Some experimental changes to test performance today. So please be patient if these do not work as planned.
Added Distributed Mob Spawns.
This is an test to see if we can improve mob spawning around players by trying to fix another of Mojang's many mistakes. Consider every single player online that is walking around on the overworld loading mobs under them in dark caves that are pointless and never seen! The Idea of Distributed Mob Spawns is to distribute mobs per player instead of a global cap.
This may be when one player is loading too many mobs around causing other players to not get many spawns.
This is untested and can only be tested live to see what effects it has on mobs and farms , I will again say to please be patient and calm if this has untold effects on your farms as this is the only negative effect I can see it having, I'm hoping this plugin targets natural spawning and avoids spawners for your farms, this test should tell us!
This is the plugin description for added detail:
Multiplayer natural mob spawning has a fatal flaw. It uses a global cap that is essentially only dependent on the number of chunks loaded. This means areas with lots of dark areas will get more mob spawns over other areas. This can lead to the situation where some players have many more mobs around them over other players.
Distributed Mob Spawns aims to solve this issue by preventing mob spawns around players who have exceeded the spawn limit around their mob-spawn-radius area.
- Avoid situations where too many monsters spawn in player made dark room monster farms.
- Also avoid situations where no monsters spawn in monster grinder when more than 1 player is online.
Slightly Buffed Animal spawns.
Slightly Buffed Monster spawns.
Testing the performance hit Anti-Xray has on the server.
Website
6 Random online users shown on the homepage!
After coming up with the idea, I've been pulling my hair out today to get this working reality but I've built it!
Pulled from my custom online users widget, so when that updates it updates the random players on the homepage too!
You can click them to go to the users page (That needs a whole redesign at some point)
Pirates on the right face the other direction
Auto resizes and hides dynamically based on device/screensize!
Slight caveat, it can display the same user multiple times 
I tried to fix it, but I got fed up and would have to re-do the Javascript I already made!
Users wobble when you hover, but the right ones flip which I cant figure out why oh well!
Online users widget got a button to refresh/try to connect again if it doesn't Query first time.
I just thought it would be cool to show full 3D skins of some people currently online at random.

Updated the Staff application form success message and email conformation should now be sent.
Crew Score Overhaul! /crewscore
Complete overhaul for score calculation by Xeron/@Creeprr
Member count, KDR, and ally count now contribute directly to the score rather than modifying it - large crews will no longer be catapulted to extreme scores.
Reduced score contribution from claimblocks and money.
Increased score contribution from being active.
Score contribution from being active now scales with member count - this should give larger crews more flexibility when it comes to being 'active'.
Fixed issue where negative KDR would not produce a score.
Tweaked score scaling.

Updated Entity manager plugin
Adds better Armour stand limiting (From my report about issues with Armour stands) Will require testing before I can remove the additional plugin I had to add.
Added system for managing grouped entities, This effects only overflow and will not effect entity natural spawning. This has not been set to any specific entities but will be added to Armour stands so should not effect any farms.
Added /mfm list (range) for @Admin so they can check how many mobs are in a range and teleport to that area with a lot of mobs.
Made all Crate animations take half the time! /warp cove Treasure chests!
The animation was set at 6 seconds, I have set it to 3 seconds now and is much faster. Via @ratelicious #🔭archived-suggestions There is only a global modifier for animation speed so it has to be ALL crates not just Vote ones.

This one is just for @Helper & @deleted-role I moved your /warp private (I'm not sure why we didn't call this /warp help or /warp helper, ask me if you want it changed)
Thanks to @claymaester who already built you an island next to the Mod & Admin islands, I removed the one from inside Cove and put you with us! So you now have your own "Nobody can enter this region" apart from @Helper @deleted-role @Moderator and @Admin
It's a big old area, so build additional islands each like Mods have done, use it as a safe haven for Helper Discussion and to put items that need to be confiscated...
Claim goes back 100 blocks and its bedrock to sky, so you also have underground! Just be aware this is a shared space, build and use it as you wish!

Updated all Popup shop rent prices (/shop8)! Looks like I messed up the algorithm when I made the popup shop group for shops which all the shops at shop8 are!
I must have copied the stalls group algorithm which divided the shop price by 7 (as these are a maximum of 7 days rent) /shop8 were being rented at $5 a week roughly! A little insane. Its all fixed now back at the prices the shops should be. There still super cheap as there tiny shops, so it might increase to maybe ~$40 a week.
People at /shop8 basically been getting free rent! LANDLORD COLLECTS!
So apologies to you @johnkrasinskii you were right in the fact that some shops has insane cheap rent. Popups will now follow all other shops.
âšī¸ The last legacy price system is the whole of shop2/shop3 shops. which are not using the algorithm to calculate prices based on volume and my modifier.
s64 and s62 were moved to the correct "shops" group, they were somehow in their own "shop" group where ive also screwed up and missed the S off "shops" when setting their group.
@grafando your S62 Went from $791 a month to about $387.66 a month! (It was using the default fixed algorithm as It wasn't grouped correctly!)
@Rose1523 your S64 Went from $791 a month to about $898.128 a month! (It was using the default fixed algorithm as It wasn't grouped correctly!) S64 is MUCH bigger than s62, so this one increased a little bit.
âšī¸ Groups of shops
Stalls = Rent 1 day at a time, Maximum extend time of 7 days before someone else can rent. but cost 7* less than shops. There are only 3 stalls in the market now: s26, s25, s27.
Popups = Same volume & modifier algorithm as shops, but maximum 3 weeks rent at 5 days each re-rent. Trying to migrate shops to, so they change hands.
Shops = Infinite Extend time. Max rent of 30 days at a time, each extend is 7 days.

Please welcome the entirely re-made /shop7 (Version 3)
This was the fastest emptying of all shops, removing all existing, building new shops from scratch and technically making them work in the history of the marketplace. With our amazing new @Build Leader @IndexOutOfMJ & @ScriptX getting this built today I managed to get it live today!
Every shop got bigger s77-s82 was re-made much larger into proper sized shops.
Converted to pop-ups s77-s82 were made as Pop-up shops, with a max extend of 5 days you can extend your rent, you will have a maximum of 3 weeks before they change hands! Not permanent, and no more stalls!
No more obstructing Tree Listening to community feedback about shops not being in-view we have moved the tree (As it was so nice) to over the river! So it wasn't lost! its now the backdrop to /shop7
We lost a shop! Sadly in the process of making all shops bigger and better, we had to make room, this involved having to remove a shop (S83 was picked as the latest one) So @director_t05 you are owed a shop! 8 shops is a nice medium! Slain Angel now owns s77!
All existing owners have been re-set to their shop number, but the shops may be in a differnt order/location.
@mionathegreat @BreakableHusk @CrimpyBark @Palmerto @unitedstatesborderpatrol @Jmoo_ Your shops contents were emptied into your inv/echest. You only gained in this process! You are now ready to move back in! @director_t05 is owed a shop, so if any of these people no longer want a bigger shop, Slain_Angel is the first person to obtain one. If you wish to sell talk to me. Do not sell to anyone else. Slain Angel now owns S77!

Small change in teleportation so /warps /back /top /spawn /tpa (Not homes yet) Added 0.1 block height to try and stop people falling through blocks. Do report any issues in #📁âbugs-archive
Fix when teleporting player on top of water and resulting in player being placed on bottom, now it should place player where target location was defined
Fix for possible abuse when using /tpa and /tpahere commands while canceling one of those and forcing wrong one to be accepted. Now it will properly accept the one which was offered and clicked in chat.
Added missing permission for @Admin to re-create /warps again! Will allow them to add warps to the GUI for temp events if /warp event is taken/in-use.

