://piratemc.com/view/latest-topics/
Fixed Forums CSS to not have writing for ants.
Updated Main OS/database software
Removed Books opening via NPC's the developer thought it was a good idea to put in code that automatically shuts down the server when it finds an update, auto downloads the updated plugin to the server, then he also forgot to remove the old plugin as part of his grand scheme to "auto update" which stops the sever booting up again! In essence, he built in a kill switch to auto stop 100's of servers and stop any of them coming up again! What a twat!
Changed the formatting for Crew/Ally chat for those people that were spamming with &k in their ranks, it should only display their Crew Ranks in that format now. Since there is no filter/perms for this formatting these (yet) people that use this will have their crew rank removed/removed from the crew they are in. Feel free to blame these people for the formatting that will be removed from your custom ranks for crews.
Updated the Anti-cheat 3 versions.
Removing everything Halloween today only a few days to December!
Added new banner to website about the Discord #🎉âgiveaway-events #📢âannouncements
renewed all SSL certs for maps and other sub domains. (Maps back up)
It's supposed to auto renew itself, not sure why it didn't!
Created all the kits, script & permissions for PirateCraft advent calendar 2019 see #📢âannouncements
Updated Anticheat, Added Citizens opening books again (No auto updater!), Updated XPBoost plugin, Updated Analytics plugin, Updated our custom made Pirate Utilities.
Updated PVP Tag plugin
Added /newbie command to check time left and /newbie disable to disable protection before time.
Accidently stopped the main production server trying to stop the test server while i'm doing test, took the opportunity to update the Discord plugin
Updated the Chat plugin as the absolute genius put in a hard dependency for the Discord plugin, which means it breaks the plugin entirely. Chat plugin updated.
Edit: the SUPER genius broke Private messaging, this is Trump Genius here, its been reported waiting for him to even read the bug report.
Changed emoji 'name' of 
and 
to reflect feedback from Gods and I better in #🔭archived-suggestions channel. They were 'negative' and 'added' previously, which caused confusion, and are now 'nope no thanks' and 'will look into it' respectfully. This means we can give you guys quicker feedback on suggestions, and avoid confusion.
Updated Anti-cheat
Updated Bungee-Chat plugin in hope of fixing Private messages (it didn't work).
Updated Bungee server
Via @atalantaa in #🔭archived-suggestions enabled anti-caps filter in Ally chat/Crew chat/Msg/Me/mail (Did I miss any?).
Some progress on /server play (whitelisted)
Picked rando spawn from planet Minecraft (So we can get going, we can build something later)
Added regions, setup messages, setup MOTD, setup Databases, Added void respawn, Added void generation, Cross server chat, Cross server ranks.
I will need help with arenas still when it comes time to make them working, I will be using Petals from #🔭archived-suggestions but its not Pirate themed, so please post more arenas into #🔭archived-suggestions once you have made them on Creative.
Game modes available for Arena Creation:
Duels (1v1), 2v2, Party vs Party, Party Split and Party FFA, Party vs Bots, Replays
Create any ladder (build, combo, spleef, bedwars, skywars, horse, parkour, only bow damage, disable hunger and regen for UHC kits)
Fully automatic events: 1v1 Tournament, Sumo, Last Man Standing (FFA Event), King of the hill (KOTH) and Juggernaut (1 vs everyone else)
FFA arenas
âšī¸ Without arenas to test these in, these game modes will not exist! YOU need to create the Pirate themed arenas in Creative! You will get credit! The PirateCraft team will be working on our own Game areans that will be unique to the Minecraft server world in general, but only once we have the basics up and running/tested.
âšī¸ There is no ETA, its when I can find time to work on things, I will release an alpha pre-test to a small whitelist of people when im ready (watch announcements/changelogs)
Started color coordinating the /motd on each server to the same colors I have in the server list for each server, Test server & Play server now have updated /MOTD
Removed the terrible tab formatting on Test/Play servers.
Lots of little things on /server Play like setting up Portal to get back to Survival/Holograms.
Been working with @Creeprr to get bugs ironed out on the Custom Crew score plugin I teased ages ago so we can get that live! Were close to release! Been testing that today too, this is based on an algorithm by @xeronthecat to give each crew its own score.
The Discord #🎉âgiveaway-events ended and I gave out the Captain rank to the winners
Removed Discord Giveaway banner from website
Survival /motd re-formatted.
Changed color scheme to match the server list Yellow/Orange, Fixed overlapping arrow at bottom, Added Forum/News (for blogs) instead of just an arrow to show where the contents coming from (discord later), Made clicking the crew profile button instant instead of "suggesting" the command.
Un-stickied a ton of old forum posts so they are no longer in motd.
Via @cysteen in #🔭archived-suggestions made /me just white italics, I have the option to have different formatted /me in the future based on permission (Maybe a VIP custom me) to stop the spam from the purple as it were.
Also hovering over /me messages tells the user what/how these messages are. 
Updated Anti-cheat & PVP tag plugin
PMs /msg /m /tell /pm /t /w /whisper is now fixed, not sure why it took them so long to fix it, Chat plugin updated.
Analytics updated, Anti-Cheat updated.
Removed Discord giveaway missive
âšī¸ GodsDeads Daily TIP: You can tag someone in the middle of a sentence by using the @ symbol, So you can say hi @xeronthecat and it will tag them in chat and ping a sound! try it out (Just like discord!)
Updated 1.13-1.15 Roadmap as 1.15 is coming out today.
https://piratemc.com/topic/piratecraft-roadmap-to-minecraft-1-13/
Added 1.15 Protocol hack to Survival/Creative/Test 1.12.2 servers so 1.15 clients can connect to the 1.12.2 server.
Updated bungee server for 1.15
Spent days compiling a list of Changelogs into a Changelog roundup from August to December 2019, I tried to abbreviate as much as possible (I really need to keep these to monthly roundups that took way too long)
Please read/share as you most likely have missed something that we now have!
