BlockHermit has been operating on minecraft 1.12 past when vanilla minecraft introduced 1.13. Many players have asked how we would update. We did not know what to expect ourselves, as we've had no real information on our end about the update as well.
We have tried to keep the map we've come to know and love into the 1.13 update. But as it is impossible for us to regenerate new biomes around existing builds and with conflicting coding, we regretfully inform that we have decided it is best for player experience to reset the map. We could not work around the changes to the terrain generation or the changes with plugins we consider pivotal to the server.
We will be introducing a refreshed experience for all players. A new map means an entirely fresh terrain to explore. A new setup of the community regions will allow for better and easier access to resources and the resouce world itself.
A central city will replace our current Newtown where players will have access to some basic farms, admin shops, portals to the end and resource world, as well as all the events.
Market will also be within walking distance from central. New player regions will also be adjacent.
We will be reworking some mainframe rules for the server and we will be introducing a new website (still found on blockhermit.com) with a new forum specifically designed to aid you in your gameplay experience. More specifically, we will review all known redstone contraptions to help minimize lag and allow less confusion for players. We want you to have an overall better experience and we hope the reset of map, rules, and community will help.
The current map will be available for download after the reset, so your work is not lost. Alongside the map being allowed to download, we are introducing an Ark for players to deposit some items they may want to bring with them to the new map. We cannot transfer builds and the money system will be replaced. You can request for a spot on the ark on our new forums (found on our website: http://www.blockhermit.com).
Players will be able to /buy diamonds to replace their current currency with diamonds to bring with them to the next map. We encourage that players do this as the bank will be reset. This means no players will take any of their rhines with them to the new map.
We did not make this decision lightly. We appreciate all the time and effort in building and continuing out great community that is BlockHermit. We look forward to seeing all the new builds be built all around the server and hope you will all enjoy the new things to come. Thank you for your understanding in this matter. We hope to continue this community for a long time to come.
