The obligatory “Plz update to 1.12” …. Triggered.

Minecraft updates, the best time for a server owner… *plz pass me beer*

So just to recap; Me getting asked to update to 1.12/Asking for an ETA, can I ask you get my back? and sort these idiots out? Nothing infuriates me more than someone asking for an update to be pushed out or an ETA.  People with brain cells understand this requires  patience, trial and error and testing over a few weeks. Pre-warning that this drives me insane and I will respond with fire and destruction, so please do reply to the person asking before I get a chance too.

Bugs will come, plugins will break, and patches will need to happen over time, please have patience.

1.12 is Live on the test server.

How do I join it?

• Do /server test in-game and /server survival to get home or
• Put this in your server browser survivaltest.piratemc.com to bypass the main server.
  
• Test server is its own server, hosted on a completely separate machine, world backup was from 21/6/2017 at around 10am GMT. All your inventory/chests/builds will be from this time.

Test server rules

• As always nothing will be saved from this server/world, so do as you please, blow everything up use all your resources, none of it will effect the main server when we update.
• You are here to test everything you possibly can, the faster we figure out bugs, the quicker we can convert the main server to 1.12.
• it’ll be up 24/7 so come as you please, bring your friends.
• Same rules as main server.

Known broken plugins and bugs with 1.12

• Chairs are fully broken, need to test an alternative, devs given up.
• Chunk Spawn Limiting, AKA limiting mobs per chunks are broken, need to find an alternative.
• Vote gamble gifts are broken, This will be hard to find an alternative that is this good and has this much configs, I hope the dev gets around to updating it.
• XPboosting, this is broken, Im hoping the dev will update it.

Differences from main server and test server

• Discord isn’t on, it works I’ve tested it, but I cant have 2 servers at once on the discord.
• Were using the latest version of the anti-cheat with updated configs.
• There’s no backwards compatibility with 1.11, you will need to use 1.12.
• Im not using the new redstone algorithm im testing on the main server atm.

Fixed

• I fixed the terrible network issues from the test server that we had before, it should be as fast as the main server.

How can I help?

Please play, do anything and everything you can think of on the test server, use every command, use every feature, check all your stuff and report any issues here.

Please have patience.
