TPU Minecraft Server

[FordGT90Concept]

It blocks view of the U from a long ways away and is close to Wasted's house.

Technically, in any spot you put it, it blocks the U from some perspective. It only blocks the TPU from my small shack. Other places it blocks nothing. Also, it is nowhere near wasted's house.

This game is a building free-for-all. There is no "Master engineer".
That's part of the fun. It's a game. Remember?

It blocks the U running on the main path from from the Tree Farm (where it starts drawing it) all the way to the water.

 

[Kreij]

So ... we have to worry about something we build blocking the "view" of something else?
If that's the case, why don't we have Newt just nuke the world and we'll make a new rule that says no building withing 500 blocks of someone else. That should solve that issue, no?

I can't log in to the server, it keeps telling me "kicked by admin"

 

[char[] rager]

I don't know, but a certain someone told me you had been kicked/banned.

Ugh. Let me catch up with Newt here.


How does a TPU Minecraft steam group sound? That way we could all be in the chat while playing to avoid the limitations of the in-game chat, which kind of sucks. I couldn't find any of you on Steam though.

 

[char[] rager]

That sounds like a possibility.

My steam account is under:

dcfjoe

My profile name is:

char rager[] = "{DCF}-Joe";

I am only telling you what we were talking about earlier. No one has officially blamed you for anything. However, as of right now, I think you are banned.

Well can't Tekie just check the logs or something? The only thing I admit to is the "PENIS" I created within my own project area a few days ago, while I was wondering what to actually create. The whole cabin TNT thing happened while I was working on my circular hilltop fort.

 

[char[] rager]

Newtekie already came on and told us that he does NOT think you did whatever it was you were accused of doing. Your ban may be lifted soon

 

[ShiBDiB]

a TNT incident? this game just sounds more and more worthwhile of purchasing every post... So then I can stop creeping this thread and join in on what appears to be high tech legos

 

[char[] rager]

The game is amazing. If you have an imagination.

 

[char[] rager]

I believe you are unbanned now soylent. Welcome back.

 

[Soylent Joe]

I believe you are unbanned now soylent. Welcome back.

Yep I know.

Ok, new rule: No building withing the "safe zone" without my approval. I've determined this safe zone to be approximately 200 blocks in each direction of spawn. Everything that is already there can stay, but anything new needs my approval first.

Any new building within the red square on the map needs to be run past me first.

 

[FordGT90Concept]

I see missing torches, be right back. XD


Community farm is done. Currently it has 210 wheat patches and 49 cactus plants. Once we stash up a bunch of cactus, the lower floor will become part sugar cane.


I think Caboose set his house on fire just before he left the server. If he didn't, I have no idea how it started. I was working in the community farm and Phx was in a cave far away. Luckily the fire didn't spread to anything except trees. It pretty much burned out before I could I react.


Kreij, if those trees are going to stay on your house, they need torches on them. Mobs will spawn on their canopies if they aren't lit.



Edit: Just mined 192 wheat and 130 seeds from the farm. It's in the chest down there if anyone wants it.

A painful place (147 cactus plants):

Harvest time!

I don't know if they will stay (I just wanted a nearby forest for fuel), but I will get torches up there when I can get back in the game (if I can get back in. lol)
I won't be able to get back in until tonight (at the earliest), so if it becomes problematic either toss a couple torches up there or cut down the trees (and remove any saplings so they don't grow).

 

[FordGT90Concept]

If you need an ample wood supply, there's always the tree farm.

I haven't seen anything spawn up there yet but the possibility exists.

 

[PVTCaboose1337]

Ok I woke up and see my house is gone, terrific. Happened between 1 am ish or whenever I got off to 2:37am when Ford reported it gone. Not sure how it happened... at least my items are there. Maybe newtekie can check the logs to shed some light on this.

Anyway, I am going to rebuild the wood structure of it. I do need some wool to work on the carpet however, that was an expensive loss.

EDIT: Ford says I can have the hill to the west of the tree farm (see pic). I will move my house there. Gonna be a slow move. Might need help tonight. Ford also says he suspects spontaneous combustion, which would explain the welcome center fire, and meow's fire.

 

[FordGT90Concept]

It was right after Caboose left. I said "FIRE!" I'm not sure how long it was burning before I said that but it couldn't have been long. It spread very fast (was threatening the Inn by the time I got to it and extinguished itself within 15-60 seconds after that).

 

[newtekie1]

The only 4 people on in the 10 minutes leading up to the fire were PVTCaboose1337, Ford90GTConcept, Phxprovost, wastedslayer. So either it started spontaniously or one of you started it.

Doing a little searching it does seem that fires starting randomly in SMP is a glitch others have been experiencing in the past as well. However, it is not one that happens all that often, so it doesn't get a lot of attention.

You can rebuild right where you were if you want Caboose, or you can build west of the tree farm, or in the open area north of the tree farm in the safe zone area. It might be easier to connect yourself to the path if you build north of the tree farm, but I know that area isn't exactly flat.

+1 to that, this thread really wants me to buy this game and start playing. I just know I'll get addicted though, don't know if I can afford that this semester .

Check if Wasted left before Caboose. I'm pretty sure he left before Caboose and rejoined after. I think Caboose was in his house when he left the server so if it were on fire, he would have noticed.

I find it strange that the fire started almost immediately after Caboose left (if not the same time). Maybe it would be wise not to leave the server when standing close to something flamable? I'm thinking it might be that rare glitch.

 

[Wastedslayer]

Yeah wasnt me lol, usually chilling in my home or mining at insane depths. Beleive I was helping with the farm that night anyway.
