At 8:00 AM on April 1st, the server will be whitelisted for approximately one hour. During this time, we will be doing several things to prepare for the reset of Skyblock, Survival, and Mineworld/Nether that will be happening on associated servers this evening, as well as the removal of RoyalCommands and installation of EssentialsX. Finally, AcidIsland will be used for the new season of Skyblock, meaning players will be able to sail between each others’ islands to explore!
This will primarily be for pre-generating config files for us to write custom values into in order to give you guys an experience you won’t find anywhere else. However, we’ll also need to do some permissions testing for EssentialsX.
The reset of the four worlds will be taking place tomorrow evening at 9 PM EST. This process should not take more than an hour, however, to be safe and account for any potential unforeseen issues I’ve scheduled a full 1.5 hour block to take care of things. Most of this will be us testing permissions and ensuring you have access to the same things you always have had, but we’ll also be testing some new things we’ll be adding into the soon-to-be-revealed revamped VIP rank!
As a final warning, backpacks WILL be wiped post-reset. Make absolutely sure that you empty your backpacks out, and be prepared to not have a backpack for a short period of time post-reset and post-RoyalCommands. We’re in search for a new backpack plugin, and the one we’re looking at has a lot of nice options but we’re waiting on a few things to line up before we decide to go all in on it. We’re hoping to have that out within the next week.
Thanks for all of your patience and understanding through these events. We’re hoping you’re looking forward to AcidIsland, and the new Survival seasons!
Sincerely,
The Staff of Nerdcrafteria
