[Server] Xanadu

[firefox]

Howdy Xanadians!

We're currently building Beggar's Bay, area for new players to build their first home. (snip)

Hmm, I thought new players were not allowed to join the Xanadu server. Has that limitation been lifted? O_o

there's only one way to find it out ;)

Public telepad to Beggar's Bay - Starter Area is now active.
Find green circle telepad at spawn :)

Attached is a map screenshot of the area. :D

awesome server tenplus1! my kids and i just started playing today. all the difference biomes are very cool! i have one question.. it seems i can only have maximum 3 players created from my IP address? I have 3 kids and myself is four players. is there a way to increase that? Or is there a way to just rename my player so i can give to one of my kids? Thanks!

yes, it is possible. send a PM to TenPlus1 and tell him that you are 4 different players :)

the 3 accounts per IP was made as limitation for banned players - if an account gets banned, the player has 2 more chances before being excluded from the server. also each player is only allowed to use 1 account.

i will do the firefox thankyou!

Isn't that a limitation with MT itself?
At least, I remember it like so

[firefox]

a new shop has opened in Emporium:



it's the "Lost and Forgotten" Shop
you can pay only with gold ingots, but prices are fair, just like my old shop in Sol Sanctum =(^.^)=

since i flooded the chat with building advice today, i thought i just share this link here
so i don't need to write so much again :P

That link seems to point to diffrent video that has nothing to do with MT?

and How to NOT build :P
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HUzggMjVze8

A very good video. It ought to be watched by more new players. Many of those factors that make new player homes often horrible are explained there. Can't we have a link to that video in a more prominent place, perhaps in its own thread?

that Grian guy also has more tutorials specifically for roofs, staircases, interior, gardens and blending with biomes ;)

Seems he also has a nice video that shows what happens when excited young players report about having built a "great house" - and you follow them from spawn for a long time to see just - what is shown as a bad example in that video :-) I felt that way quite often.

Not all of the factors that are relevant for MC builds can be transfered one to one to MT builds. The available blocks/textures and in particular the lighting system (painting with light through slabs but absence of shadows) are diffrent. The vast majority of points mentionned in the videos do apply to both games.

Is there a new iska mod on the Xanadu server? I was defending some noobs near the tree areas by spawn and a player was killing other players and when I went to attack him (or her) from doing that, each hit would turn me around and I would get a message "This area owned by iska" ....Have I missed this mod? Or was this a player using a hacked client possibly? No moderators were on so I was just wondering.

[iska]

If you are in the area where you're supposed to chop the trunks it's unprotected and pvp is possible, if you're in the edge of it you probably get these messages.

[mystik]

Just to be clear .....

iska is a player who is a moderator. Not a code modification applied to the server. The message "owned by iska" is just because the player being struck was in an area covered by a protection block owned by iska.

By necessity, the public tree farms cannot be protected. This is a survival PvP server, so players *can* attack other players, but moderators tend to view PvP in the communal areas near spawn as greifing, and repeated incidents can get an account limited.

Players can stand in the protected areas, and strike players in the unprotected area, making it all too easy to cause problems in the public farms.

I've been enjoying the new Emporium, nice work!
Do the new style bushes actually spawn anywhere naturally or is anyone selling them?
I want some.

they are in the code of the newest minetest together with coral blocks, but i haven't seen them on the map yet.
i guess the Goblin King will soon make a hidden shop where we can buy it with Tin Ingots =(^.^)=

[xerox123]

So wait, let me get this clear. PVP IS allowed, just not around the spawn area?

yes, anywhere in the open world you can fight whoever you want. protected areas are safe and in the wild nature you can carry a protection block with you for emergency defense.

but the Rule Board says "no noob killing" so you will get big rouble if you attack players in public farms or the entrance of the public mines or un-armored players walking around.
and it's always nice to ask for PvP first, we even have arenas for that =(^.^)=

but if someone break into your house and doesn't leave or tries to kill your animals, feel free to kill them :P

hi

[RealGoldenHart]

Hi guys, Golden Hart here. Or should I clarify, the real Golden Hart.
So I understand the servers were reset and everything, but my user is still active. Just to see if I could log in, I typed in username and password, (the same password I use for all my games), it said wrong password. Anyways, I don't know if my account was hacked, and I am not begging to be allowed in. I am simply warning people in case someone is playing under my username. Also when will users be allowed back in? Just so I know, it's been a while.

Hi Iska, I was wondering if you could give me some land at the Emporium, because I plan to build a store; Waiting for a positive response, I say goodbye, not without wishing you a Merry Christmas

[Miguu]

Hello again, I want to make an apartment project (or hotel) in the area of the old Emporium; I saw a field that says if you are looking to build something, ask one of you three ... and then, I wanted to know if it might be possible to help me by giving me this ground to be able to carry out this my project.

Best regards: Miguu

[Miguu]

PD: The land that it mentions is near the Castle Transylvania, the old home of IronFish

I don't have the home privilege on this server I'm not sure why.it might be because I'm penguins sister because he got limited but can a server admin please tell me exactly why.thanks!

As far as I'm aware limits only affect a certain username rather than the players IP (which would be a ban?). Maybe TenPlus1 could be so kind to tell us :)

[TenPlus1]

Any account that has been /limited will have all privs revoked and that account cannot log back into server anymore, so I'll check your account and see what privs you do have and what you may be missing ( what is your name on server ? ).