Removed all old /ewarp commands (Legacy)
Removed old /email command (Legacy)
Everyone at /warp shop2, /warp shop3 and /warp shop8 Can you please removed everything from your shops DON'T PANIC! You will not lose your shops!
Shop2 & Shop3 has been entirely re-designed by @IndexOutOfMJ & @ScriptX and I need to start preparing everyone to leave, I am taking notes tongiht of who's in what shop so that I have a list for when I re-create the shops!
The plan is shop2 & shop3 will become 1 warp, just /warp shop2. Shop8 people will be moved to shop3 which is also an entirely new marketplace built from the ground up! Then an additional marketplace will be build to take over /shop8 warp (In the near future once a theme is decided, I want pirate themed)!
To re-cap: Everyone that has a shop that will be moved, will be moved into a new shop, the people at the current shop2/shop3 I have you all in #🛒shop2-â already so you can ask questions in there, I will create a new channel for shop8 people.
There are 14 shops at the newly created shop2, and we have 11 people to move from shop2/shop3 which means we will have 3 brand new additional massive shops that we will somehow have to give out, post in #🔭archived-suggestions with a fair idea. Before I did a #🎉âgiveaway-events for people that wanted one of the new shops.

Website/Moderation/Reporting/Support - DO NOT SKIM READ!
Making a report (Support Ticket/Help Desk) should be your go to for any issues you see with badly behaved players or need staff support, please stop messaging staff in direct messages and not reporting issues you see with people as they happen! If its not reported it can't be moderated! Even if its its something "small" like Toxic or agressive behavior, or someone scamming regular, REPORT IT! This lets us build cases on how people play!
This is how we have always moderated! This support system is also not new its been around since September 2020! It uses the same login details you use for the forums! But its private!
https://piratemc.com/support/
This is mostly adding information update for clarity, I have spent today updating the website and created a big information page on the support page to help you understand in a permanent location how moderation works on PirateCraft and the kind of things you need to be reporting, I will not include that information in this post, read the support page!!!
Added a giant green button on the top of the website navigation for reporting players.
This has always been in the information menu and on the footer of every single page on the website AND its in /report in-game and recently posted in #📢âannouncements This is where you need to be reporting issues to staff, and now its impossible to miss! Its he giant green button that says "Support & Reports"
Wrote a clear explanations on "What you should be reporting" after talking to staff they suggested the issue lies with people thinking staff will not listen/want a report, this is the complete opposite! Stop believing plebs in general chat! Now you have a guide!

@Helper Temp mute time doubled!, from 6h to 12h maximum.
Stopping people talking takes nothing away from playing but it can be the most drastic improvement to the rest of the server by just shutting up one person, one person can cause so much toxcity/drama by just talking and is usually the main cause of all issues.
How do you calm down a toddler that's having a tantrum and will not listen to logic or reason? They take a naptime and come back fresh. 12 hours should be enough time for anyone to stop talking trash and go take a break or go sleep off their anger. This is not a platform for rants! This is a shared Minecraft server so treat it as such!
Fixed @Moderator long outstanding bug with temp mutes, Mods now have their temp mutes back at a maximum of 365 days for those that really need a break from talking.
Added Temp Warnings for @Helper up to a maximum of 2 weeks! These are like public notes to warn people not to do something again.

Moved Griefing to under "Building & Claiming Rules" as its own rule with sub-rules & explained how you request regeneration & rollbacks.
Slight re-wording for 2.1 and 2.2.
Added building rule to explain you are allowed to use the ship plugin to make things other than ships, such as turrets, cranes & trains! Just no airships! I saw someone ask this recently so thought I would add it. Specifically no airships as they are used to grief with lava/water/tnt.
Added rule specifically about not using Alternative accounts, this is written in the introduction but was missing from the list of rules.
General rules, added Do not impersonate staff
Chat Rules, added Do not cause drama in public chats. Divert your complaints to either support or the forums.
Updated Genereal Rules 4. 2 and added 4.3. To separate duping from exploiting plugins.

Play/PvP server
Updated the PvP/Arena plugin, loads of small fixes.
Migrated all the configs for the Arena plugin to GitHub so @Deleted User can manage and make changes to the settings/kits on the play server!
Added admin arena perms for @deleted-role @Admin Which should allow managing arenas including creating new ones and all aspects of the Arena plugin on /server play
Survival
Everyone: Check anyones punishments in-game with /bminfo <username> or check your own with /bminfo you can also use flags to show specific information -bans, -kicks, -mutes, -warns and even filter by -time
All this information is public on the website anyway, this just acts as a fast way to quickly check in-game! Very good to quickly see how trustworthy someone is!!
Idea: If this becomes useful information, I can show this information in the hover over chat messages for quick overview of someone & their behavior.
Thanks to @creatingwithkass for questioning something else that made me consider adding this command! Thanks Kass haha

Had to spend my day today tidying up /warp south here's a before and after!
No more Traps, Player claims, Grief, Spam Signs, Turf Wars, Giant squares of stone brick at a public warp!
This was all on one side of south, which just happened to be the shortest distance from a public warp that players could claim on! I have expanded the south claim to match the rest of the warps. (I wonder why there was turf wars )
We will build a flat Arena that players can update here that fits in with the south design! @Builder @Build Leader shouldn't take too long if I move south to creative!
Nothing was lost! Bases were moved (This took the time!) thanks to @lazydog11 helping me remove the 2000 claims around this area! 
All Servers
Updated Analytics plugin
Website
Re-wrote how highlighting staff works for my custom online players widget on the website.
Updated the entire staff list it checks against.
Added @Helper @Media @Developer @Build Leader @deleted-role Staff Ranks to the online tracker, you will now show up as your in-game color!
Tweaked the colors & made staff show bold/white text now, and aligned ranks to the right/added hover over.
Updated the Mobile link to be https://piratemc.com/players/ instead of the old https://piratemc.com/online/ which still works if you prefer it but staff will not be highlighted properly and it won't auto refresh! 
Survival
Shop owners can now rent the ship regions again!
I figured out the permissions for having a global shop limit, but still limiting shops to 1 per person, but allowing to rent shops from other "groups", which I use to sell ships at /warp ship warps. This will give me many more options later to have separate groups of rentable regions outside of marketplace if you own a shop already.
Survival
Updated all SSL certs, so all maps back up!
Blocked mobs being able to hurt you at /warp shop After people using Entermites/Killer bunnies! Not fair if you cant fight back! So these mobs can still spawn and run around, but wont hurt you. I can block mobs if people spam them.
Removed Withers from being spawnable at the marketplace.
Removed being able to make a big door out of portal blocks (Thanks @dpex81 )
Survival
A Pirate trade ship got stuck in Suez Canal, it swayed to one side so much all barrels of rum rolled overboard and washed into the ocean.
To not let it go to waste, drink as much ocean water as you can!!
Note : there might be slight side effects as it has entered the water cycle.
In other news
New! /doors now have a notification setting in the GUI! This Alerts the Owner of a door when its been toggled! Massive thanks to @ir0nar That had this idea!
Good for testing if a redstone contraption is working with a door!
Could act as a sort of proximity sensor if you set the doors up with redstone! Someone walks on a pressure plate activating your door and it sends you a message in chat with the door name so you know what door it is!
See attached video of it in action!

Shop owner expiry notifications gained title + sound warnings! Via @Deleted User in #🔭archived-suggestions who didnt see the 4 notifications sent in chat.

Updated the format of /servertime to show Day name/Month name and made it gold/orange to fit in with the rest of the servertime text. Before it was in the USA format which none of the rest of the world uses! Who does Month Day year!? Should be easier to understand now.
Removed the April fools Acid water! This was fun it should be on more often for odd days! 
Survival
New! Everyone gained access to a new command /mailignore playerName/uuid/all this blocks /mail being sent to you from a certain player, or entirely from everyone with /mailignore all this works as a toggle to turn it on/off.
You will still be able to be sent mail from @Helper @Moderator and @Admin & Console.
âšī¸ Don't worry I haven't forgotten about /ignore that will come back! The chat developer just screwed everyone over by dropping support for the plugin, requiring us to re-buy it each year as a subscription, which requires re-doing all the configs from scratch, which also means re-writing my custom script that builds our custom /motd It will come back, its just a big old process to get one feature back!

