I just asked about this in our admin chatroom and I can confirm that there are currently no plans for a reset to infinity node farmworlds.. while automated monthly resets with automatic announcements beforehand are a planned feature that we are looking forward to adding it is not ready to implement just yet, and as there haven't yet been any announcements about a reset happening we will not be doing one today.
Chaos, I thought it was a usual monthly thing due to the end being a bedrock 3x3 platform when you spawn due to people mining for draconium
Nope it has never been on a set monthly timer.. we do it when enough people request it in threads like this.. and as we have pointed out many times, the main end island is not the only source of draconium.. there is loads of the stuff in the comets which will keep spawning no matter how far out you go so there is no shortage of draconium for those who are willing to look for it.
Agreed on the last server i played on i got tired of resetting the end constantly so next time i regenerated the end i removed all draconium from the main end island and increased the spawn rate of commets to 500 problem solved..
That is exactly the kind of thing I think we should do actually so thanks for suggesting it @Administrator @Founder could we do this please? Not only will it dissuade people from tearing the main end island to pieces leaving it an ugly mess but it will also make it so people don't have to spam load lots of chunks while flying through the end searching for comets if they aren't so rare!
the only thing it didnt fix was people looking for end amethyst but the end destruction was slowed down when i enabled enderamethyst in the overworld and the nether then i reset the end about once every 4 months or so.
Thats a huge increase on the spawn rate and goes against needing reset less frequent as that rate would have comets almost withing each other the entire way. The default config is 10,000 apart before we reset the nodes we had lowered it to 7500, we could go to that level again or maybe 5000 but not to 500
Are you sure you're not thinking of the big chaos islands which spawn 10k apart? the 10k in the config for small comets is the chance of spawning per chunk so that is very rare tbh, and even at 500 they still take a good bit of flying to get from one to the next.. i just made a testworld in single player with the comet spawn set to 500 and this is the result (bearing in mind the explored area is 3k wide and there are only 4 comets in that total area): Spoiler: comet density 500 The rarer they are, the further people need to fly to find them, and I have personally seen that drop the tps by half forcing me to /purgechunks every couple of minutes just to keep the server from timing everyone out, so I think 500 is perfectly reasonable if it minimises this unnecessary lag and it definitely would promote less resets since there would be more draconium to go around (roughly 20 times as much to be precise), or even 1k I think would be a much better rarity than 5k+ considering that 10k is the intended rarity for singleplayer not big multiplayer servers.
when i had it set to 5000 or 2500 on average in a 5000 by 5000 map there waas approximately 5 and 10 comments respectivly.
Sooooooo since the reset is supposed to be happening shortly, can we get a decision about increasing the comet spawn chance before it happens? 'administrator After experimenting with different spawn chances in singleplayer I think a spawn chance of 1-2k would be ideal given the amount of people we have on each server (the default value of 10k is intended for singleplayer afterall!). Also I think we should go ahead with idea of using worldedit once the end is generated to replace all the draconium in the main end island with regular end stone and then putting a sign in front of the bedrock platform saying there is no draconium there so don't bother tearing the island apart looking for it for no reason!
I absolutely second this idea. At later stages (seconds after the regen), the spawn platform practically disappears due to extensive use of the 9x9x9 staff of power what almost prohibits summoning dragons.