/motd auto updated with new blog post, encourage people to click it and read the changes so everyone is caught up!
https://piratemc.com/2019/12/11/changelog-roundup-from-august-to-december-2019/ 
Fixed the /motd on /server creative to not have the survival motd (Must have overwritten it) Colors match the creative server in the server list now creative.piratemc.com
âšī¸ GodsDeads Daily Tip You can connect to the PirateCraft servers directly from the server list, each one has its own direct URL and tells you who's on which one! We have:
mc.piratemc.com - Main Server IP for everything
survival.piratemc.com - Bypass if you were on another server and want to go directly back to survival
creative.piratemc.com - Go directly to the creative server without going through survival
play.piratemc.com - Go Directly to the games/PvP server without going through survival
test.piratemc.com - Go Directly to the test server without going through survival
From any server you can run /travel to get a GUI to click for travel between server or use /server for direct command to move.
Updated chat plugin & bungee counterpart - now ignores vanished players from PM
Re-fixed @Builder & @Build Leader permissions on creative.
Updated Protocol hack on all servers
Minor website change, Added padding to all blog post content & headings, added a bigger line-height for all list items. Also updated the error message for when the online user widget cannot connect to the server, turns out some firewalls block it!
Updated xmas crate on test server, please test - you get a sneak peak of the rewards afterall 
Updated Anti-Cheat and XPBoost plugin
My regular: disabled NPC showing for Anti-cheat & Disabled AC Chat filter (every time I update it overwrites my changes)
Updated Protocol hack to allow 1.15.1 clients to connect to our 1.12.2 servers.
Updated Bungee server for 1.15.1 Clients to connect to the 1.12.2 server in conjunction with our Protocol hack
Updated OS/Database server
Updated Tebex(BuyCraft)/Jump Pads/Chat/Anti Cheat/Discord/Bottle EXP/Analytics plugins
Added Custom mobs plugin and new custom item plugin to go with it and Disguises plugin. (I wonder what this could be! 
)
Xmas 2019 went live, see #📢âannouncements for details
Added Comet Crate see #📢âannouncements
Added Comet Crate key to Vote chest
Made the Comet Key drop every 30m to someone random online
Added the Comet key to the online store, 10x for $4.99 http://donate.piratemc.com/checkout/packages/add/3661280/single
New Giveaway! 15x Comet Crate keys to be picked for 3 people on Christmas Day! enter now just react to the #🎉âgiveaway-events Channel
Crew of the Year poll (see #📢âannouncements channel), has been amended to allow you to pick as many crews as you like for all questions. All questions are very close right now, so I invite you to go and pick a few more options!
We'll be using this : gift : emoji to show any changes relating to the xmas event in this channel, similar to halloween - just to keep it all organised.
Drop rate of top xmas items buffed over xmas days
Xmas crate updated: fixed formatting, fixed bugged head, buffed 5 star drop rate over xmas.
Mostly testing today with @cysteen Go check out the 4 cool doors on /server test completely new plugin for big animated doors/portcullis/sliding door and drawbridges I've been meaning to test for years, we figured since they use falling blocks when moving they could be used as instant traps for floors so sadly, may not end up being available to full server and just builders, they are absolutely epic though, For those that can't here's a video I made for you:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4TgZ8_AoUTM&feature=youtu.be
They also support live sound by adding this resource pack on top of your existing resource pack! https://www.dropbox.com/s/0q6h8jkfjqrn1tp/BigDoorsResourcePack.zip?dl=1
Also been testing editing armour stands for a contributor perk, seems to respect land claims! found 1 issue and 1 bug, so once the bugs fixed we should hopefully be able to push this live. You can also see these in the video.
Testing a whole new jail system on /server test that has boss bar timer for how long you have left, holograms for people outside the jail to see time left, set a reason, a no escape barrier, position to teleport when finishes, much clearer.
We have a jail yourself button on /server test for 1 min to see what jails like! haha I have also setup one of the cool sliding doors on the jail that someone can control! Lets remake the jails we have?
That #🔭archived-suggestions we had to use the spawn ship floating box would actually work with this jail system. 
ended the poll asking how many people joined before 1.8 /poll results joined for those interested. Turns out, I still have my 1.7.10 files! So I can just compare to current active players! Tldr, I will need to make a script to update peoples stats when I move to 1.13+ with a new stats and auto ranking system.
Think I fixed the /warp cove spawn dropping people into water, put some full blocks under it and moved it.
There is a Treasure chest on the beach at /warp cove with some goodies to celebrate entering 2020!
Creative Fixed not being able to /gamemode creative on creative, alias include eecreative, creativemode, ecreativemode, gmc, gms, esurvival, survivalmode, esurvivalmode and I'm personally a fan of /gm 1 and /gm 0
Creative Hopefully people spawn in the correct world when they first join now! People were still going to hub! If you are stuck in the hub please use /spawn to get to the Creative world.
Creative Hopefully fixed when you join you are now in Creative mode and not survival, not sure why this changed! What a pain in the bum, that means people have been joining creative in survival mode and nobody reported it!
Creative WHOLE NEW SEA WORLD! There is a whole new sea world you can /plot claim in and build what you want! Ships work! build and test ships! build tropical islands!
You can get here by going to /spawn and right clicking the Sea world NPC or you can use /sea or /ocean you can always get back with /spawn
Ships are blocked when you cruise to the edge of your plot, but there seems to be a bug where if you cruise half your ship may end up in the next plot.. I will report!
There are no paths on the sea world, so you will have to use /plot info to help you find the edges of your claim, remember you can merge plots for more space!
Map: https://cmap.piratemc.com/?worldname=ocean&mapname=surface&zoom=0&x=603&y=64&z=-42
Creative Removed the old NPC text about the custom biome world, that's long gone!
Updated missives, removed some old ones, changed their timings there shown, and added BOTM Jan 2020 missive.
Removed "shark pit" from the cove where you could enter the region and not exit (It was an old jail with a shark in it)
Did a /thaw for the snow at Market, builders will need to manually remove the rest of the snow left.
Reduced the amount of Skeleton horses allowed per chunk from 10 to 3, as there are trillions of them everywhere.
Added Auction 12 now live use /auc in-game, see #📢âannouncements for spoiler of whats inside!
Creative Fixed NPCs actually being clickable on Creative plots thanks for the report @stevenking169
@Builder & @Build Leader and above now have permission to create those amazing doors I showed off on /server test on the Creative server!
Check the #builder chat for Commands/Videos on how to use and limits.
