Hey Everyone, the Creative Muliplayer Server is coming up soon, but since I want to make it perfect for you guys, I've been asking around to see if I can come up with a list of features that players wanted implemented. Then I can make sure the most popular features make it into the server! So far I've got:
- Have Common Contests to keep players interested. (Have prizes be non-smp related. Possibly a temporary forum title, possibly medals to be seen in game)
- Have two maps, 1 for serious building, and 1 for for anyone who wants to build anything. To build on the serious map, players would need approval for a great build made on the beginner map.
- Add a new forum badge, next to the pick sword and helmet, that could signify if you play on CMP. Possibly iron or coal ore for those on just the beginner map, and gold or diamond ore for those approved to build on the serious map.
- Add an archive map for great builds if serious map gets over crowded. (Implemented later on)
- Have a way to do epic team builds. (with possible team building contests)
- Seperate circuits for team building contests.
- Able to set 3 homes
To clarify, the following are ideas that after several hours of deliberation on IRC, some do not want (thanks Skyara):
- No ranks (other than mods/admins)
- No Leaderboards
- Nothing like Realms (other than the teams idea, that means no reputation, premium membership, individual worlds/plots). This is because CMP should be an open-ended environment and not restricted to tiny spaces. Also because of server limitations.
- NONE of the CMP maps should be testing grounds. CMP should be for those that actually want to build, not test redstone circuits. If you want to do that, do it on SP.
- The "Serious" map should have limited usage of redstone. This means that it should only be the bare basic redstone circuitry. None of those fancy things like giant calculators and clock mechanisms. Piston doors are fine.
- The medal system is not, and should not be a currency.
- Some people want CMP to be completely seperate from the other two servers other than inter-server travel using Science
- Some want CMP to not grant anything on the forums (this excludes the block icon idea)
I'm sure I probably missed a few things, so post any ideas or questions you have and I'll either add them to the lists or try to answer them if i can.

On Skyara's note, maybe warps can be purchased by the following system:
If you had a medal for winning a contest you can have a maximum of 3 warps on your account. Ability to reposition and delete YOUR OWN warps. Constant medals will be 6, 9 and so on.
If you have a build a winner may not protect someone elses warp using one of theirs nase they fight and he removes it for one and others as well.
You can ask to have a warp set if a staff member is free. maybe a system like if you played x hours you can do /requestwarp and it will go to a pending list for staff to check when free. Staff use /warprequests #id accept/deny

No way that we could give you power over your own warps and nobody elses. That would just be /home. I think the best way to solve that would be after you build a couple of things, you can request that area be made into a warp. Warps would be used to show off your build to other people. If it's just so you can get back to it and build more, then that's what setting a home is for. Or using a minimap to mark the location and then flying there. Or maybe just give everybody access to /ttppos so you can just write down the coords of your build and then teleport there any time you want.
| |  |
You could make it so that people just use /home, and make it so that everyone can go to everyone elses' homes.
| | |
There is a old school plugin, xWarp allowing you to manage your own warps. Essentials doesnt but that does. There is probably newer plugins that do that now. Example: http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/niftywarp/
| | |
No way Jak. Some people may want privacy and still want to be able to access their builds remotely.
| | |
@jak how would that be different then everyone just being able to set warps?
| | |

