    Theoretically, it's not a bad idea. However there are two major holes:
    1. Since it's available to download by all, people can locate ores in a single player, then go do it on Raid.
    2. This isn't as big of a deal, but a 20kx17k map is too large, but it could be just bordered at 12k.

    Oh yeah damn, that's pretty bad actually. :v Can't really think of any way to fix that either.

    I think there's a lot better titles for this post than "Discussion"

    I think there's a lot more useful things to say than this.

    DNA has basically hit the nail on the head - If it is publicly downloadable, players can locate ores, spawners, the 'good' biomes, sea temples, villages, dungeons etc. which can give a huge advantage in the game.

    Descriptive titles are useful.

    what's the difference? there's been a mod called world downloader where you can download chunks of any map by simply walking in it. then you can xray it in single player. my point? people are too lazy for any of that

    Knowing where all of the moosh biomes and water temples are instantly is a big difference.

    World downloader gives you the live chunks at that time - If you download a map, you aren't going to get the bases etc, with world downloader you would - Which you would also get banned for.

    From my experience with world downloader t downloads a 1000x1000 block radius, which is quite much if you are going to look for good biomes, spawners etc. There would be no problem with such a map, people are lazy nowadays and it's obvious when people use it for spawners and ores, however biomes and water temples would be something else, but it's easy to find with world downloader so there should be no problem with this map imo.

    The difference is, we will ban for using world downloader, we wouldn't ban for downloading a public map and finding things that way.

    To be honest, raid with a custom map would be pretty cool. Just that this probably isn't the map for it coz it's public

    To fix people downloading this - simply change all the locations of everything. It's quite easy to remove all ores from the map and randomly re-generate them in the same way as vanilla generates ores. After that, it's just a matter of us cutting and pasting any secret locations to different areas.

    Doing that should be very easy, especially compared to building a huge world from scratch.

    All we really need is something fun on brawl, atm it's extremely boring with koth being the only semi fun thing, we could do many game modes but it's just the point if any of the devs or whoever, would implement it.

    Some game modes that come to mind:
    Maze

    like in the first map of spvp if any of the og's remember that.
    PvP tournaments/brackets (1v1's, 2v2's, team fights, etc.)
    Parkour (long parkour or speedruns for a prize.)
    Sumo - got this from another server, where its either a 1v1 or 2v2 and you have to hit each other off a platform to continue to the next round and so on until you win.

    All I could come up with so far but I think these would really make the server more enjoyable and possibly bring players.