I really want to get this pushed out live to everyone, but with the doors being classed as dropping sand when animated it means they can be used for instant floor traps, starting small with builders on creative first! maybe they will show you what they can come up with on creative? I will be looking forward to seeing them in #📷âmedia
Creative re-gave permission to access the hub world, and added signs/pressure plates to tell people to use /spawn to get to the main creative.
Still have a few lost souls stuck wandering around the hub world not knowing what's what! 
Updated Anti-Cheat which has re-written a lot of speed checks & has too many changes to list.
Updated Entity Manager & Crates plugins
Changed the /server selector message to remove the writing about Creative being on Hub, will take effect next reboot.
Via #🔭archived-suggestions @cysteen Removed the Chat replacement for "gonna" to "Going to", so you can now have your common chat, the only other words left are now:
dis, u, dia, wb, ty, ez, np, np!, oldman, romich, omg, hello
If you have any suggestions for words that need replacing or removing from the list, please post in #🔭archived-suggestions (Not removing yours @romich02 ) 
@iwanidev Updated the PirateCraft resource pack for 1.13-1.14+
With Shanties https://github.com/FrozenBeard/PirateCraftRP/raw/master/PMC-Shanties-1.13-1.14.zip
Without Shanties https://github.com/FrozenBeard/PirateCraftRP/blob/master/PMC-1.13-1.14.zip
Repo https://github.com/FrozenBeard/PirateCraftRP 
Fixed signs working on cannons again! (was being blocked by Chat plugin) Thanks for the report @eirikh1996 and thanks for testing @Deleted User
Updated Anti-cheat configs to not broadcast when a players kicked for cheating, hide NPCS in checks and disabled its Chat spam protection as we already do this, seem to have to redo these all every time I update it!
Updated the EssentialsX suite of plugins, I cant see any player related changes, ping me if you notice anything in #ââgeneral
Removed Custom Mobs/Custom Item plugin from Xmas Event & removed Disguise plugin.
Updated Anti-cheat
Updated Ender pearl cooldown plugin (it reset its configs)
The configs updated, so it put us back to the default 30s cooldown temporarily, there is no reload for the plugin in-game so will have to wait until next reboot, unless it updates itself.
/stats/ is now fixed and showing again, turns out its either the Custom mobs plugin/Custom item plugin/Disguise plugin just stopping it displaying the stats in-game, this is vital I got this working for our next set of tests!
Updated Chat plugin
Updated Regen scripts to reset Xmas world and send out messages to everyone! XMAS world is now lootable with PVP off, tomorrow this changes! PvP Will be ON! So get in your Free looting now! /warp xmas /warp xmas2 /warp xmas3
Stopped key drops for the Xmas Crate, use your Xmas crate keys now! The chest will be removed soon!
Changed every text and voice chat on discord to verified only. Now only verified people can send messages in them. If you haven't verified yourself yet check out the #deleted-channel channel and follow its instructions.
Added PirateScore plugin made for us by @Creeprr see #📢âannouncements
A website page and/or blog post will be made soon about the PirateScore plugin going over it in a little more detail. All you need to know is what Gods said: Members, KDR, Number of allies, (in)activity, claimblocks, and money, will affect the score, but in different ways. A well rounded crew will do far better than one that specializes! Good luck!
Manually did a Xmas reset just now, and changed the reset to happen twice a day like last year 12:00GMT and 00:00GMT, this means I can end the event faster! Don't expect this world to stay resetting for long! I'm thinking about shutting it down Monday (tomorrow) from resetting.
I created a little test NPC at /warp cove to replace the Wood Shop, he Buys/Sells using a GUI and at present only sells/buys Dark Oak Logs, Since I made him myself using an assortment of plugins i'm a bit wary that he can be broken/gamed, so if you can find a way to cheat him out of money ping me and ill give you a big fat bounty! oioi!
I wanted to learn to do it the hard way so I can make more complex NPCS that sell/buy things later, this one actually has a custom permission node im checking for, but its set to global while hes in testing at present, means later on I can limit him to Deckhands/Cadets, that's what that Wood shops really for.
I want to have some Traders around the warps to buy Horses/Donkeys for people to buy some travel, nice and simple, just have to make sure it works fine first! #deleted-channel if something breaks with him, and PM me directly if you find a way to exploit him!
edit: Wouldnt mind moving all server based things to NPCS so people know how/where to find them, makes life easier. Ship Shop NPC, Cannons NPC etc. 
Updated Anti-cheat
Retired the Xmas world for another year and stopped the reset script. It run for longer than expected! I hope your plundering went well.
Removed Quests until we have some ideas written up for quests #🔭archived-suggestions for quest ideas.
Updated Anti-cheat again!
Updated Jump Pads to fix console spam from removing xmas world.
Hopefully fixed the GeoIP database working for player locations.
Verified people can now read the #ââgeneral again, little woopsie happened with perms? If you cant see/post in any more channels as verified please #deleted-channel @Markusi13 changed them recently
Removed general_unverified channel. Renamed general_verified to general.
Added ban plugin to the test server (Whoops) Forgot that one haha! Saw a few banned players directly joining to use the cross-server chat!
Updated Essentials suite of plugins & Changed the config for GeoIP.
Last night me and @Deleted User were testing the PvP plugin for the new /server Play / play.piratemc.com mini-games server, it seems to be working, theres a hell of a lot of quality of life changes to be made and it will be a process, but it works, what this means, is we need Pirate themed/Caribbean/Medieval/Steampunk (No modern designs, it wont fit with the server) arenas, We can use anything built anywhere now, so It can be on Survival or creative for us to copy over to play, please can you post a screenshot of your base/arena you think would make a good mini-game to #🔭archived-suggestions with a TPPOS, this also means you could get something copied from Survival to Creative to edit it to work for a PvP mini game.
I also need someone to tell me if big-brand mini-game servers have an arena per world, or if they just have one big void they put all arenas in one world (I have no idea).
I will be brining back the old FFA PvP arena we had already as there is a backup on the Creative as it was super noice.
Once we have a bunch of arenas and i'm at a point where im happy to open to some alpha testing doors will open to a whitelisted group to give feedback first.
Alternatively if you have seen something in the world you think looks awesome to fight in, post that! or from the live map!
Also we can use maps from places like planetminecraft, we can adapt/give credit, just be awesome if everything was built by the community.
