elmuerte Posted October 31, 2010 (edited) I've registered a shorter domain to join the server: idlemc.com Edited October 31, 2010 by elmuerte Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tabacco Posted October 31, 2010 FYI, there appears to be a bug in the new server version that causes it to only write the game state to disk until it runs out of free memory. So, because we lost about 12 hours worth of progress in a server restart, enjoy the new new Idle Thumbs world. Now with autosave plugin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrHoatzin Posted October 31, 2010 WTF, a six letter domain that hasn't been scooped up, and a really cool one to boot?! IdleMC! Holy cow! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thl Posted November 1, 2010 The update is installed, but Hey0 isn't working with it yet, so many commands won't be available until it is. just curious since i'm thinking about running a small private server for my co-workers. is hmod the only thing you use as far as server mod/admin is concerned?

tabacco Posted November 1, 2010 just curious since i'm thinking about running a small private server for my co-workers. is hmod the only thing you use as far as server mod/admin is concerned? We have Hey0, and then as plugins within it, BucketFix, GriefAlert, and SaveReloadPlugin SaveReloadPlugin, by the way, appears to be absolutely essential. Also, be aware that the server process requires a pretty heavy amount of memory, a minimum of 1GB. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elmuerte Posted November 1, 2010 tabacco, do you have a DNS server? or a service that allows you to manage arbitrary domainnames? If so then I could point the name servers of idlemc.com to those. Because a CNAME on domainname is really out of the question. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because a CNAME on domainname is really out of the question. I do! You can use ns1.dthosting.org and ns2.dthosting.org - I'll add the zones now. Also, in the interests of simplicity, I've made all the existing domains CNAMEs to idlemc.com. By the way, not that it matters, but minecraft.idlethumbs.net should now work, for those who kept mistyping it that way Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Amobius Posted November 1, 2010 Just curious, is there anyway to reset the server to a specific time. There was a little mishap with flint that lead to the destruction of a huge structure i had going. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tabacco Posted November 1, 2010 Just curious, is there anyway to reset the server to a specific time. There was a little mishap with flint that lead to the destruction of a huge structure i had going. I don't have rolling backups, sorry. That's on my to-do list at some point, because I'd like to be able to provide downloads of (hourly?) snapshots for the curious.

a purple future Posted November 2, 2010 i don't know how you guys feel about it, but i'd be interested in unlocking the /tp command. it wouldn't be as cheap as /setwarp, and for example, when amobius' place burned down, it could have been nice to /tp over to him to help put it out. just a suggestion. obviously if this ever actually becomes a functioning survival server, we'd turn it off.

Jake Posted November 2, 2010 Move the glass water thing at spawn, it blocked my sign which I have removed and also Jake's. put it closer to the building and don't use glass. Sorry for fronting on your sign with a 3x version. I felt the new server needed something more grandiose (and more annoying to attempt to vandalize or demolish*). * not that that will stop people.