2 new Rules Added
After a team discussion we are bringing back an old rule and introducing a new rule that we have always followed but never written down.
These will take effect as from today.
3 warnings in 3 months will be escalated into a punishment based on context.
This will not be automated, this will be at staff digression.
Excessive punishments will result in harsher punishments
Punishments are a chance for a player to stop and think about their actions and what they have been punished for; a second chance to be allowed to continue to play.
Collecting excessive punishments will result in much harsher future punishments.
This will not be automated, this will be at staff digression.
These can be found under "Punishments" on https://piratemc.com/information/rules/
These rules are to explain that players can't just keep getting warns/mutes/bans without repercussion if they just ignore these second/third/thirty chances to fix their shortcomings.

Updated Bungee server quite a few versions
Updated The main server JAR to the latest 1.12.2 server, somehow I was 0.0.1 version behind and its been out over a year! Most likely nothing changed, but just be aware.
Survival/Creative/Play/Test
Updated premium suite of essentials.
This introduced an update that I requested a while ago that i'm excited for! It addd the ability to have 10 randomly picked locations for a warp! To give an example of how this could be used:
We could if we wanted, have when you use /shop2 pick one of 1 of 10 random warp positions, so you could situate a warp right outside a shop(s) so instead of randomly rotating your orientation, it would place you outside a shop randomly.
This may be very confusing, but it may be worth trialing.
This would also be very useful for arenas, having multiple places to spawn when you /warp arena So we may need to get some people to re-make or update the inside of the arena!
When teleporting to a player, now considers if a player is sitting/on a vehicle
:info: We still need someone to make us a flat arena for south in the south design!
:info: I found this changelog graphic I made ages ago that I might start using on changelogs from time to time.

Friday Evening Changelogs
Added /warp jail for @Helper @Moderator @Admin to quickly get to the Cove Jails Via @solembus
Changed the proxy server for an entirely differnt Proxy server for next reboot.
When this comes back up this should fix the online users widget on the website homepage too.
Do report to me in #📁âbugs-archive if after next reboot at 17th 10.30am BST if you get any network issues and make sure to report which client version you are using.
Added optimized Java flags to Proxy server again.
Changed The Veteran channel to be called #💎consultant_council to avoid confusion with the word "Veteran" with people expecting to be added just for long playtime, this was never the case and was purely for consulting advice on changes. Via @atalantaa

Added a second spawn location for /warp arena that's picked at random when you use the /warp arena 
Updated Jump pads plugin
Updated PvP Manager
New ability to disable the PvPManger checks in regions! I disabled the PvP Manager checks in /warp arena this means you won't get put in jail for PvP abuse and it also means it wont PvP log you if you leave during combat, each is separate so I can re-turn on Tagging/Logging/Blocking commands but I can keep off the Jail! Tell me what you want!
Updated Discord plugin
Updated Custom head plugin
Survival
Added flat arena under /warp arena you just turn around when using the warp and jump down through the water! This arena is the same region as the one above it, just incase you want a place to PvP on a flat area until the one at south is done!
Updated the /warp arena region to not include PvP above the arena when looking down onto a fight, so you are now safe to spectate from above the arena on top of the Barrier blocks! 
Survival
Bumped the Chat filters max CAPS chars from 5 to 6 to allow 5 Char Capital TAG names for /crew which makes no sense as the crew command is not filtered through the caps filter at all and I found no proof for it when searching, but none the less. Closing Ticket #120 @ir0nar for the report and @creatingwithkass for making the ticket!
@ir0nar Can you double check exactly that it was the CAPS filter stopping this, I cant find any proof for it!
Edit I just thought, does the plugin ask you to write in the crew tag without prefixing it with a command? If so my change today should fix it.
https://github.com/PirateCraft/dev/issues/120
Survival
Updated Premium suite of essentials.
The developer added one of my suggestions to manually reset /back via a command for a player with /resetback
I requested this so that we would be able to reset a players back based off any in-game event, we have had quite a few #🔭archived-suggestions recommending various methods (Such as on logout)
I requested this solution as it was the easiest to implement and the most powerful giving me many options being able to implement it within other plugins at plugin events, instead of just 1 thing.
At present it will only be available manually via @Admin there will not be any automated resets yet.
A message will be sent to you if your back was reset, We also have the option to set a custom reason per reset, or silently do it so no message.
@Admin Gained /resetback (playerName) (reason) (-death) (-s) -s is for silent, -death is to reset /dback which is only for back on death, but players have full /back.
Updated NPC plugin
Made a change to the punishment plugin chat priority
Updated resource pack plugin

Creative
A while ago I mentioned wanting to have the inside of /warp arena automatically change every X time in #🔭archived-suggestions people liked this idea!
On creative I have pasted in the arena at /spawn along with the inside empty shell. You can see the locations for the 2 spawns in the gaps each side.
The arena inside is 65*66 (I know 
) depth is 18 blocks to the bottom of the wall, but it can go down to bedrock, so it can be another 65 blocks deep if you wanted.
The two cut outs are the spawn locations for /warp arena one will be picked at random when used, so you have locations for the spawn points, if we wanted 4 spawn points we should do this earlier before people start building!
The only way to get a copy/paste of the template is to get someone trusted on spawn to copy it from spawn to your plot that you'll have to trust them on.
âšī¸ Once you have an arena made, take a screenshot and post it into #🔭archived-suggestions as a suggestion for an arena that could be swapped too.
âšī¸ If any @Builder wants to take on the task of making small adjustments to the current arena, I've also pasted the latest arena onto the HubFlat world at /warp Cove (this warp works) for you to update already!
There's a hollow house at present that needs its interior made if someone wants to tackle this! 
New rank Helmsman
Created a new rank Helmsman for @Discord Booster at present the only benefits are:
Green username with Aqua badge
Overhead Name Tag

âšī¸ Open to changes at any time on Creative get in contact with the @Builder team for changes to be made to it. 
Survival
Removed the EnderPearl block on the entire of south (Which included the arena Region)
This was on due to the drama caused by the players that had claimed land here before and was requested that south have a pearl block to stop them escaping into a safe zone.
This does mean that players Are able to escape the arena into a PvP safe Zone
âšī¸ Anti Border Hopping is still active, so players that are Tagged in PvP will still not be able to run into a PvP protected zone (Outside the arena) to escape PvP this way, but pearls bypass this as the developer forgot to check for it!
âšī¸ If you wanted to be able to run away from PvP in /warp south into a PvP free zone to pussy out on a fight, the correct wording for a #🔭archived-suggestions would be;
Set the South Arena region as a exclusion to the PvP tagged anti border hopping, to allow people to run to saftey while PvP tagged into a PvP safe zone (Anywhere outside the arena)
Survival
@Moderator @Admin Gained ability to Leave the locker if they locker themselves using /mvtp to get out.

Survival - Missives Clean up
Spring clean on reducing the amount of missives we have in chat.

