Bug squashing, new plugins, celebrations and major world developments across Globeworks.

Update

Today has been another massive day of changes on Globeworks, with fixes across multiple systems, new plugins, world updates and a celebration marking almost one month of operation.

Shield Rendering Bug Finally Fixed

One of the most frustrating bugs we have dealt with recently was shields displaying backwards.
This took several hours of debugging and required changes across multiple areas:

  • Server settings
  • Plugin updates
  • Resource pack adjustments
  • Additional testing

It was a complex issue affecting several fronts, but it is now fully resolved.

Resource Pack Loading Issue Fixed

We also fixed a bug where the resource pack on Java would attempt to load multiple times.
This is now sorted and should behave consistently.

Server Memory Tweaks

We made adjustments to server memory allocation to improve stability and reduce spikes.

Plugin Updates and New Additions

Several plugins were updated today, and we introduced multiple new ones.

Fly Countdown Fix

Bedrock players experienced a bug where the fly countdown timer persisted even when disabled.
This is now fixed.

One Time Ticket Scanner Fix

Another improvement was applied to the one time ticket scanner, which should finally resolve the remaining issues.

Nation Command Guard

A brand new Globeworks only plugin has been added: Nation Command Guard.

This plugin allows:

  • Dukes and above to execute commands when someone enters or leaves their town or nation
  • Restriction of specific commands inside towns or nations
  • Better control over non resident behaviour

This adds a powerful new layer of Towny and nation management.

Anti Cheat Tightened

We detected evidence of cheating, so we tightened several anti cheat rules to keep gameplay fair.
If you are using cheats, please do not. It spoils the experience for you and everyone else.

One Month Anniversary Celebration

We now have 81 unique users, and with the one month anniversary approaching on Monday, we held a celebration today in the event area.

The event included:

  • Music
  • Fireworks
  • Speeches from long time players

A huge thank you to everyone who attended.

New Wonder of the World: AtlasCity Portal

A new wonder has successfully passed nomination: The AtlasCity Portal.
This wonder is a natural land formation, not a constructed build, making it a unique addition to the world wonders list.

Town and Nation Statistics

Here is the latest snapshot of the world:

  • Largest town by size: Azzara
  • Largest nation by land area: Imperium Terrae
  • Most populous town: AtlasCity
  • Largest nation population: Meridican Empire
  • Third largest towns: Bern and Chicago
    • Chicago is more built up
    • Bern has a larger population
  • Top three richest players: Maebles, MagicFlyer and LilCesus_1
  • Total towns: 12 plus several outposts
  • Plenty of space remains for founding new towns

Community and Staff

dpembo has been giving new players 'world tours' when they join, helping them settle in.
The staff team has been working diligently, resolving issues quickly and keeping the world running smoothly.

Player Count

We now have 81 unique players, and the community continues to grow every day.

That is everything for today — another huge set of changes, and still more to come.
