I'm OK with this.

Here's a thought: I don't know the specifics in terms of what mods were used, but I've been on servers that essentially have multiple "worlds" on them, in the same way that the Nether and End are treated as separate world maps from the basic overworld.  A setup like that would give the fresh new map, but also enable people in the midst of projects on the old map to continue on.  Is that within the realm of possibility?

I might be joining in September, glad to have a fresh start Any mods planned? I've been playing a lot of industrialcraft^2 recently and i've never had that much dun in vanilla

I like this idea but if it isn't feasible then could a chest for each of the regulars filled with a few tools and a few exotic materials?  You wouldn't believe how much stuff I got saved up in my half built tower...  not to mention the time and effort it took to rebuild the netherrail when it last got wiped.

At least the old world is going up as a torrent.  I'll download it and stick it onto a DVD-RAM if it'll fit.  Won't be seeing any of that old style worldgen terrain ever again.

NoOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

I'll give it a quick test

EDIT:
Alright, found a nice little plugin and have done all the necessary research on my server for it

Basically, once a world is created, anyone can teleport to it at will using the plugin command (there's a ingame help page for everything as well)

Nice.  Posting from work so I don't have time to check the links.  What would be cool is if the worlds could be linked via portals somehow, maybe only in the nether via a pair of master gates to keep each world's nether separate....

That's what the Multiverse Portals plugin does for you

[headdie]

I think what butter_pat_head is on about is having having a structure like a nether or end portal that the player can just stand in for a couple of seconds and the script kicks in to move you to the alt world

There's Core, Portals, and Nether Portals
I touched on Core which uses the TP command.

Well... I would like to save my old, old, old castle. But otherwise a fresh start actually sounds appealing, when I actually have a chance to play Minecraft again.

[IronBeer]

I'm looking forward to conquering a fresh new world! So, if the new version comes out on Aug 1, when's the server going to wipe?

[Akalabeth Angel]

I take it that Creeper damage & so forth will still be turned off? (whatever optional settings are in effect).


Hmmn, I'm okay with a fresh server. I only just started anyway on this server, and while I've built a couple of large structures they can be built again. Bigger, better, etcetera.

Was it exciting when you abandoned Trashmania for New Trashmania? You can have that same feeling in the new world. Just build it bigger & better And take pictures of your past builds to preserve them.

Ah... there was a lot of kicking, screaming, and yelling the day Trashmania was abandoned, for various reasons... It's really not on the top of anyone's list.

[IronBeer]

Oh, one more thing. Before the planet Gargamel ends, I want to take a crack at the Ender Dragon. Who do I pester to make that happen?

Qaz. To make a new one, because it is already dead. The End has been tamed for quite some time now.

Old TrashMania was still there... people could still visit.

I can download the map and play single, but whats the point? No one visits.

[deathfun]

Honestly, using a multiverse would solve pretty much everyone's gripes about refreshing the map, but I have no issues personally with a fresh start
