    We had that in one of the Crackpack versions, it worked OK until the first people got access to weapons of mass destruction and proceeded to create mass destruction.

    if you want to make a modpack of it, go right on ahead, wynd xD i'm not the most experienced pack developer and i sure cannot make a plugin to run the wilderness setup... lol.

    also, speaking of the wilderness, there are two choices; we have a build world and a "wilderness" world, or one world with a space for building and then there's the wilderness.

    It actually would be pretty easy... Generate just the first 16 regions around soawn with structures turned off, then turn structures on and gen some more, then turn on extra structures and more ore gen and gen some more.

    Actually... Using a world gen structure mod with x/z from spawn would do it to.

    well you'd know more about that than I would... lol. but the idea is like, a 5k-5k (positive 5k and negative 5k) region to build, and then outside of that you have dungeons which reset on occasion, containing some loot necessary to progress in some trees (like ars magica, or ic2)

    Doable with a bit (a lot but not massive) amount of work.

    good to hear it's possible xD also, just so nobody is caught off guard, there would either be a physical wall with signs saying that anything built or lost beyond this point is fair game, or a "textual barrier" where if they approach the border, they get a message in chat.

    If I've successfully planted the idea for the modpack into someone's head, they should really look at the old Civilization modpack, maybe the earlier versions because the pack was pretty modified toward the end to suit the players that were still there (selfish reasons really), like the addition of Ars Magika 2 (even though we all knew it would break the balance, we kinda still wanted it). I think you could find the versions on Curse, or you could ask around to see if anyone still has it installed on their computer.[DOUBLEPOST=1491360436][/DOUBLEPOST]Or you could ask Krhymez about it. The intended goal was player interaction, so flight was pretty endgame stuff and railways and roads would have to be built to traverse large distances quickly.. it almost happened before people used Phones for teleporting to eachother.

    nah, you've got a really hard pack... with pvp... what could possibly go wrong? although it is hard enough on its own anyway

    the issue with invasion is that as the days go by, the entire world gets harder. so you've basically got built in noob stompers.

    I personally like the idea of setting the world to pvp. With claims set to disable break and place but nothing else. Then make sure explosions are turned on. Much wow.

    More of a raid server.

    Also no claims in the nether but make a reaon to go their.

    So....

    Inside Claims:
    • Only trusted players can break, place or open doors.
    • Every other action is allowed.
    • This includes explosions breaking blocks being allowed.

    Oh god no, if explosions are allowed in claims it'd make it into a modded FACTION server. The horror of obsidian cubes covered in water... Unless the explosion is reduced, but that still leaves chests unprotected. There's tons of ways to move through walls, so I don't think that'd work out.

    ... Modded
    There are many more ways to protect your base other than obsidian which can have it explosion resistance nerfed. Or just say that Obsidian is not to been seen

    i think the general idea of raiding is bad. pvp? cool. pvp enabled outside claims and anything not claimed is fair game.
