<h2>24th April 2022</h2>
|
||
Ineva decided to resign on her moderator rank. The reason was that she got into a trouble with a hacker and she does not want to cause us any damage in case the hacker managed to get to her in-game account.
|
||
|
||
<h2>1st April 2022</h2>
|
||
Happy April Fools! - The server has been updated with some jokes and fun stuff on April 1st for the second year in a row.
|
||
|
||
<h2>11th January 2022</h2>
|
||
We decided that things around countries, which could be bought for money, will be given for free to players who deserve them. Buying them for money is still an option. Only AirSThib did it so far, namely, he bought the permission to declare a country. He deserved it before so I will return him the money.
|
||
|
||
<h2>5th November 2021</h2>
|
||
Peak Empire was created! The president of Peak Empire is AirSThib and the capital city is Prairie Mountains.
|
||
|
||
<h2>10th September 2021</h2>

||
CalebJ:
|
||
There are rumors circulating that there can be consequences to players for revealing elements (secretz) recipes. It is entirely the player's decision if he wants to leak a given recipe or not, and there will be no punishment if he decides to do this. There is nothing in the rules that forbids recipe-leaking, and we have never punished players for this, though it has been discouraged. Staffers should not discourage such leaking anymore, but other players can at will.
|
||
<p>
|
||
It is also said that recipes may be changed if they are leaked. This is partly true, because it is my job to fix bugs in the elements mod, and if I find bugs or inconsistencies due to being reported them by the players, and they involve changing recipes, then I guess the statement applies. However, we will never change a recipe for the sole reason that it was leaked, and we have never done this before: each recipe change has a distinct reason, either preserving balance or fixing some inconsistency. Hopefully, recipes will not have to be changed much anymore.
|
||
|
||
<h2>13th July 2021</h2>
|
||
The quarrel regarding elements is now commented also and it lies on the same page as the previous quarrel.
|
||
|

<h2>12th July 2021</h2>
|
||
<a href="1p.html">The process about onePlayer is now public.</a><br>
|
||
Hume2: I added a page where I commented some posts in the quarrel about Tree Hut Contest. It shall serve to the players to learn something about leading a constructive debate because we don't want more such quarrels to happen. <a href="quarrels.html">It is available here.</a> There was another quarrel regarding elements and it will be commented soon.
|
||
|
||
<h2>4th July 2021</h2>
|
||
<p>Hume2: I would like to apologise you all for not handling the incident around our moderator onePlayer earlier. My reasoning was that the problems were trivial and most likely made up because I was receiving only partial and vague information about that. That was my mistake and I apologise for that. Now we hopefully resolved the incident. From our previous experience, it turned out that onePlayer listened our warnings, so we will rely on that again. If you find anything wrong, don't hesitate to report it as soon as possible. We hope that there will be peace in the community again.

Car designs now vary according to player's skin. Most of them were matched algorithmically, so if you find a design which matches better or you just want to use a different car, make a merge request <a href="https://gitlab.com/tunnelers-abyss/driftcar/-/tree/h2mm">here</a>.

<h2>10th June 2021</h2>

<p>Congratulations to all players and staffers on the 2nd year Anniversary of Tunnelers' Abyss! The server will be exactly 2 years old around 08:00 UTC.

<h2>4th May 2021</h2>

Welcome Ineva as a new Moderator of Tunnelers' Abyss!
|

|

<h2>28th April 2021</h2>
|
||
The server is on again! The original map was preserved.
|
||
|
||
<h2>25th April 2021</h2>
|
||
<p>The server is unfortunately again in maintenance. Minesweeper is now running thanks to Hume2, until we are back. Please read the poster at the Minesweeper Spawn for more information.

Now seriously about city builder contest:<br>
|
||
1st: CalebJ<br>
|
||
2nd: BernieB<br>
|
||
3rd: JacObi
|
||
<p>The winners have the right to create their own contry. Information about countries can be found in the ministry of towns at Spawn.
|
||
|
||
<h2>1st April 2021 (April Fools)</h2>
|
||
<p>
|
||
City builder contest ended today. It turns out that the points aren't a good criterium to evaluate the quality of cities, because there many other things which the point system can't rate well enough. Therefore I decided to rate the cities based on other criteria. The winners are:
|
||
<br>
|
||
1st: Hume2 because he did a huge improovement of AndreasBader's city<br>
|
||
2nd: CalebJ not for building a cool city, but for maintaining a lot of mods with such huge responsibility<br>
|
||
3rd: Coram because he is our friend and helps us to maintain the server
|
||
<p>Because we are low on money, the winners will get no reward. The participation in the contest was the best reward after all.
|
||
|
||
<h2>22th March 2021</h2>

|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>New and improved draconis mod
|
||
<li>A custom sound pack for the server
|
||
<li>Added an “Encyclopedia”, to put manuscripts into