Removed a few duplicate missives that said similar things, for example we had 3 missives that explained you could use /track that's all in 1 now.
Edited: Requesting staff help missive to use Support system instead of creating a forum thread for direct staff communication.
Updated Suggestions/Bugs be reported to Discord instead of Forums as this is what people do now!
Fixed formatting on 90 Missives (Disabled ¤t) that had double colors added for no reason.
Added Missive about reporting players using the Support Ticket system.
Added Join email newsletter Missive https://piratemc.com/newsletter/

When people try to use /gm 1 or /gamemode it will auto send them to creative now.
Added Missive that if you become a @Discord Booster you'll get the Helmsman rank in-game.
Allowed a specific swear bypass for @Helper @Moderator I will post in the #👑staff_general-old Chat which one! So you can moderate people with that word in their username.
Changed RegEx for URL filter to allow claims to be trusted/access trust etc to BE members with /trust group.be that thought it was posting the belgium top level domain! BE leaders @Taulov @lazydog11 @Bazurka @cat27 @SpikyCactus_ @BGraph This ones for your Crew.
Survival - Custom Locker command!
I created a custom /locker <username> <reason> command for @Moderator @Admin (Been on my to-do list for years!)
Requires a reason.
Sends the player to the locker, Automatically sets a warning for the reason given, which is also sent to the player so they know why they have been sent!
Checks if the user is in the locker, if they are it clears their inventory. This is for those that have collected multiple Sand Dollars in one sitting, so they can get out quicker a second time!
This means that Locker punishments will be logged, players will be given a reason as the form of a warning & it will clear anything they have established in their inventory previous to prevent cheating it.
I created a custom /unlocker <username> command for @Moderator @Admin to remove yourself from the locker or another player.
Don't use <username> and it'll run on yourself!
It checks if you/player is in the locker first before attempting to teleport out of locker!
Survival
I created a /flip command for Carpenter+ This was originally requested by @Deleted User in #📁âsuggestions-archive
Wasn't worth an entire plugin for so I made this today.
Flips a coin 50/50 and outputs in chat the result with who flipped the coin.
Broadcasts to people within a 20 block radius of you.
âšī¸ All it does is randomly pick Heads or Tails and outputs it to chat, this is so you can decide on things with a flip in-game. For example; "Who goes first, lets flip for it" or you could use it for betting/trading with one another. Entirely up to you how you use it.
Survival - Arena PvP
Removed "Push Back" Globally from all PvP safe zones, What this did was when you were PvP tagged and tried to run into a PvP safe zone it would "bounce" you back to not let you escape into a safe zone, now you can run into one but:
Added Vulnerable when PvP tagged when running into safe zones, Now when you run into a PvP safe zone when you are PvP tagged you will be "Vulnerable" too still PvP as you ran into it while tagged!
You can still fight while in this PvP safe zone!
The PvP Combat tag timer resets back to 15s each time you are hit while in the PvP safe zone! So you can actually finish a fight if you ran into a safe zone as long as you don't let the combat timer run out!
Alternatively you can escape if you can outrun your opponents and the PvP Combat timer (Yes Pearls work before you ask).
Added Titles when you enter & exit /warp arena and /warp south arena that tell you entered the PvP region and tells you if keep inventory is on.
Added chat messages when you enter and exit /warp arena and /warp south arena, in-case you miss the title somehow.
âšī¸ Hopefully this resolves any outstanding issues at /warp south arena, but this is a global change to all PvP safe zones around the world! 
Survival
/roll I created a Dice roll for Carpenter+ to go with my new /flip coin flip script.
Rolls a six sided die and outputs in chat the result with who rolled the die.
Broadcasts to people within a 20 block radius of you.
Updated Permission error messages for anyone below Carpenter when they try to /flip or /roll to tell them they need to /rankup
Reboot fixed /locker having tab-auto complete for usernames @Moderator @Admin Locker using tab complete!
Creative
Removed the permission to access a few worlds you shouldn't have been able to access on Creative! Thanks for the heads up @Tulipss
Survival
Added potion splash to the South flat arena.
Temporarily removed the /recount plugin for a means of trial and error to see if its the cause of this report created today: https://github.com/PirateCraft/dev/issues/134 @creatingwithkass @ir0nar (Cant find the others on discord!)
âšī¸ This is the plugin that tracks all damage that you take over time, so you can recount what damage was done to you, by who, with what & it gives you an overview when you die and what killed you.
If everyone that was awesome enough to make videos to record the lag for me to try and diagnose whats causing this could test again after this mornings server reboot (1 hour from posting this changelog, 10:30am UK time) Then post any updates on that issue My theory is, if a plugin is having to track every single piece of damage taken to a player this would be me first educated guess at being the culprit! Let's find out! PvP team engage!

Some experimental changes to test performance today. So please be patient if these do not work as planned.
Added Distributed Mob Spawns.
This is an test to see if we can improve mob spawning around players by trying to fix another of Mojang's many mistakes. Consider every single player online that is walking around on the overworld loading mobs under them in dark caves that are pointless and never seen! The Idea of Distributed Mob Spawns is to distribute mobs per player instead of a global cap.
This may be when one player is loading too many mobs around causing other players to not get many spawns.
This is untested and can only be tested live to see what effects it has on mobs and farms , I will again say to please be patient and calm if this has untold effects on your farms as this is the only negative effect I can see it having, I'm hoping this plugin targets natural spawning and avoids spawners for your farms, this test should tell us!
This is the plugin description for added detail:
Multiplayer natural mob spawning has a fatal flaw. It uses a global cap that is essentially only dependent on the number of chunks loaded. This means areas with lots of dark areas will get more mob spawns over other areas. This can lead to the situation where some players have many more mobs around them over other players.
Distributed Mob Spawns aims to solve this issue by preventing mob spawns around players who have exceeded the spawn limit around their mob-spawn-radius area.
- Avoid situations where too many monsters spawn in player made dark room monster farms.
- Also avoid situations where no monsters spawn in monster grinder when more than 1 player is online.
Slightly Buffed Animal spawns.
Slightly Buffed Monster spawns.
Testing the performance hit Anti-Xray has on the server. Website
6 Random online users shown on the homepage!
After coming up with the idea, I've been pulling my hair out today to get this working reality but I've built it!
Pulled from my custom online users widget, so when that updates it updates the random players on the homepage too!
You can click them to go to the users page (That needs a whole redesign at some point)
Pirates on the right face the other direction
Auto resizes and hides dynamically based on device/screensize!
Slight caveat, it can display the same user multiple times I tried to fix it, but I got fed up and would have to re-do the Javascript I already made!
Users wobble when you hover, but the right ones flip which I cant figure out why oh well!
Online users widget got a button to refresh/try to connect again if it doesn't Query first time.
I just thought it would be cool to show full 3D skins of some people currently online at random.

Updated the Staff application form success message and email conformation should now be sent. Crew Score Overhaul! /crewscore
Complete overhaul for score calculation by Xeron/@Creeprr
Member count, KDR, and ally count now contribute directly to the score rather than modifying it - large crews will no longer be catapulted to extreme scores.
Reduced score contribution from claimblocks and money.
Increased score contribution from being active.
Score contribution from being active now scales with member count - this should give larger crews more flexibility when it comes to being 'active'.
Fixed issue where negative KDR would not produce a score.
Tweaked score scaling.

