When the "dev world" comes out, what is going to happen? It seems as though this is going to be one of the major changes that the server goes through, but I cannot seem to find much information on the upcoming changes. Is there a link to a page with details about whats going to happen? If not, can a staff member fill us in on whats going to happen?

I remember reading that the current main world will be accessible, yet less significant after the change. I dont understand why the main world will become less significant. Can a staff member clarify why? I just don't like the idea of putting my time and effort into matters in the current world and then having them become useless or less importnat in the future.

i have never heard of a dev world i know the map is being changed when the proxy is set up and some other worlds coming but not this

Ye, not sure if everyone is supposed to know yet, but basically everything is being re-made on the Dev server: spawn, market, vaultworld spawn etc! Then this new world will effectively be turned in to the main world, and I think they will be allowing people to get their towns/builds moved to the new world aswell, although I'm not entirely sure how that's gonna work! :L

As far as i'm concerned, no info is supposed to be let out yet. Sayomie, put me as staff on the DEV. So i know whats going down. The server has a whole new city, and a lot more to come.

Thats all I can really say, no one ever told me I couldn't tell anyone, but i'm going to go on the safe-side and assume that the details are going to be kept on the down-low

-Madster

well maybe the regular minetown members should play it on the safe side too and stop building and producing until we get a sense of whats actually happening...

If there are matters that could piss off the regular members of minetown, could we be informed NOW instead of after we realize we have wasted our time?

Waste your time? On what..?

As far as I have been told, This will be like another main.. The cloud server(server that hooks all the servers together) will allow you to travel through the worlds. The main will still be there. It's just like a new server, like the tekkit, or creative.

So the main that is here now, that everyone plays on, will remain the same.

That is from what I have heard. So don't get your panties in a twist about it <object class="emojione" data="https://resources.enjin.com/1489581540/themes/core/images/emojione/svg/1f61b.svg?0" type="image/svg+xml" standby=":p">:p</object>

waste our time on "building and producing".

Its rather absurd how you find a person reacting this way - with little to no information about the changes - to be "someone getting his panties in a twist".

and if you cant figure out why I could assume that my time producing and building could potentially be wasted when the new world comes out, then think harder.

You're assuming that all your work will be void when the new world comes out because all the focus will be on the new world rather than the old one and you think it would be better to wait until the new world comes out to start any new projects...right? If so then, like I said, I believe I heard that they were going to let people transfer their towns/builds over to the new server when it is released! That is all I have heard and I don't know how it will work or if you need to pay but Madster's underlying point is still valid, there is no need to worry because both worlds will still be in existence and I'm sure in the weeks following the release there will be an effort to sort out any problems that may arise! <object class="emojione" data="https://resources.enjin.com/1489581540/themes/core/images/emojione/svg/1f642.svg?0" type="image/svg+xml" standby=":)">:)</object>

I want you to stop, and think.

What is this? This is minecraft. Not real life. A game, not reality. Your builds won't be wasted. They can be accessed just as easily as they can now, apposed to when that world comes out. So where is the waste? Also, I can see why you would be upset with little information about it. But do you think that sawine is just going to leave the main map aside? If you think that your time building is going to be wasted... Think harder..

Revels got it.(The post above your previous post- but I assume he posted it while you were writing your reply) This is my concern put in general terms. And I was fully aware that we would still have access to our previous buildings.

The details I want to know would be information such as the transferring process.

Will ALL buildings be allowed to be moved?

And revels mentioned the possibility of a fee which would be an obvious reason for people to want to delay their builds.

And if our builds are moved who gets priority to choose where they want their lands moved?

Also, can already spawned mobs be moved to the new world? This matters because of sheep farms at the least. These are some of the questions I can think of for now.

But I assume that you still dont understand what the big deal is if we still have access to our previous builds. However, you are missing the difference of value people put in towards having their builds in "the main" world, and NOT in the main world. Its similar to people liking their buildings to be near spawn even though most, if not all of the practical travelling done is done by warping.

And also, BECAUSE I DONT think sawine and the staff are idiots, I assumed that there must be SIGNIFICANT CHANGES that require the current main world to lose its "main world" status to the newer world. Otherwise, why waste the time and effort put into making the current spawn area? And that is why I am forced to assume many things, including scenarios where members are wasting their time by building and producing in the main world.

And I apologize for the "think harder" comment. That was rather condescending. But regardless, I dont think my worries are unfounded.
