that's cool, coz I altered some of the track, it now goes further than is actually possible*




*may be a slight exaggeration

You can also now use /throttle [0-100] to set the speed ofyour cart :D

And in a cart, face the way you want to go and left click once to go, once to stop :D

Finally :D

 

Carts are a pain in the arse otherwise!

Don't tell Mouse though, he'll get upset.

Teleporting/warping/home/spawn are a bit fucked at the moment.

 

They work, but it takes /ages/ to load the level data around you, and sometimes it just gives up and you get booted.

 

It's a bug with Bukkit and it should be fixed soon (tonight or tomorrow). Will update the server as soon as the new version is out.

Is the new client eating too much RAM for anyone?

 

Went well over a GB for me giving me only about 5% free RAM overall. Used to only hit about 600-800MB.

Not noticed ram but it's crashing a /lot/.

:'(

I just did a quick test and it's got ~50% allocated, but never seems to get above 20% used before the garbage collector comes along and drops it back to ~12%.

That's with a relatively new world though, and not doing a great deal other than running around the tops of walls looking in all directions - I guess on Teh Server it has a lot more stuff to worry about.

Haven't had any crashes - other when actually trying to connect to the server (I now get a "mark/reset not supported" message, but it's the same error as before), but that's not really a crash in the sense I expect Xen means.

/antioch: Places LIVE TNT near or on the block your crosshair is on.

(giggle)

And, what does bukkit actually do, if not this stuff?

Bukkit is, even though it doesn't actually say this on their site because it is shit, an API for the server. It provides methods and events for plugins to use, but provides no user functionality.

 

Why can't they say that on they're website?

they're website ???

what about they're website?

 

(I blame android's autocorrect. Again :$ )

You can't blame android's auto-correct for not fixing you're mistake. :@

:((

I am trying to recover from a chest infection. I am excited to do some minecrafty stuff after months of not playing. I have just re-installed Windows. I will re-fix minecraft and hop on the server.

Is anyone else about? What community project is going at the moment?

The recent one was the huge tunnel. Otherwise we just tend to build our own masterpieces/monstrosities.

I think the world-wide railway is just about done*
and last night Drew & Kos roofed over a huge hole and planted way too many trees
so, dunno really



*if you can find a way to detect and remove all the empty minecarts that would be excellent

In single player, last autumn, I built a massive train station out of glass. I feel should get a screenshot, but even a screenshot wouldn't do it justice. I think only a video could show it off.

Well, anyway, I shall hop on Teh Mine and see what I feel inspired to do. Nothing destructive of course.
