just an update as wintershot pointed out to me that the enderthermic pump actually loads a 5x5 area of chunks instead of the 2 total chunks that it says it will. so I plan to setup a free lava gen near spawn using a ender tank set to orange/red/orange for anyone to tap into instead of seting up a new pump.
pfff who cares about ppl when we have bees.. bees> people
also witchery yay I'm omw!
ps I's not the actual nether biome, but biomes that act very similar
Another series of server crashes happened just now (mid-day Sunday 21st) . Apparently cause by a mystcraft age that was created. Server is now running with a fair bit of constant lag.
First off, I would like to apologize for the events of today and to anyone who is going to lose progress to a rollback, and to Broonie for having to rollback. I take full responsibility for the events that unfolded. I knew the damage the item could cause and went ahead with it anyway.
Early this morning (US time) Draze was trying to figure out a way to beat nearly infinite water that would not seem to relent. We tried most everything we could think of (Witchery spheres, pumps of all kinds, and sand filling). When none of that prevailed, I made a bottle of elemental fire - aer in an attempt to cakify his problem away. I also made some elemental fire - perditio in case anything were to go wrong- Which these fires have quite a track record of doing.
After informing Draze of the potential disaster, we opted to test on a smaller scale on an island far away from end spawn, where it couldnt spread to anything, and it seemed rather ineffective.
Nonetheless, I broke open the bottle in a small airpocket and Draze and I watched as the fire seemed to be contained by the surrounding water, not cakifying as we had hoped. After 30 or so minutes of nothing, a stumped Draze went to bed, and I went back to my base to get perditio fire. However, as Draze wasn't on, and I hadnt set a warp or waypoint, I wasnt sure where his base was, and went to bed self assured the fire could not get out of its basalty confines.
Then I awoke to a watery grave. An unwitting Draze created a small hole in his basalt cylinder and the cake was let loose, presumable ruining the ocean and spreading onto land and killing biomes for as far as the chunks were loaded.
And that's the story of how I ruined CFUK for a day. Sorry :X
On that note, I would like to move to ban the elemental fires. They're not overly difficult to make, and even in the hands of careful people can easily get out of hand. In the hands of someone with intent to destroy, the result could be much worse.

Was the cake tasty?
P.S heartfelt apology accepted
Have rolled the map back to 20:00 yday.
Not your fault squip, during the lag spikes i ended up busting a hole in the containment, the lag should have been an indicator as to what was going on tbh. Anyway thanks broons and also sorry to anyone who has been affected by the rollback.
As a side note, i have tested this fire in SP. strangely if dirt is near even warded blocks the fire somehow manages to break through so no matter how you try to contain it, it still escapes... At this point due to the issue i would request that all players not use any of the thaum infused fire bottles, at the moment they are just too damned destructive. If it is required in a crafting recipe then fair enough but please do not place them.
Hopefully the modder will see sense and instead of exponential growth, will limit the range of the bottles like the old wrath igniter was limited to affecting only 12 blocks radius.
Not sure if it's just me or if DW20 server is down, but doesn't appear like I can get on. Just getting unable to connects
It's not just you. I've been trying for a couple of hours to no avail. The universe will right itself at some point.
Thanks for the alert, looking now
plz help my direwolf20 pack wont let me on server
but i suspect people will use the nether anyway.
