Look we tried our best 😞 I hardly know how to use WorldEdit brushes, I'm a voxel kid. Feel free to tidy them up!

Haha no worries ❤️

On it 😛

Neat! The Roofs need terraforming though. 😳

Holy ****, wtf is going on here. I'm not sure whether I want to care, nor whether I am supposed to care anymore.

Just one little correction: I never had the pex to paste anything in. It was my idea, which originally kinda came from Groo. I couldn't even upload schematics, I'd need (full? idk) access to server and its folder to put a schematic in. Most admins don't even have the perms. Voop pasted Vaelya in, Basket pasted Freeport in. Voop pasted Vaelya in after I sent him the file, since I offered Vaelya help with building their settlement since they were in desperate need of a builder.

Give these people LC to build their build. If you're afraid of LC being used to dupe stuff, just put them on the build world and then world edit it in. There's no reason to make them suffer like this.

Still the best solution in my opinion. No reason for enforcing ugly builds. **** landscars. For real. "Muah economy" is no reason for forcing people to do ugly as **** builds. Because you can't do nice builds with Vortex. You really can't.

Give them a road and an SS pillar. No reason not to give it to them.

They're getting that already, no worries. Angmarzku and me have been working on Talon's Grotto's road, sadly it takes a while. We're waiting for admin approval of rules in general right now - only issue: We don't have one. Grool stepped down and no Admin has been appointed yet...

Briefly explain the lore behind this construct or creature:

According to legend, the Kharajyr were created by the daemon Metztli who abducted children from lonely farmsteads. They were taken to a beautiful island hidden in mist, where she crossed them with ocelots with her magical powers. Due to this, they look like feline humanoids. As their City was destroyed by their angered goddess, they fled their home island. In their new home they encountered the descendants.

Young Kha are referred to as kitten, or cub as they reach the age of 10. After reaching the age of 16 they are considered adults, even though it is it unlikely for them to get married before 50. They have a variety of cultural games, such as the board game 'Game of Ur' and in general a unique culture with festive religious events such Yancuic Xihuitl.

There are 4 subraces:

Kha'Tigrasi are known for their great strength and ability to fight. They usually have orange hide with black stripes.

Kha'Cheetrah are known for their ability to run very fast. Their hide is mostly golden with brown dots on it.

Kha'Leparda often have medium dark yellow hide and were the priests of the Kharajyr in past times.

Kha'Pantera are usually black and are known for their cunning, often becoming thieves. Their skins sometimes turn dark grey-ish as they age.

If this construct or creature has some form of aesthetic choice, can you describe how they look? 

Born under a Waxing Gibbous 12 years ago, Ixltub is a 4'4 tall Kha'Pantera Cub with pitch black hide. He travels with the Va'teyatl caravan that recently took foot in Almaris, where he tries to make his deals with their customers - given they understand the cub.

Do you agree to keep Story writers updated on the status of your magic app?:

         Yes

Do you understand that if this creature's lore is undergoing an activity trial and that trial fails, you will no longer be able to play this creature and will be forced to either revert the character back to its normal form (if it was a transformative type) or stop playing the character entirely (if it is an entirely new creature)?:

         Yes

All this stuff about investing and watching the economy, I hate to remind you that most people come here to take a break from irl or just to have fun, nobody wants to have to keep a constant eye on the economy nor do most even want to understand how economies work. Do we all now need to get economic degrees to successfully play this server now?

No, but you don't need to. Economy Team watches the economy... ._.

As I've stated multiple times, there's a reason why a game company will hire and consult with actual economists in order to manage their game economy properly.

 

Your ideas are great on paper but there's no way to pull it off without having more than half the server pissed against you because you made a decision. Nobody has time like some of you to dedicate 15-20 hours of their time in order to pay their taxes nor to grind the resources they want while having a family and a job.

 

People mostly want an escape from reality, they don't want to come here and have to grind in order to pay taxes, it always has been a problem and receiving minas from voting was fine, but this, nah won't do it gents.

 

Knowing the ego of some of the members in the economy team, it could be months before there's a significant change, but that's just LOTC.

