HappyDiggers public TnFC server discussion thread

I would love to test this server, and I am sure I will enjoy playing it in the future, but I have been forced to abandon pc games for a while until I get a new computer. I will continue to weigh in from dynmap and in the forums.

As some of you may know I've not been well the past two weeks. Because of that I haven't done much work on the new server (sorry!).

I've added most of the stuff that needs protecting with Towny and Lockette and am now generating tiles in Dynmap. Once that is done I'll select a location for the spawn building and maze, put it in and get things ready for the testers to join.

In the mean time, do me a favor and send me your Minecraft in game name so I can add you to the whitelist if you are willing to do test work.

Can we write the MC name here? If so,

Health issues. Family issues. Other things. You know how life goes. But fret not. The HappyDiggers TnFC server is still in development!

A bunch of config stuff got done. A suitable spawn area has been found and terraformed. And, of course, the spawn building has been placed there. Tenterro has agreed to help out and build some awesome looking bridges around spawn.

It won't be long now. Here are some screens to wet your appetite. (click for larger versions)

Looking good ! Can't wait to start testing. Will testers have some sort of Trello board to collaborate in setting up to-do lists and handling them ? It could be beneficial especially if people from different time zones need to collaborate without being available during the same time period of the day.

Another way to go could be to have chests with signs saying what test needs to be ran on the blocks it contains.

There could also be a test Towny protected area with some locked chests and every possible machine blocks placed down and we could try to blow it up or push with pistons or pour lava.

What ever it is I can do to help I will do.

I have been doing some single player testing and I found a fluid duplication bug with Ship's Mod.

Spoiler!

- If you have a liquid block placed inside the structure of a docked ship. When you Launch the ship, all of the blocks previously occupied by the ship turn into a duplicated version of the fluid block. For example you can duplicate lava under water and it doesn't turn into obsidian until there is a block update.
- This could be abused to supply unlimited lava or any other fluid that can be placed as a block.

I am now in a position to help test. Thanks for all the work you've been putting in!

How's the testing going on since it's June and almost time for summer fun! Any release dates?