Adds better Armour stand limiting (From my report about issues with Armour stands) Will require testing before I can remove the additional plugin I had to add.
Added system for managing grouped entities, This effects only overflow and will not effect entity natural spawning. This has not been set to any specific entities but will be added to Armour stands so should not effect any farms.
Added /mfm list (range) for @Admin so they can check how many mobs are in a range and teleport to that area with a lot of mobs.
Made all Crate animations take half the time! /warp cove Treasure chests!
The animation was set at 6 seconds, I have set it to 3 seconds now and is much faster. Via @ratelicious #🔭archived-suggestions There is only a global modifier for animation speed so it has to be ALL crates not just Vote ones. Survival
This one is just for @Helper & @deleted-role I moved your /warp private (I'm not sure why we didn't call this /warp help or /warp helper, ask me if you want it changed)
Thanks to @claymaester who already built you an island next to the Mod & Admin islands, I removed the one from inside Cove and put you with us! So you now have your own "Nobody can enter this region" apart from @Helper @deleted-role @Moderator and @Admin

As well as releasing other seasonal brews, like you see in real life with companies that release seasonal varients of their brews! Survival
Updated Anti-Cheat plugin
Updated premium suite of essentials plugin Survival
Updated all Popup shop rent prices (/shop8)! Looks like I messed up the algorithm when I made the popup shop group for shops which all the shops at shop8 are!
I must have copied the stalls group algorithm which divided the shop price by 7 (as these are a maximum of 7 days rent) /shop8 were being rented at $5 a week roughly! A little insane. Its all fixed now back at the prices the shops should be. There still super cheap as there tiny shops, so it might increase to maybe ~$40 a week.
People at /shop8 basically been getting free rent! LANDLORD COLLECTS!
So apologies to you @johnkrasinskii you were right in the fact that some shops has insane cheap rent. Popups will now follow all other shops.
âšī¸ The last legacy price system is the whole of shop2/shop3 shops. which are not using the algorithm to calculate prices based on volume and my modifier.
s64 and s62 were moved to the correct "shops" group, they were somehow in their own "shop" group where ive also screwed up and missed the S off "shops" when setting their group.
@grafando your S62 Went from $791 a month to about $387.66 a month! (It was using the default fixed algorithm as It wasn't grouped correctly!)
@Rose1523 your S64 Went from $791 a month to about $898.128 a month! (It was using the default fixed algorithm as It wasn't grouped correctly!) S64 is MUCH bigger than s62, so this one increased a little bit.
âšī¸ Groups of shops
Stalls = Rent 1 day at a time, Maximum extend time of 7 days before someone else can rent. but cost 7* less than shops. There are only 3 stalls in the market now: s26, s25, s27.
Popups = Same volume & modifier algorithm as shops, but maximum 3 weeks rent at 5 days each re-rent. Trying to migrate shops to, so they change hands.
Shops = Infinite Extend time. Max rent of 30 days at a time, each extend is 7 days. Survival
Via #🔭archived-suggestions from @duckmasterizzy We now have Alias for all kits!

âšī¸ I tested /kall but its more items than a full inv so dumps them on the floor, and it also will just spam "no perms" for people that don't have the perms, I could maybe see if I can make it If I can find a way to make it cap only, I will do that! Survival
Please welcome the entirely re-made /shop7 (Version 3)
This was the fastest emptying of all shops, removing all existing, building new shops from scratch and technically making them work in the history of the marketplace. With our amazing new @Build Leader @IndexOutOfMJ & @ScriptX getting this built today I managed to get it live today!
Every shop got bigger s77-s82 was re-made much larger into proper sized shops.
Converted to pop-ups s77-s82 were made as Pop-up shops, with a max extend of 5 days you can extend your rent, you will have a maximum of 3 weeks before they change hands! Not permanent, and no more stalls!
No more obstructing Tree Listening to community feedback about shops not being in-view we have moved the tree (As it was so nice) to over the river! So it wasn't lost! its now the backdrop to /shop7
We lost a shop! Sadly in the process of making all shops bigger and better, we had to make room, this involved having to remove a shop (S83 was picked as the latest one) All existing owners have been re-set to their shop number, but the shops may be in a differnt order/location.
@mionathegreat @BreakableHusk @CrimpyBark @Palmerto @unitedstatesborderpatrol @Jmoo_ Your shops contents were emptied into your inv/echest. You only gained in this process! You are now ready to move back in! Survival
Updated /warp shop board of all shops with recent changes! thanks to @Lullaby93 for the heads up! Echest was also added to /shop7 as requested!

Small change in teleportation so /warps /back /top /spawn /tpa (Not homes yet) Added 0.1 block height to try and stop people falling through blocks. Do report any issues in #📁âbugs-archive
Fix when teleporting player on top of water and resulting in player being placed on bottom, now it should place player where target location was defined
Fix for possible abuse when using /tpa and /tpahere commands while canceling one of those and forcing wrong one to be accepted. Now it will properly accept the one which was offered and clicked in chat.
Added missing permission for @Admin to re-create /warps again! Will allow them to add warps to the GUI for temp events if /warp event is taken/in-use.â Can you make animations? I'm looking for someone to make us an Animated discord server icon since we have @Discord Booster boosted!

Removed all old /ewarp commands (Legacy)
Removed old /email command (Legacy)
Everyone at /warp shop2, /warp shop3 and /warp shop8 Can you please removed everything from your shops DON'T PANIC! You will not lose your shops!
Shop2 & Shop3 has been entirely re-designed by @IndexOutOfMJ & @ScriptX and I need to start preparing everyone to leave, I am taking notes tongiht of who's in what shop so that I have a list for when I re-create the shops!
The plan is shop2 & shop3 will become 1 warp, just /warp shop2. Shop8 people will be moved to shop3 which is also an entirely new marketplace built from the ground up! Then an additional marketplace will be build to take over /shop8 warp (In the near future once a theme is decided, I want pirate themed)!
To re-cap: Everyone that has a shop that will be moved, will be moved into a new shop, the people at the current shop2/shop3 I have you all in #🛒shop2-â already so you can ask questions in there, I will create a new channel for shop8 people.
There are 14 shops at the newly created shop2, and we have 11 people to move from shop2/shop3 which means we will have 3 brand new additional massive shops that we will somehow have to give out, post in #🔭archived-suggestions with a fair idea. Before I did a #🎉âgiveaway-events for people that wanted one of the new shops.

Created a video to showcase this MASSIVE upgrade to the /market https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tpo796R5I-U Smash like and all that jazz.
Added Keep inventory to /warp arena so you can all just smash the shit out of each other and not worry about losing anything! Durability will still be used on items!
Added death re-spawn location as the spawn for /warp arena so if you die in the arena you will re-spawn in the arena.Website/Moderation/Reporting/Support - DO NOT SKIM READ!
Making a report (Support Ticket/Help Desk) should be your go to for any issues you see with badly behaved players or need staff support, please stop messaging staff in direct messages and not reporting issues you see with people as they happen! If its not reported it can't be moderated! Even if its its something "small" like Toxic or agressive behavior, or someone scamming regular, REPORT IT! This lets us build cases on how people play!
This is how we have always moderated! This support system is also not new its been around since September 2020! It uses the same login details you use for the forums! But its private!
https://piratemc.com/support/
This is mostly adding information update for clarity, I have spent today updating the website and created a big information page on the support page to help you understand in a permanent location how moderation works on PirateCraft and the kind of things you need to be reporting, I will not include that information in this post, read the support page!!!
Added a giant green button on the top of the website navigation for reporting players.
This has always been in the information menu and on the footer of every single page on the website AND its in /report in-game and recently posted in #📢âannouncements This is where you need to be reporting issues to staff, and now its impossible to miss! Its he giant green button that says "Support & Reports"
Wrote a clear explanations on "What you should be reporting" after talking to staff they suggested the issue lies with people thinking staff will not listen/want a report, this is the complete opposite! Stop believing plebs in general chat! Now you have a guide!

