Suggestions & Ideas / Custom Advancements [1.12]
« on: 20 Jul 2017, 20:52:22 »
So, one of the bigger but perhaps not-so-widely known changes to Minecraft for the 1.12 update was the complete overhaul of the achievements system. The original achievement screen was replaced with a completely new GUI featuring multiple tabs, different tiers of difficulty and a method of adding new, custom achievements to world saves.
It is the last of those points I want to talk about. See, I was looking at the advancements screen, and I noticed that a number of the advancements are simply unobtainable with how the server works ("Subspace Bubble" and "Uneasy Alliance", for example, which both involve nether portals). I also think that a number of us have been feeling the absence of ongoing quests at the moment, and therefore I want to make a suggestion.
Adding custom advancements to the server in replacement of the Vanilla counterparts would create short-term goals for players and therefore promote activity. It could fill that competitive void left by theme months, and, in fact, would provide a more lag-conservative and accessible host for future questlines as they would not require so much reliance on NPCs. I can also confirm that they are server-side; no download would be required for players.
I understand that staff might currently be unfamiliar with the workings of advancements - I myself am not exactly an expert - and therefore implementing this feature would be difficult. However, this board is, as far as I'm aware, open to any and all suggestions, so I thought I'd put this one out there.
If you've made it this far down the post, hats off to you, sir  :P

Edit: I realise after posting that I didn't really provide any examples of how these advancements would work, so I'll do that now:
A general tab called "Noobstown" or something along those lines would feature advancements such as "Businessman" (Descriptive text: "Order in the Auction!"), which would be received after listing an item on /ah, and "Millionaire" (Descriptive text: "Next stop: 1 billion nbz"), which would be received after hitting 1 million nbz. In fact, you could have a whole advancement tree stemming around /balance milestones, or power levels, or that kinda thing.
Theme month tabs could have more specific advancements. For example, say it's a hypothetical superhero-themed month. Advancements would include "Pacifist" (Descriptive text: "Rid the World of Weapons"), which would involve tossing any sword into a fire, and "Supernoob" (Descriptive text: "It's a bird! It's a plane!") which would be received after flying with the elytra with strength effect applied or something like that. Upon completing all advancements in this tab you might receive a custom head or some other reward along those lines.
These are just a couple of random examples.

Noobstown General / The NoobsTARDIS [Doctor Who TARDIS in MC]
« on: 18 Jun 2016, 23:18:40 »
Hey all,
For the past couple of weeks I've been working on a little project in my wild: the TARDIS. It can be found at /visit dalek27463 and currently contains the following rooms (images below):
  • Main console (Series 8/9)
  • Library (Series 7)
  • Backup console #1 (Classic console)
I plan to integrate the swimming pool, wardrobe and a couple of other backup consoles over time. If there are any rooms in particular you'd like to see, let me know.
Any and all feedback is welcome and accepted with gratitude.

Could be difficult to have a trader for snowball rewards seeing as they're all unique items with different NBT tags.
That said, I like the idea :P

Support / Re: Automatic Farms
« on: 30 Nov 2015, 23:01:17 »
Auto cobble doesn't work for the very reason i mentioned above.

However an application of redstone and pistons which is cycled manually would work. Clocks just get out of sync with pistons because a few milliseconds of lag can amount to a tick or two, and that builds up etc.
Auto ones do work, you just have to increase the repeater delay by a ton. I think I only got mine working with at least five repeaters all on max delay.

Support / Re: Server Merge?
« on: 13 Sep 2015, 19:54:54 »
The servers will merge in terms of community/players coming together but there will still be two separate machines, this will happen during v6. No, it won't be a hub/mini game will be a dedicated game mode you can switch in and out of and be rewarded on both servers. The system is called 'Dungeons' or 'Noobstown Dungeons' so it's part of the whole package over here but it's essentially Apocalypse theme/features/gameplay.
So Mineapoc will become like a Noobstown world such as Nether/Mine/Towny that has seperate permissions and such from other worlds? Or am I misunderstanding?

So, with Wizard Month underway (which has been amazing fun, by the way - thank you admins and staff), Wintersbreath has decided to get involved!
The attached photo depicts the town's new Wizard Tower, the cave entrance to which is located just after the lake tunnel. Inside you will find a public Nether Wart farm, public brewing stands and a multi-level selector enchanting table more advanced than the one at town spawn.
Also, I've set up a mini-quest in the town, where you must located all six "spilt potions". They're basically purple carpets which are glowing and have nether portal particles. Near each is a sign, the message on which you must /msg or /mail me.
Note: Do not reply the messages in this post!
There will be a small reward for those who find the spilt potions on Sunday, when the quest will be taken down.
Enjoy!

I will be entering with a "sandcastle" at my /visit

Class name: Summoner
Kit:
- (Head) Herobrine player skull - Command to get: /give <player name> minecraft_skull 1 3 {SkullOwner:MHF_Herobrine} - Is an official Mojang head for custom maps and such.
- Leather chestplate, dyed purple
- Leather leggings, dyed purple
- Leather boots, dyed black
- 6x Snow
- 3x Pumpkin
- * Previously 3x Wolf Spawn Eggs here, but I had a better idea * 15x Bones to summon 3 tamed wolves using the click 5 bones on ground trick.
- Iron Sword
- Healing I potion
Overview: Class can spawn 3 wolves, 3 snow golems and has magical glowing eyes :)

Class name: Mechanic
Kit:
- Leather helmet, not dyed
- Iron chestplate
- Leather leggings, not dyed
- Leather boots, dyed black
- 3x TNT
- Iron Door (For a small barrier)
- 3x Redstone Torches
- 9x Redstone (Dust)
- 3x Firework (Perhaps for a victory dance?)
- 1x Stone Sword
- 3x Healing II Potions
- 1x Iron Block (Anvil, would also need basic materials to repair with.)
          ^ I imagine this class sort of replacing the oddjob.
Overview: Main special ability is that player can place and detonate TNT. Also has an anvil so player can repair tools.

