Mob Spawning

We are working on fixing mob spawning. A fix was rolled out to Skyblock yesterday which has fixed the natural spawning of mobs but not the despawning of villagers or named mobs.

This new build will be on survival hopefully tomorrow.

Lag Update

Lag issues have been resolved in the past week and I am now very happy with the overall performance of all of the servers. Please keep in mind that your internet provider and the NBN is also under a lot higher load than normal, so you might experience some lag yourself. One tip, make sure you have a home set that isn't on top of carpet.

The overloading of our network from Skyblock has been fixed. We will be restoring tab in the coming days with an update for that plugin.

Skyblock Reset

We reset the Skyblock server on Friday. This new reset has brought some improved cosmetic features to the skyblock plugin, more optimisations, brand new spawn and other gameplay improvements. Everyone seems to be loving it so far!

You can claim your spawners back from previous maps here (link thread please).

They will be handed out in the coming days.

Free Groot Pet

As a thank you to everyone for your patience with the recent lag issues, there is a free Groot Pet in the Limited Time section of each server's stores.

Skyblock

Welcome to the new Skyblock map!

It’s been an exciting week in the skies, with a brand new spawn and new islands to build, so let’s get right into it!

A forum post has been set up regarding Spawner Claims! If you have used /spawner claim in game and have not received your purchased spawners, please head to: tinyurl.com/April2020SpawnerClaim

A new map means new and awesome content for you to explore!

Who will reign supreme on /baltop this map? Who will achieve the highest Prestige level? Who will build the prettiest island? Who will get the most amount of zaps with their sparklegun? It could be you… so get skyblocking!

Staff are working hard at zapping those pesky bugs and improving gameplay, so please let them know if you come across any bugs or have ideas you’d like to share!