Primary goal is to just have a safe space to PvP with kits, then later on create some super unqiue mini-games.
Weekend was spent figuring out and putting together the PvP server (/server play) still pre-alpha so whitelisted, its going to be a while yet until its out for testing, so many changes no point me listing them all. Hopefully you wont have to use the test server for small duels then 
Started tracking explosions with coreprotect to find out who griefed areas.
Updated Chat plugin & NPC plugin
Removed NPC command plugin as Its now built into NPC plugin
Changed Staff inventory viewing plugin
Updated the world based inventory plugin to the latest legacy version
Added admin shop plugin
Support for a new ship shop where a ship is stored in a chest you can place, also so I can have a new wood shop with permissions and to sell horses etc at NESW warps.
Added plugin to buy pre-made ships
It will take quite a few hours of setup for me to create the ships as chests to place down and will require some testers to see how they place, it took quite a bit of effort for me to figure out how to place them when testing, so this is mostly prep for when I have time to do it.
/warp south NPC shop re-made, you can now buy a Tamed horse with saddle as an Egg from "Stockman" stockman will in time sell Cattle at all warps and more types of livestock!
Current price is £200 in-game cash, this can change at any point.
Changed warp south to allow mob spawning, so eggs can be placed. 
Most likely a temporary change (So mindful feedback), to negate KDR hungry people hunting down new spawns.
Civilian kills (People not in crews) now have a negative KDR (-1.0) when you kill them. I have no idea why this was a positive KDR before.
I know some people need to be killed over and over to leave, trolls, bots etc. This would be nice to moderate with helpers/mods.
There is no option for kill weight for ally kills, but there is a friendly fire toggle which im not turning on!
ī¸ KDR kill weights have been set wrong for years, the score you are used to is based on killing people NOT in crews. ī¸
Previously it was set to; +1.0 kdr for killing a civ (Someone not in a crew like a new spawn) +0.5 for a Neutral kill (someone in a crew and not allied/rival) and +1.5 for a Rival kill.
Obviously having a higher civ kill score than a neutral is backwards,
THIS IS IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND THE KDR HAS NEVER BEEN SET CORRECTLY
âšī¸ Rivals are still at 1.5 and neutral (People in crews but not Rivals) weight is 0.5.
â Feel strongly about this change and want to complain? #🔭suggestions_chat
I feel like the neutral kills needs to be bumped to 0.75 at least, I will copy in how KDR woks from our guides page in #🔭suggestions_chat
https://piratemc.com/guides/crews/#kdr
Updated anti-cheat
Removed sleep plugin as it was pointless Sadly I had to allow people to say "yes" in chat again, instead of replacing it with "aye" due to the crew plugin needing a "yes" to leave a crew Entities can now move on Brigs & Brigs are 2.5x faster in Cruise and 2x in maneuver. (Villagers, Cows, pigs, horses etc)
I have only updated brigs for now as a small trial/test just incase something bad happens! Get testing and report back to #🚢ships Updated Anti-cheat
Added a backend plugin to sync eco to a database for something i'm working on. Created a new test server from scratch! Extremely basic and essentials only for test purposes, but we're able to test properly again! /server test and use /server survival to get home. At present testing Halloween crate! Added #deleted-channel for our yearly Xmas calendar for you to request Items be part of the calendar (We have never had suggestions like this before, it usually is just staff that pick them!)
Im looking for #🗄âhelp_wanted_archive for people to build some pirate themed 1vs1 arenas, this will be a very easy arena to get us started and testing on a PVP server without having to make something massive and we can get testing quickly. Please read the #🗄âhelp_wanted_archive channel.
@calliemav is back! With a vengeance already starting on some custom mobs! Please post Pirate/Halloween Mob suggestions in #🔭suggestions_chat Updated OS/Java
Updated Bungee server
Updated Anti-Cheat Updated formatting on halloween crate items on test server.
Tweaked drop rates, 5 star items should now drop much more frequently.
Changed quantities of some items given when won.
Potions and brews are still broken and will not drop. Arrows are acting weirdly. Testing is appreciated, you can help at /server test Removed :ikillu: emoji and added : halloween : for the Halloween season
Gods seems to have fixed the issues regarding shop owners being offline and not getting money - please TEST.
Gods and I figured out the issues with the brews in the halloween crates. We'd appreciate if you go and test em again -> /server test
Tweaked drop rate of 5 star items
Removed fire aspect III from axe Removed the Eco MySQL sync plugin, as it was causing trouble with money being sent to offline players, those that abused this got their balances wiped and some severe punishments for stealing money from pirates.
Halloween Crate is now live! Massive thanks to @xeronthecat to making Halloween Crate 2019!
CalypsosCoffer Keys are being auto dropped to a random person online every 30 mins! be in it to win it! you just need to be online to be in for a chance to have a free key dropped!
Halloween Donate sale! its been ages since we had a coupon! The same as every year 15% off all of /donate https://piratemc.com/donate/ with coupon code slimysailor
CalypsosCoffer Keys now Avalible in /donate 10 x CalypsosCoffer for $4.99! Will only last for Halloween! Use them while you can! (were a little late this year!)
CalypsosCoffer Keys Added to vote crate! /vote for a chance to win a CalypsosCoffer key in our vote crate!
I did a mass key drop to everyone online when this went live! If I get time Thursday (Halloween) I will do the same!
âš The CalypsosCoffer crate displays some times wrong on items, some 15 second lingering potions might be 4 mins! Times are also not displayed properly on the item, I have added it to their lore (this is Minecrafts fault!) and the custom Arrows also say no effect but they do! (God dammit Mojang!) Updated AntiCheat & Chat plugin Discount code slimysailor should now be working, sorry about that guys and galls Updated Analytics plugin
Added Custom Mobs Plugin & Dependancies, I wonder what this could be for!
Updated PVP Tag plugin
Pirates now get untagged when their enemy dies updated worldedit and asynchronous worldedit plugins on both survival and creative, this should hopefully stop the oddities and visual glitches it was causing when used.
Did some big event prep work which is now moved over, stay tuned!
updated anti cheat again! /warp halloween IS NOW LIVE! PvP is OFF! So its players vs custom mobs! There are 7 Custom mobs and 2 Custom Bosses! Make sure you come prepared! Website - Added Halloween logo and banner! I have fully retired our old Dedicated servers from Canada, these have served us amazingly over the years, so F's in chat to these machines that will actually be removed from the data centre now as they were legacy machines.
