It’d be good to include foreign embassies anyways. Republica Aeterna consist of 3 major up and coming cities; and I believe it would be beneficial for your Kingdom and my merry group of pirates to have some “diplomatical” connection….

That means we  make the PUN, the Pirate craft United Nations, one BIG embassy, with diff. floors and departments for all willing organizations that want to be part of PUN. This includes everything from organized crime units, pirate crews, to kingdoms and Empires.. emphasis on pirate crews. Or we can do individual embassies in cities, which I see that you are doing.

One block deep will not be enough for the majority of ships. It would need to be entirely built on top of the water. Work is going to be keeping me busy today and possibly tomorrow, but guess what?

I hit Gunner… it gave me a stack of TNT, plus I get more every 3.5 hours.

I now have almost 3 stacks of TNT. I have a lot more gunpowder, but I need sand! Donations are welcome, since I’ve already spent a few hundred dollars on sand alone for the top-clearing…. and both Skyshop and Shop seem to be out of stock. I’ve put in a request with Ma_c_hi at /warp wolf to start stocking some.

As a personal to-do list and for anyone else who is curious:

– Finish clearing out the under-tunnel

– Line walls and floor with Stone brick (build up to level 64 with stone brick – this is so anyone falling out of ships or jumping into the canal can still get out)

– Fill the Level 62 line with water

– Drop the water from the middle of the canal toward the edges

[Azuries and I were thinking that maybe we could do portcullises (sp?) on either end, where that final wall between Canal and Ocean is. Have a bunch of people gather their ships and host an opening ceremony! Raise the gate, let people sail through. It can be removed later, but I have fireworks ^^]

Once the actual functioning canal is finished, these are my plans:

– Round out the edges created by cutting through the land, make it look natural again

– Have a road on either side, one for running/horses and the other with a minecart rail

– Have drawbridges dotted along the way (with pressure plates to activate? Is that possible @Saturn?)

– Claim multiple areas along the canal, build cool statues!

I’ll compile all the screenshots I have later into a Dropbox folder so everyone can flip through them. ^^

This is due to recent optimizations for mega-farms.

I outlined some changes here: http://piratemc.com/topic/planned-maintenance-monday-evening/#post-5930

In general, here’s what I changed:

• I Added a plugin chunkspawnerlimiter to limit the amount of Mobs that are allowed per chunk, so for those people that had 500 chickens in one tiny hole, you were causing massive lag to the server, now times this by hundreds of players and you get unstable TPS, then lag, at the moment, im using the plugins default settings, which says: Animals:50, Monster:50, NPC: 50, other: 500, I have just seen the option to notify players in that chunk if stuff has been culled, I will turn that on.
  Im assuming this is the main cause of destruction to farms.
• I also updated bukkits settings to limit animals or mobs can spawn in a chunk, monsters are set to 60 from 70, animals are set to 13 from 15. But I cant see this having an affect since its always been on 15 since we started 2 years ago, and people have had thousands of animals in one plot.
• Changed frequency of mobs; Monsters used to spawn every tick of the server, which is insane, this is now every 13 ticks, So mob-farming may be slightly slower now.
  Animals spawning naturally were on every 600 ticks!!! Which is also absolutely insane for a default, I moved this down to 300 ticks, so animals should be more common around the world now.
• Greatly reduced “entity-activation-range” for animals and monsters, this may need to be changed, as it may effect gameplay.
  

  Controls the range in blocks that entities will become “activated” – entities outside of this range will tick at a reduced rate to prevent server lag. When changed

• nerf-spawner-mobs is now on, This is another option I may need to revert, it was done as a test for lag/tps.
  

  When enabled, mobs which originate from a mob spawner will not have any AI. They will generally only be affected by water movement, with the exception of blazes which will still emit fireballs and float up and down.

As for claims, that is based on something you have done in-game @captainvenoms for instance, if you had a claim transferred to you then you decided to abandon it, it will remove that claim block area from your claim block count.

I have have checked out my farms and reapers farms and neither of ours have been effected, I can only assume the farms that were had a great amount of entities in them!

But no fear, I will happily replenish farms and hand out dye for lost sheep, but you have to apply in this thread, to acknowledge the recent changes.

Now, please, please read through those changes, as only you as the players will be able to tell me how badly this effects gameplay, my entire optimization was to remove as much lag as I could.

@Azuries and myself are doing work on the cove, we really need to re-do the signs for getting around it though, I think we need to follow a pattern for all the signs though Azuries, so like the top line is always the name of the area we are poiting towards, we should pick a color for all names http://ess.khhq.net/mc/ maybe also bold, then on the second line directions or arrows to it.

I can also supply “Arrow” heads, that are skinned heads like arrows for pointing.

Signs are slowly being added all over Cove. In addition, up the stairs and to the right is a new train station. This includes a stop for the track to Covetown as well as a renovation of the Arena tracks. These tracks will now move one direction, and make infrequent stops in Cove, at the plugin demos, and at arena. The underwater route is also about to be updated.

Also be on the lookout for villagers in the walls to trade with. Many are marked with signs, colored signs belonging to villagers who’ve already maxxed out their trading capabilities. (As in trading for their last item won’t give a new trade)

More to come!

I don’t like the idea of removing a warp that’s been payed for after a set time; perhaps make it similar to claims where if a user stops logging on for, say, 6 months (longer because its a payed for option) then they lose their warp.

It could also be a reassigned thing, for instance if someone comes back after their warp is removed, since it’s already payed for, they can reassign it to another place.

I think we have enough subscriptions to worry about without having to worry whether or not a pre-paid feature is going to run out.

However if you REALLY want to go that route, I’d say you could make month to month warps, and just make them cost less. $8 for permawarp, maybe 1-2$ for that month. It could even be an added prize to BOTM, one month of free warping for the server’s veiwing pleasure. Incentive to have people donate more often, even if it’s a small amount.

You could also make warps more expensive for permanant status, and include claim blocks. For instance if you say permawarp is $10 and you get x amount claim blocks; but those who already paid the 8$ for warp will remain permanent (without the added blocks) then new purchasers and old alike will be happy with the fairness. It’s a raise in price for future warp buyers but they also get a small prize for doing so.

Hi to all. This channel actually would open the way for the western ocean, but the southern ocean (the bigger one) is another story.

I have plans for a channel (a natural looking one) at 550 2900 (separating deserts), just busy with other stuff like roads and so xD

Theres also another smaller sea south east than can be easely conected. Thats also in my list.

I might sound too ambicious, but with time I think I might make it. xD

When that channel starts ill open a topic too. Meanwhile good luck with this one!

When the work starts between west and south ocean we might work together, at -6000 1000 aprox!

Progress is going well; the top portion of the canal is almost completely done. However we are running out of tools, so please if you have any TNT, Shovels, or Pickaxes of any type (even used and low grade); donate these items at the donation house on the west side of the canal.

Soon we will be digging under the 1 block layer to the desired depth; but please if you join this project leave the 1 block layer! We will need it to place the water so it will fill the space evenly, and boatswain helmets will be provided during the last phase: clearing the 1 block layer and letting the water fill everything.

Please note there is an expansive series of ravines under the canal. If you wish to explore and mine them before it’s all underwater, please do so now!
