Server Announcements / Noobstown Update: 6.1
« on: 8 Feb 2015, 03:08:07 »
Hello all,

To celebrate Noobstown V6 turning 1 years old, we're releasing our largest update yet! - This update covers many changes to the Wilderness system which has been requested or feedback to us since the launch. We have hopefully simplified the system and made improvements where necessary. As always with large updates there may be bugs, please do report them and if you have any other suggestions to further improve our systems feel free to make a post!

The Mining, Nether and End have also been reset. Top Voters for January will be released over the next few days!

Wilderness System changes/fixes:
  • Fixed issues with wilderness land saying it is in the process of being purchased when it isn't
  • Fixed issues with leaves decaying in unowned land and thus damaging the natural landscape
  • Fixed issues with sand and other blocks outside of owned land updating on purchase
  • Fixed issues with sleeping in beds in land you don't have rights in
  • Fixed small issue with land regeneration being cancelled in unlikely circumstances
  • Fixed issue with liquids damaging areas on land regeneration leading to incorrectly regenerated land
  • Fixed small issue with safe teleporting when no suitable location could be found
  • Fixed small issue where blocks could be placed against areas which weren't allowed
  • Fixed several small spelling mistakes
  • Fixed issue with /back not working with teleporting to wild homes
  • Fixed problem with being able to breed selected animals with netherwart on land without herding permissions
  • Fixed issue allowing on rare occasions units being placed on the edge of owned land
  • Fixed issue where sometimes users wouldn't be recognised as existing even though they definitely did
  • Fixed problem where TNT could wrongly damage certain entities in the wilderness
  • Fixed problem where TNT minecarts could wrongly damage certain entities in the wilderness
  • Fixed problem where snow sheets could wrongly be placed on certain land
  • Wilderness commands will now auto-complete on tab
  • Added teleport delay for all wilderness commands (which involve teleporting) for non-VIPs
  • Slight change to the land owner message when you move between chunks
  • When teleporting in the Wilderness land the owner of land is now displayed
  • Land will now display how many Nbz short you are when attempting to purchase but unable to afford a chunk
  • When purchasing land it will inform you if you're trying to buy land which isn't connected to existing land
  • Added in the ability to view a map of the ownership of chunks around you, much like in towny. Using the command '/wild chunks map'
  • Added the ability to effectively sell chunks off to your friends. Simply by typing '/wild chunk transfer' it will allow any of your friends to then come and buy the land from you (you will lose all ownership of everything in the chunk) for the price of their next chunk (plus a 50,000Nbz transfer fee) using '/wild chunk buy' as normal. You won't get any money from doing so, but if you wanted to give the land to one of them you can do this. Typing the command again will stop them from being able to buy it, if they haven't already. Upon buying an existing user's land all unit locks and chunk settings are reset, with the new owner being given access by default.
  • Added a new player given rank called "Organisers" who have access to ALL your units by default! These can be controlled using '/wild organiser' and using commands similar to builders: adding, removing and listing etc.
    Please add these at your own risk they will be able to access every single chest etc. you or any of your builders place in the wilderness by default. You can turn off/on these players from accessing an individual unit using the command '/wild unit organisers' when pointing at a unit. You can check if they're able to access a specific unit using '/wild unit info'.
  • Completely removed the '/wild unit type' command and replaced this with the new system below:
    • Introduced new command to toggle builder access to a unit '/wild unit builders'
    • Introduced new command to toggle whether or not a unit is public or not '/wild unit public'
    • Introduced new command to reset the permissions of a unit '/wild unit reset'
    You no longer need to set the type! It is calculated automatically according to who/what you give access!
  • Introduced new command to explicitly deny a player access to a unit '/wild unit deny [name]', this will override any other access rights given.
  • Units placed by a builder (or anyone in a public chunk) will now automatically give the person who places them access rights; so no more placing a unit and then discovering issues with wanting to connect things to it
  • Hoppers can no longer be placed next to units which you don't have access to
  • Editing units by looking at them should now be easier
  • When placing a double chest the permissions set on the original individual chest will now copy over to the newly placed chest (Won't reset permissions like before)
  • Introduced new command to allow people who don't own any land to find an unowned area really quickly '/wild chunks go'
  • Introduced new shorter alternative commands for faster use (the longer forms still work):
    • '/wild home [number]' = '/wild chunks home [number]'
    • '/wild mark' = '/wild chunks mark'
    • '/wild buy' = '/wild chunk buy'
    • '/wild sell' = '/wild chunk sell'
    • '/wild map' = '/wild chunks map'
    • '/wild go' = '/wild chunks go'
  • Made small changes to the price of wilderness land when owning a large area
  • Several commands now have alternative options to make it easier to understand when compared with Towny commands
  • Beacons can now be placed as a decorative item in the wilderness world (they cannot emit any potion effects still though)
  • Updated the way messages are displayed (if you notice any issues with any /wild messages please PM me)
  • Reduced the max price for a single connected chunk from 500,000Nbz to 200,000Nbz
  • Increased the number of separations at the cheaper price (50,000Nbz) from 3 to 7! You can now go and spread your builds out!
  • Reduced the expensive separation fee from 1,000,000Nbz to 500,000Nbz
  • Made all chunk prices cheaper than before!

