Not to toot my own horn, but ours is a nice little server if I do say so myself. Check the first post for IP and rules and I'll add you.

Primarily "Bug fixes!"
--Monster Spawners now support extra information for the mobs it spawns. This allows unmodified games to have spawners for special variants of mobs. The player still requires external or modified means to set these parameters, though. Some examples of what Monster Spawners can spawn are Charged Creepers, Endermen holding specific blocks, Green Robe Villagers, and Villagers with custom trade offers.
--Mobs now spawn on Half Slabs.
--Performance improvement.[2]

Bug Fixes:
--The Spruce, Birch and Jungle Wooden Stairs can now be crafted.
--Removed the Sand duplication glitch.
--In creative mode, destroying a TNT block no longer drops a TNT block.

Well, looks like we need to stock up on sand now.

Veed I only use it as cool flore for my house I'm away for about a week but can I build a glass wall around the hole?

That doesn't really solve the problem, that's a large patch of potential spawning area gone.

This is a problem.

EDIT: Sounds like they may just spawn on top of upside-down slabs, sort of similar to how rails and redstone can now be placed on them. Still trying to find clarification though.
 
not too worried about removal of sand dupe, mainly because this is like the third time it's happened. we should stock up, however, get at least 30 double chest fulls
 
Veed can I cover the hole with glass blocks? I really want to keep the hole because it is a nice litle cut through the world. And for the sand we will fine a new way there is no worry.

Speaking of that: The sand generator is broken again (wasn't me).

I just set up a place in Oho with 32 double chests I wanna fill with sand from the generator as long as that's still possible.
 
Thank goodness, the Minecraft wiki has updated to note that mobs spawning on slabs is actually just for upside-down slabs, normal bottom slabs still prevent spawning.

Mobs can't spawn on glass. I get that you want a cool floor but that slime room is a public utility and it was set up before you moved in there. It isn't something that can be relocated either because slimes only spawn in specific areas.

:\
 
Sand generator should be working again. I think that it is lag that is messing it up. If you think that you can fix it when it breaks then just fiddle with the clock and nothing els. Veed I will sadly cover the hole :(
 
1.3 is just around the corner, so don't forget to keep generating sand before you can't do it anymore. For convenience, feel free to use my sand generator at -181 -159

please do I hate generating sand
 
Once I fix my router I'll be setting my own server up, if anyone feels like joining a faction server. Just a general PVP server, depending on the traffic I'll have perks up or not. Whitelist is doubtful unless griefers get out of hand. I dunno.

I sat around for a bit with it. The output of that thing is obscene. There's 25 full double chests on your site now.
 
Updated my sand generator with a nice sand room. I am working on filling a ton of chests. I measured how much sand the generator puts out per minute and its about 349 blocks. or 5 stacks and a half stack. Veed the hole is now gone :(
 
ive been thinking recently about the server and inactivity and general sort of disinterest in it
i mean weve been playing a good bit of oo:sos and shit which is a lot of fun
but it seems like we hit this total civilization point in the world and then people start to get bored
i think that the server is most active when people are just getting their shit together
im going to suggest something and im thinking a lot of people will be like shut up dude youre retarded but im gonna say it anyway

when 1.3 drops does anyone else think we should restart the map?
 
I've poured a lot of time and effort into Smogcraft 3.0. I've spent many frustrating nights underwater, drowning, placing glass, and having to dig out every single block in all of my domes. Many hours have been spent at the spider grinder throwing potions into a small slit.

That being said, I am fine with starting a new map. I'm not really pushing for it or anything, but I'd be okay if we were to start fresh. I really just think that because we haven't had any updates recently that we've stopped playing, rather than "I have to much stuff I don't know what to do". There's just not anything new to toy around with at the moment.
 
I would love to start a new map I missed the beginning of v3 and haven't really gotten into it because the server is dead whenever I get on.
 
Please, no new map. Please. Spawn, Oho, Lotus Village, Pale Pass, Newer
Haven, my Jungle Island along with the underground stuff I'm
working on there - all that will be lost. I really don't want that to happen.

I'm all for expanding the border /deleting some old stuff when 1.3 rolls around.
If you guys want, I'll take care of all the ugly transitions between old and new
terrain generation, as long as we don't start a new map. :/

There's still a lot of unexplored land on out map, even without 1.3 terrain
generation.


In other news, I have improved the Skelly grinder at spawn as much as
possible. If you just need arrows, go there! :P

Next topic: Why was the garden at spawn removed? Those two stone brick
towers for melons just look terribly ugly. My suggestion: We remove the
towers and the wheat farm and build a new, bigger wheat farm there, with
much higher yield.
