Blacraft General / Re: Server Texture Pack
« on: 2013 03 24, 12:34:17 »
It would be optional but on by default.

However you seemed to ignore everything about the custom map icons which was sort of the main point of an official texture pack atm.

Blacraft General / Server Texture Pack
« on: 2013 03 24, 10:47:37 »
The stupid icons on maps made me annoyed yesterday, all copies of the maps in item stands blocking large areas and the ridiculously big size of player arrows, but I realized a solution. You could just edit the icons or remove them entirely in a texture pack.

I made a texture pack for myself based on Faithful 32x32 plus with round Sun and Moon and some edited map icons. Making the whole texture pack with everything from items to blocks official Blacraft textures would probably annoy some people I could imagine, but do you like the idea of having the custom map icons as server-wide textures? Many people might not look into texture packs, so I think they would benefit from the edited icons rather than having maps filled with completely pointless, green arrows and not knowing how to get rid of them.

Here they are so you can compare them. Default is left, center is my edited one which shows itemframes with copies of the map as small yellow dots, right is my edited one which doesn't show item frames. Because the forum background is black, you may want to open the images in another tab or download them so you can see the black outline of the icons.



Here is an example of how a map with the center textures looks (the yellow dot is smaller than one pixel on the map, so you can see what color the pixel behind it is):


If you vote, please put one vote in option 1/2/3 and one vote in 4/5/6.

if we could take apart tools (we can't, but just pretend)
would we poll all enchanted tools in the collective storage, then take them apart for the diamonds when a poll called for it?

because the stacks of items in one of my collective chests are supposed to have a use and are significantly harder to obtain than just the normal stack of defaulty named materials, so if they were supposed to be used in polls, well it'd be kind of like the first scenario above.
What are those stacks?

Enchanted tools aren't good for collective storages for obvious reasons no, but the item library structure works fine for storing them, managing them and making them publicly available.

there's like a miniscule amount of gold in the organics/mob drop chest because i killed a few pigmen
also there is lapis and gold in the special items chest because they are renamed and not intended for normal use
also there is coal in the mob drop chest because i killed a wither skelaton

but i've fixed all that now

the special chest category has a bunch of lapis, gold, emeralds, and other items renamed to a body part. that was a large source of the error you found. however, they're supposed to be for a hospital that hasn't been completed yet, so i haven't counted them (and won't unless you insist).
If they're private chests, they're collective storage and have to be counted.

Quote from: Mudkipz on 2013 03 22, 23:51:57
also on another topic

the collective storage spreadsheet is used to graph what items are available and who gives how much in a poll.
It is also used to graph how many items we have so that we have statistics of our economy.
Quote from: Mudkipz on 2013 03 22, 23:51:57
collective storages are graphed weekly. however, since multiple months ago, there hasn't been a single poll.
so doesn't it seem that recording all item amounts weekly is rather inefficient when we can simply record and post the amount of one item type when a poll comes? i'm nearly 100% sure that i can post how much of a material i have within 3 days, probably yqt1001 and smjjames can too (they're on nearly daily).
It's not really much less efficient to graph it once a week if you just update the page whenever you store or take out items. That was my recommended method. If it's too much you could use the public storage as a buffer for smaller amounts of resources and store the excesses every once in a while. Graphing it once pr. month would also make the statistics sort of messy - months aren't equal in length, and don't start with the same days, so if we had to graph it every 1st day in a month etc., that could be on a weekday where I'm often too busy to do it.

Some 1.5 block changes that Bla might want to add tomorrow:
9 redstone = 1 redstone block
4 single nether brick (smelted from netherrack) = 1 nether brick block (irreversible)
4 single nether quartz = 1 nether quartz block (irreversible)
I've added them all now.

I updated
http://blacraft.wikia.com/wiki/Rules/Law_of_the_Union_of_Blacraft_Socialist_Regions
to make it more clear that by default, all private chests = collective storage chests => you count them in the Google doc. If you want exceptions to that rule you must get my permission.

Mudkipz, I have inspected your collective storage, and did not expect this very big difference from the values (the values I found are in the 20130316 column). This won't be punished because of the temporary server mess (although I do think it's sort of people's own fault when they just refuse to update whenever they store/withdraw something), plus the fact that you're moving storage and I therefore don't know if I actually counted all of it.

But I need to say, you need to clean up the storage. I found things like coal and gold distributed over three different chests, same with lapis I think. I'd like to see you finishing the moving of stuff soon if that's why the values are probably so far off. Or did you simply not update the collective storage sheet?



If the values are off, please tell me and make them correct before tomorrow without storing or withdrawing any items from the collective if possible. kthxbai.

For your suggestion that's slightly closer to vanilla Minecraft, how is there a reward at all for dying?
Quote from: Bla on 2013 03 18, 06:11:31
Maybe if the deathchests are placed in a sufficiently annoying location, it will outweigh the reward
The reward of having deathchests. Not the "reward" of dying.

Quote from: yqt1001 on 2013 03 18, 12:21:53
It is possible for an admin to set up deathchests in a certain location and not allow someone else to move them. The idea behind it is that bukkit 1.5 is incredibly buggy (I already spawned underground yesterday) and this will simply solve the problem of having to respawn items everyday. I know you don't like the idea, but you also won't be the person who will have to respawn the items.
Let's try deathchest and decide if it should be removed later when we know how buggy it is then.

The deathchest would definetly be useful for those that have problems caving without dying much (and is useful when you have an inventory full of stuff and die in lava).

Also useful for fighting the enderdragon. Except that any potions the person had on won't be available to others, but that can be worked out.

« on: 2013 03 17, 18:59:44 »
It should be set to 8km. I'm almost certain it's also 8km in the Nether, so yes, people could make portals which would go 64km away. If they used them, they would be teleported to the border very fast, but the chunks would probably generate. I think that's how it would work.
I would say people shouldn't make portals that far away in the Nether though.

Even if he did this, I will not accept people just going there and pouring lava and water all over the place. If they want to do that they must claim the region and state who they are so we know what their intentions and plans are with that, because that case simply looks like griefing imo.

If you enter the portals from the overworld and write down their coordinates it shouldn't be too hard. Alternatively you could also write down their x/z coords in the overworld and divide them by 8 to get approximate coords in the nether.

That shouldn't be necessary either, but it shouldn't be hard to speed up the process. Collectivizing an item on the spreadsheet is mostly just copypaste.

so is it the farther the view distance, the greater the diameter of land you are 'seeing', or does that depend on the server's view distance set or??

far view would give you a much larger 'circle' that you are searching than tiny.
It is set by the server. No matter your view distance you load the amount of chunks the server decides. ClanForge doesn't allow changing that setting.

I checked and Spawntown still has 3 large chests of cobble plus a bit more. Still very disappointing, though.

We should probably increase the role of collective storages in the future.

Also, if you want to dig simply for the cobble, strip mining sounds like a much better idea to me. Gives you lots of cobble plus all the goodies.
