Quote from: mjoll9 on Apr 14, 2021, 11:20 AMI'm pretty sure a decent chunk of remaining players, especially older ones, only stick around for the content plugins like pyrofishing/mining/slimefun. If those were to go I think you'll see a dip in players.
Then clearly we won't do that, but... Tell us what you think would help. Our playerbase kinda dipped a lot now and we need to be appealing to newer players too, so maybe give feedback from that perspective too?
53
For a while now, several people have been telling me that Survival should go back to its simpler times, and that we are way too complicated now, with too many plugins.
Now, I'm not one to rush into anything like that, so I think I found a nice way to start, without alienating half of the community.

You tell us what you mean by that, and exactly what you think should be done to survival (eg: Remove Slimefun), we can then make polls, see what the rest of the people think and do changes based on that.
But if the majority votes against such a change, we will not do it as we do not want to risk losing the remaining players.

NOTE: I ask you to understand that some times, even if there is popular support for a decision, we may veto that if we find it to be damaging to the server in any way

------
I kinda wrote the whole post focusing of the example of Slimefun but this post is not at all asking to remove Slimefun and other such plugins, I am merely asking you, the players, what do you want added/removed from survival and if someone says something concise enough we can start a poll based on that.
Sorry, my bad, should've been more clear.

So I am specifically interested to hear from our premium users and patrons, but also from everyone else.
We were discussing about potentially supporting a charity with $50 / mo if at the end of the month we can spare the funds after covering the costs.
The charity has to be a legitimate one, and we were thinking either a suicide prevention non profit or a mental health non profit, but we are open to other suggestions.
If this gets massive support, we will look into finding a charity, share that with the community and perhaps ask the community again if they are fine with the charity we have chosen.
If you believe our small contribution can be put to better use another way, we are interested in hearing that too!
It's about time that SFT started giving something back after getting support from a lot of awesome people over these 10 years.
55
Right, so this situation clearly degenerated.
I will unban, but please, in the future try to be civil.

I have already discussed what happened with Autpek and I can see he was not abusing his rank, just... you can't expect discord admin team to be punching bags and take everything, if you keep bothering a bee, it will sting you eventually, even if it kills it.
56
We have decided to give you one more chance, however we ask that you not abuse it and risk turning it into a "never unban"

THIS PROJECT IS ON HOLD UNTIL MY LIFE GETS LESS BUSY. I HAVE A CERTIFICATION TO TAKE AND A LOT OF STUFF ATM SO CANNOT DO THIS RIGHT NOW.

Death coordinates is back! But with a few tweaks:
- It now costs 25k emp instead of 10k emp.
- It is now not available in nether/end

Quote from: MsDanteMoon on Mar 16, 2021, 11:16 AMI'm getting a little bit of mixed signals and want some clarification;

You said in your original post that ' This will be our implementation of Anarchy.' However just now you said that it's not really supposed to be like anarchy, I'm just a little confused on whether or not you intended this server to be like SFT's version of an anarchy server (but with modifications)

Also what kind of hacks would be consider server breaking?

No hate or anything on the new server, just wanted to know  :heart:
Not anarchy, it's our take of Anarchy xd meaning elements of anarchy but not all.
As for destructive mods, idk nukers, server laggers, crashers
61
You have been unbanned, however, I would like to caution you that we will not be as lenient in the future and we also have a new rule that says if you get banned for the same reason (or approximately the same) 3 times you get banned forever.
62
Quote from: MsDanteMoon on Mar 15, 2021, 05:31 PMSince it's supposed to be like anarchy will you allow hacked clients?
Not really supposed to be like anarchy. And up to a level. If it's destructive to the server, no, we won't allow it

Quote from: Nubbun on Mar 15, 2021, 09:35 AMWill pvp be enabled/will you be able to toggle it?
Honestly, haven't asked myself this question. full time on most likely.

I am going to start working, this week, on a new server. It's a vanilla Minecraft server, called Survival Lite Hardcore.
Here's how it's going to be different from Survival and other servers:

- This server will be whitelisted, and you will have to apply
- The server will have a single world, but considerably larger than Survival worlds
- This server will be as close to vanilla as possible. Meaning no economy, no fun plugins (Eg: Vehicles, pyrofishing/mining, mcmmo)
- This server will not have an economy
- This server will be in hardcore mode. Meaning if you die... well you die. And you won't be able to play any more for a while (To be determined, 2-12h). Oh and no health regen.
- This server will not have staff, instead survival staff will moderate the chat (seing as we will generally whitelist those who already are a familiar presence on SFT, this should be possible)
- This server will block dupes and glitches, but we will try to leave as much as possible to you (pistons, hoppers) with no limits, however if you create something that is lagging the server extremely, we may remove `
- This server will have TNT, creepers and all such stuff enabled
- Protections will be done by the players, there will be no staff to help with that
- The server will have a small max players to limit the lag (12-20 players at most)
- There will have to be some monetizing to cover hosting, but at a minimum.  It will be EULA compliant as we are, and we are still deciding on that aspect. Playing on the server will be free though, perhaps implement a priority queue system, TBD based on demand.
- This won't be for everyone. It is highly possible that you can work for weeks, build a base, gather all the loot then permanently die and lose everything and nobody's going to help you recover it.

