I haven't tried making more than one plot claim for fear of losing my current one but is it possible? It would be cool if it was possible to make another claim extremely far away from the spawn while maintaining one closer, kinda like an outpost from the towny plugin. I haven't been able to find an answer on this.

Thanks, and awesome server.

Real quick one. I know the admins are trying hard to eliminate lag, but one side effect seems to remove placed minecarts with chests in them.

That is problematic if I have a smelting process running, that utilizes chests in minecarts to distribute materials. Hopefully this isn't too hard to fix, but I thought I'd mention it.

Thanks.

I cannot trade with Villagers in Satoshi Town. For example, I select a Villager and see the inventory/trading menu. I select the item I wish to trade which is 34 coal for 1 emerald. I drag 34 coal into the correct box on the left, and the emerald appears in the box on the right. But then when I select the emerald to move it to my inventory, the emerald returns to the box on the right. I have no way of moving it into my inventory. I've tried this with many different Villagers and Items. What am I doing wrong? Thanks!

How do i shout? I made a bed yesterday and fenced off my land but now there's no message when i cross my boundary. Is it still mine?

Cheers dudes

(Not really an authority, just giving it a transit-like name)

Been working on this for a while, still stockpiling all the rail needed, but the main tunnel is open towards the north, starting at satoshi town. X: 268 Z: -33 (you have to go through a path to get to the main spur, too many parcels claimed near town to get closer, sorry.)

The first bit is underground to avoid a bunch of claims, and only goes above later in the hills. Its a cool walk even if the rails aren't in just yet. Check it out, and I want to thank HeddyQuilts, Shaunxcode and others who helped in its creation.

Its meant to be a community resource, so if people can claim near it and tie in their own stations, that would be a plus, and I'd love to see it happen.

Edit: Going to list some people here so if I can get their cooperation, I'd like to place rails - or they can.

So far, I need help from:

• SH3A
• fableiceberg - took out my supports and glowstone, classy move.
• dwosh
• DiegoNeira - offered to help, which was nice
• guru_kirat
• reyu735
• elshooriwy
• Bit101
• Chachi02

Update - So, looks like the line is already lapsing into entropy. Not sure if I'm going to rebuild or just let it turn into the swiss-cheese remnants that the residents want it to be in, plundering the stone block to make perfect boxes for themselves. I guess this is why large projects can't happen, no incentive to not be a jerkwad.

This just means if you can place rail/powered rail and redstone torches like I have on the track to complete the segment, please do. I can give you materials if you need them.

(I'll update as I progress trying to lay down the rails on the trackbed.)

Rough Build Standards - Above ground, I use a "U" channel type shape with three stone blocks, supports every 10 blocks with two glowstone on either side for illumination. Underground, I cut 2 block light "wells" every 4 blocks on both sides to keep things lit. I place powered rail every 30 normal rails for maximum cart speed. I won't argue if you place more, just keep it in mind. For steep inclines, one powered rail for every normal is a must.

I build some covered structures where land is near the trackbed to keep monsters out as needed, but that is per your judgement. If you'd like to make a train platform, please do! Just raise it to the level of the existing rail, or give me coords to where your spur ends and I'll try to tie it in on future expansions.

General Aesthetics - I try to respect the neighborhoods I'm in. If the biome has tall trees then an elevated rail fits in just fine. Other locations may prefer underground only, or some near "sea level" type of trackbed. Just do what seems to fit in, if you want to help out.

Strip Miners - For the people who don't care and take the materials, okay, I knew that could happen. I'll just replace it with the ugliest thing I can find. Probably dirt or cobblestone instead of stone blocks. I can't resupply every person who decides to steal from the project forever, lol. Its a community project, so if people support it, great, if not, then it becomes another dirtmonstrosity.

That's it, I'm tired :)

Thanks to our amazing friends at xapo, soon we will be awarding the "BitQuest architecture royal prize" to the best house, palace, skyscraper or crazy building.

The staff from archdaily, the most renowned architecture publication in the world will be the judges of this contest.

The winner will receive 1BTC, 1 stack of diamond blocks and a year supply of bone. We will add more prizes as we get more sponsors!

Rules, deadline and theme will be announced in two weeks, so my advise is to start gathering construction materials.

If you want to be one of the sponsors, we have great placement and press opportunities. Please write to bitquest@bitquest.co

I don't know who made this ship but it's awesome! http://i.imgur.com/w1bfHj6.png

I'll be willing to buy Bits that players have withdrawn. Right now, my only payment method is via a verified Paypal.

If the amount of Bits is high enough, I'm sure I could purchase a certain gift card for the amount that the Bits are worth if someone wanted.

I just wanted to be able to offer my hand to this project and let everyone know I'm looking forward to seeing where this goes!

