Took the opportunity to make the best of the quiet spell to turn the mobs off and repair the enderman farm. Over the 10 levels I found 41 stuck blocks which reduce efficiency because the endermen can spawn on top of those blocks and there's nothing to push them off so they just sit there. This happens when an enderman spawns on a pressure plate as it should then as the piston activates to push it off, another enderman spawns in the gap when the extended piston arm is, preventing the piston from retracting mad. The enderman will stay they until you leave The End when it will then despawn. The trouble is that the piston arm also stays in the extended position, meaning that they can spawn on the block that's attached to said piston! hehe If the stupid thumbsnap uploader would work I'd illustrate the problem with a screenshot I got grumpy . Here's a link to click instead - http://www.flickr.com/photos/21639063@N07/69516577...

Even after repairs it still seems down on efficiency, taking just under 8 mins to get from 0-50 XP. Initially when I extended the upper levels it would do 0-50 in under 6 mins. I can't see nor find anything wrong with it either which is frustrating.

On a related note, can you all make sure to remove the bulk of the ender pearls from the floor when finished. It causes severe amounts of server lag until they despawn if you leave them there as there can be nearly 1000 entities after a couple of runs. The sides of the path to the farm are all open so just stand near the edge and drag the pearls out of your inventory and release left click which will throw them into the void.

Anyone know of a good mapper for single player? The ones I used to use aren't being updated any more.

For top down or isometric views, Cartograph_G works in 1.2.5:
Edit: PH formatting broked the link. Have to copy & paste

I have also used Overviewer before, gives a very detailed orthographic view in a Google Maps style web page.

Was just on the Vanilla PH MC server, and sombodys dicked up my stuff.


My coloured sheep farm, has been removed, and only a small paddock of fences and uncolourd sheep remain.

also the big Zombie statue i was working on, has also vanished

Did the server rollback?

or did somebody set light to it..
Only just noticed this post. Your stuff is still there. We don't have griefers on this server. Are you continuing building it or what? Not seen any progress on it since a long time now.

Paul, I guess it isn't possible to rig that overviewer up to a server and pull the data from there? It has to be on your local HDD?

Overviewer would have to be installed on the server running Minecraft. I did see "Automated daily cartograph map generation" at http://jestservers.com/2011-06/rent-minecraft-dedi... so maybe All That Jazz/Rik/Rob could ask Jest about that... biggrin

There is no whitelist and the IP is public, there is no way for us to know!

They're on there now but the map is lagging so their damage is probably limited.

PS just remake your achemy bag, you'll have access to all that is within!

Unfortunately a lot of my trunks have been destroyed and a load of stuff I had in my inventory like reactor plates etc has gone as I had it on my table at the time. What a load of s.

PS, could a whitelist be set up?

Sounds like griefers, tried to get on the Tekkit server but it's even worse for lag than usual, my laptop just can't handle it hehe

If it's possible can whitelists be set up? Also the server could be rolled back to a previous world save so you can get all your stuff back.

Yep, I see Freecars house has also been trashed...

Maybe it is time to start again and have a whitelist or maybe if we can rollback a day or so?

BoulderPaul, how did you get Cartograph to render an overview of a multiplayer server? I'd like to be able to create a map showing the trainlines and where people 'live' etc. All I need is an overview of world so I can mark stuff on.
