12:00 AM
I need to go eat... be back in 30(?)
 
I hate to lose the Omnifarm, which, let's recall, is a 37 BY 37 BY 37 HOLE IN THE GROUND but at least now I can help build a high-quality Nether hub and railroad system around the map (please?)
 
I probably won't be able to get on in a few hours or I might even have to wait till tomorrow :/
gtg
 
@AquaTart - I'm thinking this sort of thing.
 
That can be easily done.
 
alright
I'll want another 5 blocks behind this wall for duplicating the maps and allowing close looks at them.
My only stipulation is that the spawn is centered on the map center. That's not exactly necessary, but I like the idea that your crosshairs first start on the center.
 
12:11 AM
Can someone confirm the numeric seed for "lab rat race" is -877560033
 
Sure.
 
How do I get the seed from the world I just created?
 
\seed
 
/seed or f3
 
/seed sorry
 
12:14 AM
@HelkaHomba That is correct.
@AquaTart I didn't see it in the F3 stuff.
 
Should be there.
Is the reset happening now?
 
Server back online for now, but may take off w/o notice soon
@AquaTart not quite
 
does look like a pretty good place to start
 
@Eridan I promise I will make our farms bigger and better and stronger than ever before
 
Lol. I'm tired of digging xD
 
12:20 AM
So, @AquaTart, are you planning on building around the spawn, or building up and then around?
 
I'll have to take a closer look at the hill.
 
@HelkaHomba is the old zip available yet?
 
@EasterlyIrk uploading it now
 
@HelkaHomba Thanks.
 
@AquaTart The spawn really is right in the middle of the hillside.
 
12:22 AM
I was thinking basically clean it up a bit, then reflect it over the spawn point creating the plateau. Then build up the neck of the volcano
 
I can't join tonight, but maybe Wednesday.
 
The Acacia tree right in the middle is basically where spawn is.
 
How are you already in the world? I thought the server hadn't been set up yet.
 
Local world.
 
12:25 AM
Oh okay
Just got here, I don't know what's going on.
 
Ocean's not too far away, which is good, and there's a mixed forest very close by, which is also good.
 
It's been so long since I've been on the server I'm surprised I haven't lost my rewhitelist
 
@El'endiaStarman Which acacia tree?
 
@Calvin Don't forget to ping us all when it's ready; I want to be there for the start!
 
The deteriorating one?
 
12:26 AM
Yes, the decaying one.
 
OK, can you show me the other side of the hill?
 
how long
to restart?
 
I'm thinking just chop off the two "wings", slice the hill into a sheer cliff face then reflect it
 
@AlexA. We've decided on the seed and Cal- HelkaHomba will be resetting the world within the hour. He's uploading the last backup to somewhere on the internet now.
 
I might have to build the hill up a bit though
 
12:28 AM
Whats that add death counters command?
 
Will there be significant development around the spawn or will it be a little ways out like with the previous world?
 
Can we plan a Nether hub that's a big room (possibly multiple stories) with branches off it that lead to people's rail tracks connecting to their respective Nether portals?
 
@AlexA. There will be significant development around the spawn.
 
^^ yes please
 
^
 
12:29 AM
Remaking the world in Creative so I can fly around...
 
The Nineteenth Volcano
 
Volcano?
Since when are there volcanoes in Minecraft?
 
Yep.
You'll see.
@AlexA. There aren't. This is artificial.
 
Oh okra
 
Oh oprah
 
12:31 AM
@HelkaHomba Award a bounty to the first person to get the diamonds achievement :P
 
Diamond block on the hill is spawn.
 
@El'endiaStarman OK.
 
Right side relative to the first picture.
 
Hrmph.
 
12:31 AM
It would be nice if spawn was on the right side but we'll have to make do
 
Left side.
 
Oh wait
Oh I see how this is
Hmm.
I'm gonna need to open this up in MC to figure this out.
 
Do we have an estimated time of the server opening?
 
Got chat relay working again :D
 
Well, sounds like it's already up, but I'm guessing Helka hasn't whitelisted everyone yet.
 
12:34 AM
@Eridan I'll shoot for the exact top of the hour.
@El'endiaStarman No, it's not at all actually
 
Ok, thanks
 
@HelkaHomba But...chat relay...how?
 
That's just the old server
 
ah, okay
 
12:46 AM
@HelkaHomba request: Change your avatar to make it smaller. It collides with other avatars.
 
Look at the top right. It like pushes other avatars like eridan's.
 
It's the same size as all the others for me.
 
Yeah, but I am asking for it to be smaller in comparison with the allowed size. Like a margin around the image.
It looks creepy.
 