@Spookem , @burnttoast0295 1, @Naqvity, @dagersh sh, @lurrn you have been given your #🛒âmarketplace shops at /shop3 from the #🎉âgiveaway-events you are ready to move in!
Note for the next #🎉âgiveaway-events Do not buy another shop knowing you have won one, i'm talking to you Piki21! I swear people do things to wind me up.
@Helper Temp mute time doubled!, from 6h to 12h maximum.
Stopping people talking takes nothing away from playing but it can be the most drastic improvement to the rest of the server by just shutting up one person, one person can cause so much toxcity/drama by just talking and is usually the main cause of all issues.
How do you calm down a toddler that's having a tantrum and will not listen to logic or reason? They take a naptime and come back fresh. 12 hours should be enough time for anyone to stop talking trash and go take a break or go sleep off their anger. This is not a platform for rants! This is a shared Minecraft server so treat it as such!
Fixed @Moderator long outstanding bug with temp mutes, Mods now have their temp mutes back at a maximum of 365 days for those that really need a break from talking.
Added Temp Warnings for @Helper up to a maximum of 2 weeks! These are like public notes to warn people not to do something again.
For example a @Helper may /tempwarn gepetrus 2w Stop cheating bountys! Survival

The old server list was https://www.minecraft-index.com/51660-piratecraft-8211-build-working-ships-and-cannons-pir/vote Keep an eye on it to see if the website comes back up, then I can swap it back once its back up.

Freshened up the rule page, adding a lot more information & context.

Wrote a better introduction to rules in general.
Specifically including how players ask if something is a rule, due too much false information being passed around!
Linked to reporting
Updated General Rules 2. to include no Instigating & stalking
Added rule to General Rules: 3. 3. Do not attempt to bypass a punishment by private messaging another staff member
Re-parsed nearly all rules where we listed things, to This includes but not limited to; to explain the list is not extensive.

Building & Claiming Rules 6. New rule; Box bases need to be built underground.

Moved Griefing to under "Building & Claiming Rules" as its own rule with sub-rules & explained how you request regeneration & rollbacks.
Slight re-wording for 2.1 and 2.2.
Added building rule to explain you are allowed to use the ship plugin to make things other than ships, such as turrets, cranes & trains! Just no airships! I saw someone ask this recently so thought I would add it. Specifically no airships as they are used to grief with lava/water/tnt.
Added rule specifically about not using Alternative accounts, this is written in the introduction but was missing from the list of rules.
General rules, added Do not impersonate staff
Chat Rules, added Do not cause drama in public chats. Divert your complaints to either support or the forums.
Updated Genereal Rules 4. 2 and added 4.3. To separate duping from exploiting plugins.
Moved TPS/FPS/Redstone lag from shops to general rules to be generic about any form of lag machine or plugin issues is forbidden.
Created a list of Approved Mods and added this to the rules page https://piratemc.com/topic/approved-client-side-mods/ Survival

No more Traps, Player claims, Grief, Spam Signs, Turf Wars, Giant squares of stone brick at a public warp!
This was all on one side of south, which just happened to be the shortest distance from a public warp that players could claim on! I have expanded the south claim to match the rest of the warps. (I wonder why there was turf wars )
We will build a flat Arena that players can update here that fits in with the south design! @Builder @Build Leader shouldn't take too long if I move south to creative!

Shop owners can now rent the ship regions again!
I figured out the permissions for having a global shop limit, but still limiting shops to 1 per person, but allowing to rent shops from other "groups", which I use to sell ships at /warp ship warps. This will give me many more options later to have separate groups of rentable regions outside of marketplace if you own a shop already. Survival
Updated all SSL certs, so all maps back up!
Blocked mobs being able to hurt you at /warp shop After people using Entermites/Killer bunnies! Not fair if you cant fight back! So these mobs can still spawn and run around, but wont hurt you. I can block mobs if people spam them.
Removed Withers from being spawnable at the marketplace.
Removed being able to make a big door out of portal blocks (Thanks @dpex81 ) Survival
A Pirate trade ship got stuck in Suez Canal, it swayed to one side so much all barrels of rum rolled overboard and washed into the ocean.

New! /doors now have a notification setting in the GUI! This Alerts the Owner of a door when its been toggled! Massive thanks to @ir0nar That had this idea!
Good for testing if a redstone contraption is working with a door!
Could act as a sort of proximity sensor if you set the doors up with redstone! Someone walks on a pressure plate activating your door and it sends you a message in chat with the door name so you know what door it is!
See attached video of it in action!
Gave our BOTM Feb 2021 Prizes: https://discord.com/channels/139382225375330305/648511913206087680/826780274255593523
Updated Resource pack plugin
Updated Live map Crew plugin
Updated death recount plugin, hopefully fixes console errors
Massive thanks to @iwanidev for creating his first custom plugin for the PirateCraft server! The sea's will be a safer place with your addition to the server! Survival
Removed the /msg that was sent to everyone when they logged in telling them that rules had been updated, this should have been plenty enough time to alert everyone of the changes
If you haven't read the latest rules, you can do so here: https://piratemc.com/information/rules/ Survival
Shop owner expiry notifications gained title + sound warnings! Via @Deleted User in #🔭archived-suggestions who didnt see the 4 notifications sent in chat.
You will still all get your chat message notification but in addition to make them super obvious it will send you a title & an anvil sound!
Entirely untested, can someone send me a screenshot if/when they get this title so I know its working!
Website
Added "Shop report" to the support categories via Polsair in #🔭archived-suggestions
https://piratemc.com/support/ Survival
Updated the format of /servertime to show Day name/Month name and made it gold/orange to fit in with the rest of the servertime text. Before it was in the USA format which none of the rest of the world uses! Who does Month Day year!? Should be easier to understand now.
Removed the April fools Acid water! This was fun it should be on more often for odd days! Survival
New! Everyone gained access to a new command /mailignore playerName/uuid/all this blocks /mail being sent to you from a certain player, or entirely from everyone with /mailignore all this works as a toggle to turn it on/off.
You will still be able to be sent mail from @Helper @Moderator and @Admin & Console.
âšī¸ Don't worry I haven't forgotten about /ignore that will come back! The chat developer just screwed everyone over by dropping support for the plugin, requiring us to re-buy it each year as a subscription, which requires re-doing all the configs from scratch, which also means re-writing my custom script that builds our custom /motd It will come back, its just a big old process to get one feature back!

Finally got that Halloween Pumpkin patch competition 2020 blog post up, thanks Kass for doing this!

