Summary: General - Wiki Cleanup General - Xrayers Survival - Dungeon tweaks Survival - Guest Permission Changes Survival - Mcmmo Ranks Survival - Mcmmo Tweaks Survival - Quest Tweaks Survival - Satchels Survival - Staff Update Survival - Town Chat Survival - Wilderness Command General - Wiki Cleanup There are many changes going on in the wiki right now to make our lives easier, and they're pretty cool! http://wiki.shadecrest.com/index.php/Template:Mctext http://wiki.shadecrest.com/index.php/Template:Clickbox http://wiki.shadecrest.com/index.php/Template:Subpagetable And the most impressive thing: A weekly update generator! No, seriously, it reads through Trello and does all the hand work for us! http://wiki.shadecrest.com/index.php/Trello:Update General - Xrayers We've been dealing with an influx of xrayers lately, and we'd like to remind everyone that xraying is against the rules and will result in a ban. That is all. Survival - Dungeon tweaks The Sewers and Monument dungeons have new spawning algorithms that should produce a more consistent difficulty, rather than ranging from "stupid easy" to "kill-me-now hard". These spawn rates are not final, but they are much easier for us to work with. Survival - Guest Permission Changes If you haven't already noticed, guests are able to build in the main world. This is not a bug, but a test to see how the server is affected. Guests are still heavily encouraged to take the tutorial, and have some features blocked until they do (creating a town, buying warps) Other rank changes: New players (yellow) are allowed to create a town and buy warps Members (green) can create nations and use /c Survival - Mcmmo Ranks Reaching a high mcmmo level is something to be proud of, and now it's something you can show off! When you reach a high enough power level, you will automatically get a tag in front of your name for the server to see. There are 5 ranks (1 - 5) that can be achieved with 2600 power level per rank. Rank 1: 2600 Rank 2: 5200 ... Rank 5: 13000 Survival - Mcmmo Tweaks Brand new to mcmmo: repair shields and elytra on an iron anvil! The elytra can be repaired with 4 leather, and the shield can be repaired with 1 iron ingot. The damage boost done by unarmed has been nerfed so that it's NOT 20 times better than swords near max level. The mining xp from end stone has been severely cut, and is now worth the same as packed ice and stained clay Survival - Quest Tweaks Look at all the new gold quests! Well sort of, they are placeholders right now, but we'll be working on them very soon! The trading quests have also been tweaked to be less annoying for the sake of being annoying. Finally, the long standing "hey, where'd most of that gold go" bug has been patched. Quests shouldn't rip you off again Survival - Satchels Want more inventory space? Look no further! Satchels offer portable inventories that you can open on the fly to expand your storage needs. Either right-click with a satchel in your hand, or (with your inventory open) right click on the satchel itself to open. All items are stored in the satchel, so you can throw it to other players or store it in a chest! Notes: You can have as many satchels as you want. If you have a satchel open, you can't move it around your inventory. Satchels don't fit inside other satchels. See the crafting recipes on the bottom floor of /warp museum! Survival - Staff Update Staff has changed a lot since the last time one of these was posted, so we'll just list the current staff. Admin: ezeiger92, King_Videot Mod: Hydrarem, lachie314159265, Legogood If you like helping people and want to have a shot at staff, read the new staff application post here: http://www.shadecrest.com/site/threads/7256/ Survival - Town Chat The long wait for town chat is finally over! Use /tc or /nc to toggle town/nation chat. You can also use /tc [message] to send a message to your town without switching chat modes. Survival - Wilderness Command This is old news, but the last "Week in ShadeCrest" was months ago. Players can use /wild to get a random location in pvp (/wild pvp) or pve (/wild pve) If you are trying to travel with a friend and they've randomly teleported away, simply use /wild [playername] to request a teleport. This only works for a short time, so be quick if you want to group up.
Small warning for satchels: we are looking into a rare bug that can rarely clear their inventory on restart. There is a theoretical fix on the server, but we lack a way to test it. If you'd like to help us test, put some junk items in any of your satchels before you leave for the day. If they disappear, then we'll have to keep looking for a fix.
