when the map is reset can we get the ability to lock ower chest agen pleas?

We could do that. Seeing how the next world is survival only it's a necessity.

Just read on reddit that today's snapshot introduces stained glass. Nice move - this brings a whole lot of new building options. Cathedral with stained glass windows as community project, anyone?

Any idea when 1.7 will be out?

Suggestion for a reset roadmap:

As soon as the final pre-release of 1.7 - usually identical with the release - is out, the current world is taken offline. If there's a demand we can figure out where to store the map backup for download.

A new server is launched with the pre-release, where selected ops will build a new spawn in creative, make sure that all necessary plugins and server configs are set up.

Upon release day the server is switched to survival and the whitelisting process begins again. I'll make sure to whitelist known players right from the start.

Any alternative suggestions? Comments?

This sounds good to me.

Perhaps have a ruleset for the spawn for the ops to build to. I think it was discussed before.

As it is going to be true survival the spawn shouldn't be this massive city to begin with.

Perhaps a few houses, more of a protected area, chest/s with a getting started kit... similar to the bonus chest in single player.

Then let users go off and build their own thing. Things like food dispensers, farms, etc will need to be built by users in survival.

Hopefully this will encourage users to build the spawn and bigger projects as a community.

 

Other things i liked the sound of was enabling PvP. I think that would be interesting but i also think we'd need more security for chests and home bases.

 

I liked Crisp's idea in the poll thread. A plane crash in the jungle and that is it. You spawn there and you have to survive. It would be like Lost.

rather than chests you can use an addin or whatnot just to be nice to folks and when you create a character for the first time on the server you are given a set of wooden tools or something, just to get started and be nice, and at the spawn we can have a wheat farm or something so that people dont starve at first.

Works for me. Keep the spawn simple, but safe. Maybe have a farm with a variety of crops etc, and a crafting area, and a couple of basic shelters. Plus a Nether portal. ;) In fact you could almost base it off a naturally spawning village.

 

I have a lot of spare time on my hands right now so I'd like to volunteer to help out with the initial build.

Perhaps a small compass with the spawn point in its centre, a small farm providing some food for the start, and free space for community builds. Surrounded by a fortress wall 100 blocks away from spawn. No housing at spawn, leave it up to players to build their homes outside of the fortress.

yes i say a Compass, a wall, and just light up the spawn to make it safe, beyond that, its up to the folks living there to make it into something amazing.

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By +Nik Louch · Posted

      I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By Yogurth · Posted

      The biggest issue in this version of Win 11 context menu, from usability standpoint, is the movable row with basic commands. Think of a car analogy...if You turn the week left the infotainment screen will move right and vice versa. With how it works now Microsoft made something forbidden in designing in any UI, software or hardware. I can't grasp who were the morons within Microsoft suggesting it was a good idea and gave it a green light.
    • LibreOffice 26.2.4

      By Copernic · Posted

      LibreOffice 26.2.4 by Razvan Serea LibreOffice is the free power-packed Open Source personal productivity suite for Windows, Macintosh and Linux, that gives you six feature-rich applications for all your document production and data processing needs: Writer, Calc, Impress, Draw, Math and Base. Support and documentation is free from our large, dedicated community of users, contributors and developers. You, too, can also get involved! Choosing Between LibreOffice Still and LibreOffice Fresh: LibreOffice Still is a good choice if you value stability, a longer support cycle, and a more conservative approach to software updates. It's suitable for businesses and organizations where reliability and compatibility are crucial. LibreOffice Fresh is ideal if you're an enthusiast or an early adopter who wants to stay on the cutting edge of LibreOffice development and is willing to accept more frequent updates and occasional minor issues. Features: Writer is the word processor inside LibreOffice. Use it for everything, from dashing off a quick letter to producing an entire book with tables of contents, embedded illustrations, bibliographies and diagrams. The while-you-type auto-completion, auto-formatting and automatic spelling checking make difficult tasks easy (but are easy to disable if you prefer). Writer is powerful enough to tackle desktop publishing tasks such as creating multi-column newsletters and brochures. The only limit is your imagination. Calc tames your numbers and helps with difficult decisions when you're weighing the alternatives. Analyze your data with Calc and then use it to present your final output. Charts and analysis tools help bring transparency to your conclusions. A fully-integrated help system makes easier work of entering complex formulas. Add data from external databases such as SQL or Oracle, then sort and filter them to produce statistical analyses. Use the graphing functions to display large number of 2D and 3D graphics from 13 categories, including line, area, bar, pie, X-Y, and net - with the dozens of variations available, you're sure to find one that suits your project. Impress is the fastest and easiest way to create effective multimedia presentations. Stunning animation and sensational special effects help you convince your audience. Create presentations that look even more professional than the standard presentations you commonly see at work. Get your collegues' and bosses' attention by creating something a little bit different. Draw lets you build diagrams and sketches from scratch. A picture is worth a thousand words, so why not try something simple with box and line diagrams? Or else go further and easily build dynamic 3D illustrations and special effects. It's as simple or as powerful as you want it to be. Base is the database front-end of the LibreOffice suite. With Base, you can seamlessly integrate into your existing database structures. Based on imported and linked tables and queries from MySQL, PostgreSQL or Microsoft Access and many other data sources, you can build powerful databases containing forms, reports, views and queries. Full integration is possible with the in-built HSQL database. Math is a simple equation editor that lets you lay-out and display your mathematical, chemical, electrical or scientific equations quickly in standard written notation. Even the most-complex calculations can be understandable when displayed correctly. E=mc2. LibreOffice also comes configured with a PDF file creator, meaning you can distribute documents that you're sure can be opened and read by users of almost any computing device or operating system.

    • Amazon eero Pro 6E mesh Wi-Fi system 2-pack is 27% off

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      Amazon eero Pro 6E mesh Wi-Fi system 2-pack is 27% off by Ivan Jenic The Amazon eero Pro 6E mesh Wi-Fi system is currently $239.99 on Amazon for the 2-pack, down from $329.99. That's 27% off and $90 saved for a solid Wi-Fi solution that covers your entire home (purchase link down below). The 2-pack covers up to 4,000 square feet (372 square meters) and supports 100+ connected devices, which handles the vast majority of home setups without breaking a sweat. Wi-Fi 6E brings access to the 6 GHz band for lower latency across the network, and the 2.5 Gb Ethernet port supports gigabit+ internet plans if your ISP offers them. eero's TrueMesh technology handles traffic routing automatically, so you're not manually managing which devices connect to which node. You set up the entire thing through the eero app, and the entire process takes a few minutes. The system also receives automatic security updates in the background, so once you set it up, you don't have to worry about compatibility issues. If you're covering a larger home or want more nodes, the 3-pack is $329.99 and the 4-pack is $479.98, both at similar discount levels. It's worth mentioning that a newer model exists, which is likely the reason for the discount, but the Pro 6E is still perfectly capable hardware for most homes.
