Can silvester3 be added to the whitelist? I won't say plx this time Peter. :P
I like the current setup (no mobs but not full creative) but adding mobs would be okay, as long as they were scaled back a bit somehow. I find it irritating to get up after one night on survival mode and find half a dozen creepers still wandering around. :( I've heard of servers where they play with no explosions, making creepers pretty much harmless but not mitigating the danger of other mobs, plus explosions destroy stuff you've made and that sucks.
As for a new map, I wouldn't be against it but I haven't actually built much of any size so I'd rather leave any decision to people people who've made stuff like the citadel. It would help fix the weird cutoffs between terrain generated in the old and new engines though. If the old map can be maintained alongside a new one that would be ideal.
Not sure which version you're playing, but currently when you're low on food you get your avatar grunting every 3 seconds as though someone's clubbing him over the head and the view skews off to one side as though someone's clubbing him over the head. :C
This may be down to the regeneration - you lose some health due to hunger, then goes back up again, not sure if it still does that at half health. :?
That's fine, but the health on Teh Server auto regenerates - so you lose half a heart to hunger when the food bar reaches 0, and then immediately regenerates, so never actually gets to the half way mark where it stops dropping.
'Cos of the regeneration you constantly keep losing half a heart along with the grunting sound and annoying screen tilt that happens when you take damage.
:C
