Fixes Requested for Anarchy Realm
Hello!
The crew on Anarchy has a few concerns that needed to be properly voiced. Anarchy isn't Mana's most populated realm, but I think it deserves some attention. Many of these issues have an impact on gameplay, and while an issue may seem insignificant, in the grand scheme of how Anarchy plays, these issues can deter people from continuing on this realm.Hello!
World Bugs
-Issues with animal spawning/behaviors-Bee hives cannot be moved with bees inside, bees do not breed
-Chickens follow a pattern of grouping into one area, causing death for chicks from entity cramming when throwing eggs
-Animal spawnrate is drastically low in the peremiter of spawn, discouraging new players
-Animal spawnrate is still very low outside of spawn, making it extremely difficult to find specific mobs
-Boats are difficult to place on land, making movement of mobs difficult in an already difficult setting
-Villagers cannot breed
-Withers are docile (Withers are a crucial part to most anarchy servers, assisting in larger scale griefs)
-Issues with items and the environment
-Elytras tend to freeze midair, often killing players (even those without nontraditional clients)
-Ghost blocks happen extremely often
-Hoppers have issues functioning properly
-Certain bows do not function and will not fire arrows- but an arrow will be consumed regardless
-Skeleton spawners do not drop bows
-Banner creation does not work (
-Never rains
-Soulsand water pillars and E-Pearl stasis do not work
-Treasure maps do not work
-Sticky pistons despawn frequently if used with slime blocks
-Combat logging does not work
Server Bugs
-Iteming a stack of items will cause a crash in most cases, sometimes for other players. This can be used maliciously. (Here is an image of the crash code, taken from my account and referencing another player- ) **SERIOUS ISSUE**
-Glows turn white after a certain amount of time or after leaving and returning to Anarchy
-Artmap is offered as an option within Anarchy, although it is not accessible (error in applying ArtMap perk to Anarchy, despite Anarchy supposedly being completely vanilla?)
-/cubitshop should add gifting for chat colors and glows, and possibly more cosmetic items to help increase the revenue generated from Anarchy (in honesty, /cubitshop needs a revamp here)
-Anarchy has very little representation- perhaps adding Anarchy as an NPC connection at /hub would help
-Emojis do not work properly in chat
The Anarchy realm has always had the potential to become a popular side of Manacube, while also bringing in revenue for the server. If utilized correctly, and advertised and incentivized properly, I truly do believe the play count for Anarchy would increase. There are many Minecraft players who are interested in playing on an Anarchy style server (look at 2b2t and how much traffic they generate), but only if it is properly maintained. Anarchy is the easiest realm to manage in Manacube, but does need some (well deserved) TLC in order to keep players invested. We are aware that not all of these issues may be fixable, but we believe that a good bit could be investigated and solved fairly quickly.
Despite not having a constant high player count, the players that do play regularly on Anarchy spend a LOT of time doing so. At the time of writing this, some playtimes were:
- _TheNightFox_: 55.38 days
- Anukranan: 3d14h21m
- Cheesi: 11d11h34m
- HereticAngel: 17d2h6m
- lafia8: 2d19h37m
- amucookie: 26d8h31m
I've brought a fair amount of people onto the Anarchy server in the past few days, and a lot of them have been sticking around to play as well. Please consider looking into some of these issues for us, it would mean a lot to both the veteran players and those trying it out for the first time.
Thanks!
