    **** off with your Farmville bullshit.

     

    This is possibly the worst change you could have implemented. When people are going back to school, you cannot force them to get online. "Crafting energy" adds absolutely nothing of value and forces people to idle on the server more, or pay you money. Is the server bleeding funds so bad that you lot really have to resort to iOS app developer tactics, or is this another untransparent cash grab at our community's expense?

     

    I never thought I'd have to say this, but pack your bags, take your plugins, and leave. This community has expressed loudly and clearly for the past year that they do not want you. You must have balls of wrought iron to think it's going to tolerate this move.

     

    ???

     

    We are removing waiting for items to craft - you get them right away - add that with the fast recharge rate and the relatively low consumption - it's really easy to craft things. It allows people to idle less, get what they want, and worry less about grinding.

     

    We won't be selling "energy refills" stop your tin-foiling.

  2. Tentative changes to the plugin are being discussed here:

    Hey Lord of the Craft!

     

    Today I am happy to announce that we have removed all craft timers. We will be trying out a new system:

    Every persona has 1000 energy. While every craft is completed instantly, each action consumes energy -- with higher skilled personas using less energy on their respective crafts (half energy use at Aengullic). Once energy is used it will begin to recharge at 2 energy per minute. If your energy is fully deleted, after 8 hours and 20 minutes it will be fully regenerated. Humans will regenerate energy 15% faster. There are some other ways to regenerate energy which you may discover! Note: Each persona has its own energy value. When you are offline, it will regenerate, but only on your current persona! Repair timers have also been removed, now using energy instead!

     

    How do you know your energy? Three ways!

     

    Whenever you open a crafting menu this meter will appear at the top of the inventory.

    Through the /me Nexus-Craft settings, you can toggle it to be a numeric display instead of graphic - or completely disabled.

    Further, when you are interacting with crafting stations - a boss bar will appear at the top of your screen indicating your energy level. This can also be toggled through the /me menu to appear always, never, or only when crafting, which is the default.

    Finally, you can type /energy to give you a readout.

     

    Sorry for the secrecy behind this update - but we wanted to assure nobody had an unfair advantage as these changes greatly affect the way our game is enjoyed.

     

    We hope you like the changes! Let us know what you think.

     

    With Love,

  3. Hello Lord of the Craft,

     

    The Game Development Team will be performing scheduled maintenance tonight at 10:00 PM EST (4.5 hours from when this is posted) on the main server (mc.lotc.co). Estimated downtime is 1-2 hours, and any changes will be delivered through Lord of the Craft's Twitter (https://twitter.com/LordOfTheCraft).

     

    Due to the sensitive nature of this update, a post detailing the changes will go up after we are complete.

     

    We apologize for any inconveniences this may cause.

     

    Thanks,

    Kowaman | Game Development Team Director

    Ah, well I'll look at that after I'm done testing the PvP thing, otherwise I tried to place a sign on a bookshelf the other day and it wouldn't let me, ;~ ;

     

    You just lock the bookshelf directly. If you want to put a sign on it to label it, shift-place the block.

  5. Hey all, we added some fixes you've been asking for.

    Let me know in the comments down below what bugs you'd like to see fixed next. There's a lot of them so if we can prioritize some that the community wants we will.

     

    No, "Nexus Crafting" is not a bug... or is it?

     

    Rep will be fixed soon.

     

  6. I code a lot of behind the scenes, and moderation plugins that GMs have requested - nothing most of the community really interacts with. I manage the development team, and I help out other staff affairs when asked. I'm not in the wrong for helping out in other areas of the server. I do my job here, but I like to have fun and do other things, though I don't go forcing my way into them.
