Minetest Server No. 521

[TheFlashyX]

Server 521 is a little project of mine to create a server that's mostly about building, but has some surivival components as well. So if you're just looking for a little survival experience, that's fine, too. One of my principles is to use the bare minimum of mods possible to create a maximum of gameplay, so all mods used are carefully chosen and reviewed.
All real members of the Server capable of at least basic skills of reading, understanding, communicating and problem solving.

The most important mods running on the Server:

areas (Adopted mostly without any changes)
viewtopic.php?id=7239

3D_Armor (Extensively adapted, has only cosmetic effect outside of the survival event)
viewtopic.php?id=4654

Hunger (Extensively adapted, disabled outside of the survival event)
viewtopic.php?id=6342

Mobs (Extensively adapted, only during survival events)
viewtopic.php?id=3063

Moreores (Extensively adapted, to give mining a tiny bit more personality)
viewtopic.php?f=11&t=549

A custom-tooled skin mod.

(Some of these mods have gotten large parts stripped away)


From wednesday to saturday the server is running in survival mode, which means there are mobs. On all other days, the server is just about peaceful building. Everything on this server is mined, crafted and built by hand, no worldedit is used.

The server can be found under the name "Minetest server No. 521" on the server list. (Not "Survival Server No. 521", which is a pure survival pvp side-server)

Alternatively, the server can be reached via the hostname fivetwoone.ddns.net , port 30000.

I've set this up to see if there would be demand for a Server like this, since I have not been able to find anything specifically like it.

Here are some images (unfortunately, a lot of the users who built this have left the server, so there is currently little activity):

That server looks very great!

But please add an ip and a port, maybe someone can't find the server in the Minetest server list....

[TheFlashyX]

Ok, done.

Hi Flashy, I played quite a while on your server and had much fun. Finally I found water and was able to grow wheat, etc. so I'm not starving anymore after some time. Unfortunately I sometimes can't connect or loose connection.

Do you plan to add more mods? My preferred ones would be shop, currency, mesecons :)

[azekill_DIABLO]

cooool

[Daedric]

Looks cool and peaceful. But I can't find it in the server list.
Can you send me the server address and port?

[MykieDoesStuff]

Trying out the server. Looks nice so far.

I'd like to play in this server. It looks cool.

[maxela]

Can't connect since yesterday. Will this server remain or is it just a short term thingy?

Ok, sorry that I took so long, I did not expect activity on the forums.

It may happen that either server is unavailable for some time. In the past, there were some major problems, but most of it should be acceptable by now. If there is a big problem, you can try to tell me.
Secondly, I try to keep the selection of mods as small as possible, and things like "shops" feel a but too 'industrial' to me. About "currency" I don't really know anything about.

Well, I mean I did update the opening post with some information:

Alternatively, the server can be reached via the hostname fivetwoone.ddns.net , port 30000.

Not to be confused with Survival Server No. 521, which is port 30001.

Uh, I couldn't actually find any evidence of "hacking" on either server, however there were some cases of people choosing passwords such as "1" or "l" or freely giving away their password because they were asked nicely, but in these specific cases I usually choose not to interfere beyond advising on password security, and I can't remember any case where DreamCrusher was involved.

I'd like to play in this server. It looks cool.

I appreciate that, but I feel like I should mention that activity has shifted a bit, for some reason people seem to prefer S521 instead. If you do want to register though, you can do so on the server or on the forums.

There have been no planned long-term shutdowns, only some technical difficulties. (I've noticed that the server sometimes tends to be a bit overloaded, though)

Thank you, but I think you are talking about S521.

TheFlashy see i loggin on minetes server no. 521 i'm now member in game name "jale" have new "port 1"

Hi Flashy,
you saw how DreamCrusher was griefing my home. You wrote "Obviously DreamCrusher abused protection blocks to grief" and you helped me to remove all that. Thanks for that.
But why don't you take any further consequences for DreamCrusher? He still has extra privileges, he still digs into protected houses, he still steals stuff from other players. I don't know if he is a hacker or not but he definitely is a troll.
What other evidences do you need before you take any consequences?
See this thread for experiences other players had with DreamCrusher: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=14639

[TheFlashyX]

Uh, sorry, but I think you haven't played on this server yet, and while DreamCrusher does have an account on this server, he has only played for a couple minutes in the last 3 months. However, I sent you an answer to your PM. Assuming it worked. I am not sure my messages get sent at all. If you did not receive a message, tell me about it.

[maxela]

Hi Flashy, you are right, I connect to the survival server on port 30001. There is another one on port 30000. Everything I wrote was referring to the server on port 30001.
