Hello everyone! If you didn't catch the last post I made, we are turning off the current world sometime on friday and oppening the new world during the end of my livestream on the same day. I usually stream between 6-9PM so tune in if you want to join right at the start! After that the world will stay open permenantly for you to enjoy :-)
So whats special about this world and season? We are going to be playing both vanilla terrain and biome bundle! You require no mods to play, just the latest snapshot. Two 25Kx25K portions of the world have been pregenerated, one is custom terrain and the other vanilla. Moving between these two areas is painless! At the center of each pregenerated area is a portal, walking into it takes you to the other area! Simple :-) You are all encouraged to create communal areas in both sets of terrain around the central portal.
The spawn chunks will be located in a void. They will simply serve as a place to respawn and select which area you want to go to. The reasoning for this is to reduce strain on the server and increase performance. There is next to nothing in the spawn chunks over than command blocks to process. Over time it will be transformed into a beautiful lobby and additional information may be displayed there about what statistics we are tracking.