Teamspeak server was hosted on our old main Dedi recently, I've not seen any activity on it so will not be creating a new TS server unless there is a request from a lot of players to keep it, most people that were active on it have just moved to using Discord Voice Chat, F's in Chat for Teamspeak.
Rest in spaghetti never forgetti Major Wiki Update I did a mammoth update to the Wiki, I updated the entire core MediaWiki 2 whole versions, which means I had to update ALL the plugins for it, Emptied the cache (You will have to log in again) but most importantly by doing all the upgrades I was able to add a WYSIWYG Editor, this means you edit the Wiki pages like you are using word! No need to deal with code! (Code is still available to edit manually)
This will make editing 90% of pages 100% easier being able to just select and format text/images! This means anyone can easily edit Wiki pages now!
âš The old WikiEditor will still be shown
âš When editing a page, give it a few seconds to load the new editor
âš Pages with complex templates will not display these templates nice at all, you will need to edit these as code still (use the code button)
As this is an ENTIRE MediaWiki upgrade over 2 major versions there may be bugs, do images still upload etc? Report issues to #deleted-channel
https://wiki.piratemc.com/ Wiki Update - Player Template Ive spent the last few days learning how to make custom templates for MediaWiki (holy hell what a learning curve) There is a terrible copy/paste "Info box" that people use, that doesn't work in the editor, doesn't work on mobile and displays weird.
I created a player template that auto gets your skin from UUID and Auto fills out Punishment & Stats URLS, and its simpler, works on mobile and in the editor.
If you want more parameters post in #🔭archived-suggestions
Example (Info box on the right) https://wiki.piratemc.com/GodsDead
Example 2 (Without a custom image) https://wiki.piratemc.com/Iamthereaper89
âšī¸ If people use this to update their profiles/the wiki about players I will create one for crews too!
âšī¸ Your Skin will be pulled automatically and displayed if you fill in the UUID section, OR you can set your own image.

Please welcome @Taulov as full time commodore! Trail is up! Wiki got some navigation! I figured out how to add some navigation to special pages on the wiki to find things easier!
Wiki FAQ Updated please make sure to add any frequently asked questions/answers to this page
https://wiki.piratemc.com/FAQ Creative Changelogs
Updated plots plugin
Put on a whole new version of the ships plugin that's slightly different to the survival version that's 1.14 capable to test it out! thanks @eirikh1996
Added ships plot plugin thanks @eirikh1996
Removed the custom generated creative world, it didn't get used at all!
âšī¸ I will need to update all the ship perms before they are usable (its getting late here)
â Did anyone make a new spawn for Creative asked in #🗄âhelp_wanted_archive I'm certain some people started versions! (It just needs to be simple, atm we have nothing!)

â Did anyone make a new spawn for Creative asked in #🗄âhelp_wanted_archive I'm certain some people started versions! (It just needs to be simple, atm we have nothing!) Found an obscure backend issue with backups that I've fixed.
Creative Changelogs
Added permissions for all ships on Creative! You can now build and sail ships on creative!
Changed the ship plugin to the one we use on the main Survival as the new version I was testing has issues.
Gave everyone /gm 1 and /gm 0 on Creative to toggle if you are for some reason put into survival (or to test things as survival)
Fixed a ton of Craftsman perm issues that was still set to the hub server instead of creative
New sea world on Creative! this is currently generating and will take quite a few hours, its a flatland but its sea with a proper sea bed (to create islands and test ships, and with gm 0 now you can test a lot more!) So at present this is just generating before I can make it into plots!
https://cmap.piratemc.com/?worldname=ocean&mapname=surface&zoom=1&x=-273&y=64&z=77 Forums seem to be fixed!
So the forum system I used had a big update apparently which broke the forums, I've been playing around and think i've fixed them all I can tell they have added for this "big update" that's like a 4 year update is adding per-forum mods, who wants to moderate specific forums?
https://piratemc.com/view/latest-topics/ Fixed Forums CSS to not have writing for ants. Updated Main OS/database software
Removed Books opening via NPC's the developer thought it was a good idea to put in code that automatically shuts down the server when it finds an update, auto downloads the updated plugin to the server, then he also forgot to remove the old plugin as part of his grand scheme to "auto update" which stops the sever booting up again! In essence, he built in a kill switch to auto stop 100's of servers and stop any of them coming up again! What a twat!
Changed the formatting for Crew/Ally chat for those people that were spamming with &k in their ranks, it should only display their Crew Ranks in that format now. Since there is no filter/perms for this formatting these (yet) people that use this will have their crew rank removed/removed from the crew they are in. Feel free to blame these people for the formatting that will be removed from your custom ranks for crews. Updated the Anti-cheat 3 versions. Removing everything Halloween today only a few days to December! Added new banner to website about the Discord #🎉âgiveaway-events #📢âannouncements renewed all SSL certs for maps and other sub domains. (Maps back up)
It's supposed to auto renew itself, not sure why it didn't! Created all the kits, script & permissions for PirateCraft advent calendar 2019 see #📢âannouncements Updated Anticheat, Added Citizens opening books again (No auto updater!), Updated XPBoost plugin, Updated Analytics plugin, Updated our custom made Pirate Utilities.
Updated PVP Tag plugin
Added /newbie command to check time left and /newbie disable to disable protection before time. Accidently stopped the main production server trying to stop the test server while i'm doing test, took the opportunity to update the Discord plugin
Updated the Chat plugin as the absolute genius put in a hard dependency for the Discord plugin, which means it breaks the plugin entirely. Chat plugin updated.
Edit: the SUPER genius broke Private messaging, this is Trump Genius here, its been reported waiting for him to even read the bug report. Changed emoji 'name' of and to reflect feedback from Gods and I better in #🔭archived-suggestions channel. They were 'negative' and 'added' previously, which caused confusion, and are now 'nope no thanks' and 'will look into it' respectfully. This means we can give you guys quicker feedback on suggestions, and avoid confusion. Updated Anti-cheat
Updated Bungee-Chat plugin in hope of fixing Private messages (it didn't work).
