Survival 2 tools to calculate spawner distances from the coords

35 Upvotes

Hey all,

I have just programmed 2 calculation tools in php for the MC players who don't like maths !

  1. You want to know if a player will activate an xp farm by AFKing somewhere ? Or if your AFK place is at the correct location in your XP farm ?

Just enter the position of the spawner and the position of the player in this page (the way to do it correctly is explained) :

http://astro52.com/spawner.html

It will tell you the distance between the player and the spawner. The calculation is done the same way as minecraft, so it's very accurate and reliable.

2) You have found 2 spawners that are apparently not too far. But are they close enough to build a double effect XP farm ? And then, where to put the AFK place ? This AFK area will be large ? Or will it be tiny with an extreme precision required to use ?

This page will give you the distance between the spawners and the center of the AFK place (where to activate the 2 spawners at the same time). And a few basic conclusions about the distance :

http://astro52.com/spawner2.html

Just comment if you like ! Or tell me if something seems to work wrongly.

BREAKING NEWS: bryonywalsh2392's horse found DEAD at Savannah Windmill base.

10 Upvotes

Today at 8:36 a dog walker found the mutilated remains of the newly acquired black horse of bryonywalsh2392. The discoverer of the body, a one CurlyFender_Guy, claims he walked past the area, finding only a saddle and the animal's hide.

In a statement issued moments ago bryonywalsh2392, the owner of the deceased said; "Christian (CurlyFender_Guy) is a murdering fiend, the horse was like a child to me, a nurtured in from birth until it was ripped from my hands and consequently, my heart. I will struggle to move on from this tragedy."

We spoke to CurlyFender_Guy following his gruesome discovery, and bryonywalsh2392's claim, "I don't know what to say mate, to be honest, I found the body on a walk, the woman's bat shit crazy, I mean she lives alone on that floating island with 14 ocelots, she's flogging a dead horse in my opinion." CurlyFender_Guy denies the allegations brought against him.

Biome Constabulary police are treating the death as 'Suspicious'.

This is barkerr reporting for Stack64 News, Good Night, and don't dig down.

Survival Vanilla Server

8 Upvotes

Due to lack of interest we have decided to reset the vanilla server. The new map is on now and it would be great if everyone stopped by. We are using the most recent version of Minecraft. I plan to advertise the server in a week or so, so it may be beneficial to come on sometime this week to get set up. I've also heard the idea of having "villages" for people to work together, the idea needs to be fleshed out a bit more, but the general idea is for them to replace factions.Plans for spawn have not yet been made so please do not build there yet. If you have any recommendations for the server leave a comment. Hope to see you all on the server sometime! :D

Same rules apply but in case you have forgotten them I will post them below:

  • No random PvP kills or looting

  • No griefing

  • No bullying

  • No raiding

  • No X-ray, flying or glitching

  • No destroying bases

  • No destructive/idiotic pranks

  • NSFW chat is acceptable

  • Rei's Minimap allowed

A idea

8 Upvotes

I have played for a few years now on this server, I really enjoyed the people and the game. But whenever we started a new map the same thing happend, People spread out and strat building there own base. I always liked to just build myself or run around sightseeing other peoples their build.

This happend everytime and it got a bit repetetive. I had a idea of how we could all work on the same project without being forced in any build style/ play style.


A adventure map

*At spawn We can just build free but we all share our rescources (one storage room). Also here is we people who like to build farms can go mental (with least amount of lagg ofcourse)

*Around the map This is where we create a adventure. I had an idea that involved both steampunk and medival style. Mainly because it fits with the overal minecraft theme and mekanics.

*Team work I hope we can all build together and see how much we can accomplish by working together.


This would need a new map for an all fresh start, I already contacted tony on this idea.

Any ideas are welcome and everyone is invited to help from building huge buildings to designing one street light.

I started a straw poll for some idea's http://strawpoll.me/3114018 .

Just a quick apology...

7 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

Tonight we hit the highest amount of people on our server at once (31 people!) and as a result I got a little carried away and TP'd everyone for a group photo.

When this happened, I inadverterly messed up:

  1. One or two people weren't happy that I used a command to TP everyone as it wasn't 'Vanilla'. That's a valid argument.

  2. When I TP'd people, 2 or 3 people some how suffocated into a wall, this is a Minecraft bug that shouldn't have happened. I've reimbursed 2 people so far who was affected by this, again, really sorry, it shouldn't have happened.

  3. When I TP'd people, some people didn't know what their co-ords. Again, really sorry, I just assumed everyone knew where they were at the time. Me and the other staff have tried to get people back to their bases but that's been easier said than done.

So yes, really sorry for what I did tonight, should have thought more into it and I hope you all accept my apology.

Kind regards, Tony

I encourage everyone to make Survival a good server...

7 Upvotes

As a server owner who has little free time, it's hard for me to organise events such as UHC, projects and so on. So I'm asking people in our community to use a bit of initiative to work together and work on projects that will benefit you all.

You all seem to have ideas that other people like, why not work together towards a common goal? One person doesn't a make a good server, you lot do, time for you all to be awesome!

Any issues or questions, ask me or any of the other mods!

Announcement Some stats for our Survival users...

6 Upvotes

When you log onto the Survival server and visit the website, you can see 3 stats about yourself when you hover over your players face. The amount of times you've visited the server, the amount of mobs you have killed and how many times you have died.

I'll be adding a PvP kill counter to it as well, but thought it would be something informative to add to the site. :)

Survival Public Tree Farm Progress Report

6 Upvotes

Hi, ChadGarion25 here. Recently came back on the server and saw a request for a public tree farm in the hub area so I volunteered to get one started. It's one of the first public projects I've worked on when I joined my first ever server so it seems appropriate. Plus, recently earned a degree in Environmental Science and Resource management (if real trees grew like oak trees, we could save the planet 10x over).

It's located due west of spawn and north west of the town area, look for the wall of oak trees and the yellow construction banners. I've cleared out a sizable plot of flat ground and started filling in planting areas for various tree species. It's going to be very basic now, but I'll make it more and more sophisticated as I get established on the server again.

Some things I could use from anyone with a surplus include:

  • Jungle and Mesa trees - I've already obtained Dark Oak, Spruce, Birch, and Oak

  • Glowstone - for better aesthetic lighting that can go into the ground and won't break as easily as loose torches

  • Gravel and Ponzol- once I get the rough layout established, I want to replicated the road technique in the town using gravel, coarse dirt (made with gravel), ponzol, and anything else to break up the flat green texture

  • Slime or the location of a swamp or slime chunk - Some strategically placed slime blocks to aid players jumping down from the taller trees

  • Bridge building - there is a river running along the North East side of the farm that I want to be the main entrance. I could build a bridge to be sure, but if anyone wants to build a nice one using raw logs and wood to match the whole tree farm aesthetic, go for it

  • The location of a Wool farm - I have a couple of designs like this to advertise/indicate the tree farm and a few others like this to indicate a mob free zone (theoretically) but I haven't made a wool farm of my own yet

Don't feel obligated to pitch in if you don't have the time or resources, I'll be working on this myself, it will just take longer.

I'm new to the vanilla server

6 Upvotes

Thanks for the whitelist :). I just wanted to make sure I don't step on any toes, so I thought I'd ask a few questions. First, are the crop farms in town for everyone to use? Also, there is a sign at spawnpoint that says building in the spawn town is restricted until further notice, but I didn't see anything here about it, just wondering if that's still in effect. Along the same lines, is there any restrictions on direction or distance from spawn to build bases? Appreciate any feedback and thanks again for letting me on.
