Linux Minecraft; Official Bit-tech server

It's quite alright, I just jumped off to make what you asked for coincidentally, a cartograph!

Perfect

I see where I shall build, must go claim it now

 

Also i don't know if this has been posted yet or not, its a cartograph from PennyArcades MC server;

Its big, its bad, its beauuuuutiful. My favourite is definitely free willy

 

It may well be greedy but that's the most island like thing I can see (EDIT: With suitable waterways), checking for other signs that someone has claimed it...

 

2/ OK I'll get on with nuking some of the hill behind the tunnel but leaving it tall enough still to see Downtown. Then building guild-hall and putting a platform on top for newbies to drop on. Then they have to go down, through guildhall and out into Downtown area. sound good?

3/ It's OK, ill start again

Stick it's: Kebab_or_shag

 

holy crap check out that underwater city in the pennyarcade server...

 

That's rapture! All of it, recreated!

 

Surely not ingame...

EDIT: What happened to the water sphere next to the lava sphere in downtown? It seems to have disappeared on the carto :O

 

it wasn't impossible to build rapture underwater; it was impossible to build it anywhere else ^^

 

Yup all of that is in-game built, they are a mad lot...i'm not sure about the carto but it just didn't render it, i jumped online though and it is still intact!

QFT.

 

that seriously broke my laptop

but yay im on the carto finally! flying dirt circle v3.2 is win

above the far end of the bumper boat pond in case you missed it. im going for a larger, prettier version of my SP flying island with waterfalls running off into the lake below. i figured it would look nice there and spice up the bumper boat pond. plus with the boats there itll be easy to float up the waterfall to the island.

i like the guild hall idea for spawn. lots of signs and a grand entrance pointing the way into the mega tunnel and downtown would be great for orienting visitors.

 

Hi there guys, I read your article about A Letter from Minecraft and I must say, WELL DONE! those are some awsome creations!!
Im still busy with my rugby stadion, I had some trouble with my psu, so im back in business, hehe.
Ive tried to create a server for a LAN, but the server need some work, there is still a lot of bugs, so im sticking to the single player until its fixed, hehe
Happy minecrafting!!

 

This is a question for those of you running the server, how do you guys go about deciding who gets to build where? Is there any official way for claiming land as your own? What would you do if someone starts building on something you claimed?

 

You stick a sign in the ground identifying your plot and you make the boundaries somewhat clear. For big projects, you'll probably find more than one sign showing the plot to be yours. People rarely build on someone else's plot so long as it has been clearly identified. Otherwise, stickeh will eat the offender for breakfast.

 

Lava destroys minecarts and i'm told if you put a cactus at the end of the line it will allow you to reclaim the minecart.

I'm yet to actually try with the cactus but could be a temp solution...

 

I have tried the cactus method 5 times now on a locally hosted server. 2 times it worked fine and I recovered the cart. 1 time the cart just vanished. 2 times it caused the server to crash with both an "illegal state exception" and "null pointer exception" according to the console. Seems like a bad idea.

 

It's being horribly laggy o.o

 

holy massive lag!

 

I keep timing out now

 

likewise. i havnt been able to log back in since i d/c'd.

and i was just getting to the fun part: waterfalls!
