Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

We don't actually build or mine anymore, we just play with cats all day. Minecraft!

    Hey Squigs,

    I guess since your establishment is underground I could not tell the land was claimed.

    I never intended to use the underground area or mine there. I simply wanted a small little village (kinda like a resort part in the forest). I apologize for intruding on your area.

    If you will allow me to keep that little house there and make a garden around it, I will make sure to re-forest the area and move out further. That house is hella cute. I'd hate to take it down. :P

    Drop me a PM if you would and let me know how far out you're spread.

    It's my fault for not putting up any proper markers, and the dynamap would not help much because my project is invisible from the surface. Until recently I was stuck with a lack of a clear plan, and I can be a bit shy.

    I want to be clear that there is no need for you to remove your house. A village also will not interfere with anything I have planned. I was simply concerned that, in the future, we might find ourselves building into each other.

    Also, I don't intend this to be snarky, but if you genuinely can't withstand the burden of needing to check the announcement post or wiki every few days for major announcements, this and other internet pursuits may not be right for your lifestyle. The unfortunate fact is that organic systems require upkeep.

    And if I said that is kind of snarky? and that you don't really have a right to comment on peoples time investment in relation to their hobbies? No one is saying they can't, won't, or it's too much of a burden.

    And people are taking quite the leap in my post from questioning the inherent value of a system allowing for multiple separate discussions and thinking I wish we were an autonomous community, which I don't.

    Anyway, if there's going to be a more predominate featuring of the wiki, I'm gonna need access to that :P Oooh.. found the frostheim part. Clicking hell invasions just sends you to a dead page though?

    And also a note to anyone thinking to venture to icelands not frigid tip; right now it's got me, ruddeh, muddeh, twotimintim, dridden, carl marcotte, and annihilatus each claiming various areas of it and so it's quite a crowded/developing rim around that lake. Just be considerate of the fact that we spaced ourselves out from each other in such a way to have FAR sight distance from each other so that our builds have their own space, and most of the land is claimed with plans for a rail.

    Edit because i didnt wanna triple post: Uhm.. everytime i try to use the station, i swing around this side hook of rail into a sand wall. Ah-hah.. warped.

    Is it possible to make the 'OP' sticky in some way to every new 'page' of the thread?

    So - if you were to take a couple of 'days off', or go away for a week, and come back and check the most recent page - there would be automatically at the top of the page, a post (the OP if possible) with big shiny letters stating "Please check the WIKI for server updates / event schedules / temporary rules / BIG NEWS!"

    Kind of thing.

    I regularly check the OP - but usually only for the link to the Dynamap.

    "The difference between virtuality and life is very simple. In a construct you know everything is being run by an all-powerful machine. Reality doesn't offer this assurance, so it's very easy to develop the mistaken impression that you're in control."

    There is not, as that is all dictated by the forum setup as a whole and we don't have any control over that.

    This didn't seem to be an issue in the past but I am of the staying only on here at SE++ and keeping the wiki up to date.

    Also thanks for everything you guys do for us. Keeping things running and keeping everyone in line. I feel like without you admins we would have a bit of a "Lord of the Flies" situation on our hands.

    Goodbye today, thought I would be doing things but nope just gonna look at a bunch of wood all day.

    The new chat functionality are pretty comprehensive. Clickable links, copy paste all text, autocomplete names and some weird thing where /commands don't need you to press t first.

    So Minecraft xbox has a date. May 9th, $20 or 1600 microsoft points. Kinect support will be patched in.

    For those that haven't read, they refined the UI and controls a bit, and added a list for crafting that shows what you can make.

    Example being if you have logs it will show you can make planks, planks you can make doors, and so on.

    They apparently are also going to have a tutorial map with buildings and minecart tracks, showing some things that can be done in game.

    do you think wood structures will no become mismatched ater the update? or will it only effect new planks?

    Existing planks remain a discrete block. There's no way to discern what was made from what wood before.

    Also note that the wood derivatives are not yet effected, so you can't get birch or pine stairs/slabs/fence. Hopefully we get those soon. Granted things can already look pretty fantastic.

    SERVER RESTART!

    Just a quick one, we're having issues with server speed at the moment. Could be anything between too many mobs, too many minecarts, items or other kinds of "entities". If it doesn't go away, we're going to look further into it.

    PS: Seriously guys, if you're not afk and we're yelling at you to log off, we're not just doing it because we think it's hilarious.

    Legionnaires barracks are all restocked after tonights event, was fun! New folks have new bunks, yadda yadda. Next time there is an event you are good to participate from your bed supplies.

    Since the cultists are being more active in the battle, perhaps we'll actually witness some of these mystical inquisition members I keep hearing about.

    Clothes or just cloth hangers? If its the latter have you tried letting water blocks flow then MCediting the water to the cloth material and then trimming the bottoms?

    Circle stone texture is currently awful, working on it, the hieroglyph block ain't great and I'll probably change the lamps when Nuka updates Frostheim with better ones and I steal them.

    issue with Dynamap?
    does not seem to be updating?

  • apricotmuffinsapricotmuffins Angry Bee Registered User regular
    Carrington broke the dynmap. It refuses to update any of the map. You can still see people moving and talk but any block updates are not showing. I have tried to fix it with my limited knowledge but I guess he did something awful to it last night and thought he fixed it, but it isn't so it's still broke and will still be until he or ulti can fix it.