"Economy team plans to meet weekly and go over the data of what's happening in regards to mina, vortex, and the health of the economy. If we see changes are needed we will add more mina into circulation, buff or de-buff vortex nodes, and work with the techs on quality of life improvements. Please keep in mind we are working towards a system of mina exchanging of hands and circulating rather than sitting banks not being used. "

To translate this ultra long paragraph: Stuff will be adjusted. No crazy grinding to supply your nation will be needed.

I feel like this is punishing those that have to take a hiatus or are gone for several days and can't maintain thier voting. Not to mention those with schooling and irl jobs to focus on. More chore than enjoyment. 

If you have any other ideas how to prevent money losing worth by mass inflation through endless money influx with barely any sinks, feel free to tell the economy team or me, I can give them to the team. 🙂

the amount you get is much to small for a nation to properly maintain anything, say your nation has fifty ACTIVE weekly players, thats a big ******* ask in the first place, then you need to get them to vote and pay taxes, the nation either has the option to tax a smaller amount and not make nearly enough to cover plot costs and the like, or tax citizens out the ass leaving actual trade and commerce screwed or making them barter, which doesnt pay the bills, not only that but you are now forcing groups that hadnt placed value in gathering alot of mina like high elves, halflings etc to try to actively maintain and gather mina now, this is a real bad take 

"Economy team plans to meet weekly and go over the data of what's happening in regards to mina, vortex, and the health of the economy. If we see changes are needed we will add more mina into circulation, buff or de-buff vortex nodes, and work with the techs on quality of life improvements.

Nethertheless, a nation like Oren that needs 1200 Mina needs 10 active players to supply itself. (3x6x7x10=1260)

Since 3% means you have 50% of your money left after 5.19 months if there is no input, so I'm really not too worried. Especially because of the 500 Mina cap. When Mina are 10x more worth you'd basically have 5000 Arcas-Minas for free...

Looks great! 

 

Please ensure there's roads leading in every direction so that some nations don't get the short stick in terms of walking distance across roads.

Ohhh it's even better then that 😆

Y'all crying without even having seen anything about the plugin. Why not just wait and check it out?

8.0: Settlements 2

Hello everyone!  I’m Laeonathan, the new Settlement/Nation Manager of the World Team. It’s been a while since our last post but we can finally give you some updates on 8.0 settlements and nations.

The pre-build phase is now over with all builds finished. They are currently being placed into the new map. As soon as that’s done we’ll jump to setting up the paths and roads connecting them. We’d like to thank all the  talented builders from the many nations who put effort into their builds. 

Additional to those settlements who meet the activity requirements, we have accepted the following applications:

Yamakura (Settlement)

Freeport (Settlement) – Dyl#5096

Va'teyatl (Lair) – chaos#7283

They will be able to start building up their settlement as soon as the map starts. There have been twenty applications, but we only accepted these 3 named above and you’re right to wonder why. The main reason groups we passed over is because many of these ideas would be much better served going to players themselves for land instead of relying on the staff for land. We believe it’s better for the server if land is given out by kings, instead of staff. This why we want to encourage everyone who didn’t get a response from us to figure something out with a nation. We know that not everyone will succeed with it. But if we’d be accepting all of the applications, we’d end up with more independent polities then we have average players online.

Here are the 8.0 Nations and their respective leaders:

Aegrothond - wanderous#8112

Druids - Luci#2666

Eternal Uzg - Benjamin Walker#0877

Haelun’or - Pastry#0256

Haense - Bub#9995

Norland - DAENGIE#9198

Oren - dream#9012

Sutica - mika1278#0993

Urguan - Seo#0650

When messaging them with your idea for a settlement, always keep in mind they have an idea for their nation as themselves and that you will have to find a compromise together with them – given they want any vassals.

Nevertheless, lair applications will be opening again as soon as the map releases. If you have a very creative idea, feel free to apply after the release! There’ll be another post regarding the rules for nations/settlements/lairs in 8.0 coming up before launch. But one thing about activity in the first few months can be said already: We will track it, but there won’t be any consequences until the grace period is over so people can get their feet underneath them.

In case you have any questions, ask them! If you don’t want to do that over the forums feel free to message me on discord! (Laeonathan#3614)

Wow people getting hyped. Junar didn’t even show the best biomes yet. :3 – Shotout to Florensics, who world painted most of the map and holy ****, it’s amazing!
