Niceeeeeee but does it fix the orb bug.

Godspeed you raving frog. Thanks for your time as admin, you did a good job

Already installed SimpleGod. Everyone has godmode. End of story. I'm not touching the server again until there's an actual patch.

aaaaand PVP is off again because the first huge lagspike happened right after someone kill someone else.

awesomeo_5000 linked me to this little program: http://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/kc1d4/xp_orbs_broke_your_map_made_a_quick_tool_to_fix_it/ So I downloaded the map backup from the server, let the program remove all the orbs, and loaded the map back up. Also applied the jj.class thing in the minecraft_server.jar but we'll see if it works. PVP is back on.

The project up till now might've claimed around 50 actually productive hours I think (and a lot more hours of procrastination).

We've reached a magical point: my TODO list for the first release is empty (however the LATER category has 38 entries ). Ragnarok Conflict is getting a server. Tomorrow. The following maps and gametypes will be playable: de_port - Supply Hunt cs_assault - Crash Site cs_office - VIP cs_italy - VIP ts_flood - Ghost Artifact ttt_vessel - Crash Site ts_backdraft - Ghost Artifact cs_parkhouse - VIP

That's the new plugin I installed. It buffers item drops (currently max 40 active items per chunk), meaning the rest won't disappear, but they won't spawn until the number of items drops below the limit.

Installed another plugin that does some other weird shit (buffers items spawned per chunk). Maybe it'll make a difference.

Ugh, even with PvP disabled the server is unplayable most of the time.

Congratulations, you're one year closer to death!

Yeah, I noticed that issue first hand when I killed Mookey. So now we're a PVP-less Factions Wars server until the issue is fixed. The alternative would be being offline. Just go work on your base or something.

Yeah no need for this. Because 1) I decide when we switch 2) We've only been playing for a day it wouldn't be that terrible 3) Server's sorta stable again so our current map is saved for now

Alright, just updated to a new bukkit dev release, seems we no longer crash within the minute. However the lag is quite persistent still so we'll have to see how it develops.

As I said, we "might", first I'm going to try everything I can to restore this world. But if I can't, we should at least try to see if a new world doesn't crash.

We might just start a new map this afternoon. I have a feeling our previous world is beyond saving right now. Which sucks.

buuuuuuuttttt it's highly unstable. Fuck. Server keeps freaking out. EDIT: I'm done for now. Server stays offline till later this afternoon after which I'll see if any fixes have been posted.

YESSSSSSSSS Installed both orb removal plugins from that thread and our server came back to life instantly

Solution: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/620720-18-pre-2smp-xp-orb-disable-stop-the-lag-monster/ Tried, doesn't work. Probably a better solution: http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/req-disable-the-xp-orb-lagfest-plz.36678/#post-675255 Trying. Removes them every 30 seconds? Well the current server time goes 1 second every 20 real-life seconds so that'd mean we'd have to wait 10 minutes

Too much shittyness going on at the moment. Can't disable mob spawning for some reason. And with mobs around, we'd get the same issue with the contest map as the survival map. Nothing is fucking working today.

Server is barely playable, probably because of the exp orbs. Even after restarting we're over 100% CPU. I think we'll have to wait for a patch.

Fixed the link on minecraft.nl. Also the current server lag and shitty performance is probably caused by the new (pointless) experience orbs. It's listed as a major performance bug on the Minecraft wiki so I hope to see a fix soon. The Factions territory on the live map DOES update apparently, but every 30 minutes (when Factions stores its data to disk).

I update the plugins whenever the fuck I want

Updated the dynmap plugin. Quite a few nice improvements. There's Faction territory support now (although it doesn't seem to be continuously updating)! Just enable it in the top left menu on map.minecraft.nl. Landmarks component broke though, will probably be replaced later.
