1. Does this mean the realm gets literally copied pasted into the new world or will you just get the realm with the same coordinates in the new world?
2. If the realm gets copied, does this include chests and their contents?
3. If your realm happens to be placed right next to a lava pool in the new world, is it possible you'll be in trouble? :p
4. Will players get to keep their realm credits and items they have on them (will playerdata get reset)?
5. If playerdata does not get reset, is it possible you'll end up spawning in a mountain that didn't exist on the old world and dieing?
As per the discussion in game a few minutes ago...
1) Yes.
2) Yes.
3) Maybe?
4) Yes and maybe. RC will transfer but Intelli was unsure about player inventories.
5) I don't know. Better be safe and log out in one of your realms before it happens.
Notch has said for 1.8 he has pretty much redone his world generator in such a way that its not going to be creating the same worlds as before with the same seeds. Knowing this:
So I'm confused - first the 1st question was an if/or question.
Are you saying you will copy 100% of all purchased realms from old instance to new instance? Isn't that going to cause some strange world dynamics. Its fine for the people who have built walls around their realms, but some people purchased realms and built things in harmony with and for the view of the surrounding environment.
