So I finally manned up and got the 1.3_01 update after I felt Minecart Mania and MCEdit were stable enough to try updating the client and the server. To this day I haven’t seen any bugs, and the version seems pretty stable. I’m thankful for that.
\nThe Spawner plugin made by BloodInside was another story. Due to Afforess releasing a “massive update” of Minecart Mania to bump it out of Alpha and into Beta (to me it’s still the same way he had it before), the Spawner plugin broke.
\nWhen trying to call for a cart, an error spams the server console. And diamond ore blocks were not deleting minecarts.<\/p>\n
Someone posted the error and I walked in to report I too am seeing it. Yet BloodInside never logged in to fix it. We waited for two days and I began to worry if I should either postpone redesigning of my stations to make them Minecart Mania-compatible until he finally updates it, or to resort to using the Chest Control plugin.
\nAfter testing how to use the plugin and getting it working, I first tried it out with Wayward Desert Station. Routing the tracks that would take empty minecarts back to the chest was not easy. Neither was having to rewire them.<\/p>\n
Finally I had both directions setup and I got it working, but I wasn’t happy. All because of the one thing Chest Control doesn’t have yet but the Spawner does; Grief Control. The delay before another cart can be spawned.
\nI wanted to beg Afforess to take over for this guy, since he seems to update his plugins better. He said if BloodInside didn’t update the plugin by Friday, he would do it.
\nNow, this would be OK if it wasn’t for two things…
\n1. My patience for things that delay my work is non-existent.
\n2. Possible IRL severe weather event on Saturday, wanting to get everything done before it hits.<\/p>\n
Seeing how others also wanted Afforess to just update the damn thing, I joined saying I didn’t want to be forced to use Chest Control. But the irony in that was telling people to<\/em> use it. Before I realized, Afforess finally decided to apply a quick fix for it to make it work. I quickly grabbed it, installed, and tried it out. And it works just like it did before with no changes to it. All I wanted was it to work. So I finally manned up and got the 1.3_01 update after I felt Minecart Mania and MCEdit were stable enough to try updating the client and the server. To this day I haven’t seen any bugs, and the version seems … Continue reading
\nAgain, Afforess refused saying he’ll fix it Friday. Someone didn’t like what I said and said why do I want something that does the same thing. I defended my words by saying I need grief protection and why.
\nA few hours later, someone quoted my post and said that he hates Chest Control, and Spawner makes things cleaner.<\/p>\n
\nI wanted to kiss Afforess’ ass for getting it working. But the best way to do that is to give him a donation. But now with it working I can resume construction.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
