At this point, only temporary bans/mutes/etc (excluding PROXY USAGE, SWITCHING IP ADDRESSES or PUNISHMENT EVADING). will be issued. I understand that this may not be an ideal solution, but as I am working alone, I need more time to accomplish this goal.

Hi everyone!
Recently I've decided to make some changes to my game and this is about the results I've got by the moment.

> Coin System

You can earn coins by simply doing some in-game actions (even just be there!).
5 coins are given to all players (of course not eliminated) in arena every 50 seconds.
Also when you final kill someone there will be +15 coins for you (if you kill leader, you get +25 instead).
When you win a game, you simply get 50 coins.
That's it. Not a very complicated mechanism.

> New rank

I added a new rank named "YOUTUBER" for those, who are recording on this server (In hope that this server's position is about to change in the future).
They are able to use /nick command and have all perks that DONOR rank has.

> Changes in Nickname System

Speaking of nicks, they were adapted for everone's usage.
I added GUI which will provide you through all steps to get you nicked.
The thing that won't change is that only staff ranks and YOUTUBE rank will have access to the feature (maybe DONOR once, paritally).

Below is a short video, presenting the told.

> Added new Cosmetics Category - Shopkeeper Skin

I also added new Cosmetics Type - Shopkeeper Skins.
You can select now one of 15 various effect which will be displayed as your Item Shop or Upgrade NPC skin.

Menu looks like this:

> Minor changes

• Added statistics reset date to the holograms

• Added your rank in Statistics Hologram

• Added 2 Final-kill Effects: Summer Festival & Cat Invasion, preview of those is available in lobbies

• Added lobby Scoreboard that displays basic info

• Fixed some bugs in game

I still have to do a few things and I think update will be released in a week. Available today! Join and test.

That's it for today. See you later!

Hello,
Some things have been changed, however main part of this things are on technical side, so you won't see many of graphical improvements.
Maybe I will manage to finally publish very first version of the Network.

Let's get into it!

> LOBBY & GAME

• Changes
  • Added MongoDB Support
  • Added anit-afk in-game system (kicks for inactivity in 5 seconds)
  • Added health bar for all non-player creatures
  • Added Fishing Rod item to the game (20 Gold)
  • Added Lobby Selector item to switch between lobbies
  • Made possible to add a map to favorites and remove it from its list
  • Made possible to change nickname (for now only for admins)
  • Made possible to increase duration of "Regeneration Effect" by eating more golden apples
  • Made possible to buy sword for teammate or for later to put in a chest
  • Made possible to track the chosen opponent when the gate is opened
  • Made possible to join when arena is starting (on 4v4 and 8v8)
  • Changed Game Server display order by its map name - no chaos from now
  • Changed "Bad Breath" item price from 6 to 8 emeralds
  • Changed "Game End" counter duration on "[L] DUELS" mode to 7:00 (minutes)
  • Changed duration of "Gate Open" counter to 4:00 (for [L] DUELS) and 6:30 (for other gamemodes) (minutes)
  • Changed "bring" to "bring back" word in Clone Voucher description
  • Changed "TNT Friend" Finish Effect displaying style to be quieter
  • Removed shout and team chat for "[L] DUEL" mode
  • Renamed rank [DONATOR] to [DONOR]
  • Left Citizens completely and switched to Custom NPC System

• Bug fixes
  • Fixed some bugs in BungeeCord Support
  • Fixed server disables MongoDB when players are still online (whilst server stopping)
  • Fixed adding/removing permissions not working instantly
  • Fixed that players aren't visible when joining
  • Fixed asynchronous Stats saving
  • Fixed firing Death Effect before player decides to leave

Known issues and short TODO List

• Buggy 1.19 protocol which makes it difficult to play on that specific version (probably something wrong lies in my code) seems now it was just a slow server

• PlayerCount holograms sometimes display wrong numbers or just flicker

• Major bug: corrupted world saving which sometimes causes empty map or improperly loaded chunks
  - My recommendation for now is that just leave from arena and let server reload itself - paritally fixed

• Make game more customizable (add NPC skins to the Cosmetics List)

• Make leveling and experience system (b1.3?)

• Add coin system to the game and make Cosmetics more vaulable by adding price to them (of course coins, don't worry )

• Create a bunch of funny lobby effects you can use when you're waiting for the next game Not now, sorry...

• More hideouts (unique for each map)
• Effect that are only available for players who participate in events (further updates)

Have an idea? Want to share it with me? Post your suggestions here.

Hi, today I want to introduce you to some new changes that I managed to implement into the game a moment ago.
There will be some bug fixes and, most importantly, your new friends who will do most of the work for you - Minions.

> Bug Fixes

• From now on, Faster Clones will no longer fall off the map when they appear close to a wall.

• It is no longer possible to ride an Iron Golem when there is 1 solid block above it. However, if you are already riding it, you will be dismounted to prevent suffocation in the ceiling.
• Improved the ability to jump with an Iron Golem when there is a solid block in front of it.

> New Map

The name of the new map is Aqua Dining.
The map is relatively small, and what sets it apart from others is primarily its enclosed nature. There is a restaurant with tables arranged in various ways. There is slightly more sponge here than in Aim Diamonds or Village, but it doesn't hinder the fun! The entrance gate is located in an orange tunnel.

Personally, it's my second favorite map, right after Aim Diamonds.

Below are a few pictures from this map.

> Additions 

• Added Minions that will allow you to collect sponge in multiple places at the same time.
  
  These Minions come in two types: Sponge and Angry.
  
  The Angry Minion has the ability to fight Faster Clones and collect what they drop. It can also store a larger number of items.
  The Sponge Minion has a smaller backpack and does not fight monsters, which may result in its death. However, when it destroys sponge, Faster Clones do not appear.
  
  Angry Minions will currently cost: 64 Gold.
  Sponge Minions will cost: 64 Iron.
  
  Below, I present their appearance in the item tab and how it functions in practice.

Thank you for reaching the end, take care!
