As above

These two mods are tiny but add so much essential functionality for multiplay servers.

#

ftb chunks nope

#

essentials

light prawn
#

Is there an alternative, currently, for grief prevention/claiming in the pack?

#

Apologies, new to the pack so unsure re: terminology like "portal method"?

short lark
#

Portal method refers to the vanilla minecraft way of chunk loading

#

Alternatively, you can add these mods to your server and the clients and it will work fine

#

I mean, i'm requesting this more on behalf of my server members than anything, as they pointed out they were uneasy at their being no grief prevention basically, so we added both.

#

Yeah we did, I just see them as two nigh-essential functionalities in MP so thought it might be worth suggesting here.

#

The thing with ftb chunks is that it allows for easy chunk loading which is really cheaty in this pack, and a new way of chunk loading is coming in the future so ftb chunks would just render that useless

#

And second thing is that this pack was made for the SP experience and the MP aspect hasn't been worked on at all yet

rocky solar
#

chunk loading of it can be turned off

#

what happened in rad 1

short lark
#

Yeah, still very easy to turn on again

#

Which is what will happen

rocky solar
#

can be said about any thing added or feature removed/ disabled

rad 2 is very not server balanced or friendly

short lark
#

True

rocky solar
#

I know there are some alternative mods

#

out there

#

that have you pay items to protect chunks

short lark
#

That could be something to look at In the future when the MP balancing starts

#

If it does

RAD 2 is a singleplayer pack first

#

I mean, for what it's worth - I think focusing on the SP experience is valid, but providing the ability for MP servers to run smoothly should be equally valid. I would assume most players are not in single player, but on servers?

#

quite the opposite

and its easy for a server owner to add on own and setup

# rocky solar what happened in rad 1

i might be misrembering but i belive that setting is in the server config which is a non standard file type to the other server configs so it isnt auto copied from the default configs

pure vale
#

going to say it again, way too easy to bypass any types of grief prevention in modded
just don't build at spawn

#

the only thing it helps with grief wise would be creepers in your base... but proper lighting fixes that

#

other than that its not stopping diddly

#

or slowing it down

#

It is nice for the visual of what your chunk loading though
