Trade Room Flaw

People can take from the chests in the trade rooms by digging the stone slabs and opening the chests.

This can be fixed by adding either 2 blocks in between the chest and the wall or by putting the chests on the opposite side.

Just thought I would let the people who need to know have the info.

Question:

Why did you post this to the public?



What if there are some tools out there that will steal your stuff now that they know how?
You should have just PM'd Intelli or a different Admin.

Good point, I don't think it's that big of a problem though, most new players that cause trouble don't read the forum
(to my knowledge). Also, considering in order to do this I imagine you would have to be standing in the general trade room with a pickaxe, facing the wall, and your character would appear to be mining a block. So I'd think if anyone tries this they would be caught.

I did test this out as I was going to post this on the fourms but it seems you guys already know about it.

When I tested this out for myself I got caught and kicked by Shamps (thankfully not banned). I had no intention of stealing any items form anyone.

I just wanted to make it clear that I am not that type of player so please don't get the wrong impression of me.

I also found that you can acccess a chest from the next trade room so the above fix would not work.
You would need to move the chest to the opposite side of the room and make each room two blocks wider.

Perhaps combining two trade rooms into one (or three rooms into two) would be the best way to do that, in order to prevent such exploits/glitches without needing to expand the spawn/trade building.
