DEVELOPER LOG | 2017-07-16


We recently made a bunch of updates, which ranked players definitely noticed, and everyone else probably heard about ranked players talking about them! So let's go over the changes over the past couple of days.

Remember: these developer logs only show what we have recently implemented and not what we've been secretly working on behind the scenes. There's super awesome content being formed with magic wands for this Summer, so prepare yourselves!

Chat Filter
  • The filter no longer notifies the user that their message was blocked.
  • Instead, it now hides the message from all other users, but continues showing it to the sender.
  • We have also vastly increased the number of words that the filter blocks.
  • We hope that this change will prevent users from intentionally trying to bypass the chat filter.
Creative
  • "/plot info" would crash clients if tons of people were added to a single plot. Now, the command truncates the number of players listed to 30.
  • Added a way for moderators to fix players who may have bugged speed or crash on login.
  • Changed the global chat command "/g <message>" to instead use "!<message>".
  • EDIT (2017-07-17)
    • Wooden doors, buttons, and pressure plates are now interactable
      • This decision was made because they were all previously "bypassable". Doors through speed effect+lag, buttons with bow/arrow, and pressure plates with items.
      • Because they were bypassable, instead of trying to negate the bypass, we decided to make them available for everyone to use.
  • EDIT (2017-07-17 - @Unstitched)
    • [BUG FIX] /rp admin and /rp moderate commands should now be usable.
    • [BUG FIX] The number displayed as your home set was previously 1 number too low and thus not the actual home number changed. This has been resolved.
Network Wide
  • "/friend list" now works every time! It is also now sorted properly :)
  • Friends commands used to be case sensitive for some reason, not anymore!
  • Added a new command for premium users: "/joinbeta"!
    • Used for joining games that are not ready for a full release
    • Games will come out for ELITEs first, then for VIPs later
  • In order to comply to be more in-line with Mojang's EULA, we now require premium IPs for ranked players to connect to the server.
    • VIPs must now connect through vip.mcpz.net
    • ELITEs must now connect through elite.mcpz.net
    • Don't worry, you'll still be able to play with your friends, even if you have different ranks!
    • This was added in order to make sure that Elite Survival and Beta Testing servers are as EULA compliant as possible.
You may have noticed that the last two features in the network-wide section talk about beta testing. That's because we have a couple games that are almost ready, and we are getting ready to let our ranked players test them out! Stay tuned for the next few days to find out what's new.

Party on, dudes ;)

About the chat filter, will it block words like cockpit? (Where the pilots are in the plane)

Seriously though... there wasn't a filter last time I checked a few days ago.

(read bold and underlined)
If you tried to say a word that was on the filter, you'd still be able to see it but other's can't. I wouldn't advise trying to bypass the filter or saying words that are on it though.
