1.21.8 and Beta Rebalance

  • Updated the server to 1.21.8
  • Rewrote all of the tutorial books (still need to put this one live)
  • Snitches now look like Sculk Sensors before you disguise them, and have the same radius/sphere shape as Sculk Sensors
  • Potions you brew using TopShelf now have to be aged in a Keg, which is found in the Custom Blocks tab of the Recipe Book. Neerbeer can be brewed by combining a Refined Potion in a Brewing Stand with Wheat and then aging it in a Keg for 0.75 days. Most recipes have not been added yet.
  • Enabled the nether with 1:1, no structures, no netherite
  • Added Rapiers, which have high CPS but lower DPS compared to normal swords
  • Maps are now copied using the Cartography Table, and have the Original/Copy/Copy of a Copy mechanics from Written Books
  • You can only place 50 obsidian every 10 minutes, unless you're in a friendly sanctuary. Meteoric Obsidian bypasses this limit
  • Crops still grow offline, but the growth only gets synced when the crop attempts to grow (sorry)
  • Newfriends get a 2x boost to HiddenOre drops when they first join the server.
  • Reduced coal drop rates for oldfriends
  • Stone reinforcements now take 24 hours to mature. All other reinforcements take 36 hours.
  • Iron trapdoors can no longer be reinforced
  • You can open/close wooden trapdoors even if you do not have permissions on the group they're reinforced on
  • You can open, but not close reinforced fencegates even if you don't have permissions
  • Bastions protect against teleporting into them using chorus fruit
  • Ender chests are enabled for the beta, and for the first week after public release
  • Redid the logic for speedo movement (fun!)
  • Fixed /logout sending you to the lobby
  • Meteors will be announced 97 minutes earlier, on average
  • Added a sound effect and chat message when all of the Vorpal-enchanted items are finsihed being refueled in a meteor
  • Enabled /ctb by default
