Gerdih I think that Hielor has since long stated that he will not add any add-on that requires a client mod. And if it is indeed implemented people like me will only get 1 ~ 3 fps (yeah I know that my laptop is a piece of junk). And AFAIK Hielor said it in the OP. On a side note though with zeppelinmod we can have a very easy to make elevator.

Just found this on youtube, could be quite useful in the server:

To fix this would take an overhaul of the AI Pathfinding, and would slow down said Pathfinding.

Why would it require an overhaul of the AI pathfinding? They'd just need to treat upside-down stairs as partial blocks, or something.

At the moment the pathfinding algorithm sees 2 types of block. Solid and not solid.most blocks are solid, water, lava and air are not. Its why mobs will happily walk off edges if there's a sign there, because the pathfinding treats the block as solid, even though the collision mesh isn't the full block.

If one extra test in the algorithm slows the mob's pathfinding down, might be time for a new computer...:thumbup:

Hielor, can you consider this plugin please, server-side of course :D

I know that perhaps for now, Leeuwenhoek and Vroengard are the only structures which will benefit with the existence of elevators, but hey, perhaps this can create an impetus to build the city with high-rises :cheers:

I've been thinking about building a city, something akin to the theater district but with taller structures, and this would be pretty cool in that regard. :)

A while ago, I propose that we name the landmasses and geographical features of the server's world, here's what I came up with

a complete map of the known chunks of the server, for naming the huge oceans and continents, the only one named so far by the residents is Alegassia, the continent where Vroengard is.

I came up with names for the biomes and seas surrounding the city, and I name them from people who are related to space-travel and regarding the local features as well

RED = political structure
BLACK = geographical feature

Orbiter-Forum Memorial City a.k.a Orbiteria a.k.a Communia or just The Commune is by far the only organized political structure managed by tl8 (what would his title be? Mayor, Doge? :lol: please do tell us tl8)

the Eastern marches is not exactly a political structure since it's not organized, but marches can mean boundary area, and oftenly unorganized, and thus is the name

the Von Braun Desert is because of the space museum and the prominent Saturn V

Concordia well, the Concorde

Wayne island because someone put on a sign saying he's going to build a Bruce Wayne mansion there

Hammer's marsh because of the banhammer monument

All the taigas are named from Russian prominent space-related figures, Korolev from Sergei Korolev, located just next to Von Braun to reflect that they both aimed for the moon, Konstantin taiga, started from the city to the end of the peninsula in the east is named from Tsiolkovsky.

Wright isle is from Wright Brothers, Shepard hills is from Alan Shepard of course.

the strait of tranquility is requested by somebody

the south island is still unnamed by the owner, and it would be great if they propose a name for it

Marksburg because of the hut I built there, I'm planning it to be a castle in the future and a town.

Well, these are all just proposals, please discuss it, I put the labels/names just so that you people can just say "change Konstantin into X" to ease up the discussion, so please criticize and propose some names :D

Well, the area from the Korolev Taiga to the Eastern Marches certainly is a peninsula that looks like some animal, maybe someone can find a nice name.

Some suggestions for the area around my castle:

Haven't been on the server for some weeks, but I still have some big expansion plans for the castle...

This morning I found a jungle island on the south east corner of the map. It's really, really far away from Communia. Check the Dynmap for location.

If it's alright with everyone, I'm planning on setting up a nature preserve on the island. I'd like to do a lodge, some trails, things like that. I want to preserve the look and feel of the place while still allowing for "modern" amenities. If there are no objections, I'll start looking into it. I'll need a nether portal for easy access, obviously. :)

Please bring back some saplings of the trees.

True that is, I thought about something like Ravenland, but the form seems too mammalian to have a bird's name, perhaps Griffyn?
