Try Mob Counter.

Server is up, BTW. :cool:

Is that it? i'll give it a try, gonna have to ask on the MC forums about the build methinks they probably have the answer already, (Fitzy said he think's it'd work but I'm not 100% yet) so, does anyone know if mobs will spawn in the end if the area is loaded even if a player isn't nearby? Ie I've make a platform 150 blocks out so that all terrestial mobs despawn (ender men on the main island of the end) and I keep the area chunk loaded, would mobs continue to spawn even when Im' not there? Or if not would fake players (turtles on spinning loop, and the attonemous activator) work to trigger mob spawns?

Edit:

Down again

Dec, could you look at the logs and see if Iron spikes have anything to do with the crash? Seems both times it crashed I'd either placed one or a mob died on one just before.. or I could just be very unlucky xD

deconduo

Yeah its spikes that are breaking it. I disable extrautils for now and restarted.

The Snipe

Thanks, I'll submit it as a bug report

And happy Christmas!

Its a shame that the spikes couldn't be disabled, as our base's powergen was built around ExUtils Now I'll have to use the old BuildCraft pump - the one that lags and destabilizes the entire server... :eek:

The Snipe

Oh **** yeah! My pump! There should be a way to disable only a certain item? I'm sure we can look at it after Christmas

Edit, Dec if you change the item ID to 0 it should just change to an iron shovel, which would mean that everything else can be enabled

Blast from the past for some of you guys.

Merry Christmas.

BTW, if you log on to the server today, go outside and look up at the sky ... :eek:

The Snipe

Still raining chickens with pig hats? We saw it last night and didn't know what was going on

I think it was giving me a bit of an FPS hit though (mine are usually low enough, but with that it became completely unplayable, but it could have just been my laptop!) Edit: Turns out Hats mod and Opis cause severe fps drops, which would explain a lot considering the hats & chickens. Gonna have to wait until that stops before I can play again properly

Happy Christmas everyone!

Has anyone had issues with vanishing farm animals? All of our sheep have vanished since last night o_O

Vanishing ender lillies but no animals that have been noticeable anyway.
The biome with the little daisies as grass blocks don't allow sheep to eat so I they don't grow their wool back though!
Methinks it's time to move...

Solitaire

Create a small paddock for them with normal grass? Or is it completely biome-specific?

Xeyn

Dirt and grass changes to this specific type of 'grass' in this biome. It's 'pretty' I suppose but it has it's drawbacks apparently.

Are we building a 'spawn village' or not bothering?

The enderlilles are gone, as of the removal of ET, but I remember you saying it alright.. Come move down by me? :v

Also, is it possible to disable hats client side and be able to log in still? Or would it not allow me?

I wouldn't mind a spawn village either, means we could pool together for a kinda public resource kinda thing (mob farms, power etc) to help everyone that connects get started, I've plans for a public mob essense endertank/tesseract when I get that up and running properly, but over ET being removed Im' not completely screwed on power for my entire base so I need to figure that one out before I can move on..

I have always much preferred servers that didn't have spawn villages tbh. I think making a spawn area that has a signpost pointing to village which is maybe a full days walk away is better than having new players spawn into the center of a full village.

bnt

Well, if the Survival server is resuscitated, we could have a spawn village there as before, and leave FTB without one?

We sort of had it like that when they first introduced villages. We took over all of the closest villages and linked them up.

As a survival fan what I hate is spawning into a server for the first time only to discover that I'm in a building or town so big that it could never have been built in survival mode. It may be impressive but it's daunting. Having villages are great and linking them up gives people something to do.

If in doubt don't update? :v


DW20 pack is up to 1.0.8, should we update or wait?

What I do is: first try without updating, and if I get errors upon connecting to the server, then I start again and update.

Well, I decided to test my theory.. been trying to fix crashes for the last hour! And I've even reverted back to 1.0.7

I checked the changelog though.. theres some pretty nice things in there! Natura seems to have some new blocks!

The Snipe

Anyone else find this update really buggy? Crashing like a crazy man! Litterly spent the last 40 minutes trying to log in but I keep crashing cause it can't register some of the liquids (Liquid DNA, and Ethanol) saying they don't exist (Why liquid DNA is being called is beyond me, considering Binnies Mods aren't included yet).

From the minecraft website.

I wouldn't throw the word ignorant around too much when you're looking for help yourself.
