The server is up again, from support:

There was an update that caused a crash and the machine was restarted. Your server is up and running again.

The skyscraper project sounds cool, like Blotz I'd like to see the location you speak of.
Compliancea is a location in a savannah which I think has a similar project that a few people have been working on. It's near a coast but I don't know if people want skyscrapers in the water.

So I finally got a new laptop with some actually impressive integrated graphics (HD4400 is actually better than I thought) so I can now finally become a regular on the server :D

Cool

Here's today's progress on The Lime Road/"The Gay Mesa Road", all of the road inside the mesa biomes was built today, no more need to climb countless mesas to get through the area :)

Road reaches past x = 5000 now

So I was experimenting with large spruce trees. I didn't know this was a possible way for it to grow. Wut.

Today's invention: A modular system that distributes water on floors vertically which can be used in stacked farms. Each floor is 4m (including the floor blocks).

Floor above (and any floors above that):

Bottom floor:

Makes water flow down in a 3m wide line along with transferring it to the floor below.

I had only 14 netherwarts in public storage and I'm running low on new stuff to build, so I thought I'd make a netherwart factory. :P

I can build the canals in Kaktoland to make that possible, but we'll need more permissions before it can all be built.

So some people (not going to mention any names here, don't worry Fiah) really want Dynmap updated. I've taken a few minutes this night to check the basic problem, and basically, we need a script to automatically convert one data format from Inkscape, into the format used in Dynmap's marker.yml. If anyone wants to develop that, they're welcome.



So I thought of the script, and basically, it seems not too hard to develop if we consider how we can reduce the problem to something as simple as possible. Basically all that the script has to do is convert a format like this

Code: [Select]
    <path
       style="fill:#ffff00;fill-opacity:0.25098039;stroke:#000000;stroke-width:1px;stroke-linecap:butt;stroke-linejoin:miter;stroke-opacity:1"
       d="m 7925.4126,-3121.4648 8.0567,0.028 0.1123,-2.0493 45.8433,-22.506 16.3563,2.6202 z"
       id="Kaktoland"
       inkscape:connector-curvature="0"
       sodipodi:nodetypes="ccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc"
       inkscape:label="#path3015" />
    <path
       style="fill:#ffff00;fill-opacity:0.25098039;stroke:#000000;stroke-width:1px;stroke-linecap:butt;stroke-linejoin:miter;stroke-opacity:1"
       d="m 7772.5889,-3082.95 -1.1229,33.574 -2.9195,20.4364 -0.6737,20.7733 -22.6317,8.7421 -21.8717,27.9801 z"
       id="Epicland"
       inkscape:connector-curvature="0"
       sodipodi:nodetypes="cccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc"
       inkscape:label="#path2993" />

Into the format in Dynmap.

Code: [Select]
            Kaktoland:
                markup: false
                fillColor: 16776960
                label: Kaktoland
                ytop: 65.0
                z:
                - 84.0
                - 84.0
                - 69.0
                strokeColor: 16776960
                world: world
                ybottom: 65.0
                fillOpacity: 0.01
                strokeOpacity: 0.8
                strokeWeight: 3
                x:
                - -76.0
                - -68.0
                - -91.0
            Epicland:
                markup: false
                fillColor: 16776960
                label: Epicland
                ytop: 65.0
                z:
                - 123.0
                - 156.0
                - 177.0
                - 122.0
                strokeColor: 16776960
                world: world
                ybottom: 65.0
                fillOpacity: 0.01
                strokeOpacity: 0.8
                strokeWeight: 3
                x:
                - -229.0
                - -230.0
                - -233.0
                - -220.0

To make it simple and clear how the format looks, I've removed the vast majority of the coordinates (and randomly so the top ones aren't supposed to become the bottom ones no) and regions. I might try to look into making a script for the task sometime, but considering how eager the community is to get more regions on the map, we could also simply throw these two formats out there and tell them they can develop a script if they'd like more regions asap.

Something first needs to gather all the numbers on the left side of the commas into one array, and the ones on the right side into another. Then multiply/add whatever factors to each side in the array to get the coordinates to fit onto Dynmap (I guess you know those factors, Kip). Then generate a new file with the data pasted from the arrays below the z and x places. The rest is basically just snatching the id name from Inkscape file and putting it into the Dynmap marker file, and pasting all the default stuff that's basically the same for all the regions for each region.

Just as a matter of preference, I'd probably reorganize the data lines in a single region such that the x coordinates are the second last thing, and z coords are the last thing, instead of having z coords, then stroke color and other random stuff, and then x coords... That really bothers me kol. Haven't tested if this other format works.

Cause that makes it ok...I don't see human farms to give us resources! Just because you aren't killing them doesn't mean they aren't being exploited!

people don't produce anything special that people like and since we are people it is considered amoral, idk i didn't write minecraft or the code of laws of nature, i just like my own species and since i'm a human i don't care if other species go extinct unless it impacts me because we are all at least a little anthropocentric and i'm sure you are bovine-centric
