• Allowed Replay Mod
  • Set an alt in your faction with this mod to learn how you were raided, who raided you and what was taken
  • Useful to report glitches, abuse, hackers, etc when evidence may have not been available otherwise
• Spawners must be placed for 24 hours in order to count toward FTOP
• 100% chance to Silk Touch spawners placed within 1 hour, 50% chance after.
  • The time is calculated from the initial placing of the 1st spawner block. Stacking extra spawners (2x, 3x, 4x, 5x) on a spawner block that was placed more than 1 hour ago will still only give you a 50% drop chance on each downgrade.

Edit-
Last Minute Changes

• TNT functionality has been recoded and retested to improve cannons
  • Now explodes in a symmetrical round design instead of spigot's random "real" pattern
  • More fixes/optimizations to improve TPS while Cannoning

  • Cannon tests with this appear to break 1 wall at a time instead of 2 and a 4s multi-shot auto-cannon can 1 shot 1 wall
• Faction Shields have been implemented (/f shield)
  • Must be set during grace period
  • Lasts for 6 hours per day
    
  • While shield is active, tnt is disabled in claims
• Knockback has been enhanced
• Printer (and Printer mode) tested to be able to print flawlessly (no more getting kicked and no more block lag!)

 

It'll give me something to do XD

 

At $100 stack, no one used it. Cactus is $160 a stack in the current season. Mycel is slower farm than cactus. I wager it still gets little use :)

 

The kangaroo gang will becoming harder than ever on this season

 

Thanks! :D
