So many of you guys have been waiting a long time for this! Next week (September 2nd @ 7 P.M. EST), we will be relaunching the server with the Discworld map created by Moonti. With this will come several different changes to how we do somethings. The biggest is that the terrain in the map is supremely AWESOME! We want to try to keep it that way, meaning please try not to tear out half a mountain and just leave it (I know i'm guilty of this also). Also the trees on this map are custom trees, so when you cut them down the leaves do not despawn. So if you cut down a tree please cut it all the way down. When you replant a tree, everything will work like usual. Now on to some fun stuff, the map is configured very differently from a normal Vanilla minecraft world, so we had to come up with some work arounds to make the experience different but still feel relatively close to what we are used to. So alot of the mobs that use structures to spawn, are spawned based off of spawners that the map creator has placed. To make up for this, players with silk touch on their pickaxe will now be able to pick up those spawners. Now the spawners are sitting on command blocks that players shouldn't be able to pick up, please do not mess with these blocks, if you do, it will be an automatic ban. The plan is hopefully to build and large afkable area to farm from these spawners so that 1 person can afk most of everything. To go with the ability of picking up the spawners we are letting players purchase spawners for themselves and decorative blocks that can not be found in game with the use of a new currency (These spawners are to be used for drops only and not for XP). The new currency will be Kamicraft Heads! You can earn these heads doing things for the community, like building farms, or roads, participating in the Ender Dragon fight or UHC events. Even just upvoting the server on recruitment websites will earn you a Kamicraft Head. The exact number of pay-outs and costs of item is still being worked out, but we hope this gives you guys a little extra that you cant get on other servers. I know this has been a really long post to read through, so thank you guys for doing so. Later this week I will try to post a video explaining this in more detail for everyone, but until then, I can't wait to see you guys next week!!!
