It's early in the month, but some tuning to Race Away has been done! The in-game positions display will now feature the progression of the runners in increments of 500 metres, so everyone can get a better idea on how things are going. On death, temporarily, the top position of that runner will be used instead. The network-wide chat announcements remain at 5000 metres increments. The amount of hostile mobs that spawn has been lowered by 25% as the large number was actually causing lag bo ...
I'm introducing today a small feature to help you navigate the various worlds: the /pos command! Used as-is, this displays your current position along with the cardinal direction you're looking at. You can also use /pos on to have a display that auto-updates as you move around; it will fade out after a few seconds of staying put. To completely turn it off, use /pos off. This is available for both Java and Bedrock players and is a lighter alternative to the full debug screen, some c ...
You're playing through the science areas, collecting items, storing them carefully, but you have a creeping thought in your mind: "Did I skip something by mistake?" Thanks to StTheo, we now have a solution for all the collectors out there! As you might know, you can visit the Cavern of Science, under the Creeper Citadel, to see the full list of items that can be obtained. As of today, you can bring a shulker box and sheets of paper to the cavern, tap the box against one of the chests, a ...
A common complaint from new players is the difficulty of locating new building grounds in Laurasia. Sure, there is plenty of land available, but finding your way when you're a new beginner is more difficult. To help with this, we're adding today on Laurasia two new Nether lines dedicated to beginners. Reachable directly from the spawn platform, or the basement of Grand Central Station, these two let people get to a nice variety of untouched biomes. Each destination can be reached i ...

Our official resource pack has been updated with a small quality-of-life change: items with high enchantments and potion levels will now display their power level in roman numerals like all others instead of falling back to decimal numbers. Go download the new version now! This trick only works for Java players, but the display for Bedrock players looks better by default already, so you're set. Thanks to Twixxi for the improvement and Sphenicus for the pack update!
"Anyone in Requiem?" "Is anyone in Asphodel?" These are common questions that you might see (or ask!) during Events Nights. For your convenience, you can now try the new /anyone command! It will tell you the amount of players present in each science region and challenge area. This updates in real-time and gives you a chance to check before you travel to your destination. Note that, all of the regions being located in Laurasia, this command will only work when used on that server.

A set of improvements that I've been developing for several weeks to increase the performance of the servers is now ready and live! With this new model, the game servers that don't have any active players will automatically turn themselves off after a while. They are set to come back online on their own when you want to access them; in that case, you will see a notification telling you that the world you have selected is currently being prepared. Once ready, you will be moved over. ...

This event is hosted by ~Offbrand_Neo. Rules The theme of this contest is to create a mid-20th century European town or city, although departures from that are allowed. Quoting Neo: "People can be judged on several factors. In the case of a store or housing area, usefulness and creativity. In the case of a ...

Don't worry, though - this is still the same tool as before, with all the features you've come to love! Notably, this fixes the issue of the endlessly reloading map after a server restart! Related, Laurasia's map display has been wiped and is currently regenerating. Depending on how fast this run ...

As an extra incentive, event runners are also eligible for their own rewards if they choose to claim it! You can ch ...

Minecraft 1.17 has been released today, and it's time for us to prepare for the update too! The network has been updated to accept connections from 1.17, so you can continue to play with us right away. However, this isn't the actual upgrade to 1.17 yet. All servers are still running 1.16.5, this change is simply to let you join without problems. Java players, I recommend sticking with 1.16.4 or 1.16.5 for the best experience. Bedrock players, you will need to update to 1.17 to be a ...

Something that had to be sacrified for the sake for 1.17 compatibility was quickly noticed by many: the full list of players was no longer shown on pressing tab. Worry no more, as it is back!

The yellow number indicates the ping of each person, giving them a clue to the quality of their connection. Newly added is a clock set to the server's timezone (Eastern time); ...
