[Server] VanessaE's Survival Server [git/dev]

[webdesigner97]

For some reason my regular wooden Locked chests are NOT opening for me. Either at Central or at my shop north of Outpost One. Exotic chest like Mithrl and locked refrigs work fine. Annoying since I know I have stored some dirt in one but I can't even pull up contents. (I wanted to start an underground garden at Outpost Zero. I cleaned up all the loose chests left to store excess from the excavation.)

I can confirm this. It only affects existing default locked chests.

I can confirm this. It only affects existing default locked chests.

It was a side-effect of speeding up chest access. A way around that problem is to avoid normal locked chests and use i.e. the ones from technic. Seems VanessaE has fixed the bug in the meantime anyway :-)

[VanessaE]

Yeah, I fixed the bug by reverting my original attempt which caused it (no one ever said I knew what I was doing :-P ). I'll fix it the right way later.

[rubberduck]

can you please install this skin for me (on both servers, surv and crea)



i made it by myself out of the default skin, jordachs skin (found in your minetest images folder on your site), after that i edited it a bit

[VanessaE]

Sure thing. Installed the skin, it'll become available after the next restart tomorrow morning.

Quarry's!!!

I've started a quarry mining area, if anyone wants to run a quarry, still a WIP, and currently has 300K+ HV power available down to -400. I'm still going deeper! I you want to utilise it, please do, but please try follow format at level -100. And Read sign board and update any necessary info (Found at travelnet point -100).
Currently only a ladder going downwards, will be adding in a lift/travelnet system soon.

You will need the following:-

Your own Quarry, HV Cable, tubing, chest etc. (Please mark your 4 quarry point zone with a sign so we know whose it is.

It can accessed via my TravelNet at Exchange using "Quarry Mines".

Interact please? (user: dm42)

[VanessaE]

Interact granted.

[bitsflashing]

Interact please! :D

[VanessaE]

Interact granted....by shadowzone :P

[rubberduck]

i just opened my shop here on this server, location is at -188, 20, -478, (close to the center area, very close to the "cheapie-mart")
it contains ca. 50 items at the moment and it will grow in future

i sell granite, white wool, sandstonebrick, marblebrick, steel support, carbone steel ingots, flowers and many more items.

[avocamentum]

Looks like fun, can't wait to get past the lobby. ;-)

May I have Interact, please? thanks

[VanessaE]

Interact granted.

[Cryterion]

Rubberduck, hope you got lots of white flowers available, will check in later on.

[Gael de Sailly]

Could I have interact, please ?

[rubberduck]

i have white flowers there and i will add more, but i also need a lot of by myself, because i want to build a giant minetest-logo (size 124x124), where i need a lot of these too.

For the background i use brick blocks colered in white (with the color machine), you can also use clay to get white dyes using the color machine, and one clay block gives you 4x of the dyes of one flower, because a clay block gives you 4 clay lumps and each lump 4 dyes.

my shop is very new for the moment and some shops are only filled with a few blocks, after time i will fill up a lot of shops and i will add a second layer with more shops, when my second layer is ready, i will sort the shops a bit more (one section for ores, one for wood, ...)

[VanessaE]

Interact granted.

wow, spawn area is surely changing. Not much left of all the work put into the waterfall with bridge, raised pond and stream. Oh well, should have protected it as park, such is the path of progress :-D.

I do hope though that that new sign will not totally block out the views of my castle. I guess my little world on that plateau near spawn is slowly getting out of theme of the new bustling spawn area. Sometimes I am really amazed how city develpment on mt servers does mirror some aspects of development in real life. I like it though how my fundaments for the community center and the basic granit arcades at the lakeside or Dan Duncombe's old shop at spawn have been adopted to new use. Development can be fascinating.

[rubberduck]

i played on your server and had an error, minetest got totally slow and it shows me an error. after re-login it worked for a few seconds and then this error occored again, but i don't know why.

my position was at 6,2 11,5 -1076,2 (i cut it of)

[VanessaE]

This isn't a problem with my server, rather it's a glitch in the client. I don't know the cause but I've seen others post similar errors on other servers. When it happens, press F2 to hide the chat until the messages go away (a minute or two). Be sure you turn the chat back on. Hiding the chat temporarily will fix the FPS sagging.

[rubberduck]

in this area where this happened, there are bee hives and acorns flying in the air, i don't know why.

i don't think that this is the cause for this, but you never know.

do you see them flying there too? and is it possible to remove them with world edit without damaging the map?

[Cryterion]

Hi. I often get it happening there. Happens to be at my factory. Seems to only happen if i have both the normal factory running and all my centrifuges. As to the flying acorns. Microchip will have to replant the acorn tree in his area. Had cut the leaves with a chainsaw when i was building. But as Vanessa says, its more a client engine glitch.

[VanessaE]

The acorns is something else I'll have to look into. That's not a client glitch, it's probably a bug in moretrees. Beehives not falling is also a bug but I don't know where exactly - not the engine, I don't think.

[rubberduck]

i added a donation mailbox for my oversized minetest logo (size = 124 x 124 blocks) i want to build, if you want to help, please donate some clay stacks or flowers (need OVER 600 CLAYSTACKS) . you can find the mailbox when you go to my shop, there is a travelnet-box that leads directly to this mailbox.

[Cryterion]

Hi

For some reason I have a small problem with Item Filters.

When using a filter on a gold chest to filter out buckets of lava to a deployer, each pulse send 3 lava buckets out, yet when taking the empty and excess lava buckets out the deployer, they are sent 1 by 1 as should be the case. Not sure if anyone else has experienced this?

Not a major problem, just seems odd about the 3 being sent at the same time!

The quarry area is great, thanks!

Any objection to building a small travelnet "lobby" close to the elevator at -100?

[Cryterion]

No objection at all.

Edit, there's usable MV equipment on level -2000, that's why HV cable runs down to atm.

[Dragonop]

Can i have Interact? IGN: Dragonop

[VanessaE]

Interact granted

[ThatGraemeGuy]

Anyone know if there's some protocol to follow to get connected to the HV grid? I'm going to build a nuclear reactor soon and I figure contributing to the grid makes sense as I'm not going to use close to 100kEU on my own. My lair is at {X=-118, Z=-100} and there is access to the HV grid from the road near me at {X=-266, Z=-41}. Can I simply tunnel there and connect? I haven't looked into what protections may be in place along the way.
