I agree with Eries, the challenge of making your own cannon is much more fun. It's more rewarding in the end, and allows for mistakes on the user's behalf.
Speaking of which, I had an idea. Use a combo lock to fire your TNT cannon, but if it's wrong, the room around you explodes. That would be pretty hilarious.

Please learn how to use google. My grandfather knows how to, I think you can too.
I love it. I think it should have a mod where it tells you where in the world you are (Ex: Iceland) I don't know if that is a real mod i was told it on a server i forget.
Edit: I want Soviet Russia, Afgan, Japan, or The great lakes. But only one. And Join my Faction i will create when the server is up.
I make up my age because i dont want a creep to find it out but since you really have to know im 17 yrs old for real i swear it
Sorry, like I said.. I do random checks on people when they ask to join this server. So when I see you say 17 here, then 13 somewhere else then 16 another place it makes it hard to trust you. Specially when you say your 13 but you are really 17. That just sounds a little fishy.
In the last 15+ years I have been playing online gaming, I have found more players who are younger masking their age to try and sneak in vs older players saying they are younger.
Also, I find it very creepy that a 17yr old would say they are 13.

hehe, I asked my server owner if he knew any plugins that did what you asked and he told me
"Hit F3"

You're 17 years old and you forget to capitalize your I's? :dry.gif: I don't need to see your face to tell you're most likely lying. Either that or you're just a creep yourself.

Good news, after talking through a few things with the other admins we decided to lift the white list once we go to a test phase.
So pretty much you can go out and do what ever you want and if you find something that allows you to do something you shouldn't, or cant do something you should.... Let us know and you may get a lil bonus when we go live.

Two more images uploaded.
In a constant effort to improve our ideas... We have moved a few things around the spawn.
There was a park at the middle point to make it prettier, yet when you spawned sometimes you would land on top of a tree or awning. This resulted in loosing 1/2-1 heart when you hopped down and I felt that was pretty shitty for players to deal with. That was all cleared out and the player owned shopping district / world bank area was moved to the southern landing area since most of you would be coming from the North, East, and West.
Since we liked the idea of a park that was located around the spawn, we move it to one of the large wedge pieces to help balance everything out aesthetically. Next up is the large arena which was added today. This is where we will offer our sanctioned arena battles. We also have added a plugin called Mob Arena. At any time a group of players can face off against waves of mobs which increase in difficulty each wave. The further you go, the more prizes you get. Since this is not currently linked with Iconomy (YET) we will fix the main prize as a certain block type which can be sold to one of our npc vendors for some nice cash.
Lastly if you look to the right you will see the last wedge being slowly constructed. This is currently our transportation hub where you can find the portals leading to various world locations as well as a mine cart system that links up each of the lower landing docks and sea port for the main spawn.
Next up is a screen of my personal area and the central headquarters for all Admins.
Anyone who is a fan of One Piece may recognize it as the Marine HQ with a slightly different look. To the left is an Airship Im currently working on, the middle is my Ocean craft which is based off of a hydroplane design you dont see to often in minecraft. It is armed with two forward and rear cannons with a range of roughly 75-150 blocks each. To the right is my main Flag ship. Not pictured, or atleast not visible is my personal sub.
If you do happen to see the airship flying over head, it most likely means Im on my way to bomb someones city into a large crater. Otherwise Ill be on a smaller air ship not pictured, or cruising around on the boat in the middle.
All of this is located in the northern seas to ensure I don't end up taking over any land that one of you may wish to claim.
As always, thoughts and ideas yada yada are always welcome and we look forward to opening the map up to "beta" testers very shortly. Estimate is 1-2 days to 1 week. This is mostly depending on rounding out some bugs and this being finals week for a few of our admins.
Yes, I know of that, but instead of adding another plugin... I went with opening up the spawn. This also allows players to all spawn in at the same time and not be bunched up on top of each other.
Also, I offer my help for testing the server.
As I stated 2 posts up, we are lifting our white list to allow everyone to test.
:Edit:
I really dont want to be an ass, but seriously guys. I have had multiple pms from folks saying they are 11-15 and upset they can't play this server.
I have stated multiple times now we are not currently enforcing an age limit. However if I do continue getting pms (its been alot.....) or people upset about the age limit due to not reading the thread, then I will enforce an age limit. It is also funny how each pm states the exact same sentence... "Yes I am ## But I am very mature for my age."
:begin rant:
To me, the "mature" thing to do is find another server after reading you are too young for said server. I mean seriously what would happen if you went into a gas station at 15 and tried to buy a case of beer saying "Yes I am 15 But I am very mature for my age."
:end rant:
Are you going to put up a video of an air battle?
Id love to see another airship go down burning and exploding :biggrin.gif: . Also can we build underground? Or no

