this might solve our land grab issues

Land Claim Flags

- Land Claim Flags are a possible new addition to be added specifically for SMP. If an admin/op gives a player one of these items (presumably no natural way to create them due to abuse), and a player places it down, it will claim a unknown amount of land around the flag. Only players who planted the flag, or are on an 'allow list' can modify or blocks within the affected area

I think that if there is a new server that goes up we should do similar to what we did in the first server that was put up, make a big town hall kind of thing where everyone can work out of to get started, general meeting place etc etc. knowing my luck i'd be doing all the hard stuff again :P
I agree.

Thought I would just do a post up on my thoughts for the reroll.

I think in or last world we were all playing single player in a multiplayer world. What I mean by this is that we were all doing our own thing in some far away corner of the map, it was always a big investment of time just to walk to someone's area to see what they were building.

Defiantly not saying that there is anything wrong with that, just being able to explore each other creations is enough of a reason to build together.

As I posted before, for our next world I'd like to build on the idea of a community. My vision of our new world is to start by building a hub, what form this takes would be up for the group to decide. It would include things like a group mine, and a trading house.

The idea of a trading house would help to bring out rolls for the players. People that mine a lot would trade stone and ore, farmers would produce food, necris with his mob spawners would trade mob drops. Of could there would be no requirement for people to use the trade house if they have time to collect all resources they need them self, but for those that have limited time or patience i tcould work great. Some one who only jumps on once a week to work on their mine might not have to time to finding food to recharge their ever depleting hunger bar. But the main reason to do this is that it would be fun.

Let me know what you think guys. I'll post up some more ideas later. :)

Just start a would be village. Create some streets and assign different lots to people. Build in a community and what not. Like wolf said, you could have a general store for food and clothing supplies, a bank for gems and resources ect.

I'll be the banker. You can all leave your gems with me and in return I promise to give 10% more gems back at some vaguely determined point in the future. Unless I do a runner.

In all seriousness though, sounds like a nice idea wolf. An OSG town/city
yo listen up here's a story
about a little guy that lives in a blue world
and all day and all night and everything he sees
is just blue like him inside and outside
blue his house with a blue little window
and a blue corvette
and everything is blue for him and hisself
and everybody around
cos he ain't got nobody to listen to

i'm blue da ba dee da ba die...

We should definitely start a new map with that many changes. I think the way we worked the original map was for the most part fairly good. My house became the central refuge, and I don't mind being the host of the party, and it branched out from there. This last map we all bolted in all 4 directions immediately to give our grand ideas room to breathe.

To map out a proper village might be difficult, but perhaps if we just agree to go with the original idea at the very least and keep everything linked for easy travel then that might be the best starting point? When I do the update, I'll dig the obligatory hole in the wall near the spawn and then we keep it close?

OR

Should we lay out some general design rules now and try to keep it pretty uniform to start with?

You guys allocated more RAM to the game?
I was poking around online and noticed that you can do it with a command line shortcut.

Quote:
 
javaw -Xmx2048m -Xms1024m -jar "C:\Games\Minecraft.exe"


where you make a shortcut of the mine craft.exe file and paste the above in the target line and it will allocate more memory being xmx value and xms has to be half of it. (obviously changing the location of your exe, since that one is mine)

I tried it and it does work when i push F3 it shows I'm using 53% of 4096 (I set mine to xmx8192 and xmx4096).

Hopefully this reduces the crashing I got a couple of times last night.

Edit: you might need 64bit version of Java to work, not sure, Necris says he couldn't get it to work but probably is doing it wrong. :D http://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp

Been playing one day and already an expert.

Anyway I tried to post this yesterday put the forum was down:

I like blitzs idea of making a path first thing, even if it's just a simple cross road.

I've seen some servers where they build together, a bit of conformity looks pretty good. What do you guys think about making our starting town mainly out of wood? If we make cobblestone paths it would provide a nice contrast. We can leave  the giant stone castles for latter.

Yeah, I like the idea of wood and cobblestones, but Necris's shit does have a habit of bursting into flames.

no I like this idea, i could be carfule. HOWEVER, if it's all out of wood i would like to request that hiss saves the server once we are finished with the main center of town, wait until it's night then watch from a distance while we burn the town down, during night you have to admit it would look AWESOME!!! it would be recorded then stuck on utube :P

EDIT:I would also like to state my shit keeps burning cause I use lava for some stuff and people like mining where they shouldn't, I cannot control lava flow :P
