1. try `/bir list` or `/iir list` 2. that should already be printed to the server-debug.txt and client-debug.txt Is there a way to reproduce this?

I'll add a config option "selectedBlockOutline" that you can disable to see if that is the cause.

It was using the invisible reCaptcha, i now changed it to reCaptcha v2. Lets see if that helps. It might not be automated bots but actual humans creating these accounts, though.

Sure can do, I submitted the form, thanks for the tip

Members can now post again.

Dear Players v1.16.5-rc.1, a unstable release, can now be downloaded through the account manager. Been a month since I last posted so it's about time for an update. Here's whats happened so far. 1.16.5-rc.1 minor game update This update brings a few essential bugfixes, as an unstable release to be on the safe side. Should become stable in a few days. I feel 99% certain this will be the last 1.16.x update. Ukraine Charity From the 27th until the 6th of March we have donated 100% of our revenue to humanitarian aid for Ukraine, amounting to over 5000 Eur. We have seen increased sales during that time period - thank you everyone for participating! Vintagehosting update As of yesterday, our Vintagehosting servers now allow a maximum player count of 8 players at no additional cost (previously 5 was the limit). Existing server owners may need to restart their game server for changes to take effect. 2022 Feature Trailer Additions Currently we are focused on creating a new, 3 minute long main game trailer. In the process we add new visual effects and small details to help visualize the games mechanics and in-game experience. Most of them will become a permanent part of the game in the next main update. I've posted several of this changes on our Discord. Here's a few of them Player and Creature frost overlay. Freezing players will look frosted and have a freezing animation. You'll be able to sit down on a block edge Improved Lava visuals Layered gravel (from panning), Sea shells and loose stones will be submersible. Added flowering lily variant Upcoming Updates Beyond the aforementioned visual updates, the topic of 1.17 is "De-Jank". This means we'd like to improve some of the existing game mechanics and finish some of the currently incomplete ones. I don't want to go into specifics but I do can reveal some broad de-janks topics which we plan to work on, which are: Armor system, Immersive First Person Mode, Seraph Voices, Mouse/Keyboard controls, Prospecting, Meal cooking. Once the game trailer and 1.17 is complete, we'd like to finally make major advances around the games lore in 1.18. This will include lots of new ruins and ruin contents. We've also been working on a long term plan for a full story arch with different endings, all of them majorly affecting game play in a certain way, which is something I'm personally very excited about. I do hope we can add it all this decade still Till next time! 1.16.5-rc.1 Game updates Fixed: Should fix some fruit trees never fruiting Fixed: Fruit trees harvestable multiple times Fixed: Worldedit import tool "Replace all" mode did not replace air Fixed: Game crashing when it cannot log to file Fixed: Dressing/Undressing backpacks sometimes not showing the backpack visually on the player Fixed: White storm dust particles that are not supposed to be there Fixed: Oversized poults Fixed: Breaking Ladder did not cascade break the entire stack Fixed: Infinite liquid drinking dupe bug Fixed: Able to add crust on baked pies Fixed: Not able to place filled jugs and bowls Fixed: Itemstack tooltip box some title text got linebreaked unecessarily Fixed: Should fix a rare crash with beds.

Registering an account was already a requirement, invisible captcha was also enabled, i think this one - https://developers.google.com/recaptcha/docs/invisible

I'll enable non buyer posting again in a week or two, lets see if the spam botting has died down by then

k k, will disable non buyer posting

Yea, if it gets too bad i'll add more restrictions.

Just to be clear, we checked with the charity that the money is used for humatarian aid, not for weapons (or monetary transfers): I'll add that to the banner for clarification. Beyond that, my stance is pretty much what @junawood already wrote.

oh, thats definitely a viable option

Oh, it was the intention of those being a temporary healing item.

yea that loss is unfortunate. Perhaps we can get it back somehow.

Dear Homesteaders v1.16.4-rc.3, a unstable release, can now be downloaded through the account manager.

It uses the same scaling as for other mobs, server config value "spawnCapPlayerScaling", which is 75% by default. So 1 player = 100%, 2 player = 175%, 3 player = 250%, etc.

Dear Homesteaders v1.16.4-rc.2, a unstable release, can now be downloaded through the account manager. We did some thorough playtesting and found several spots where the game felt unbalanced. So this minor update will grow into a somewhat larger balancing patch. I'm sure many of you will be happy with those changes For our Vintagehosting customers: This update also adds the ability to force stop a unresponsive server. If you do have an unresponsive server on occasion, please make sure to update to version 1.16.3 or newer.