After a team discussion we are bringing back an old rule and introducing a new rule that we have always followed but never written down.
These will take effect as from today.
3 warnings in 3 months will be escalated into a punishment based on context.
This will not be automated, this will be at staff digression.
Excessive punishments will result in harsher punishments
Punishments are a chance for a player to stop and think about their actions and what they have been punished for; a second chance to be allowed to continue to play.
Collecting excessive punishments will result in much harsher future punishments.
This will not be automated, this will be at staff digression.
These can be found under "Punishments" on https://piratemc.com/information/rules/
These rules are to explain that players can't just keep getting warns/mutes/bans without repercussion if they just ignore these second/third/thirty chances to fix their shortcomings. Survival
Removed Easter gift chest at cove Survival
Cleaned out the cove jails - We had almost 300 pirates in the jails! Now it's much tidier for the team. Survival
Updated the online staff widget on the website for team ranks for all the latest changes! Server Maintenance
Updated OS/Full Server reboot as we had been up a full 169 days
Updated Bungee server quite a few versions
Updated The main server JAR to the latest 1.12.2 server, somehow I was 0.0.1 version behind and its been out over a year! Most likely nothing changed, but just be aware.
Survival/Creative/Play/Test
Updated premium suite of essentials.
This introduced an update that I requested a while ago that i'm excited for! It addd the ability to have 10 randomly picked locations for a warp! To give an example of how this could be used:
We could if we wanted, have when you use /shop2 pick one of 1 of 10 random warp positions, so you could situate a warp right outside a shop(s) so instead of randomly rotating your orientation, it would place you outside a shop randomly.
This may be very confusing, but it may be worth trialing.
This would also be very useful for arenas, having multiple places to spawn when you /warp arena So we may need to get some people to re-make or update the inside of the arena!
When teleporting to a player, now considers if a player is sitting/on a vehicle
:info: We still need someone to make us a flat arena for south in the south design!
:info: I found this changelog graphic I made ages ago that I might start using on changelogs from time to time. Website
Updated website/plugins & fixed a plugin showing an error
Added @Deleted User as ticket agent for support/report tickets https://piratemc.com/support/
Posted @Simbud BOTM Blog post https://piratemc.com/2021/04/15/march-2021-build-of-the-month-competition/
Stay tuned for his #📢âannouncements
The online users tracker on the website is temporarily broken (Im aware of it!) Friday Evening Changelogs
Added /warp jail for @Helper @Moderator @Admin to quickly get to the Cove Jails Via @solembus
Changed the proxy server for an entirely differnt Proxy server for next reboot.
When this comes back up this should fix the online users widget on the website homepage too.
Do report to me in #📁âbugs-archive if after next reboot at 17th 10.30am BST if you get any network issues and make sure to report which client version you are using.
Added optimized Java flags to Proxy server again.
Changed The Veteran channel to be called #💎consultant_council to avoid confusion with the word "Veteran" with people expecting to be added just for long playtime, this was never the case and was purely for consulting advice on changes. Via @atalantaa Creative/Survival
Fixed a bug with @Build Leader @Moderator and @Admin being able to set @Builder rank.
Fixed /addtempbuildercreative alias (For next reboot)
Fixed the Deadmanschest2 crate working at cove
Creative
Wiped everyones playerdata for those that somehow keep corrupting their player data files, I still have no idea how you keep doing this, its not once happened to me! Must be your clients. So those that couldn't get onto creative, you should now. Survival
Added a second spawn location for /warp arena that's picked at random when you use the /warp arena
Updated Jump pads plugin
Updated PvP Manager
New ability to disable the PvPManger checks in regions! I disabled the PvP Manager checks in /warp arena this means you won't get put in jail for PvP abuse and it also means it wont PvP log you if you leave during combat, each is separate so I can re-turn on Tagging/Logging/Blocking commands but I can keep off the Jail! Tell me what you want!
Updated Discord plugin
Updated Custom head plugin Survival
Added flat arena under /warp arena you just turn around when using the warp and jump down through the water! This arena is the same region as the one above it, just incase you want a place to PvP on a flat area until the one at south is done!
Updated the /warp arena region to not include PvP above the arena when looking down onto a fight, so you are now safe to spectate from above the arena on top of the Barrier blocks! Survival
Bumped the Chat filters max CAPS chars from 5 to 6 to allow 5 Char Capital TAG names for /crew which makes no sense as the crew command is not filtered through the caps filter at all and I found no proof for it when searching, but none the less. Closing Ticket #120 @ir0nar for the report and @creatingwithkass for making the ticket!
@ir0nar Can you double check exactly that it was the CAPS filter stopping this, I cant find any proof for it!
Edit I just thought, does the plugin ask you to write in the crew tag without prefixing it with a command? If so my change today should fix it.
https://github.com/PirateCraft/dev/issues/120 Survival
Updated Premium suite of essentials.
The developer added one of my suggestions to manually reset /back via a command for a player with /resetback
I requested this so that we would be able to reset a players back based off any in-game event, we have had quite a few #🔭archived-suggestions recommending various methods (Such as on logout)
I requested this solution as it was the easiest to implement and the most powerful giving me many options being able to implement it within other plugins at plugin events, instead of just 1 thing.
At present it will only be available manually via @Admin there will not be any automated resets yet.
A message will be sent to you if your back was reset, We also have the option to set a custom reason per reset, or silently do it so no message.
@Admin Gained /resetback (playerName) (reason) (-death) (-s) -s is for silent, -death is to reset /dback which is only for back on death, but players have full /back.
Updated NPC plugin
Made a change to the punishment plugin chat priority
Updated resource pack plugin
Blocked a bypass that allowed muted players to talk in Crew/Ally chat by using the GUI Toggle in /crew Now muted players should actually be muted across board. Survival
Re-enabled PvP tagging in /warp arena Via @Deleted User in #🔭archived-suggestions
Same PvP tag as rest of the world, if you log out you will loose!
I have still disabled the kill abuse, so you wont go to jail in the arena!
This should block commands again once you are tagged
https://discord.com/channels/139382225375330305/353285140350500874/833484164782489601
Added #📗âuptime_logs Discord channel via @Awesomecow329 from #🔭archived-suggestions to allow players to organise and publicly broadcast when they will be doing their Crew/player held event! All organisation can go in here too!
âšī¸ This is not for server based events they will always be shown in #📢âannouncements Website
Added Gallery system for logged in users to be able to create profile galleries of projects and groups can create galleries! read the #📢âannouncements for more information https://discord.com/channels/139382225375330305/207479302311116800/834779104569196544
Added new Default Avatar system as the previous one broke. If you have never set a profile image before, a default one will be generated for you! Currently it automatically generates you random a monster!
Added new menu item when logged in "Edit Galleries" to quickly get to your personal galleries.
Tweaked CSS for <kbd> to be a little lighter background color
Updated https://piratemc.com/gallery/ to automatically display Member & group galleries that are public. Website
Fixed long outstanding bug on the Fourms, when you would post an internal link and it would add in massive padding to the top of it.
Got the online widget working again.
Survival
Updated premium suite of essentials.
QOL improvements for in-game menus that are also more consistent @Deleted User should have better layout in-game for custom text docs.
Updated NPC plugin (You know what to test @Tulipss !). Website
Made forum index & titles text bigger, added Pin icon before sticky posts to make them pop and made the titles bold.
Fixed "latest topics" menu item being highlighted in the main menu when you are on that page.
Added "Forum Index" under "Forums" menu in header to go to forum index, you could get to this by Hovering and clicking Forums, but it wasn't that clear. Survival
Reset the positions of every NPC
Moved Perry out of the Jails to put him in the offices at cove.
Made a backup of NPC locations so I can easily reset them!
Thanks to @Tulipss who stole perry then told me he stole perry to alert me that the NPC plugin wasn't blocking stealing them.
Moved the Auctions NPC back to the office as theres no current Auction on. I move him out when we have auctions!
I hid the hologram for the "Event shack" I have at cove beach.
NPC's will now be blocked from being stolen in boats! Website
Re-connected the blog posts to Facebook & Twitter for auto publishing, this breaks every time I enable it again! I need to find an alternative plugin to auto publish when we publish blog posts/changelogs!

I created a TikTok for PirateCraft, I'm now the "hello fellow kids" meme
Follow me on TikTok, I have no idea what I'm doing, if its possible to share a TikTok account for people to post that might be funny
https://www.tiktok.com/@piratecraft Website
Made the sub domain mc.piratemc.com when opened in a web-browser redirect to the main website, but just in-case the redirect doesn't work I made a micro website for it explaining that's the URL used to connect to the server and I gave it an SSL certificate, because why not? HTTPS baby.
I checked the access logs, and its surprising how many people think that's also the website, so instead of the default useless web server message, it redirects! Survival