...what is it with you and saying things look creepy?
 
12:50 AM
IDK
That's creepy.
wrong room. >.<
 
How large is this spawn thing going to be?
 
It'll be like that lady in the midwest who had a ton of children
I think she got her own TV show
 
Deleting old server files...
 
RIP
 
(heroku had an upload limit btw so putting oldworld on github)
 
12:56 AM
I'm gonna make Plateau V2.0.
 
I really like the area at -1750 1550
 
do we want to have a discord/teamspeak chat going?
 
@PhiNotPi no thx for me
Still deleting...
1.9 SERVER ONLINE!
11
 
It's happening
OK, I have to eat but then I'll be right on
Please don't have fun without me kthx
 
WOO GETTING ON
 
1:05 AM
@PhiNotPi I'm on discord
PEOPLE

TURN UP THE MICS
LETSGO
 
TURN DOWN FOR WAT
 
@AlexA. GET YOUR ASS ON DISCORD
 
@orlp MY ASS IS ABOUT TO EAT SOME DINNER
 
Ugh I died. There go my hopes of a no-death server experience
Back in a bit
 
@AlexA. YOU ASS EATS? I THOUGH YOUR MOUTH DOES THAT?
 
1:19 AM
Nope. My body works in reverse.
 
All right I'm here wooot

in The Nineteenth Byte, 19 secs ago, by Helka Homba
@GamrCorps just ask over here and I'll add you - https://chat.stackexchange.com/rooms/24544/ppcg-minecraft-server
"Ask"
@HelkaHomba if I remember correctly my user is ZekNikZ. Won't be able to play until tomorrow unfortunately.
 
Sp'a plan for 1.9 some day: anything but sorters
 
1:24 AM
@GamrCorps Added, welcome back
 
@HelkaHomba Yay thanks
 
has it reloaded yet
OK YEAAAAH
ILL BE ON IN A MINUTE YEEEESSSS!!!!!!!!!!
 
Coming back now
 
Note that the update stuff has been added to ppcgmc.herokuapp.com
No plugins/mods for now
And old files available shortly
 
Too laggy
can't play on this server
mobs are hurting me from 5 blocks away
 
1:35 AM
:/
 
2:08 AM
Why does it take 8 hits with iron to kill zombies? I had to disconnect because I was about to die fighting a single zombie
 
@Eridan There's a cooldown for weapons now, so if you spam hit it's not that effective
There's a video option to bring the cooldown timer on screen
 
Ugh
 
 
3 hours later…
5:01 AM
^ View from @PhiNotPi's mountain
 
Did MC Chat Relay choke?
^ My indoor farm thus far.
 
@El'endiaStarman Yeah. Restarted
 
5:19 AM
Can you spot him :P
 
5:44 AM
hahaha, yeah, I noticed those pretty early on
 
 
3 hours later…
8:32 AM
Okay, picture time!
"What is that orange stuff?!"
!!! Mesa might be my favorite biome now so far as beauty goes.
Sandy overhang near -463x 900z.
This was a somewhat unexpected sight. :P (I knew what it was, though.)
There's something funny about these trees.....can't put my finger on it...
The map wall has begun! This is the front view, which you see upon spawning for the first time. The map is 1-1 scale, where each pixel is a block.
Two angles of the backside, where the maps have been zoomed out three times, which means that each pixel is 8x8 blocks.
 
 
5 hours later…
1:25 PM
@HelkaHomba Boo
(Could I be readded please? :) )
 
@Sp3000 Done
 
Thanks :)
 
@El'endiaStarman flammable wood might not be the best material
 
1:44 PM
This is the perfect terrain for hobbit holes.
 
 
1 hour later…
3:09 PM
@El'endiaStarman That's gonna get clipped off when I terraform the hill
We'll have to move it up a bit
WTF you people already have diamonds and an enchantment table
Seriously how long did you play last night
 
3:22 PM
Phi said 7 hours I think.
But ಠ_ಠ.
Don't take everything before we can get there.
@HelkaHomba where is the zip?
And the second pinned message can go now.
@El'endiaStarman clay or red sand.
nvm, found the files.
 
3:59 PM
@EasterlyIrk Not really, more like 4 1/2
@El'endiaStarman I did that.
 
4:18 PM
@El'endiaStarman Do we really want to map the world before we build stuff on it? Or will a more in-detail map room be created of the spawn town after that comes into existence?
Also, more of a general question, are we going to coordinate a time where as many of us as possible can go to the End and fight the dragon?
 
