Metatopia

Looks like the server isn’t accepting outside connections, so Metatopia will be down until I get home this evening. I checked this morning before work, and it seemed to be running okay, but I can’t connect or SSH in from work, so I guess something got borked. Sorry for the downtime.

There’s also a minor bugfix update that I need to load too, but that will also have to wait until this evening.

Edit: Notch claims to be doing another semi-major SMP update tomorrow, so I’ll probably hold off on patching up the server until that comes out. The minor update doesn’t require a server update, so we should be fine until then.

Edit2: Server should be accessible now. Jon is supposed to work on getting the server a static internal IP so this sort of thing doesn’t happen (had to reset the router last night, which caused the server to get a new IP on our internal network, which caused the port forwarding on the router to fail since it was pointing to the wrong IP~).

The server will be unplayable until I get a chance to update it to the new version. Unless I’m swamped at work, that should get done sometime this morning. We won’t have all the fancy hey0 features until that gets updated though. Just FYI.

Edit: Update is installed, but still no hey0. Also, there doesn’t seem to be a way to turn off player damage, so.. yeah. There shouldn’t be monsters, but you can die to falling damage, drowning, fire, lava, etc.

Edit2: hey0′s been updated. Have fun! :)

Since all parties involved seem happy with the idea, Metatopia will be undergoing a transformation this evening. The server will be getting a bigger hard drive (that hopefully won’t have its SATA connector broken), a fresh install, and I’m going to try a different server mod this time. Once that gets functional, I’m going to replace the world files with a snow world generated in singleplayer. Sadly, you can’t seem to collect snow. -.-

In any case, the end is nigh… >.>
