Long-Awaited Update: Enable PVP!

Another update? Aren't you spoiled!

This one's been a long time coming, and thanks to our glorious leader it's finally a reality: you can now enable PVP in your worlds!

It's very easy to do - just type /options and the toggle will appear at the bottom of the GUI, like so.

​

Of course, since this can only be accessed through options, that means that only map owners are allowed to toggle PVP.

Once it's enabled, anyone in survival mode (which you can enter by typing /mode 0, and exit by typing /mode 1) will be able to get hit. Once you die, you'll be returned to the world's spawn, safe and sound.

The really exciting thing about this update is that it opens up a whole host of new opportunities for Build: not only does it allow you to create your own little minigames on your map, but it also sets the scene for future updates where PVP (and competition in general) might be the focus.

It's important to note that while this is a creative server through and through, having a PVP option does not at all detract from the original philosophy of MinecraftBuild, which is to create what you want and have fun with your friends. If you prefer to make a KitPVP arena or a tricky parkour above a lava pit you can do that; likewise, if you want to build a giant castle in the sky you can do that too.

Couple of other small things: brush radius has been increased from 10 to 30, and starting March 31st we'll be giving 24hr bans to anyone caught griefing.

Hope you all enjoy the update!

Nope, you can't - at the moment it's just PvP. That might change in the future, though, you never know!

 

yeah, it's more of a deterrent because right now if you get griefed we basically say "too bad, it's your fault". I'm hoping to put some more anti-grief measures in place in the future, though.