Updated Bungee server Via @atalantaa in #🔭archived-suggestions enabled anti-caps filter in Ally chat/Crew chat/Msg/Me/mail (Did I miss any?). Some progress on /server play (whitelisted)
Picked rando spawn from planet Minecraft (So we can get going, we can build something later)
Added regions, setup messages, setup MOTD, setup Databases, Added void respawn, Added void generation, Cross server chat, Cross server ranks.
I will need help with arenas still when it comes time to make them working, I will be using Petals from #🔭archived-suggestions but its not Pirate themed, so please post more arenas into #🔭archived-suggestions once you have made them on Creative.
Game modes available for Arena Creation:
Duels (1v1), 2v2, Party vs Party, Party Split and Party FFA, Party vs Bots, Replays
Create any ladder (build, combo, spleef, bedwars, skywars, horse, parkour, only bow damage, disable hunger and regen for UHC kits)
Fully automatic events: 1v1 Tournament, Sumo, Last Man Standing (FFA Event), King of the hill (KOTH) and Juggernaut (1 vs everyone else)
FFA arenas
âšī¸ Without arenas to test these in, these game modes will not exist! YOU need to create the Pirate themed arenas in Creative! You will get credit! The PirateCraft team will be working on our own Game areans that will be unique to the Minecraft server world in general, but only once we have the basics up and running/tested.
âšī¸ There is no ETA, its when I can find time to work on things, I will release an alpha pre-test to a small whitelist of people when im ready (watch announcements/changelogs) Started color coordinating the /motd on each server to the same colors I have in the server list for each server, Test server & Play server now have updated /MOTD
Removed the terrible tab formatting on Test/Play servers.
Lots of little things on /server Play like setting up Portal to get back to Survival/Holograms.
Been working with @Creeprr to get bugs ironed out on the Custom Crew score plugin I teased ages ago so we can get that live! Were close to release! Been testing that today too, this is based on an algorithm by @xeronthecat to give each crew its own score.
The Discord #🎉âgiveaway-events ended and I gave out the Captain rank to the winners Removed Discord Giveaway banner from website Survival /motd re-formatted.
Changed color scheme to match the server list Yellow/Orange, Fixed overlapping arrow at bottom, Added Forum/News (for blogs) instead of just an arrow to show where the contents coming from (discord later), Made clicking the crew profile button instant instead of "suggesting" the command.
Un-stickied a ton of old forum posts so they are no longer in motd.
Via @cysteen in #🔭archived-suggestions made /me just white italics, I have the option to have different formatted /me in the future based on permission (Maybe a VIP custom me) to stop the spam from the purple as it were.
Also hovering over /me messages tells the user what/how these messages are. Updated Anti-cheat & PVP tag plugin PMs /msg /m /tell /pm /t /w /whisper is now fixed, not sure why it took them so long to fix it, Chat plugin updated.
Analytics updated, Anti-Cheat updated.
Removed Discord giveaway missive
âšī¸ GodsDeads Daily TIP: You can tag someone in the middle of a sentence by using the @ symbol, So you can say hi @xeronthecat and it will tag them in chat and ping a sound! try it out (Just like discord!) Updated 1.13-1.15 Roadmap as 1.15 is coming out today.
https://piratemc.com/topic/piratecraft-roadmap-to-minecraft-1-13/ Added 1.15 Protocol hack to Survival/Creative/Test 1.12.2 servers so 1.15 clients can connect to the 1.12.2 server.
Updated bungee server for 1.15 Spent days compiling a list of Changelogs into a Changelog roundup from August to December 2019, I tried to abbreviate as much as possible (I really need to keep these to monthly roundups that took way too long)
Please read/share as you most likely have missed something that we now have!
/motd auto updated with new blog post, encourage people to click it and read the changes so everyone is caught up!
https://piratemc.com/2019/12/11/changelog-roundup-from-august-to-december-2019/ Fixed the /motd on /server creative to not have the survival motd (Must have overwritten it) Colors match the creative server in the server list now creative.piratemc.com
âšī¸ GodsDeads Daily Tip You can connect to the PirateCraft servers directly from the server list, each one has its own direct URL and tells you who's on which one! We have:
mc.piratemc.com - Main Server IP for everything
survival.piratemc.com - Bypass if you were on another server and want to go directly back to survival
creative.piratemc.com - Go directly to the creative server without going through survival
play.piratemc.com - Go Directly to the games/PvP server without going through survival
test.piratemc.com - Go Directly to the test server without going through survival
From any server you can run /travel to get a GUI to click for travel between server or use /server for direct command to move. Updated chat plugin & bungee counterpart - now ignores vanished players from PM Re-fixed @Builder & @Build Leader permissions on creative. Updated Protocol hack on all servers Minor website change, Added padding to all blog post content & headings, added a bigger line-height for all list items. Also updated the error message for when the online user widget cannot connect to the server, turns out some firewalls block it! Updated xmas crate on test server, please test - you get a sneak peak of the rewards afterall Updated Anti-Cheat and XPBoost plugin My regular: disabled NPC showing for Anti-cheat & Disabled AC Chat filter (every time I update it overwrites my changes) Updated Protocol hack to allow 1.15.1 clients to connect to our 1.12.2 servers. Updated Bungee server for 1.15.1 Clients to connect to the 1.12.2 server in conjunction with our Protocol hack
Updated OS/Database server
Updated Tebex(BuyCraft)/Jump Pads/Chat/Anti Cheat/Discord/Bottle EXP/Analytics plugins
Added Custom mobs plugin and new custom item plugin to go with it and Disguises plugin. (I wonder what this could be! ) Xmas 2019 went live, see #📢âannouncements for details Added Comet Crate see #📢âannouncements
Added Comet Crate key to Vote chest
Made the Comet Key drop every 30m to someone random online
Added the Comet key to the online store, 10x for $4.99 http://donate.piratemc.com/checkout/packages/add/3661280/single New Giveaway! 15x Comet Crate keys to be picked for 3 people on Christmas Day! enter now just react to the #🎉âgiveaway-events Channel Crew of the Year poll (see #📢âannouncements channel), has been amended to allow you to pick as many crews as you like for all questions. All questions are very close right now, so I invite you to go and pick a few more options!