Edit: Had a few more ideas:

Class name: Ninja or assassin
Kit:
- Leather helmet, dyed black
- Leather chestplate, dyed black
- Leather leggings, dyed black
- Leather boots, dyed black - Enchanted with Feather Falling 4 and Depth Strider 3.
- Stone Sword, named "Katana", with the generic.movementSpeed modifier tag.
- 16x Snowball, named "Shuriken"
- 1x Healing II potion
- 3x Jump Boost II potion (Now available in Vanilla with 1.8.x)
- 1x Invisibility Potion
Overview: Has stealth, speed and leaping abilities. Also has both a ranged and melee weapon.

Class name: Berserker
Note: This class depends on the capability to give a single potion several effects, I don't know if the admins can do that.
Kit:
- 3x "Berserker" Potion: Nausea, Speed II, Strength II, Resistance II, Jump Boost I, Instant Health II, Fire Resistance II, Absorption, Regeneration I
- Diamond Axe
- Chain Chestplate
- Leather Leggings
- Leather Boots
Overview: Is super OP when has Berserker potion on, but fairly weak otherwise. The 3 potions is just a recommendation, amount could be raised or lowered.
Edit: Found it is possible, and in Vanilla, to create custom potions with more than one effect. Berserker potion would look something like this, I imagine:
/give @p potion 3 8203 {CustomPotionEffects: [ {Id: 1,Amplifier: 1,Duration: 3600},{Id: 5,Amplifier: 1,Duration: 3600},{Id:6,Amplifier: 1,Duration: 20},{Id: 8,Amplifier: 0,Duration: 3600},{Id: 9,Amplifier: 1,Duration: 3600},{Id: 11,Amplifier: 0,Duration: 3600},{Id: 12,Amplifier: 0,Duration: 3600},{Id: 21,Amplifier: 4,Duration: 3600}],display: {Name: "Berserker Potion",Lore:["Become Super OP for 3 minutes!","(Headaches may occur as a side effect - no refunds.)"]}}
Bit long, but it does the job.
I also added some more armor to the berserker, feel like it would be ridiculously underpowered in later rounds without the potion, and changed the weapon to the more suitable axe.

Memorable Moment: I was thinking about this for a while; I feel like every moment on Noobstown is memorable. That's probably why I spend a fairly large amount of the day online.
The moment I chose in the end is an old one, well relatively old. A while back while I was giving a member the tour of the town I'm Co-Mayor of, Wintersbreath, a VIP called Countdown180 decided to play a visit. In secret.
He was basically stalking me using the /jump command. It was rather amusing, and I guess he got the tour too, right?
This little game was repeated a couple of times before Count decided to turn it into a PvP session; I had to try and kill him.
I actually managed it in the end, knocking him within an inch of his life before watching him fall off the "Ice Warrior", a statue in Wintersbreath which has now actually been torn down and replaced with a copy of "Gandalf the Snow".
I received a Wither Skull from those events (thanks for that, Count), which I have now promptly lost, but that's not the point.

I believe there are reasons why Noobstown does not use one command block creations.
Firstly, several one command creations - such as your mentioned furniture command - are available in plugin form. I do believe there was a topic about that recently.
Secondly, complex command block creations require extremely fast redstone clocks which could and would cause a large amount of lag on the server.
I personally am greatly interested in one command block creations, and often use them, but I don't think they are meant for Noobstown.

Suggestions & Ideas / Re: A furniture like plugin
« on: 25 Jun 2015, 18:41:53 »
I checked it out, it looks very good. What I wonder is that it might cause lag on the server, but I hope the admins consider this plugin.

Mm, the fact that it uses complex armor stand structures will certainly cause some lag.
Not even sure it'll work at all outside of the Wild world, seeing as we can't as of now place armor stands elsewhere.

Just out of curiosity, can we still send in MAs that are not part of the competition to be added to the server (if they are worthy of it) in the future?

I've found that downgrading works, though you have to be patient; I could only respawn while spamming the respawn button until it randomly decided to be clickable.

« on: 3 Jun 2015, 19:36:31 »
I am currently receiving the same issue, and cannot respawn even if switching to 1.8.6 from my 1.8.3 OptiFine. Pressing F6 (linked with Twitch Broadcasting) and cancel is also not making any difference.

Edit: Something worth mentioning is that the F6 screen glitches actually shut before I have the chance to click cancel - possibly block glitching?

Towns & Nations / Re: The great /PLOT FS work-around
« on: 31 May 2015, 22:24:45 »
Something to note is that, at least for me (as a co-mayor), you are unable to use some other towny commands such as /plot set upon setting yourself as an assistant aswell as a mayor/co/sub-mayor.
I would therefore recommend only setting yourself as an assistant when you need to sell plots, and keep it off otherwise.
