Is the server down?

Working fine for me.

Looks like one of the new snapshots (20w16a) messes with nether fort locations. 20w15a seems to be stable enough (out for 4 weeks with no critical bug fixes since) if we want to update the server.

That way we get to start generating the new nether biomes, and a nether fortress is still located conveniently in the path of my nether rail.

I'm still 100% in favour of said update.

Are you familiar enough with running servers to ask Araph to give you admin access?

[TD1]

I'm afraid not. I'm relatively computer illiterate.

[Bumber]

I guess I'll try then.

Hey everyone! Bumber is now an admin on the server and has access to all of the server administration tools, so he can enable structures, add mods, whatever everyone agrees on. I made a backup of the world as well, so we can always revert if something breaks during experimentation.

Sorry I've been so absent as an admin - I haven't had a lot of time for side stuff. I've left the server up because I always disliked building things only for a server to mysteriously disappear when the host gets bored, so I'll keep it up as long as people are still playing.

Alternatively, if everyone is tired of vanilla, we can retire this map (i.e. put the backup on Dropbox for anyone who wants it to download) and create a new server with a bunch of mods.

Lol, I've tried starting on this server twice now, and both times I died in some frustrating way and then lost my stuff, so I got discouraged. Might go back for round three. I'd like mods, though, yeah, but if people are already very invested in this world, I wouldn't want to separate them from it.

If we're going for mods, can I suggest Biomes O' Plenty, and Redstone++? The second one doesn't even need a new world, I think.

[Grand Sage]

Great to hear that stuff is happening again!

I am personally not someone who likes mods, unless its a full modpack like FTB or Tekkit or something. But Im not playing on the server right now, because its not updated to 1.15... are there any plans for an update?

I think we can get a lot of fun out of vanilla just by agreeing on some projects or things to do, like a central marketplace where we can buy and sell stuff for our individual projects. Since we dont have a lot of players, I dont think stealing and griefing is a big concern there.

[bloop_bleep]

Yeah, I was gonna build a Coliseum of sorts, which can pit players against hostile mobs that are automatically fed into the arena. Could also be PvP or co-op. That might be a nice project, right?

Which is partially why I'd like Redstone++. It adds some new functionality while retaining the original feel of redstone in Minecraft.

EDIT: Actually, apparently it only supports up to Minecraft 12.2. Bummer.

[Grand Sage]

Knowing redstone, you can probably do this without any mods, especially with the new 1.15 features Do say if i can help with the project!

[Bumber]

I think I've got the hang of enabling structures and updating.

Just need to restore a backup from a failed attempt where the structures didn't generate.

Who died in Fort Squidward? Saw a bunch of items scattered on the ground. (Including some of Camp Squidward's nether brick, for some reason. ) I'll put the equipment in a chest once I finish restoring the backup.

Edit: Looks like the fort's livestock pens got burned down, too. Hope that was an ill-advised attempt at getting cooked meat, rather than griefing. Also hoping that the unreasonable number of gold and diamonds left scattered weren't stolen.