This will be our implementation of Anarchy. We don't intend to punish griefing or looting.
Thoughts?


THIS IS BEING DELAYED DUE TO REAL LIFE STUFF! IT'S MAYBE GOING TO PERHAPS HAPPEN EVENTUALLY THO

We are removing the XPBank plugin in 48h, as we found out there are still bugs causing people to lose their stored xp.
If you used XPBank, please withdraw all your XP ASAP, otherwise you don't need to take any action

https://github.com/TheBusyBiscuit/Slimefun4/wiki/Electric-Furnace
There are currently 3 tiers with increasing speeds, up to 4x cooking speeds. You can use them to smelt ores and cook food. If you don't have a power station, you can use the one at /warp airstrip, just drop your furnace near a connector and start cookin'

Quote from: George on Mar 08, 2021, 05:52 PM50 is nowhere near enough
Actually they are with pipes... for anyting except lag machines. Every hopper lags the server a ton.
68
Yep, sorry everyone but hoppers are really laggy :S
69
So, until now, we had separate commands to play MurderMystery's many maps: /murder /village /rooftops.
However, today, I consolidated those commands into one:

- /murder <map>. EG: /murder village or /murder rooftops or /murder terminal
- Typing just /murder in chat will show you the available arenas without actually taking you to one!

Good news! We now have parachutes! Check out /parachuteshop and see you around soaring through the skies!
To use: While in air, right click on the parachute chest to deploy parachute. While back down, shift + right click to get it back.
71
Today we found a critical issue/incompatibility with Tractors and Slimefun Backpacks.
Basically tractors can be used to dupe.

Due to that, I have removed permission from everyone to use tractors.
If that bothers you, I was told you can achieve a similar result with mcmmo (auto replanting), so I would suggest looking into that instead.

For the people that built tracks for tractors:
- Don't worry, I will be making a new KART but based on vehicles rather than tractors in the next days.

What you need to do:
- If you have any tractors, stop using them
- If you have a tractor that is already spawned and you are not able to put back in its chest, please make a ticket in #support and leave a warp to the tractor, an Admin can come and help you with that.
- If you would like to use tractors purely for decoration, that is fine (eg: if you already have them deployed that way). However, they will no longer be obtainable / useable.

Sorry everyone, I liked the tractors too :S
- We will not provide refund for existing tractors (since this is an emergency removal of tractors and not something we planned)

We have a Valheim server, put together by our wonderful @saywhat2365
It is currently being tested, and extremely in beta / vanilla.

Server IP: 51.222.8.108:2456
Password: DM me on discord and I will give it to you if you are a known community member.

NOTE: This requires Valheim to play

So, we've deployed a possible fix for XPBank, but in order to do this, we had to reset the XPBank database.
We are not 100% sure this has fixed the issue, but we think it may. Please use with caution and know losing XP is possible, while not likely.

I guess now we will have to test the plugin for a few weeks, so if you notice any xpbank xp loss, please bring it to our attention, and we'll take a decision later: if the bug is still present, we probably will remove the plugin, if the bug is fixed, we are keeping it.
74
Please withdraw all your XP from XPBank and don't use it until we say it is safe to use again. We discovered a bug (xp loss), and in order to fix it we need to use another storage method for the db, meaning any XP still in the bank by then will have been lost.

Quote from: American_Walrus on Feb 23, 2021, 06:53 PMThis is not a bad thing, but you guys need to make sure you keep yourselves accountable as well. If someone applies for an unban, and the Manager+ team decides that the ban was an overreaction or completely unnecessary, that ban should not be something that is considered towards this rule. Ignoring the idea of potential bias, consider the fact that you have children and young adults in staff roles, and things can go wrong sometimes.

Also, make sure you read and consider what Frac asks about in the reply above mine because it's a valid concern.



That's definitely something we will have to consider and there is definitely going to be owner involvement in special cases. If you could help me list some repeatable ban reasons that you feel should not go to a global ban, let me know and we can make adjustments