We'll be using this : gift : emoji to show any changes relating to the xmas event in this channel, similar to halloween - just to keep it all organised. Drop rate of top xmas items buffed over xmas days Xmas crate updated: fixed formatting, fixed bugged head, buffed 5 star drop rate over xmas. Mostly testing today with @cysteen Go check out the 4 cool doors on /server test completely new plugin for big animated doors/portcullis/sliding door and drawbridges I've been meaning to test for years, we figured since they use falling blocks when moving they could be used as instant traps for floors so sadly, may not end up being available to full server and just builders, they are absolutely epic though, For those that can't here's a video I made for you:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4TgZ8_AoUTM&feature=youtu.be
They also support live sound by adding this resource pack on top of your existing resource pack! https://www.dropbox.com/s/0q6h8jkfjqrn1tp/BigDoorsResourcePack.zip?dl=1
Also been testing editing armour stands for a contributor perk, seems to respect land claims! found 1 issue and 1 bug, so once the bugs fixed we should hopefully be able to push this live. You can also see these in the video. Testing a whole new jail system on /server test that has boss bar timer for how long you have left, holograms for people outside the jail to see time left, set a reason, a no escape barrier, position to teleport when finishes, much clearer.
We have a jail yourself button on /server test for 1 min to see what jails like! haha I have also setup one of the cool sliding doors on the jail that someone can control! Lets remake the jails we have?
That #🔭archived-suggestions we had to use the spawn ship floating box would actually work with this jail system. ended the poll asking how many people joined before 1.8 /poll results joined for those interested. Turns out, I still have my 1.7.10 files! So I can just compare to current active players! Tldr, I will need to make a script to update peoples stats when I move to 1.13+ with a new stats and auto ranking system. Think I fixed the /warp cove spawn dropping people into water, put some full blocks under it and moved it.
There is a Treasure chest on the beach at /warp cove with some goodies to celebrate entering 2020! Creative Fixed not being able to /gamemode creative on creative, alias include eecreative, creativemode, ecreativemode, gmc, gms, esurvival, survivalmode, esurvivalmode and I'm personally a fan of /gm 1 and /gm 0
Creative Hopefully people spawn in the correct world when they first join now! People were still going to hub! If you are stuck in the hub please use /spawn to get to the Creative world.
Creative Hopefully fixed when you join you are now in Creative mode and not survival, not sure why this changed! What a pain in the bum, that means people have been joining creative in survival mode and nobody reported it!
Creative WHOLE NEW SEA WORLD! There is a whole new sea world you can /plot claim in and build what you want! Ships work! build and test ships! build tropical islands!
You can get here by going to /spawn and right clicking the Sea world NPC or you can use /sea or /ocean you can always get back with /spawn
Ships are blocked when you cruise to the edge of your plot, but there seems to be a bug where if you cruise half your ship may end up in the next plot.. I will report!
There are no paths on the sea world, so you will have to use /plot info to help you find the edges of your claim, remember you can merge plots for more space!
Map: https://cmap.piratemc.com/?worldname=ocean&mapname=surface&zoom=0&x=603&y=64&z=-42
Creative Removed the old NPC text about the custom biome world, that's long gone! Updated missives, removed some old ones, changed their timings there shown, and added BOTM Jan 2020 missive.
Removed "shark pit" from the cove where you could enter the region and not exit (It was an old jail with a shark in it)
Did a /thaw for the snow at Market, builders will need to manually remove the rest of the snow left. Reduced the amount of Skeleton horses allowed per chunk from 10 to 3, as there are trillions of them everywhere. Added Auction 12 now live use /auc in-game, see #📢âannouncements for spoiler of whats inside! Creative Fixed NPCs actually being clickable on Creative plots thanks for the report @stevenking169 @Builder & @Build Leader and above now have permission to create those amazing doors I showed off on /server test on the Creative server!
Check the #builder chat for Commands/Videos on how to use and limits.
I really want to get this pushed out live to everyone, but with the doors being classed as dropping sand when animated it means they can be used for instant floor traps, starting small with builders on creative first! maybe they will show you what they can come up with on creative? I will be looking forward to seeing them in #📷âmedia Creative re-gave permission to access the hub world, and added signs/pressure plates to tell people to use /spawn to get to the main creative.
Still have a few lost souls stuck wandering around the hub world not knowing what's what! Updated Anti-Cheat which has re-written a lot of speed checks & has too many changes to list.
Updated Entity Manager & Crates plugins Changed the /server selector message to remove the writing about Creative being on Hub, will take effect next reboot.
Via #🔭archived-suggestions @cysteen Removed the Chat replacement for "gonna" to "Going to", so you can now have your common chat, the only other words left are now:
dis, u, dia, wb, ty, ez, np, np!, oldman, romich, omg, hello
If you have any suggestions for words that need replacing or removing from the list, please post in #🔭archived-suggestions (Not removing yours @romich02 ) @iwanidev Updated the PirateCraft resource pack for 1.13-1.14+
With Shanties https://github.com/FrozenBeard/PirateCraftRP/raw/master/PMC-Shanties-1.13-1.14.zip
Without Shanties https://github.com/FrozenBeard/PirateCraftRP/blob/master/PMC-1.13-1.14.zip
Repo https://github.com/FrozenBeard/PirateCraftRP Fixed signs working on cannons again! (was being blocked by Chat plugin) Thanks for the report @eirikh1996 and thanks for testing @Deleted User Updated Anti-cheat configs to not broadcast when a players kicked for cheating, hide NPCS in checks and disabled its Chat spam protection as we already do this, seem to have to redo these all every time I update it! Updated the EssentialsX suite of plugins, I cant see any player related changes, ping me if you notice anything in #ââgeneral Removed Custom Mobs/Custom Item plugin from Xmas Event & removed Disguise plugin.
Updated Anti-cheat
Updated Ender pearl cooldown plugin (it reset its configs)
The configs updated, so it put us back to the default 30s cooldown temporarily, there is no reload for the plugin in-game so will have to wait until next reboot, unless it updates itself.
/stats/ is now fixed and showing again, turns out its either the Custom mobs plugin/Custom item plugin/Disguise plugin just stopping it displaying the stats in-game, this is vital I got this working for our next set of tests!