Added a temporary admin claim outside of /warp south that contains a flat platform as requested by @ir0nar
You can pearl + fight safety on this platform! Just until we get a proper area for you all Creative
A while ago I mentioned wanting to have the inside of /warp arena automatically change every X time in #🔭archived-suggestions people liked this idea!
On creative I have pasted in the arena at /spawn along with the inside empty shell. You can see the locations for the 2 spawns in the gaps each side.
The arena inside is 65*66 (I know ) depth is 18 blocks to the bottom of the wall, but it can go down to bedrock, so it can be another 65 blocks deep if you wanted.
The two cut outs are the spawn locations for /warp arena one will be picked at random when used, so you have locations for the spawn points, if we wanted 4 spawn points we should do this earlier before people start building!
The only way to get a copy/paste of the template is to get someone trusted on spawn to copy it from spawn to your plot that you'll have to trust them on.
âšī¸ Once you have an arena made, take a screenshot and post it into #🔭archived-suggestions as a suggestion for an arena that could be swapped too.
âšī¸ If any @Builder wants to take on the task of making small adjustments to the current arena, I've also pasted the latest arena onto the HubFlat world at /warp Cove (this warp works) for you to update already!
There's a hollow house at present that needs its interior made if someone wants to tackle this! New rank Helmsman
Created a new rank Helmsman for @Discord Booster at present the only benefits are:
Green username with Aqua badge
Overhead Name Tag
âšī¸ This is entirely untested, so if the current @Discord Booster could tell me if the discord plugin syncs this role automatically to you in-game as a group that would be awesome! /checkrank
Survival
Updated Anti Cheat quite a few versions.
Updated Anti Cheat checks, massive thanks to @encode42
Updated Premium suite of essentials
Should fix /top onto fences not sending you directly down to earth with the force of a thousand suns.
Closes issue #117 Thanks to @eisengraf & @creatingwithkass Server
Updated Java
Survival
Removed BottleXP plugin, I checked its use over the last few months and its used once or twice a week by a couple of people. Waste of resources! (Nobody's even used it since last Monday!)
Play
Removed premium suite of essentials via ticket 126 Jakkeyyy @creatingwithkass Must have slipped onto the server with my recent updates to all the servers of it. New Warp south Arena
Added a new arena to /warp south that is entirely flat, has a re-spawn location, quick to access, No keep inventory as requested!
No keep inventory!
Entirely flat
PvP zone is the island+the water
Little orange parrots mark the borders!
Quick jump pads from /warp south
Re-spawn at the start of the bridge at South.
Working Drawbridge to shut off people coming in easily!
Massive thanks to the builders @atalantaa @ir0nar @Pjeturr @Deleted User @godsdead
âšī¸ Open to changes at any time on Creative get in contact with the @Builder team for changes to be made to it. Survival
Removed the EnderPearl block on the entire of south (Which included the arena Region)
This was on due to the drama caused by the players that had claimed land here before and was requested that south have a pearl block to stop them escaping into a safe zone.
This does mean that players Are able to escape the arena into a PvP safe Zone
âšī¸ Anti Border Hopping is still active, so players that are Tagged in PvP will still not be able to run into a PvP protected zone (Outside the arena) to escape PvP this way, but pearls bypass this as the developer forgot to check for it!
âšī¸ If you wanted to be able to run away from PvP in /warp south into a PvP free zone to pussy out on a fight, the correct wording for a #🔭archived-suggestions would be;
Set the South Arena region as a exclusion to the PvP tagged anti border hopping, to allow people to run to saftey while PvP tagged into a PvP safe zone (Anywhere outside the arena) Survival
@Moderator @Admin Gained ability to Leave the locker if they locker themselves using /mvtp to get out.
@Moderator @Admin Gained ability to use staff chats in locker.
@Admin Gained ability to use WorldEdit commands in the Locker to Regen bad things in the sand. Survival - Missives Clean up
Spring clean on reducing the amount of missives we have in chat.
Disabled all insult & joke Missives - Removed 13 missives. This was taken over by "Perry" at cove Naughty parrot!
Removed a few duplicate missives that said similar things, for example we had 3 missives that explained you could use /track that's all in 1 now.
Edited: Requesting staff help missive to use Support system instead of creating a forum thread for direct staff communication.
Updated Suggestions/Bugs be reported to Discord instead of Forums as this is what people do now!
Fixed formatting on 90 Missives (Disabled ¤t) that had double colors added for no reason.
Added Missive about reporting players using the Support Ticket system.
Added Join email newsletter Missive https://piratemc.com/newsletter/ Survival
When people try to use /gm 1 or /gamemode it will auto send them to creative now.
Added Missive that if you become a @Discord Booster you'll get the Helmsman rank in-game.
Allowed a specific swear bypass for @Helper @Moderator I will post in the #👑staff_general-old Chat which one! So you can moderate people with that word in their username.
Changed RegEx for URL filter to allow claims to be trusted/access trust etc to BE members with /trust group.be that thought it was posting the belgium top level domain! BE leaders @Taulov @lazydog11 @Bazurka @cat27 @SpikyCactus_ @BGraph This ones for your Crew. Survival - Custom Locker command!
I created a custom /locker <username> <reason> command for @Moderator @Admin (Been on my to-do list for years!)
Requires a reason.
Sends the player to the locker, Automatically sets a warning for the reason given, which is also sent to the player so they know why they have been sent!
Checks if the user is in the locker, if they are it clears their inventory. This is for those that have collected multiple Sand Dollars in one sitting, so they can get out quicker a second time!
This means that Locker punishments will be logged, players will be given a reason as the form of a warning & it will clear anything they have established in their inventory previous to prevent cheating it.
I created a custom /unlocker <username> command for @Moderator @Admin to remove yourself from the locker or another player.
Don't use <username> and it'll run on yourself!
It checks if you/player is in the locker first before attempting to teleport out of locker! Survival
I created a /flip command for Carpenter+ This was originally requested by @Deleted User in #📁âsuggestions-archive
Wasn't worth an entire plugin for so I made this today.
Flips a coin 50/50 and outputs in chat the result with who flipped the coin.
Broadcasts to people within a 20 block radius of you.
âšī¸ All it does is randomly pick Heads or Tails and outputs it to chat, this is so you can decide on things with a flip in-game. For example; "Who goes first, lets flip for it" or you could use it for betting/trading with one another. Entirely up to you how you use it. Survival - Arena PvP
Removed "Push Back" Globally from all PvP safe zones, What this did was when you were PvP tagged and tried to run into a PvP safe zone it would "bounce" you back to not let you escape into a safe zone, now you can run into one but:
Added Vulnerable when PvP tagged when running into safe zones, Now when you run into a PvP safe zone when you are PvP tagged you will be "Vulnerable" too still PvP as you ran into it while tagged!
You can still fight while in this PvP safe zone!
The PvP Combat tag timer resets back to 15s each time you are hit while in the PvP safe zone! So you can actually finish a fight if you ran into a safe zone as long as you don't let the combat timer run out!
Alternatively you can escape if you can outrun your opponents and the PvP Combat timer (Yes Pearls work before you ask).
Added Titles when you enter & exit /warp arena and /warp south arena that tell you entered the PvP region and tells you if keep inventory is on.
Added chat messages when you enter and exit /warp arena and /warp south arena, in-case you miss the title somehow.
âšī¸ Hopefully this resolves any outstanding issues at /warp south arena, but this is a global change to all PvP safe zones around the world! Survival
/roll I created a Dice roll for Carpenter+ to go with my new /flip coin flip script.
Rolls a six sided die and outputs in chat the result with who rolled the die.
Broadcasts to people within a 20 block radius of you.
Updated Permission error messages for anyone below Carpenter when they try to /flip or /roll to tell them they need to /rankup
Reboot fixed /locker having tab-auto complete for usernames @Moderator @Admin Locker using tab complete! Creative
Removed the permission to access a few worlds you shouldn't have been able to access on Creative! Thanks for the heads up @Tulipss Survival
Added potion splash to the South flat arena.
Temporarily removed the /recount plugin for a means of trial and error to see if its the cause of this report created today: https://github.com/PirateCraft/dev/issues/134 @creatingwithkass @ir0nar (Cant find the others on discord!)
âšī¸ This is the plugin that tracks all damage that you take over time, so you can recount what damage was done to you, by who, with what & it gives you an overview when you die and what killed you.
If everyone that was awesome enough to make videos to record the lag for me to try and diagnose whats causing this could test again after this mornings server reboot (1 hour from posting this changelog, 10:30am UK time) Then post any updates on that issue My theory is, if a plugin is having to track every single piece of damage taken to a player this would be me first educated guess at being the culprit! Let's find out! PvP team engage!
