[Minecraft] Official TTLG server

Also, I'd suggest locking down the server in case of griefers while we wait for the hmod to update.

What do you mean by that?
What I meant when I wrote 'mod-free' is that we're still online but going without protection until hMod/bukkit updates. A backup was made this morning and is secure. Should anything happen, of course I'll take appropriate measures.

Notes:
* There are now 4 colors of sheep :)
* Blue thing is as rare (or rarer) as diamond - and there obviously is nothing nearby. Need to go to unexplored space. :(
* Spiders indeed climb walls (and have managed to creep on me a few times already). They often fail to climb and fall back down damaging themselves. They can not climb sandstone.
* PICTARS WORK !!!!111
* Alternate source for coal - not that we did not have enough of it already :/
* Squids are always neutral and drop 1-3 ink.
* Squids can be farmed :ebil:
* Dye stuff is just - irresistible.
* ABSOLUTELY NO LAG EVER (had a little hickup on my first join) - i have never seen the server that lag free ... just amazing ... hell - I CAN EVEN FIGHT ZOMBIES! damn hMod x_x - needed, but devastating.
* three types of tree-trunks ... but it seems you can not grow them yourself - need to find unexplored areas. :( While the new trees look a bit bad - the white trunks are pretty building material (please do not burn them)
* some crafts do not need any specific ordering nor placement now (all dye stuff - as long as the right stuff is on the grid - it works).
* semi-useful arrow-trap block (sure, can use for other stuff also).
* note block - i fail to see any use for.

Yes. Before Biomes were added.

If you mean the side-grass issue, then I'd agree with you, and the fact that biome colouring is not perfect, otherwise the game looks like it did before, new tiles are of the same quality as old ones.

Tirgal found it before you did, when that same exact chunk was missing.

/.../ I just trust you to refrain from hacking those into your server inventory, since I know you can : )

Nope. Since the server side inventory - i can not. But knowing the code side inside-out ... that does give me some advantages. + some i try not to take advantage of. Like destroying any block with one hit (got curious once). Or seeing every ore etc (probably extremely trivial to do). Or see trough walls with one button press (have not updated that for ages - probably easy to update - unless the obfuscator choosed to use class names like "do" or "if" again x_x ... sigh).

I try to refrain doing any of that.

Lol. bob's luck at hiding stuff is remarkably bad it seems.

/me feels a sudden urge to make a tiny mod that shows where all the boxes are in the world x_x.

Btw, how many of you have hidden caches in boomtown? I have 2 (one filled with more or less junk - the other has some of the blocks that are impossible to get in SMP without "/item").

zombe on 14/1/2011 at 14:52

HOLY SHIT! - you can make stuff (like trees) grow with bonemeal!

Also, while notch said the last quickie-patch was supposed to fix the missing-chunks => it does not seem to have any effect :(
