3/04/2019 - 9/2/2019: QuixolMC Changelog #27

Happy monday everyone!

It’s september now, and you know what that means? It’s officially been 6 months since our last changelog post... I don’t even know how it got to be that long, but that’s a crime.

The past 6 months have been kind of off and on for us at QuixolMC. We’ve introduced new build projects, had parties, reached some cool milestones (1337 unique players! woahhhhhhhhhhhhhh), said goodbye to some staff members, updated our rules... A lot’s been going on, but progress on server stuff has been a bit slow.

Hopefully, life has been treating you all well. We’ve been doing alright over here, just taking longer than we’d hope to get our big plans into motion. As you all know, minecraft 1.14 has been out for a while now, but we haven’t updated yet. So, what’s been going on?

Well, we don’t have any news about plans quite yet, but rest assured it’s on our minds. For now, let’s jump into all of the changes that have taken place on QuixolMC over the past half a year.

List of known bugs/issues:

! New players can sometimes get stuck in the beginning room of the tutorial ! Standing still on top of a boat in water will deplete your hunger very quickly for some reason(???) ! The “mobs” section of the statistics counts how many times you’ve been killed by another player for some reason. It will not show how many times you have killed other players, however ! Peculiar bug with items in cursor slot disappearing in the inventory? Has only been reported once; unable to reproduce ! mcMMO: When you are killed by a mob you recently hurt, the death message just says you were killed by [a bunch of hearts] ! mcMMO: You don’t get alchemy exp for making slow falling potions ! mcMMO: mcMMO’s messages, either party messages or about abilities, sometimes send at incorrect times, or even send to incorrect players ! mcMMO: Using /mcrank seems to break for certain players sometimes. After a name change perhaps? Unable to reproduce ! mcMMO: Some players have reported their mcMMO levels being reset/lowered? Has only been reported once; unable to reproduce ! Factions: Certain faction permissions are buggy or not intuitive ! PerWorldInventory: Player inventories saved in 1.11 - 1.12 (in the world Protos) may have shulker box data corrupted. undyed shulker boxes turn into purple shulker boxes, and any items inside shulker boxes may lose all of their NBT data. ! Quickshop: When making a quickshop into a double chest, then breaking it to make two single chests, it still thinks the shop is there, regardless of whether its told to be deleted with commands or manually broken in survival. ! Viaversion: 1.14.4 client may experience “ghost blocks” while mining very quickly, or, more frequently, after explosions occur. This is actually a vanilla bug, but it won’t occur if you’re on the server with a 1.13.2 client. ! Viaversion: 1.14.4 client may crash while typing book. Technically a vanilla bug, but exacerbated by viaversion. See here. ! Viaversion: 1.14.4 client will display all statistics in the “items” and “mobs” sections incorrectly/jumbled. It is an issue on the client-end, the server still tracks player statistics properly ! Viaversion: Bug with infinitely eating potatos/carrots when attempting to replant them

Things to come:

• Update to QuixolMC 1.14.4! • An exciting new build project...! • Releasing more custom advancements • Other updates to QuixolMC’s custom datapack • Fixing more bugs? • Big updates to qChat, other custom scripts

last changelog post (#26)

about changelogs

-----

Whew! For six months, you would think there would have been more changes huh? As we’ve said, it’s been a bit slow-going as far as changes and updates to the server go. Rest assured, we are still moving forward with projects, it’s just been slow due to being as short-staffed as we are currently. You can expect to possibly see some new staff members coming on soon!

Anyhow, to expand upon some of the stuff discussed in this changelog, you may have noticed a great number of bug fixes to factions. Many of these may seem like quite alarming or dangerous exploits, and you’d be right.

All of the faction bugs mentioned for the July 19th changes existed and were known by Quixol staff for a long time; some of them were particularly nasty. We never mentioned them in these changelogs for fear of them being abused.

Now that they are fixed, we don’t have as much reason to worry. Still, we apologize for allowing these to exist on the server for so long. Some of them were out of our control, while others were due to us having factions improperly configured. This shouldn’t happen again. If you notice major bugs or exploits like this, please inform the staff, we’ll do what we can to fix them.

With all that said now, we ask that any faction owners please review your faction permissions with the command /f perms. This will bring up an interactive chest menu which allows you to set permissions for your own faction, both for faction members and for what other players can do on your claimed territory even if they aren’t in your faction.

It’s most crucial that you tweak the default permissions for any non-member players, such as neutral, truce, ally, and enemy. By default, factions will treat the “container” permission as “allow” for all of these relations. For some reason, factions treats modifying armor stands and item frames as a “container” interaction; so if you don’t want people messing with your item frames or armor stands (or possibly other container blocks), you should make sure this permission is set to “deny”. If you have more questions about the faction permissions, feel free to ask, we’ll try to help out if we can.

While we’re on the topic of show-stopping bugs getting fixed, did we mention that the bug of mobs dying on chunk boundaries was finally fixed after nearly half a year? This issue was discovered & documented by admins Vivian and Skyler, and it’s thanks to our thorough testing & bug reports that the issue was ever resolved in the server software itself. If you play on another server that uses Paper, just know that we played a small part in making it less buggy! Oh, we also reported the issue of zombie villagers despawning in the conversion process & got that fixed too. Yay, Quixol admins!

Other than that... Is there anything we forgot about? Huh? Pillage & Village update? Oh yeah, that happened. Still no news for you yet, sorry. You can connect to the server with 1.14.4, though. The server itself is still on 1.13.2, though. Check out this post we made about it for more details.

Anyhow, that should be everything now. Thanks for reading, and hopefully we’ll see you again in 1.14??? - Quixol Staff
