There were over 1300 vehicles in the game. This is due to a bug in epoch, that fails to properly limit vehicles.
This ruined the gameplay as vehicles could be found everywhere and people could get rich at all times.
Also, destroyed vehicles weren't removed.

All of the above issues caused the framerate to drop considerally.
What I have done to fix this:

- Added a database task that runs every day that removes all destroyed vehicles
- Added a database task that deletes all vehicles with a last access date of more than 3 days (get in and out of your vehicle at least every 3 days to keep it).

Will tell rally to take a look at this thread.

If anyone thinks they can do better, then volunteer.

Setup your own server locally to test on, create the scripts, test them out, pass them to rally for him to look over and then place onto the server.

If you can't, don't complain that the two people working on it cannot get it done as fast as you want. Volunteer work is done for free.

What is going to cause the server to shutdown this time is the people complaining too much. Those that are complaining  are not doing. We want you to point out the bugs, glitches, etc. However don't point out the problems and demand they get fixed without having a solution of your own, or else the volunteers will just simply quit and then we won't have a server to play on.


Seriously, quit bitching about things not getting fixed fast enough if you cannot come up with a fix for it yourself.

May 14, 2014, 11:00 AM
Alright here is how it works, I will start the story by saying four words:

Jamie drank a bottle

Now you can respond by saying four woods to keep the story going, goofy, serious or random. Your choice, please keep this clean so everyone can read. Thanks =)

example: of old spoiled milk

example response: and got food poisoning

ect. My first post is "Jamie drank a bottle"

Interested to see how this story ends. The story can end any time and we can start over again.


NOTE: This forum game was taken from another forum

We can do that, sure.

PS: I have reset the world, the old world can be found at /warp w5. Doing this to give people a clean startup world.

Still needing staff !

Nice,  will we ever get a list of the top 5 richest again like there used to be?
Possibly, looking in to it.
what about the manager+ team that have a lot of spawned in money, wouldn't it mess it up?

We're working on a money top command that will exclude manager+

does these new plugins apply for all sft minecraft servers or just main?
Just survival for now, although we might add to pixelmon too when it updates to 1.8

General Announcements / A new age for SFT
May 10, 2014, 04:55 PM
I am proud to announce that we now have our very own Economy plugin and Chest Locking plugin.
Why replace the working ones? Basically because they were outdated and did not support UUID's (which are coming in minecraft).

What's different?
- The SFTConomy plugin (made by a**hole) was made to closely resemble iConomy so there shouldn't be anything different between it and the old iConomy plugin
- The SFTBolt plugin (made by ColesyM)  had to be changed a bit because now, instead of playernames the sign protection was done via UUID's. This added the need to give each bolt its unique id and to store bolts in a MySQL db rather than in the world. This may seem to complicate the process a bit, but it's just the matter of getting acquainted with teh slightly different commands/procedures. It's all self explanatory, and all can be found out by typing /lock.
You will need to convert your existing deadbolts to the new system, thankfully ColesyM made this a very easy process - You just have to right click on your old signs twice.
The old signs will still protect your chest, but it's highly recommended that you convert your signs.

NOTE: Protecting your new chests is just a matter on right clicking on a chest with a sign. Nothing complicated.


We hope you enjoy these new plugins and please don't tell us how you loved deadbolt or iconomy more because going back is not possible. These plugins were outdated and not prepared for the UUID system.

This is a new chapter in history for us - having such important plugins custom-made.

We really need some building supplies missions.

Also, there should be a mission where an "EvilTowelie cult breaks out" (Have nun-skinned people at like a campfire pentagon)
awesome idea please d rally ^_^

What about the 4 other LMGs I named? There's a reason that they're in game.
You can still find the Mk48 by doing missions. It spawns with a very low rate. IMO it's interesting that you have to work harder to find it :D

Actually we did pay for the video. It's how most of the server promotions are done these days. We talked to his agent and scheduled a filming.
We've done this after noticing that all the money we spent on regular advertising yielded no effect. It's done just to raise awareness about the Pixelmon server and to hopeflly get some new players seing as pixelmon and minecraft are sort of losing popularity.

Mjoll - I see nothing wrong in paying for publicity it's not immoral or unethical, just trying to get more players on SFT and on Pixelmon..

While in the old days people didn't use to pay for this kind of services, times have changed.

Although, I'd like to mention that this is the first time that we are paying for a youtube video to be made.

Was on last night for a bit of fun.

One thing that I would like to see added (but is more of a personal preference than anything) that I have seen on other servers is that when you spawn, you are dropped in and have to use your parachute to land. I just love that element of it, and it also gave more random spawn points than just the coast. (Again, personal preference because I think it is a bit more fun to drop in like that!)
only bad thing is that players can see you dropping in, giving them an opportunity to hunt you down.
was thinking of that too. true :S

Sounds interesting. So if rally could add this + clan packages that would be pretty awesome. (clan packages = when there are at least 5 members of the same clan they automatically receive some building supplies - suggested by spen)

You're doing a great job with fast response, Rally.

I do have one major complaint and everyone is gonna not like it: Please please PLEASE remove towing. I hate the idea that you buy a LOCKED vehicle and then someone just comes and tows it away...unless if there was a way to not be able to tow owned vehicles :)

I just fixed the towing thing, no longer can players tow locked cars ;)
That's just awesome! Good job rally!

In my opinion the lobby was a little too big, however sometimes when it automatically logs you into survival, and, for example I want to go on factions, it is annoying that I have to do /login every time. I wish it were possible to do /factions or /creative etc. without logging in. Just my suggestion, thanks.
Well basically it remembers your last location and since you have a password protected account on survival, that's why it asks for a password.

I love the towing plugin but if this cannot be fixed, yeah, it's a pretty big bug so I agree. Hopefully rally can fix.

Good job and quick turnaround for what the players wanted! Well done.

Now here is to hoping I am not playing alone tonight :D
Even if you are playing alone rally added AI and AI missions so there's still stuff to do.
And you know... im doing these servers for you guys not for me so your wish is my command xD

Rally has added AI Missions! So you can now play even when alone. 33 of those missions are SFT-related (so customized)
