There is only one plugin on the server that requires only 50% of the players to be in bed to sleep in order to pass the night, rather than all players. Otherwise it is purely vanilla.

I just double checked and it is working fine for me, I also see several people on the server playing, so it seems to be going okay for them as well. Are you on the vanilla 1.8.4 client? Are you sure you entered the host? Here's my config:

The goal of this server is to be as vanilla as possible, with only some small logistical and administrative mods, so there will be no additional commands or mods in this iteration.

That being said, the server is forge-based, so inputs are welcome for that platform for future iterations.

I'm imagining a 4-6 month refresh cycle, but that will be dependent on usage and feedback.

Pavement

2015-05-26 16:23:12

I think all that we need is /spawn.

Tpa and home tp would make it too easy to return with resources on a trip mining for example. At least if you went mining/hunting then did /spawn you still have to walk back to your base. :)

Guys, I know this is a botting forum, but please don't hack in a game where we're all just playing together. It ruins the experience for everyone. So I guess "No Rules" actually means "No Rules within the legitimate confines of the game". If you hack you will be banned. That said, feel free to write your own color bots.

Well, I know my shit when it comes to modded servers. Rather it be Optimization or compatibility issues, I've been there and done that. I used to (mostly) run a 50-100 Daily player heavily modded server/Technic Pack (BusinessElite, now BusinessElite-Plus) with minimal disabled/blocked machines, until I left due to the owner forcing stupid decisions. I haven't looked at Bukkit/Cauldron in awhile, when I left, the server scene was looking very grim due to the whole EULA nonsense. Last MC Modded version I messed with was 1.7.10, but even then we were just exploring it and mainly waiting for mods to switch over.

Just lemme know if you need help, I know how cringy it sounds, I've spent 8 or so months working on modded servers, it's a real pain in the ass when it comes to dealing with issues, but it always pays off when you see what kind of things people come up with.

Should add some way of protecting our land, sad to see griefing and whatnot. May i suggest possiblely 'residence' or 'towny'! Those work well. As well should add some kind of anti-cheat plugins, to stop cheaters if there are any.

So far it's been peaceful and I don't think there has been any griefing even though quite a few have been playing. Although mayor likes to leave my doors open for creepers to get in :P a nice bunch of people we got playing so far.

There's no horizon for mods yet, none of the mod servers are stable enough on 1.8 yet, and vanilla patch mods are difficult to maintain without dedicated support which we don't have time for.

That said, there's also a FTB Infinity 1.5.1 server now up on nala.villavu.com:12122 whitelist only, contact me to get added, better chances if you've been a "good resident" of the vanilla server, or BenLand100 or Wizzup or Olly or I know you from previous interaction and can vouch.

Last I heard 1.7.10 was a good area for modding, and Technic is a pretty solid platform for ease of use and managing the modpack. At least it was when I used it, they've released their Technic 2.0 or whatever, but it looks like Solder works the exact same, which is used for managing the modpack itself.

If you're looking into getting mods up and running, i'd highly suggest putting together a modpack and using Technic, as you'd have control over pretty much everything, you can gut out anything you don't need or causes issues.

+1 for 1.7.10 (and 1.7.X in general, 99% of 1.7.10 mods are backwards-compatible with 1.7.2).

I have experience with Technic, FTB/Forge, and Bukkit/Spigot. There are many philosophical issues with Technic which puts them out of the picture entirely at the moment. Forge is my favorite platform and community, so that's the likely target for the foreseeable future.

As you can see in the post you're replying to, we already have mods up and running. We're using the Infinity modpack using the FeedTheBeast/Forge platform. The reason this isn't a custom modpack (yet), is because that requires a lot of time and energy to plan and maintain with patches and updates to the constituent mods. The modded server is running 1.7.10, and is also already running some custom mods that I've written.

The only thing Technic really has going for it is the ease of use on both sides of the players and modpack managers, when I was helping run BusinessElite we tried moving over to FTB and it was major pain in the ass compared to Technic. There was only one guide for creating a custom FTB Modpack, and we ended up just giving on it due how much time it took just to put out an update. Seemed FTB only really cared for their own official modpacks. Yeah, Forges community is pretty nice. Have you had any experience with Cauldron? It's Forge+Spigot for Servers (Combines the Plugin Support from Bukkit, and Forge), the Cauldron community is also pretty friendly. Helped out the Developer multiple times with server issues we'd always run across. But I agree, Technic has it's issues which I can't really blame you for disliking, but one thing I did end up liking was it's ease of distribution and use.

If you haven't messed with Technic's Solder, it makes things kinda simple. It allows you to push out very small updates when needed and organize things. I know Technic's Devs and Admins are a pain, trust me BusinessElite lost everything due to a minor issue that could've easily been reverted by the Technic Team, but they chose just to ignore us.

Also, from experience most of the issues you're going to run across are server sided. Since 1.7 handles ID's you don't have to worry about ID conflicts anymore. Compatibility is the only thing that you'll end up having to deal with, which can easily be handled server-sided by banning/disabling the block entirely. Optimization will also end up being an issue, but that can easily be dubugged with Opis, and handled with Spigot.

This would require an additional authentication layer to be implemented within the game and synchronized with the existing whitelisting mechanism to prevent abuse and ban evasion. The lack of mod support for 1.8 makes this untenable in the foreseeable future, unfortunately.
