1. Problem, (I’m guessing from my understanding of the title) is that the server should be more cohesive with newcomers as if they have 1.13 clients it’ll work better for them. e.g. not glitch them out.

If the top problem is not the case, it might be better if we put an alert out to new players that the server is still on 1.12 (like make it stupid clear, give them a starting item which tells them even) so they can change their clients to 1.12 so it’s cohesive.

2. I’ve been seeing a lot of people struggling to leave spawn, with many of them wandering how to do /wild if it is such a thing. Unfortunately they don’t realise they have to do /warp n,e,s,w to get to a sign which allows them to do a sort of /wild, and even then not get that far.

We could solve it by providing some interactive signs at spawn which take them to the warps, perhaps it could be like a hanging iron block or something like the old magnetic blocks they used to hang off the end of ships to use a compass, with like signs on the sides to press to take them to said warps.

3. Creation of like “base crews”, so rather than them just being civilian, etc. They can go find a sort of faction or something to join. Crews can volunteer to be “base crews” and have people join (only those who’ve never been in a crew) without being invited. It could just help them to feel more included if that’s what they’re feeling like.

4. Some of the new players are just plain dumb, uninterested or impatient to play. I’ve had people ask if they can go /wild, I try to tell them multiple times I can take them pretty much to the edge of the map as I have 2 set homes basically polar opposite on the map. Some of these players just completely blank me and then disappear. No clue why.

 

I’ve no clue if it is the server, us helpers or the actual players coming themselves. Some of them just don’t want to put the input in to get the ships.
