Good idea, didn't know that mob griefing actually disabled that. Still good to have a dynmap back.

 

Also which cretin put a Microsoft flag on Steve's chest? I'm gonna thump whoever did it. :p

Well.. :shiftyninja:

I just tried placing some blocks below y 64 and didn't have an issue. Did it happen as you placed the blocks, randomly, or after some time? Most of my building is around y 68 and above, and I haven't noticed anything, but I haven't been on in the last week.

it hapens reandomly iv found comel in the ocen just floting thare and my builed on bed rock keeps haveing blocks dissapere and cobel randomly a pere and the cobel dasent nesasarly tack the place of blocks that go missing and its the most notisbel on bedrock

hey i made a post the other day asking for some help with my own server and im sure theres some one who may be able to help so i figured that i would ask that you guys take a look at it for me id really appreciate any help https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1250330-a-little-minecraft-help/

I did a sweep of the area and punched all the random floating cobble/stone, could just be a bug in the ocean generation. Not sure what would cause blocks to randomly change at bedrock though.

Hey Lou --

 

Did you disable chickens laying eggs on the server?  My chicken cooker isn't producing anymore since the chickens have all suddenly become sterile...

 

Thanks!

Egg laying seems to be working again.

 

Also, are you logging anything yet?  Someone came into my house, played with my cow farm, destroyed the water in the breed-assist dispenser, and let a bunch of cows out.

 

I have also noticed the odd missing blocks at lower levels that others have reported -- along with dark spots suggesting that the game doesn't realize they are missing.

Yet again, someone has been stealing my stuff, and breaking things. The sugar cane is just silly, there is literally a chest and a half of it free at the iron farm. But why go and break the redstone lighting control? That's just unacceptable, and flat out griefing.

Maybe Lou has had time to do enable logging. Perhaps we'll find out who it is this time.

The problem with logging is the space it takes up. I used to run a server which had logging and backups so you could go to an area, see who changed what recently and you could revert any changes. The problem was it used up multiple GB's of space in just a couple of days. Eventually it filled up all the HDD space on my server and corrupted the world because the world save couldn't save properly. (luckily I had offline backups!)

 

This was at least a year or 2 ago though so maybe there are better solutions now.

Of bigger concern to me is all the random missing blocks and sheets of unmoving lava. I fell in one today -- fortunately I always keep a fire resist potion on my hotbar. I suspect it's just a matter of time before one of these missing blocks breaks some of my Redstone...

Well, someone decided to kill all of my sheep, cows, rabbits, pigs, chicken AND all of my villagers. The animals I can recover from, but the villagers I worked REALLY hard to cure and unlock. I had nearly 40 of them -- not to mention the ones I had repopulated in the east desert village which are also gone.

 

Don't really feel much like playing anymore.

    • I like the show more options. The only problem with it is that it's not always in a consistent spot in the menu. If the copy/paste/cut, happens to show on top, then more option is the last in the menu. But if copy/paste/cut happens to show on the bottom, then more options is before the copy/paste/cut. But I do like the more options because it hides the stuff that I rarely use. But I would like to choose what it is or isn't hiding. That would make it better.
    • I wonder if "put it back the way it was for decades" ever crossed their minds? 🤣
    • Rescind the stupid "Show more options" in context menus and just give us the full menu instead of adding more steps to get to what we want. The "simpler by default" makes me think they'll go in the opposite direction. Every context menu should have a configure button so you can pick and choose what options should be shown, I know you can do that with some registry fu but that shouldn't be required.
    • This is why competition must exist. Finally, pressure is mounting on Microsoft to move in the right direction.
    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable by Taras Buria Five years ago, Windows 11 introduced redesigned context menus, offering users a simpler, more modern design. However, customers quickly discovered that the new menus leave a lot to be desired. Many are unhappy with performance (they are really slow), while others dislike the double-layed design, where many options are hidden behind the "Show more options" button. In addition, over the years, menus became cluttered and overloaded. While Microsoft has already fixed plenty of pain points across Windows 11, context menus remain mostly unchanged. Fortunately, Microsoft is finally listening. Marcus Ash, Design and Research Lead for Windows at Microsoft, responded to a tweet on X, confirming that the company is working on fixing Windows 11's context menus. Reworked context menus are supposed to be faster, simpler by default, and "configurable to what you use most." What the latter means is unknown, just like whether Microsoft plans to keep the classic menu alongside the modern one, but according to Marcus, the wait should finally be over soon, as he promised to "share our approach soon." Improved context menus will most likely appear first in Windows 11 preview builds in the Experimental Channel. While we wait for Microsoft to release them, you can try fixing context menus on your PC with a simple tool called Windows 11 Context Menu Manager. It lets you disable entries you do not need, not only cleaning up context menus, but also making them significantly faster. Microsoft has already improved Windows 11's Start menu and taskbar, so hopefully it will address user criticism of the context menu as well. Stay tuned for new Windows 11 preview builds, which usually arrive every Friday.
