Hi Guys, Just a quick bit of news, due to neglect of the funpark rides (some need to be restocked etc) and because Willo has been hoping to setup some fun stuff like team fortress and so forth. i've given her extra access in the funpark world.
This only applies in this world to allow her to build more rides and events and fun stuff - so please try not to harass her for items or ranks or anything, as this is not her job. She is just a sort of event coordinator; her job is to make fun stuff for players.
Also, an extra portal (other than the maze reward one) has been added to funpark via the dialable gate network - i think the address is 0000110 on the alpha gate, not sute the numeric coordinates on the beta gates. I'll have to calculate that later.
At the moment the secret gate near citadel is dialed up to there if you want to take a look or give willo any assistance.
Items are not meant to be shared between funpark and other worlds, so keep in mind this is a purely "fun" world not a treasure hunting one. Although any prizes of value can be sold back to the server - if i suddenly find players becoming millionaires again I may turn it off in funpark - so dont abuse that world's sell policy.
Also it is possible items may currently be carried between worlds, due to basic option syncing on particular players - this will not be the case on the next server restart - so dont carry anything of value if you find you can carry between worlds, as you will potentially find that item vanishing when it syncs next and the on world inventory overrides it.
Be sure to congratulate willo for this opportunitiy, as in a smaller way it represents the equivalent on a much smaller scale as the staff ranks on the main worlds.

Gimme a color code; ill pop it into the group header for it on funpark(and brotherhood?). Besides being a unique rank I would think the reaction would be more like 0_o ...is that A.. admin? Or you could send them on a 2 minute vacation in mars /tjail troll mars 2m .. actually dont do that it may be seen as abuse Speaking of which, can you change my colour back to normal? a "Few..." people think ive been demoted for some reason... which is a bit degrading to me

If I wasn't the owner I'd probably be one of them quiet players in a quiet corner building something big and interesting then loose interest! I have been pondering the issue of funpark rides not entirely working due to protected zones - and after my adventure mode experiment I was pondering the possibility of disabling the proected zones and changing funpark into adventure mode as well, that should allow all the machinery and rollercoasters to work as intended minus the expected griefing that the protected zone was created to protect it from. This will still allow architect players to change to mode 1 and repair/build/restock rides as well. BTW - build ideas, how about a massive redstone powered rollercoaster there? There is some already but they are limited. The "train station" could be a starting point for one, that ends at Willows area. But as I suggested, it may work better as adventure mode, as carts seem to play up under protection, and get griefed out of it.

At the moment except for staffed rank players the protected zone prevents spleef working now anyway. exactly what i was thinking.. if you put it on adventure the games that involve breaking or placeing blocks will be un playable If you have your heart set on a spleef game, I could possibly go hunting for a spleef world generator; but to be honest a bunch of floating blocks in the void seems like a pretty retarded game IMO! It would also break the rocket game (which is already broken anyway as both the carts and the tnt are not available to place.) but all the other games should start working better.

Just a quick footnote here - grim found a mode flag can be set in protected zones, so potentially spleef could be made to work. But it would lack a way to regenerate unless he made it a survival game sorta thing - and it seems unstable during memory leak situations.
Possibly we could set a craftbook toggle area, and write protect the area file so changes get lost between toggles... but I expect this would cause a lot of rather disturbing console errors.