ty ty, its mostly because I rarely sleep.
Atm Im spending my last few waking hours building a large dock under the spawn so people can park their ships here.
So in truth the biggest let down would be that people never used any of the spawn facilities because of how far it is located. It is roughly 5 minutes sail/flight from west of Africa, east of South America and 7-10 minutes from Europe / East Coast US.
In the long run we could tech offer ships for sale at the spawn if we get enough players to warrant it. So that would somewhat force players to come to the spawn to pick up their ships and then have to fly/sail them away.
Our current idea though is having it be the World Capital and offering every item in game via Admin shops and Nation owned shops. The benefit of this would be not having to worry about being killed while in the city and Nations wouldn't have to worry about their city be raided and loosing their store if placed at their city.
The other is the new arena. This should also force players to travel here to participate or watch the events. This goes for both PVP and PVE arena battles. We set up the area above the arena as an observation area so they could be watched.
Plus above all else, this allows you a place to show off your war machines. While parked at the city they are off limits to theft or vandalism. Anyone breaking this rule would find their nation in peril of being attacked by us Admins. After all, who wouldnt be pissed if someone came to your house and destroyed your friends car while it was parked in your drive way.

Just quoting this so that more people can see.

I think this is a very good idea. I always like having a busy spawn city. But most servers usually have trouble with this. We definitely need reasons to get the players to come to the spawn more often, especially this one, since its so good!
Uhmmm no whitelist application but just in case I posted this
Looks like a awesome server. Definatley amazing idea with the maps.
Ty ty!
Pretty much we are just waiting for a few plugins to be set up correctly and to finish the construction of the spawn Portal system. It seems most of our admin team has either finals or went on vacation leaving only me and the server owner to work on this. That is not a bad thing, just means a little more work for us. Then again, all of the pics you have seen posted so far was created by me and Vorlock anyway.
So to catch everyone up to speed.
Once we feel like we have everything finished... We will remove our white list and I will post up the ip. At that point everyone will be able to log in and start exploring meet other players.
If you agree with everything so far, you are welcome to do what ever you want with two exceptions.
1. Dont attack or otherwise screw with admins.
2. Do not leave the map boundaries. You will know when you see the edge of the world.
The server will only be open while Vorlock or myself are online. If we are not around the server will be down. There is no exception to this. We wish to be on while people are testing things out so we can see what is or is not working.
Lastly, there will be a reset once we go live. This means nothing will be carried over to the main game. Once we believe everything is working as intended, we will shut down the server and close this thread. I will post up a new thread in the correct section and begin taking applications. At this point the server will remain closed to the public until we receive enough players to have 5+ nations.
Just because you "tested" does not mean you will be accepted. ESPECIALLY if you pissed off or annoyed me or Vor while testing.
Speaking of which, I had an idea. Use a combo lock to fire your TNT cannon, but if it's wrong, the room around you explodes. That would be pretty hilarious.
Edit: I want Soviet Russia, Afgan, Japan, or The great lakes. But only one. And Join my Faction i will create when the server is up.

LoL Knew that, But i'll help if i'm needed.