Essentials can do this.
I want to suggest that some items aren't availiable right from the start but that sounds a bit cruel to me.
| | |
Because then you could limit how many people could set, I am not sure that you can do that with warps.
| | |
@Yenwood
Essentials can only make, delete and reposition warps. As for restricting items, may be needed because everyone wanted a regular world and i wanted flatlands with a plot plugin which would be better.
@Jak
Exactly, so I suggest checking out that plugin. Homes are too far, as Sky said, people want privacy on incomplete builds. Warps have a low amount of perms. Dats why we like niftywarps ;3
| | |
3 set home locations
| | |
Just set it as homes how we have it on smp.
| | |
I'd think people would be conflicted over having a flatland or normally generated world... could you split the map down 0, 0 so that half the map would be flat and half normal?
Also, will the same claim blocks thing stay for creative?
| | |
I think that we should be able to select areas for mob spawning, areas where explosions will work, (for tnt launchers and such) and also, perhaps do something like add an extra rank into cmp so that people could use command blocks.
| | |
Due to Skyara disapproval, no ranks except member, mod and admin atm.
| | |
I thought that giving members /op was a far fetch. What about my other requests?
| | |
@Skyara The Econ wont extend from SMP so buying warps would be hard.
The Home idea could work but the warps would also be for the Comp judges to look at builds.
I have a few surprises up my sleve for CMP, keep the ideas or feedback comming, will help us create something that will suit everyone
| | |
I like the idea of a CMP badge. Gotta show off what servers you play on.I also agree witht he 2 maps. Would keep the serious map free of test builds or people jsut messing around. Archiving great builds woul dalso be a good idea to implement later on. just my 2 cents.
| | |
@kingofthepong, The map is going to be a normal world. For people that want flat areas, it doesn't take very long to flatten an area while in creative. However for someone who wants to build a house in the side of a mountain, it would take them quite a while to build a realistic looking mountain.
I think the CMP badge is a great idea, and would work well, the only problem being that h4x is most likely the only one who can add it, so that'd be a few weeks of poking him trying to wake him from his steak and beer fueled slumber.
As for setting 3 homes, is that really that much different then setting 2? Your homes should just be to an area where you can build. No reason to space all your builds out all over the map. And keep in mind that getting around won't take nearly as long as SMP, since flying makes the area go by much faster.
| | |
for me i would like to build in different locations such as a jungle, extream hills and the plains
| | |
Jox demands that a series of cool pig racing tracks be built.
| | |
and Jox will not get it
| | |
Jox can build them hisself.
| | |
Jupiter wins.

Added it to the main post.
| | |
Thanks babe :)
| |  |
Funny cause skyara isnt actually gonna play
| | |
Could somebody please answer my question about tnt for cannons and mob spawning and such?
| | |
Tnt and mobs make it too easy to lag the server. So no.
| | |
hmm are monster eggs disabled right?
| | |
SnowGlobe plans to do that.
| | |
Hey, is it possible to have towny? :3
| | |
All fantastic ideas and feedback, thanks for that guys!
CMP will enter a testing phase before we make it all final so you will all get a taste of whats to come when we enter our final testing mode.
Testing mode as an ETA of next weekend
| | |
Well, what's the point?
We will be in creative.
| | |
In case if somebody does something stupid like drill through the bottom of the world and dies, will keepInventory be on for if they have some sort of a meticulously designed inventory?
| | |
No spamming water/lava buckets :I
| | |
Being able to build in the end would be awesome, If only you could get it to spawn more than one island.
| | |
It would be very easy to copy and paste the island a few times, far away from each other, then have command blocks to take you to the different island.
| | |
I know that all of our community members are mature enough to not need this rule, but in case if a new player joins, we should have the rule "Do not build any inapropriate structures." This will ensure that nobody comes on and says they did not know it was against the rules.
| | |
I have a idea...
1. As one of the contests there could be skin contests i know how to make the things and would be glad to help people make them :D
And i have a question...
are there going to be like plots?
and if so how big will they be?
| | |
Explain more about the skin contests. Do you mean making statues of players on the server or making actual player skins?
If it's making actual player skins, then no. It is not related to CMP at all.
In response to your second question, no, there will be no plots at all. CMP is designed to be an open-ended and infinite environment for big builds so having plots is meaningless and unnecessary.
| | |
Oh yeah just realized that its just a thing you buil with stations and piston sorry nvm
and thx I think it will be better with no plots
| | |
Ive seen this on a few servers, but when you respawn you can get a copy of a book with rules in it?
| | |
After a while, I find spawning with a book in my inventory to be annoying.

But you'd learn to live with it for the sake of people knowing the rules, right?
| | |
Of course I would learn to live with it. But, I am just thinking that there are some servers on classic where you have the /rules, and you have to /agree to the rules to play on the server. Is it possible to do this on premium?
| | |
In regards to the rules and such
I've been chatting with snow about it and i think the solution that we're working with at the moment will keep everyone happy =]

O so very mysterious Spud is....
