The next update will be available on Wednesday, December 18, in the early evening (GMT+1).

This update will not yet replace the Java version, instead it is the actual content update. We'll provide more information about the transition together with the update.

  • Craftable Land Claim Papers/Currency/Player-owned Shops/Vendors

    The new area protection is a bit clunky and requires an admin to establish new areas for multiplayer servers, which is quite cumbersome and not conducive to new players being able to join quickly.


    Here's my idea: Craftable land claim papers


    Maybe players start with a handful at the beginning, and it could be somewhat resource intensive to craft new ones. Maybe requiring gold ingots or some other things to be able to craft.


    Land claim papers would allow players to claim a section of land and set their own permissions for it (i.e. Visitors, Building Permissions, etc.). Multiple land claim papers could be used together to claim a larger parcel of land.


    Maybe even have it in such a way that players could rent out one or more sections of their land claims to other players for shops, apartments, etc.


    Of course that would require some sort of currency system, which I would also like to see in Rising World so that there could be more of an economy to keep servers more active.


    Along with that, some kind of shop/player-owned vendor system for a complete player-operated economy. I personally prefer this over NPC vendors that randomly spawn. One of the things that makes Rising World so unique is that the world is completely player built, and thus, the economy should be completely player dependent too.

    Here is a tavern I've been working on and blueprinted into the new demo world. It's on the Green Valleys Test Server if you want to walk around it. :D


  • Iron availability on servers

    Quote from red51

    There is unfortunately no setting for this, but there is a hack to place it manually in creative mode: While a sapling is equipped (I know this sounds strange), type "id ironore" into console to turn it into iron ore (the same works for regular rocks tool by typing "id rock") ;)

    Awesome, thanks!

  • Iron availability on servers

    I know the current world is just temporary until world generation is implemented, but is there a way to spawn in more iron rocks for multiplayer servers? I don't see it in the terrain tools and not sure if there's an object name for them so admins can place them.


    On another note, I'm assuming iron and other ores will be back in the ground again when world gen works?

  • Multiplayer server connection issues

    I found the issue with my server, and yes mine is a Windows server. I had an extra e on a "false" on one line of the default permissions and it was preventing me from connecting. I can connect fine to my Green Valleys server now.

  • Multiplayer server connection issues

    Hmm... which mac OS version do you use exactly? Maybe you could send a report when this happens. To do that, try to join a server which triggers this message, then type "report" into console and send the report.


    If you try to join your own server, it could be extremely helpful if you could also send us a log of the server as well (which covers the moment you tried to join on a Mac) :)

    I have 11.6 Big Sur, maybe I should try updated to Monterrey and see if that fixes it. I sent a report when trying to connect to my server. The servers that it gets the error message on the loading stops at 5%.


    On my server console it doesn't even register that I tried to connect.

  • Permission Settings

    Hi red51 or anyone else who might know,


    Can we get a full list with descriptions of what all the settings for permissions do?


    It seems there are a lot more options than the java version and I want to be able to set it up similarly to the default settings in the java version for multiplayer servers so its not so chaotic i.e. people flying around killing others when that should be disabled by default. And it seems a lot of creative mode things can be disabled now that crafting is introduced, so which ones can be safely disabled without interfering with current gameplay?


    Thanks!

  • Upcoming Multiplayer Update

    Is it possible to disable PvP? I'm not seeing an option for it and its been chaos on my server so far...


    There also seems to be an issue with not being able to use backspace in chat most of the time.

  • Poll: Ability to change block shapes or separate items?

    Quote from Only1Gopher

    ^ ^ This would be cool, but wouldn't it get very tedious very quickly at some point?
    In the end, the developers are the ones who make the final decision.

    It could just be quick, like if you have the tool you can choose the shape of block to place. Not a tedious process to shape every block by actually having to hit it to shape it...


    And if tools have decay/finite uses now, it could open up a market for blacksmiths or whoever to have to produce tools for people to use.

  • Status Update: Items, Weather and a Survey

    Its looking awesome!


    I would love to see player-owned vendors that they have to stock with items for sell/buy so that there is more of an economy, especially as cooking/baking and other items are added. That way players could role-play more, such as create a village where one player owns a bakery, another a blacksmith, etc.


    I would also love to see a native land claim system similar to yahgiggle's WorldProtection plugin that allows players to claim chunks of land for protection without needing an admin. I'm worried about if the plugin will be compatible with the new game version since it is integral to the functioning of my server.