Updated Chat plugin Updated Regen scripts to reset Xmas world and send out messages to everyone! XMAS world is now lootable with PVP off, tomorrow this changes! PvP Will be ON! So get in your Free looting now! /warp xmas /warp xmas2 /warp xmas3 Stopped key drops for the Xmas Crate, use your Xmas crate keys now! The chest will be removed soon! Changed every text and voice chat on discord to verified only. Now only verified people can send messages in them. If you haven't verified yourself yet check out the #deleted-channel channel and follow its instructions. Added PirateScore plugin made for us by @Creeprr see #📢âannouncements A website page and/or blog post will be made soon about the PirateScore plugin going over it in a little more detail. All you need to know is what Gods said: Members, KDR, Number of allies, (in)activity, claimblocks, and money, will affect the score, but in different ways. A well rounded crew will do far better than one that specializes! Good luck! Manually did a Xmas reset just now, and changed the reset to happen twice a day like last year 12:00GMT and 00:00GMT, this means I can end the event faster! Don't expect this world to stay resetting for long! I'm thinking about shutting it down Monday (tomorrow) from resetting. I created a little test NPC at /warp cove to replace the Wood Shop, he Buys/Sells using a GUI and at present only sells/buys Dark Oak Logs, Since I made him myself using an assortment of plugins i'm a bit wary that he can be broken/gamed, so if you can find a way to cheat him out of money ping me and ill give you a big fat bounty! oioi!
I wanted to learn to do it the hard way so I can make more complex NPCS that sell/buy things later, this one actually has a custom permission node im checking for, but its set to global while hes in testing at present, means later on I can limit him to Deckhands/Cadets, that's what that Wood shops really for.
I want to have some Traders around the warps to buy Horses/Donkeys for people to buy some travel, nice and simple, just have to make sure it works fine first! #deleted-channel if something breaks with him, and PM me directly if you find a way to exploit him!
edit: Wouldnt mind moving all server based things to NPCS so people know how/where to find them, makes life easier. Ship Shop NPC, Cannons NPC etc. Updated Anti-cheat Retired the Xmas world for another year and stopped the reset script. It run for longer than expected! I hope your plundering went well. Removed Quests until we have some ideas written up for quests #🔭archived-suggestions for quest ideas.
Updated Anti-cheat again!
Updated Jump Pads to fix console spam from removing xmas world. Hopefully fixed the GeoIP database working for player locations. Verified people can now read the #ââgeneral again, little woopsie happened with perms? If you cant see/post in any more channels as verified please #deleted-channel @Markusi13 changed them recently Removed general_unverified channel. Renamed general_verified to general. Added ban plugin to the test server (Whoops) Forgot that one haha! Saw a few banned players directly joining to use the cross-server chat! Updated Essentials suite of plugins & Changed the config for GeoIP. Last night me and @Deleted User were testing the PvP plugin for the new /server Play / play.piratemc.com mini-games server, it seems to be working, theres a hell of a lot of quality of life changes to be made and it will be a process, but it works, what this means, is we need Pirate themed/Caribbean/Medieval/Steampunk (No modern designs, it wont fit with the server) arenas, We can use anything built anywhere now, so It can be on Survival or creative for us to copy over to play, please can you post a screenshot of your base/arena you think would make a good mini-game to #🔭archived-suggestions with a TPPOS, this also means you could get something copied from Survival to Creative to edit it to work for a PvP mini game.
I also need someone to tell me if big-brand mini-game servers have an arena per world, or if they just have one big void they put all arenas in one world (I have no idea).
I will be brining back the old FFA PvP arena we had already as there is a backup on the Creative as it was super noice.
Once we have a bunch of arenas and i'm at a point where im happy to open to some alpha testing doors will open to a whitelisted group to give feedback first.
Alternatively if you have seen something in the world you think looks awesome to fight in, post that! or from the live map!
Also we can use maps from places like planetminecraft, we can adapt/give credit, just be awesome if everything was built by the community.
Primary goal is to just have a safe space to PvP with kits, then later on create some super unqiue mini-games. Weekend was spent figuring out and putting together the PvP server (/server play) still pre-alpha so whitelisted, its going to be a while yet until its out for testing, so many changes no point me listing them all. Hopefully you wont have to use the test server for small duels then
Started tracking explosions with coreprotect to find out who griefed areas. Updated Chat plugin & NPC plugin
Removed NPC command plugin as Its now built into NPC plugin
Changed Staff inventory viewing plugin
Updated the world based inventory plugin to the latest legacy version
Added admin shop plugin
Support for a new ship shop where a ship is stored in a chest you can place, also so I can have a new wood shop with permissions and to sell horses etc at NESW warps.
Added plugin to buy pre-made ships
It will take quite a few hours of setup for me to create the ships as chests to place down and will require some testers to see how they place, it took quite a bit of effort for me to figure out how to place them when testing, so this is mostly prep for when I have time to do it. /warp south NPC shop re-made, you can now buy a Tamed horse with saddle as an Egg from "Stockman" stockman will in time sell Cattle at all warps and more types of livestock!
Current price is £200 in-game cash, this can change at any point.
Changed warp south to allow mob spawning, so eggs can be placed. Most likely a temporary change (So mindful feedback), to negate KDR hungry people hunting down new spawns.
Civilian kills (People not in crews) now have a negative KDR (-1.0) when you kill them. I have no idea why this was a positive KDR before.
I know some people need to be killed over and over to leave, trolls, bots etc. This would be nice to moderate with helpers/mods.
There is no option for kill weight for ally kills, but there is a friendly fire toggle which im not turning on!
ī¸ KDR kill weights have been set wrong for years, the score you are used to is based on killing people NOT in crews. ī¸
Previously it was set to; +1.0 kdr for killing a civ (Someone not in a crew like a new spawn) +0.5 for a Neutral kill (someone in a crew and not allied/rival) and +1.5 for a Rival kill.
Obviously having a higher civ kill score than a neutral is backwards,
THIS IS IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND THE KDR HAS NEVER BEEN SET CORRECTLY
âšī¸ Rivals are still at 1.5 and neutral (People in crews but not Rivals) weight is 0.5.
â Feel strongly about this change and want to complain? #🔭suggestions_chat
I feel like the neutral kills needs to be bumped to 0.75 at least, I will copy in how KDR woks from our guides page in #🔭suggestions_chat
