[Update] Another Network Update

Hello all! Since the last update, I've been hard at work getting some network things in order. If you've been keeping up with the Trello board, you may have noticed some progress, and there's good reason for that. At the moment, a lot of tasks have been moved to complete in terms of the network, and I'd like to inform you of some changes.

First and foremost, Steampunk Skies is now added formally into the network. You can now connect to it using the play.elder-realms.com or play.townykingdoms.com IP address. Write is testing out features and needs players to play on it, so if you have time and are interested, please give it a look.

Second, TownyKingdoms has been updated to 1.14.4, however its whitelist is now on. The main world has been reset, and spawn is in place, as well as some dungeons. If you'd like a sneak peak of sorts, you can check out the Dynmap. The reason for the whitelist is that the server's not quite ready for the soft launch planned for (hopefully) about a month from now, and we don't want to spoil anything too much ahead of time.

Wytherin is also still getting updated, however you can connect to it as it isn't whitelisted. No guarantees that everything you do there will stay, however. There are a few issues that Kitty and I have to work out still, and we'll be keeping you updated on that as well.

Lastly, the Hub is in a bit of a poor state at the moment. There isn't really a spawn there, as you spawn on a platform high above a flat world with some signs on a wall. If you follow those directions, you should be fine, however one thing is not correct. I've added a feature where you can just do, for example, /townykingdoms and you'll switch to Towny Kingdoms. The same goes for Wytherin, Steampunk Skies, and the hub. The commands for each are listed below. I'd like you all to test it out and make sure that you can connect to all the servers using those commands, if not, please let me know and I'll look into it. Otherwise, the old format of /server <serverName> works well, and there's no plans to remove it. I'll also be adding back in the menu for getting around to different servers as well at some point.

Server Commands:
Towny Kingdoms:

  • /tk
  • /townykingdoms
  • /towny
Wytherin:
  • /wytherin
  • /wyther
Steampunk Skies:
  • /skyblock
  • /ss
  • /steampunkskies
Hub:
  • /lobby
  • /hub

So, there's still more work to do ahead of us, but there's been some good progress. As always, I'll keep you all updated here!

-Zack
