4:55 AM
restarting
Might need to get a beefier server for this pack, loads are constantly quite high
Ahshit. Now I'm stuck too
I don't understand why ages / dimensions are crashing like that
Now I can't log in at all after restoring (just my) save from a backup
:(
Now I'm in, but extreme lag, floating through unloaded chunks
 
 
4 hours later…
9:42 AM
Time to delete some world folders?
Don't delete the underdark! :(
 
@KevinvanderVelden Do you have a base over there maybe?
 
@Arperum I have a mining thing there
 
@KevinvanderVelden You should add a base. That sounds like fun. Forget to light up one single spot and doom comes over you.
 
@Arperum Even better, make the entire base have some kind of powered lightning and have it only turn on with a player detector
 
@KevinvanderVelden So it's always dark except if you are nearby?
 
9:51 AM
Yes
 
SO only the rooms you are currently using are lighted up, or the whole base is lighted up whenyou are nearby?
 
@Arperum hmm, whole base when I'm nearby I'd say
 
@KevinvanderVelden Yea, having creepers spawning in a room where you left two minutes ago doesn't sound like fun.
Can a player detector detect specific players? Or is it any player?
 
Yeah, that =p. Especially given the fact that they have a boost from being there
@Arperum uuh, I think there is a computercraft detector that can show the name, and can't the pneumaticraft one filter on a player name?
 
@KevinvanderVelden No clue. If you can only light it up for you that'd be an evil touch though.
 
9:56 AM
I know :D
 
@KevinvanderVelden It does involve a risk of blown up stuff by creepers though. if someone goes rummaging through it in the dark.
 
@Arperum that is when you pull out the tesla coils
 
Also: ward some blocks in the walls/floor, so it sort of looks like it is a really old base where the warding is starting to fail.
 
Oooh, and have some of that fancy stained glass and then break some of the panes
And if going the computercraft route, make the lights flicker occasionally
 
@KevinvanderVelden If some player is nearby, but full on when you are near off course.
 
10:00 AM
@Arperum naah, having them blink off for a tick or two isn't an issue
Hmm, hook the tesla coils up to player detectors, any room I'm not in is getting zapped
I'll probably also set it to not kill @Vandammetje, probably :p
 
@KevinvanderVelden So someone found some old creepy looking base in the underdark, goes in, kills loads of mobs, suddenly you arive and they get zapped. Sounds quite evil.
 
@Arperum naah, they get zapped regardless of if I'm in the base
 
@KevinvanderVelden Add a random timer on the zappings, so they can possibly get two rooms in before getting zapped.
 
You are evil, I like it
 
@KevinvanderVelden Thank you.
 
 
2 hours later…
11:49 AM
@KevinvanderVelden Probably...
 
@Vandammetje probably
 
@Vandammetje You might also be the person who has to test the system, but you just don't know yet.
 
Also don't be afraid of the blue line in the walls of the castle, they're totally not part of a teleport system that takes anyone standing on any floor to the underdark
 
@KevinvanderVelden Oh! you could add teleportation to some remote never turning back location too instead of zapping.
 
12:09 PM
Good thing of being unable to play minecraft due to being stuck in an age; no chance on becoming a testsubject for evil experiments created by multiple evil masterminds.
 
@Vandammetje we can probably fix that tonight when you come by to pick up that network cabling thing
 
Right, and then you will probably "show" me your evil experiments.
 
I won't have time to build said evil experiments yet
 
said experiments
implying you don't already have a secret shed filled with doomsday devices yet
 
... you've seen the basement
 
12:15 PM
I have seen a basement
 
The basement runs down to bedrock, there are no basements beneath it
 
@KevinvanderVelden If it's connected to the basement through a portal, it counts as a basement.
 
@Arperum even counting that there are no other basements
... yet
 
@KevinvanderVelden - that you want to talk about
 
@Vandammetje I can neither confirm nor deny anything
 
12:26 PM
Would there be a mod that allowed a specific person to be excluded from the "people who are online" list? That + morph can result in a super sneaky "ghost" player.
That sounds like fun.
 
I don't think so, not installed for sure
Or well, there are probably mods for it, some admin command thing
 
@KevinvanderVelden Not installed I know, don't know about it existence either.
 
Heck you don't even need morph it'll probably also have an invis option (as in, don't tell other clients where you are)
 
@KevinvanderVelden Yea, but morph allow you to fly/move around with less visibility. Having a bat flapping behind you in a cave is not all that abnormal, having a player who is not supposed to be there standing behind you is quite abnormal.
 
@Arperum true, but if the other clients aren't told you are there you aren't rendered
 
12:30 PM
@KevinvanderVelden But that removes the sneaking aspect. That is just literal invisible nonsense.
 
this is the closest I could find in a minute.
 
I think that only hides the floating name, which you don't see with morph
 
@KevinvanderVelden Yea, and the vanish bukkit plugin hides too much. And is for use with bukkit.
The other option would be to always show this player as online in the list. That would work exactly the same for hiding purposes. ANd have him not have login/logout messages (if possible).
 
 
1 hour later…
1:42 PM
I have a nice blast proof floating base, which I plan to expand. I have lots of secret compartments and nooks around the surrounding chunks, but what I don't have is a proper evil lair. I think I need to make one of those.
 
 
3 hours later…
4:12 PM
@TimPost blast proof you say? Prepares nukes
 
4:52 PM
@KevinvanderVelden Nukes you say? Prepares 9 year old - get ready to get pink, 'sall I'm sayin'
 
@TimPost prepares eucalyptus tree farm, prepares OP wand of equal trade :)
 
I have an OP wand of equal trade. Prepares to cheat in 20 stacks of bedrock
Hmm, wonder if equal trade works on bedrock. I doubt it, even if a player placed it
 
To place, probably, don't see why not
To remove, no it doesn't
 
Or I could just borrow your warding focus
 
It's in my focus pouch =p
Also, I have SSH access to the server, I can also op myself :)
 
4:54 PM
This is how you fight @KevinvanderVelden in all things Thaumcraft - you first ask to borrow what you need to defeat @KevinvanderVelden from @KevinvanderVelden, and then go on to let him have it.
 
prepares taint slime cannon
 
Don't you think that's a tad excessive?
 
Taint slimes are never excessive
Or uuh wait, yeah kinda
They are purple though!
 
 
4 hours later…
8:59 PM
Public service announcement #1: Call of the zephyr rituals from bloodmagic (pick up items and dump in chest) take a lot of time if the chest above them is full
Public service announcement #2: My mobfarm creates a lot of items
So uuh, yeah, I just shaved of 6 miliseconds of time from the overworld by emptying a chest
