Overworld preservation.

[AdmSirRed]

So, the server resets about once a year due partly to a buildup of claims of people never coming back or due to resources being farmed out or locations being destroyed for one reason or another. (lycanites events etc) 

 

I was wondering if it is possible for a person, or position be made dedicated to the preservation and cleaning of the overworld by regenerating parts of the overworld as an alternative to resetting the entire world once a year. My thoughts would be to preserve larger builds of people (yea like me, am biased) for longer periods of time as well as allowing more long term development. 

 

Not sure if its possible to reset players separate of the world for things like rebalancing players and the market once a year. 

 

either way I think it would make the server more interesting in the long run and add to the exploration nature of it if something like this is possible.

well it will be hard since *regenerating part of the overworld* will need world edit to do that and it will be hard to select the "specific" parts bec if so then mods/admins need to go to the specific parts and do that which will be hard to do

They already have a claim removal system. This system you are proposing would be alright if there were no exceptions. When i played and admined in 7d2d we were responsible for things like claim removal but we didn't reset the place to day 1 as we had reset zones. The duty over there was remove the landclaimblocks, destroy all the stuff, wreck the base to ground level and make it look like it was never touched even tho any resouces mined out were never replaced.  Our removal timeframe was after they hadn't logged in for 30 days which they then extended as you can imagine because we had some people thinking they were logging back before the 30th day only to find out they logged in 31 days after there inactivity.  If they start just wiping out claims to regenerate the world they will run into some flak for people who thought they were in time. I think it would be more beneficial atm for anything we can't get in raid world to be proposed to be added to the current votechests like perhaps the cave crystals and maybe the archaelogist hats. The cave crystals could be a pack of each color giving 16 to 32 in either the normal or legendary crates and the archaeologist hat due to its rarity and only findable from archaelogist villagers in main world as a one time trade could go into the mystic crate.

  Or they can even just add alot of the stuff we can't get outside of mainworld to the shop as it looks like it has room for a few more items and is honestly due for some expansion in what it offers.

 Here tho we know they can revert a claim literally back to day 1 so if you wanted it preserved it would sadly need to be used on anyone and everyone who hasn't played for x amount of days. Not just preserve the big builds/claims and f off anyone with a smaller build who may have invested as much time playing as someone who did a bigger build. Honestly the people with bigger claims or multiple claims being cleared out would do more towards this presevation than just reseting all the smaller ones.

 Also lycanite events destroying things is part of the modpack. Shivaxi wants you to think in every aspect of the game. So lycan mobs destroying, wood, turning cobblestone to lava puddles, and obsidian back to lava sourceblocks is all about making u think about what your doing and how you do it. This applies to farming, fishing (sometimes u fish up hostile mobs), mining, and going out to find dungeons or specific items/resources. 

 On top of that lycanite events are one of the faster ways to level up your knowledge rank and tame pets/mounts easier with how the server has a lower spawnrate than normal rlcraft would.

as much as we hate lycanite events, its sort of part of the game and i agree with tcfg