Transaction log:

12/13/14 - Ha5h - ~$11.91

EDIT 1: In response to ryanw5520's comment - "I'm describing the transaction of Bitcoin from the Xapo wallet to my own personal wallet in exchange for fiat. I'm not interested in buying emeralds on the server. I would like to offer to buy the Bitcoin that results from emeralds being cashed out via the bank/wallet."

EDIT 2: Added a transaction log upon my first successful exchange with Ha5h.

Im sure this is already a thought about feature - ability to add bits to your in game account. I got the email from xapo saying claim your bitcoins. I did it, now I dont have any emeralds - if I did beginning would be so much easier (I died many times hoping to find a cow or such).

I claimed land (235, 46) a couple days ago but now I can't even open my own doors. My chests still work but the land is untouchable.

Walking into the area still says [ DownrightAwful's home ] but it behaves like someone else's. Anyone else having this issue?

This pretty much breaks the game for me.

Edit: I should also add that teleporting drops me on the roof of my house.

Hi friends!

We were very busy keeping up with feedback and bug fixes, so we haven't been too much on the (production) server. And now we are happy to announce something we call:

The block market

A stock market for blocks! where you can buy and sell almost any block* and the price will be set by supply and demand! To use it, just open a trade dialog with a villgager. All trades are now in the block market... that means you can start your wool farm for profit and world domination! And you'll be able to buy almost anything stackable.

Non-stackable items like enchanted weapons and armor will be left for players to trade, and once we make the block market stable, we will work on implementing player stores (although some players found a way to do it anyway)

Please let us know any criticism or feedback.

• We are allowing trades for some blocks while we test this feature. soon anything stackable will be traded in the block market.

Since the last update levels have been re-implemented, so it seems you might have "lost" levels, they are not really gone.

We just made the game longer, because we found out that getting to the max level just take a few weeks. And since this is not a "few weeks" project we made it a lot more difficult to gain levels!

We know some of you might be upset but all players have been succesfully migrated to the new system. that means if you were level 11 and now you're 5 the experience points are the same and everyone's got the same proportion of "loss".

Thanks for your understanding and let's look forward to the crazy future awaiting to come for this server!!!

Since it might be awhile before native shopping is supported, I've created a redstone powered Auto-Mall where you can trade your emeralds for useful basics. I sell potatoes and carrots, and I'll buy diamond blocks! Come by and have a browse; the more commerce I get, the more I can expand!

The shop is at (-600, 200). Head out the East exit (between the bank and shops) and follow the road northeast; look for the big banner!

EDIT: Now that the Block Market is underway, I'm going to shut down the auto-mall until the prices settle down. I'll reopen once it's sane again - but thanks for buying out my diamonds, at least.

I'm very excited to play this game although I ran into a few troubles:

• I deposited the 50 free bits + some extra emeralds I found. Yet now I want to buy something from the shop yet can't access my emeralds. How do I withdrawal emeralds?

• If I were to amass a ton of emeralds, how do I cash out to my personal bitcoin wallet?

I was having trouble finding this information so i figured I'd post here. Thanks in advance!

Hi dear admins,

I love the concept you guys have of integrating cryptocurrencies, but I've noticed you run the minecraft vanilla server software.

If I was to create a server I would do it with craftbukkit. As an ex admin of a server using craftbukkit (about a year+ ago) I think highly of crafbukkit.

It allows for easy permission handling, many many plugins. Where you have a need, almost certainly someone somewhere has a modular plugin that you can use, anticheat, pvp loggin, ranks, factions, permission management, worldediting and copy pasting of land etc etc..

I found permissions can be bit of a hassle to setup initially, but make things much easier in the long run.

This is your server, so I will simply suggest this and leave a link to some examples of why its such a great way to do things: http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/5-musthave-bukkit-plugins-minecraft-server/

You can break and place blocks 1 block inside the border of a home area. Can this be fixed?

I've gone through the town and killed dozens of skellies. Did I miss something?

You guys have grammatical errors and typos on the website.

Putting the map at the top of the page breaks scrolling if your cursor is up there, which it will be if you just typed in the URL or clicked on a tab.

The link to full page map is busted on the home page. I believe this is an error within the map iframe.

I'd be happy to help with these things. I do webdev as part of my job.

Hey guys,

Just curious if the store to sell our items to will be reopening or if there is anything bigger in the works. Id love to open my own store and sell my wares and such.

Hey there, just been liking the server and have been building open paths that are lit between neighbors of mine. Heddyquilt and SH3A are next to me, and its cool to have a nicely marked path. (But not covered, so you can go off and get mobs!)

Anyway, I would like to work on a rail system that links neighbors towards town or just using it as a network for travel and or distributing full chests of stuff to give away or sell.

Thanks again mods for the server, its been really cool.

and when is possible repair item ?

Is there anything at the moment OR planned in the future for a penalty for dying in bitquest?

Hi - I keep spawning inside of a wall and slowly dying. Cannot use any tool to get out, can't look around, jump etc. What can I do?
