6 June, admin commands

Possibly add a pardon/unban command for both IPs and UUIDs?

 

Ooooh, makes sense. Is that coord update coming up in the next big batch or is something even further away in the future?

 

It's not that, it's just the way the Engine is designed to work, it changed every update till now (as devs always added new content to the game as biomes, dungeons, monsters...), i think it's their way to spread all the content towards the Universe, they kinda "re-generate" the whole Universe again.

Still if you have any world save file, it won't change a thing because it will use the save file, not generating it again on a newer version.

 

Procedurally generated isn't the same as randomly generated, but yes, it is one humongous universe with a chance to spawn in a different place, which is why coordinates are transferable. I believe though, that with each version, they generate a new universe? I'm not entirely sure on that one.

Could any devs explain? Kinda curious about the specifics of the generation myself.

 

Cool

 

Set gravity has so many fun possibilities. Arenas... obstacle courses... sky cities... can't wait

 

Nice.
That's all I have to say.

 

commands to set the oxygen level of the planet and the temperature should also be utilized, as well as a command for all items in your inventory going to max stack.

 

First of all, thank you for the commands!
Will there be a command to protect the ship chests?

 

Looks like that dinner I am going to have. Tasty... srsly I had better analogies and silly comparasions a while back -.-

 

A command that sets the weather
A command that freezes liquids in place
A command that quickly settles all liquids
A command that returns players to their ship
A command that moves a player's ship to the planet they are on
A command that returns players to their home planet
A command that temp bans
A command that gags a player
A command that freezes EVERYTHING except for admin behavior (Give it a time limit that has to be refreshed by an admin though)

 

Like someone previously said:
A protect (can't place or remove blocks, loot or fill containers, either world wide, or coords based)
A planet reset (delete modifications, or delete everything, and re-run generation for said planet)


New requests
A special event trigger (make them meteorites fall! or just lot of rain...of acid!)
A position getter (/whereis <name/ID>), returning Sector, System Coords, Planet Name, Ship or World Coordinates). Could be used to figure protect locations.

 

Looks Absolutely Fantastic!

Looking forward to the update!

 

I would also suggest that some commands could have 2-way data (like in "Source" engine), for eg. writing /gravity with no parameters would print the current gravity, and writing /gravity X would set it to X.
This makes the implementation more messy, but groups the basic get-set functions and makes the system more self-documented (for eg. showing the value ranges, possible parameters)

 

I would suggest commands for an admin to adjust the planet in a larger sense.
Already mentioned was weather and temperature.
In case the admin is the storyteller type of person, allow them to change the biome, make a planet 'peaceful'/'not peaceful' (no mob spawns), generate structures (if possible), the ability to spawn a merchant (and fiddle with their selling inventories), and finally the protect option to keep your players from destroying a story creation. Maybe even an option for the admin to say: I want to make a planet at "x/y/sector" with "these parameters" and "this indigenous race" and "these types of structures", including the option to 'create a starbase' type thing. Also, the option to 'reset' a planet (created planets would delete or reset to base parameters)

 

Yup!

 

Does this mean we can get the thing I've been wanting since day one, server join and leave announcements?

 

Is the /SetWeather X X X still available?

 

Will spawning everything ruin the game, I wonder?

 

Eh, people already do it in mass with cheats inside servers! And generate stuff is not that easy, you need to find the item codes for each thing you want to spawn, unless they are able to make it so it recognizes Item Names.
