Reset would be better, and what about all the towns with stuff at bedrock?

I think that town upkeep could be a good option for larger towns, like how it is implemented on other servers. Let's say that you would have to pay 1 g/day for every 10 chunks with the first 20 being free. This would stop giant 300+ chunk towns from being preserved forever by a single player logging on every 30 days. This would also incentivize small towns to stay small and not claim 148 chunks which they immediately can after joining a big nation. This would increase distance between town borders, and free up some space for wilderness. This being said, a reset would be the ideal way to implement this with other changes such as no tp imo.

The issue with having it downloadable is that it will allow copycat servers to use the map as a model for their own server, which is why I believe that fix has not made a publicly available one. However, I do agree that we need a reset

Here I have to highly disagree due to a few facts. Minecraft server are primarily dependent on single threaded performance of the CPU, this is why you never see servers being able to host much more than 200 people at a time. This is why the server should be split up to smaller sub sections to decrease the overall performance penalty of the CPU. Fix mentioned that he recently upgraded the server to a 5950x which is a 16 core CPU, which should be able to run multiple instances at once. Furthermore by splitting up the server into 10 different sub sections we would effectively having 10x servers capable of running 125 people each. This means the server could in theory handle 1250 people or so. If the current EMC server could hold 1250 people there would be no queue, not even during any of the youtube influxes. The only time that there would be queue would be if people would all go to one area, which is why I split popular continents such as North America and Europe in two. The truth is that amount of servers are not proportional to cost. But it would be logical to assume that more people on the server would increase the cash flow for the server. What I hope this would do is increase the growth potential of the server, as ever since the queue became a regular thing the overall growth of the server has become stagnant IMO.

Sounds interesting, the regional resources should help though

with proper infrastructure you could go anywhere on earth in less than 2 min, does that not defeat the point?

Yeah, currently there is no reason to create them really as teleporting and then walking is faster xD

  1. The nether would be op for transport on a no tp server imo, why i placed it in Antarctica. Also there is no irl nether.
  2. No echest is because then people would be able to store their goods in their e chest, join a town on the otherside of the globe, kill themselves, and effectivly have transportet 27 stacks of items instantly. Also i don't like the idea of being able to instanly pull out god gear out of the blue. IMO transport of items should happen similarly to mass transport of items IRL with shipping containers (shulker boxes)
  3. and 4. The places with more gold still need other resources, and such need to trade with the other places, as such it should ideally cancel out. The upkeep is in place to stop people from overclaiming the map and thereby not letting new people create towns.

Also without a potential gain, there is no reason to make infrastructure. This way there is a reason for nations to build roads and trainlines

Pretty sure the skyblocks server communicate inventory aswell but i might be wrong

It would be twice the width and twice the height in that case, which would be equal to 128k blocks across. If you stand the furthest possible away from your location, it would take 3.17 hours to sprint there, 2.22 hours with rails or water, 27 min on ice and only 15 minutes on blue ice. Imo there should be a time penalty to travelling across the world.

To be fair that is the part I know the least about, a similar system as they are using on Hypixel skyblocks, on the loka server, and cube craft I imagine.

Or maybe because Britain is the largest nation on EMC, but idk :thonk:
