We have migrated to PaperSpigot

[Cryptite]

Which is what? In short, it's another version of Spigot that adds a lot of performance tweaks and optimizations that both change some behaviors to more closely mirror vanilla behaviors. It also allows customizing a lot of little things like showing the End Title, for example.

This is a bit of a bleeding-edge update, but with the performance problems we've been having lately when we have 15+ players on, the move was a bit expedited.

For the most part, you guys shouldn't see any real major gameplay changes on your end, but

• Explosions have been 'optimized'
• Chests no longer "look for cats" and they should no longer block opening chests.
• We tick containers less frequently. Watch that your inventories aren't buggy, if so, please speak up.
• Mob spawning has been tweaked a bit, see if you notice anything wrong, but it shouldn't be worse.
• Items on the ground will merge from a farther distance than they used to.

That's roughly it. Keep an eye out, but mostly, hopefully enjoy some increased performance. As always, please report anything you find; we'll be watching like a hawk!

Go Forth!

Before, connecting to loka took me about 20-40 seconds, in the generating terrain screen
Now, it connects instantly

Before, it was lagging all the time and i could hardly do anything, even with just me on
Now, everything is so fluid, and perfect

MANY THANKS FOR FIXING LOKA FOR ME!

It took me up to 5 minutes to login and when I did it would either time me out, moved and it would teleport me back, or take damage from unknown entities...

Now I'm able to MOVE and get what I need done!


Thank you very much!!!

I feel bad that I didn't post about this problem earlier. I found myself nearly unable to play after the 1.9 update as everything was incredibly laggy. I'm rather excited to log in and see the difference PaperSpigot has made.
