Talk:It's a hARDA world LOTR Server/@comment-25612015-20170220194615/@comment-25612015-20170221130435

3) Couldn't join.

'''I think I fixed it. Make another try please.''' And sorry for the disappointment!

To 0): How do you get pacifist (beginner) in the first place, or are you just a normal faction member then?

As said above:

''I plan to add signs in each faction spawn in order for players to follow the Pacifist path, though they will have to equilibrate their biases (any negative alignment) first if they don't want to revert to Commoner status. ''

To 1): If someone doesn't want to join or delay it for some time, the secret message every hour might get a bit annoying after a while

Yes. I know. I'll think about some way to do it...

To 2): sooner or later someone will stumble upon it by accident or someone would leak the information.

The only consequence would be the ability for Pacifists below 50 general alignment to become Brothers of Kalma.

Am I allowed to post a picture or would that spoil the surprise?

I leave the decision to you :-)

''The building was banner-protected, but I could access everything (even destroy blocks). Is it intended like that?''

Yes. You need at least +50 alignment with Hobbits and, anyway, the building is now in my list of periodically restored builds.

To 3): I clicked the sign, nothing happened. Not even at the next promotion run. Must be buggy somehow. 

The LOTR mod does something peculiar with the naming of its dimension. From Bukkit plugins, both Middle-Earth and Utumno appear as "world" just like the Overworld.

The ServerSigns plugin is fooled by this. When you create signs in the Middle-Earth dimension, it registers them in the Overworld. I had forgotten about this. After that, when you click on a sign, it doesn't find it...

A long time ago, I found a syntax to correct this which I used for the Utumno safe descent sign. I modified the config to use it. I hope this will work.

To 4): Something completely different: The 1:1 map of hARDA is no longer active? I liked it, even though it was quite outdated. Is there a chance to get it back and updated by a script? 

It was so huge (> 700 GB) that I placed it on another server, which I do not rent anymore. The mapping software was limited to version beta 24.4 of the mod. We have an ongoing effort with Samwise to update it to beta 31.2. Now that we destroyed more than 99% of the world, it will take a lot less space. So, depending on Sam progress, it could be back soon.