Mcmmo:
  • Reduced Exp required per Fishing Level
  • Increased EXP per Potion craft
  • Reduced Exp required per Alchemy Level
  • Reduced Exp required per Swords Level
  • Reduced Exp required per Axes Level
  • Reduced Exp required per Archery Level

  • Significant changes to Repair Mastery & Super Repair
  • Exp per Lilypad increased

Dynamic Spawning:

Server Announcements / Reminder: Name Changing
« on: 4 Feb 2015, 18:54:12 »
Hey all,

Name changing is now live, please do not change your name or you will be unable to access the Cloudsquid Network servers for an unknown length of time. We're working hard to update all of our plugins that we create and outside sourced plugins to support this, but for the meantime we are not supporting the changing of your username.

Full details here: https://www.noobscraft.com/server/username-changing-update/

TLDR; Changing your name will stop access to our servers for an unknown amount of time.

Server Announcements / Spawners galore!
« on: 1 Jan 2015, 22:44:08 »

Hey Noobs,

We're pleased to announce that as of today spawners are back in Noobstown! - We know this has been requested numerous times since the launch of V6 and we're happy to finally bring them back.

How to purchase a spawner?
  • You can purchase a select number of spawners for in-game Nbz by typing /spawners
  • Alternatively you can visit the donation page and donate for spawners + exclusive donation only spawners

Animal cannot be changed after placement. Item cannot be picked up after placement.

Spawners are highly valued items. We hope players on the server will enjoy working towards the goal of obtaining one, for their town or personal chunks.

Website Gifting

We're also introducing a new feature in December which will allow you to gift presents via the website inventory. So if you're feeling extra generous this year, please send all your cookies to Fatnoob. Thank you!

Network Update

There is still an ongoing investigation into the network/lag issues on Noobstown, however, i'm pleased to inform you that we are getting closer to permanently solving the problem. The issue is directly effected by our DDoS protection which when routing is causing certain players with higher PING to lag or D/C, in some extreme cases causing the entire server to D/C or timeout. We want to let you know that we haven't given up on this problem and have been working to resolve the issue since day 1, thank you again for your continued patience and understanding.

Server Announcements / Server machine merge
« on: 16 Sep 2014, 03:10:10 »
Hey all,

In light of recent events, we have decided that we will be merging both of our servers onto one machine in the coming weeks/months. This is to both save resources and cut down on costs. The future of Minecraft is very unpredictable at the moment, wasting resources and adding extra costs to running the servers will not benefit the players who enjoy our servers long term.

What will this mean?

From a player perspective, very little. We'll be moving the Apocalypse files over to our New York machine (Noobstown) which means both of the servers will be now located in USA. The decision to move both servers to the US machine will be most beneficial for the majority of players that connect to our servers and as a result, will yield better game play experience inside the game.

Will this cause lag?

No, the New York machine is very powerful and has plenty of space. We have very little concerns of any impact it will have on performance as we currently use very little of our machine on Noobstown alone.

Connection info change?

No, you will still be able to connect to each server using the normal connection info.

More information will be released once we have a set date the merge will be carried out. The two servers will be offline during the merge.

Future

As we continue to work on both Noobstown v6 and Apocalypse 2.0 there will always be room for expansion of the network in the future. As this is a difficult and worrying time in the Minecraft community the decision has been made to better safeguard our servers/community/friends we've made over these 4 years of running servers. Thank you once again to everyone who has supported us through thick and thin, we hope to continue being able to provide you all with fun experience for years to come.

Hey all,

We've successfully updated to a protocol version of 1.8 (Meaning we are now able to allow 1.8 client to connect to Noobstown). 1.8 features and information will come when the full version is available, until then enjoy all of the client-side features 1.8 brings (New skins etc.) *You can still connect with a 1.7 client*

More information regarding 1.8 features and Noobstown related updates will be posted later this month. The Mining world will be reset when 1.8 is available to ensure all the new features/blocks are in place when you come online. If for whatever reason we are not able to receive an update for 1.8 in a reasonable time frame the mining world will be updated as per usual with a 1.7 seed.

UPDATE: We are aware of problems with the live map and pets in this updated version, once we transition to a full 1.8 version we will hopefully fix these issues.
