[Zz] Zedkins Seconds 01-08-2020

Scribe: Mellorian ~ See Forum Minutes

It's not quite ABP as a boot in a pie in an ocean of iron nuggets... unless it is? Maybe it's a metaphor.

A Light Topic before the Main

Several players have reported seeing lighting bugs since the update to 1.16.1

Specifically, dark spots have appeared in the world, though can be fixed by placing/breaking a block within the area affected.

Zed has promised to look further into it, in case there's an unlikely mass solution.

EXPLOSIOOOOONS

We spent some time querying on the mechanics of /toggleclaimexplosions, which seem to toggle off after a server reboot.

This is apparently the intended behaviour, and Zed has changed the informative message when placing tnt within a claim to show as such.

Last Seconds, I gave you my heart

Good news!

Wait... wrong topic...

We've added in a new join message!

Upon connecting to the server, you will see a notice slipped in amongst the others, asking you to check out the latest seconds, which could even be this one right here!

Clicking on it will always link to the latest seconds, isn't that neat?

Iron Farming

For an indeterminable amount of time ranging somewhere between five minutes and twelve years, we discussed the state of farming iron on Zz.

Many points were raised, and I feel it would be disingenuous to attempt to cover them all here. As such I'd like to direct you to the forum post in which we are discussing it currently, feel free to add your thoughts!

Clicky.

Mell's (but actually Zed's) Announcing Part!

Good news!

Casual Buildathon Sunday the 26th of July - 4pm to 9pm BST

The theme will almost certainly not be cobble related, though Mell promises he will attempt to persuade Zed otherwise.

After such a lengthy meeting, we all scattered to the winds, never to be seen again....

(Until next meeting anyway)
