Turtle, Banned Items & LUA

I was on the server again today, build a lamp sign for the spawn & I also managed to map navigate points for the turtle to travel to the spawn & my underwater lab. I was also able to add the banned items to the Blocker plugin. For the majority of the day I was helping rich2011 setup a mining turtle to excavate then drop the resources in a chest. I was able out much but tomorrow is the anniversary of Safebox & therefore I'm going to hold a celebration on the server. Beforehand I'm going to attempt to learn a bit of LUA to understand the ComputerCraft program better.

War of Gods, Infinite Error Loop & Pet Turtle

Managed to guard Admin Island against normal users. Hacker & I had a fight however because he claims one of the plugins is causing errors. We had what I would call a War of Gods, he kicked & banned me, I undid his damage, kicked him then unopped him. He still had access to the console & forced the server to restart. Fortunately the other two players & I quit & joined the game again before he restart it so when we joined everything was fine. Hacker on the other hand lost all build activity since his last login. We eventually cleared things up but not too soon after we all disconnected with time out errors. Originally I thought the hosts were updating their servers but eventually a member of support contacted me claiming that it was someone's redstone contraption that had cause an infinite error loop (eg. setting a timer to turn itself on). I deleted the world & replaced it with one from Hacker & mine's private server. I worldguarded Admin Island again & created a better spawn. I also gave myself a pet turtle from the ComputerCraft mod. Still trying to figure out LUA code that will let it go to specific co-ordinates.

Admin Island, WorldGuard & Minoria Files

Today I was able to start work on my house on Admin Island. Someone else started griefing, he wasn't at the same time as me but I've set the server to jail him next time he joins. I've taken the server offline until I can WorldGuard the island. I've also decided to release the source files for Minoria once the game is complete. This will allow me to start work on my next game.

Turnout, Minecraft Celeb & Mushroom Island

Today was an utter success! Got quite a few people on the Tekkit server launch. Two fans from the fb page, a moderator from a server I've previously played on (as well as being someone I know personally) & even a celeb among Minecraft modders. Creator of the SkyrimCraft mod, madcrazydrumma whom is actually the brother of one of the fb fans. Should have a good day tomorrow, gonna start work on the mushroom island!

Tekkit Server, Teleporting & Official Statement

Today I was able to purchase the Tekkit Server. I've installed a few plugins to prevent grieving & undo explosions as well as teleport request system so I don't continually get asked to teleport players around. Hacker & I were once again arguing about the status of the bukkit & Tekkit servers. This is official: The Safebox Tekkit server is hereby the official Safebox Minecraft server until further notice given by me!

Return to Minoria, Plugins & Argumentative

I took a break today from Minecraft & Tekkit & continued working on Minoria. I managed to map half the base level of the map. Also I've started making a list of plugins I'm going to install in the Tekkit server. A couple of moments ago I was talking to Hacker about the servers & unfortunately we had a bicker about which server should be the official server. I still don't care what he says, the Tekkit server will be the official Safebox server!

New Website, Speed & Server Release

Today Horus was updating the website with a new layout & a new colour scheme whilst I was attempting to speed up Minecraft & Tekkit. I succeeded & now I should be able to join the Official Safebox Server with minimal lag. The server releases sometime between now & Wednesday, I'll post the IP when it's on.