|
||
The new paleotest (bring extinct animals back to life!) is now live on the server, with customizations for Tunnelers' Abyss! Thanks to ElCeejo for making the mod and helping with optimization. Also, there are many improvements to our mobs with this update.
|
||
<p>
|
||
Also, the server had a new record for players today - 26/30! Most of them were celebrating Hume2 :D
|
||
|
||
<h2>15th October 2020</h2>
|
||
<p>
|
||
<b>SECRETZ REDO</b> milestone has been finished and is now live! What this has added (the most important things, that is):
|
||
<p>
|
||
First and foremost, a new version of secretz (aka elements). This includes two new machines, the Isotope Separator and the Decay Accelerator. Isotopes and nuclear decay (in some cases) have been added for all elements, and also better material reduction for in-game items + many other minor additions and changes.
|
||
<p>
|
||
A working first version of weather on Tunnelers' Abyss is now active. Although there are no particles, there is proper light changes, sounds for rain, thunder and wind, and many types of clouds and weather including frozen clouds.
|
||
<p>
|
||
Eating particles are now driven by some of the code in bosapara's mod, on_eat.
|
||
<p>
|
||
The missions mod has been removed.
|
||
<p>
|
||
A small texture update has been made, mostly small improvements (to flowers and ore blocks mostly) and reducing file sizes.
|
||
<p>
|
||
Enjoy the update, and feel free to report bugs in #dev or at our Issue Tracker. Our next milestone will likely focus on immersiveness, including improved mobs & mob spawning, and Sound Redo.

<h2>6th October 2020</h2>
|
||
News were not updated for a long time because of procrastination. We are sorry for this.
|
||
|
||
<h2>3rd October 2020</h2>
|
||
A few pages were added and updated by sivarajan, namely digiline tutorial and train historry. We added more explanation to the railway styleguide.
|
||
|
||
<h2>27th September 2020</h2>
|
||
LZB has been fixed. Trains are working smoothly again.
|
||
|
||
<h2>5th September 2020</h2>
|
||
We added signs for regulating maximum train speed on track. We also tried to update advtrains in order to fix LZB but it did not work.
|
||
|
||
<h2>18th July 2020</h2>
|
||
At (508, 6, -1023), we are starting a monument. There is a space 10×10. Build anything you want (as long as it doesn't violate the server rules) and do not destroy anything that has been already built. Have fun!
|
||
|
||
<h2>16th July 2020</h2>
|
||
Speed of trans was increased! Yellow shuttles now ride at 120 km/h and express trains ride at 160 km/h.
|
||
|

|
||

<h2>23th April 2020</h2>
|
||
The griefers have been network banned (thanks to flux's verbana mod), and the server is on the road to recovery. Already new players will get interact once again upon restart!
|
||
|
||
<h2>22th April 2020</h2>
|
||
Today, a horrible thing happened. Spawn was lava griefed ruthlessly, by a mastermind griefing group of over 15 players. All were permabanned. Also, spawn's air was protected so this can never happen again. Be aware, griefers are on the server and everyone can pitch in to stop them. For now, one complex has been eliminated! Thanks to everyone who helped clean Spawn up also.
|
||
|

<h2>18th April 2020</h2>

<h2>5th April 2020</h2>

||
Today is the server's 300th day of runtime! Congratulations! All settime privs will be revoked and day button removed. Hope you crafted goggles - else, enjoy the beautiful night!
|
||
|
||
<h2>3th April 2020</h2>
|
||
The longtime day/night system of Tunnelers' Abyss will be changed dramatically. The night will become brighter so people who appreciate the night can walk around in it without not being able to see where they are going - and night vision goggles will make the nights bright for people who don't care for low lighting. The goggles will be added now (fully functional) so that people can get ready for when instant daytime is removed. On the 300th day of the server, coming up soon, the day button at spawn will be removed and all settime privs will be revoked, and finally Tunnelers' Abyss will have proper day/night ratio.
|
||
|
||
<h2>24th March 2020</h2>
|
||
<p>A new tutorial for our Biomes has been created <a href="tutorials/biomes.html">here</a> that will be driven by the community. Here's how you can help find all the biomes:
|
||
1. Take a screenshot of the biome that is descriptive of the biome and is natural/natural-looking.
|
||
2. Submit the screenshot in #dev with a name you'd like to call the biome. Inappropriate or overly non-descriptive names will be discarded.
|
||
<p>What I will do then, is this:
|
||
<br>Find the number of tree species that spawn in that biome, mobs, other special things, and potentially (if an underground biome), which ores are more likely to occur there. Then I will make a brief description of what the biome has to offer and put your newly discovered biome on the webpage. Whoever contributed the biome will be named in the biome description as "Contributed by <name>" or "Discovered by <name>" if the biome is rarer/unique. The hope is that all biomes can be found and all features of each biome can be finally figured out. Good luck!