@Eridan It was fairly wellcoordinated last time.
There were announcements in chat and multiple announcements in game
 
4:36 PM
I propose that we reserve (A) the entire top of the plateau spawn is on, and (B) the entire plains area from these cobble corners to the plateau as a community area for community builds. i.e. things that everyone can use and help build/improve. No personal houses or things that you don't want other people potentially changing.
Do you all agree? - strawpoll.me/6964509
 
I dunno how far you've marked out, but I think you could probably go a decent bit further (how many community buildings are planned roughly anyway?)
 
@Sp3000 Not sure, but I'd be ok with making it bigger too. Like all the way from the plateau to Phi's hook mountain. A long, decently wide strip.
 
I'd suggest making it slightly more irregular, so as not to look like a giant square of a community hub. It might be more aesthetically pleasing that way.
That's probably more work though
 
4:57 PM
@PhiNotPi I guessed you did. It was right next to your mountain, after all.
@HelkaHomba True, but that's easily remedied.
@Eridan I can easily put off making the 1-1 scale map until later, but the 8-1 scale map on the back is huge. Phi's mountain is about a third of the way from the edge that spawn is right next to. THAT one I can extend without worrying too much.
@EasterlyIrk Yes, as I learned when I got a few samples.
@AquaTart Fine by me. I just wanted to get something up to show what I had in mind.
 
@HelkaHomba the world save zip is massive (541 MB), how can I download it faster?
 
How can you download anything faster?
 
@zyabin101 Get faster internet. I don't control the size of files
 
5:15 PM
^
 
Weird. It's 571 MB on my machine
Zipped
 
@PhiNotPi okay if I use your mountain to build off of? (thinking a floating house ~ 100 blocks away)
Like make a temp bridge?
@Rainbolt 598.8 MB for me...
 
mebibyte vs megabyte
 
5:33 PM
Currently the "fastest" way is to download each file one by one, which is what I'm doing. It's rather the "slowest" one...
 
@zyabin101 How is that faster than downloading the master zip? - github.com/HelkaHomba/ppcgmc1.8/archive/master.zip
(or git cloning)
 
Sam
@HelkaHomba imgur.com/tre7xVC is this my pc or the server? I have never experienced this before
 
o.O
Probably your computer. Try relogging and/or restarting Minecraft?
 
Sam
i re joined the server and it seems ok
 
I'm designating the entire top of the spawn plateau and this section of land (^ marked in temporary cobble) as community land. Everyone is encouraged to help develop it with [auto]farms and roads and such, but personal homes or bases should be outside this area. Everyone can use the stuff in community areas and rebuild/modify them as necessary. If anyone has concerns about this, I'm open to discussion.

5:47 PM
@El'endiaStarman I did some more strip mining in your mine nd got a little bit of redstone and iron
 
sweet
Redstone is more plentiful than iron at that depth, which is weird. :P
 
When I get back we need to make a quickie mob grinder
 
Also, a line of small houses within this area is not out of the question, I'm just trying to avoid a cluttered spawn like last time.
 
@HelkaHomba Is my inside base fine?
 
@El'endiaStarman Your base is scheduled for demolition. :p
 
5:49 PM
NUUUUUUUUUU...
It's not much of one anyway; I don't mind relocating.
 
It's in one of the wings I need to clip off.
 
Except for the mine. Which I can start again elsewhere....
 
@El'endiaStarman Oh, is that permanent? I thought it might conflict with the spawn base plans
 
Phi's base is also gonna get blown up.
 
I'm not gonna demand that it stay. It was/will be useful for having a safe place to stay.
 
5:51 PM
Also @El'endiaStarman seriously how long did you play last night
 
.........uhhhhhhhhhhh...........
 
Diamonds, enchanted gear, portals, yeesh
 
I have just one pair of clean iron leggings that I dry over a radiator
How do you craft a tripwire hook again?
 
iron stick woodplank
 
5:54 PM
Iron
Stick
Plank
Has to be vertical.
 
Well, maybe it does work horizontally, and the MC gamepedia just doesn't show it.
 
@El'endiaStarman (cc @quartata) What if we make sure that the spawn base has decent-sized private rooms for everyone? Then no one will feel the need to build another small house right near spawn (and of course they can make as big a house as they want away from spawn)
 
Well, quartata/@AquaTart was planning on some extreme terraforming...
But yeah, we could do that.
I'd just have to move all my loot.
 
Ok for the top of the plate, we should have: Pixel art blocks of:
-furnace
-chest
-crafting table
the furnace has a huge autosmelter, the crafting table is a huge area with enchanting tables, potion stands, crafting tables and anvils and the chest is an item sorter
