Notice Regarding Outage & Server Structures

Hey everyone,

The server was down for over an hour, due to an issue with a structure saving plugin we tried running, and then issues with restoring the world map from backups (SSD is probably failing).

At any rate, everything is back up now. However, we did not run the structure saving script by Craftbukkit. Information regarding the script we attempted to run can be found here: http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/psa-mi ... 617/page-3

So, regarding this, if there are any in-game structures that you'd like to keep the functionality of (for example, wither skeletons spawning in Nether fortresses), then please visit these structures before the server updates to 1.7.2.

Thanks!

Just visit them so the Chunks load? Or actually step foot in the realms?

I'd assume just so the chunks load. But if you want to be safe, place a block in the structure, so it forces that chunk to save.

wait, so if you don't visit a build it will reset? Does that include the overworld, or just the nether? If I'm confusing you it's just my stupidity. :D

No. What it means is that naturally generated structures such as dungeons and nether fortresses may not behave in the same way, they may not function as a spawning area for mobs and their mechanics may cease to work.

Could we have an estimated date on when the server will update?
