It's about time Skyblock got this announcement! For the past month, we have been hard at work vastly updating hundreds of plugins which make up our Skyblock server. Skyblock is finally launching into the future with a massively updated 1.18 backend, bringing forwards hundreds of new blocks, features, mobs and mechanics. Along with this update comes an overhauled shop, ensuring everything is accessible to players!

This upcoming season of Skyblock will be launching this upcoming weekend at exactly: Friday 5th August 3pm MST.

Massively Updated Backend (1.18)
Previously our Skyblock server had been running on 1.12 (which is now over 5 years old!). For the first time in many many years, Minecraft Central's Skyblock server will be updated and running one of the latest and greatest Minecraft versions! Moving forward, we plan to keep our Skyblock up to date with the latest version so that players can enjoy and use all of the features the game has to offer. This update alone brings hundreds of new features into the server which i'm sure you're all familiar with! We are extremely excited to take this step into the future, and look forward to seeing everyone play with these new mechanics which have been added.

Updated 1.18 Shop:
Of course updating from 1.12 to 1.18 means many new blocks and items have been added to Minecraft. Naturally in Skyblock, many of these items would be unobtainable, hence a very much needed overhaul to the shop to ensure every feature is accessible! Make sure to check out all of the /shop categories ingame, and let us know if we missed anything!

New Mobs & Spawners:
Thanks to the updated backend, some awesome new spawners are making there way onto Skyblock next season. Players can expect to see pandas, dolphins, turtles and of course buzzy bees! All of these new spawners will be obtainable via the ingame shop, allowing for even more grinders on your island.

Miscellaneous Changes
As always with new seasons, it is our primary focus to ensure we deliver enough content, quality of life changes and bug fixes to satisfy our community! Players can expect to see brand new builds alongside a smoother gameplay experience with a handful of our backend plugins being updated with performance improvements. We look forward to seeing everyone this Friday. As always, enjoy!

21st June 2022 - Survival 10.0 Changelog

1,942

AlexMarkey Jun 20, 2022 at 11:23 AM Posted By AlexMarkey {date} at {time}

The time has come once again for our Survival server to start a brand new chapter. The main purpose of this reset is to bring forward the brand new Minecraft updates which have recently been released in 1.19! Alongside this, we have gone ahead and designed our very own custom claims plugin with enhanced features. This changelog will detail all changes big and small for our upcoming Survival Reset which will be dropping this upcoming Friday 24th June 3pm MST.

Upcoming Changes
- Backend has been updated to 1.19
- Brand new 1.19 Overworld, Resources World, Nether & End
- Brand new spawn
- Brand new official PvP arena located at spawn
- Custom claims plugin (with permissions, inspect mode, banning players and much more)!
- Players are now able to set a description for their warps (which will appear in the warps GUI)
- Players are now able to select a category when browsing through warps
- 20% of players on the server sleeping will now trigger the night to pass
- Dynamic web map has been added ( https://mccentral.org/dynmap )

The Wild Update (1.19):
The biggest change players will face next season is the updated backend from 1.18 to 1.19! This update will bring forward all of the newly added Minecraft features (Such as the deep dark, The Warden, etc). Minecraft 1.19 was released on the 7th June, and in typical Survival fashion, we are striving to keep everything on the latest Minecraft version!

Enhanced Custom Claims Plugin:
Previously on Survival, we used a public plugin to handle all of the land claiming. With this approach came limitations which we were not happy with! This upcoming season, we are proud to release our brand new custom claims plugin which has been designed from scratch to include epic features such as permissions, banning players, withdrawing claim blocks, inspecting claim territory and much more! A detailed tutorial on our new claims plugin can be viewed here. This tutorial will go over all features of the plugin which players can expect to see!

Enhanced Player Warps
Player warps are a fundamental aspect of Survival. With over 3,000 warps being created last season, sorting between these warps and understanding exactly what each warp consists of is a very important aspect. This upcoming season, players are now able to set descriptions for their warps, alongside a category. Whilst browsing warps, players are now able to sort between different categories (such as shops, social, combat and grinders) whilst viewing a description of that warp prior to teleporting!

Dynamic Web Map
With this upcoming reset, players will be able to view the server from a never before seem angle! Introducing the new dynamic 'Google Maps' style web map! This map can be viewed at the following url here. This is a live updating map, displaying a live feed of the 3 main worlds (Overworld, Nether & The End) which will update throughout the entirety of the season!

2,503

AlexMarkey May 4, 2022 at 3:07 AM Posted By AlexMarkey {date} at {time}

The time has come once again for our Prison server to start a brand new chapter. This season is focussed on adding as much new content as possible to keep the game feeling modern and fresh! Players can expect to see epic new features this upcoming season such as Minions, Plots, Custom Spawners and much more! This changelog will detail all changes big and small for our upcoming Prison Reset which will be dropping this upcoming Friday 6th May 3pm MST.

- Brand new event has been added: Brackets Tournament
- Fixed a bug where cellmate discounts (for the higher ranks) would not work properly
- Players are now able to split SellWands with the command /split

- Cellmate level has now been added to /stats
- Friendly Fire for gangs has now been swapped over to a permission (so gangs can enable or disable it)
- Brand new 'Plot Dimension' has been added, giving players a separate area to build besides their mine
- PMD has been massively overhauled to give it more of a purpose (players can unlock Minions from the PMD)

- Players can now purchase Wyvern Spawners from the Minion shop, along with the ability to upgrade them
- Players are now able to view their PMD statistics
- Players are now able to sell Dragon Eggs in the shop (obtainable from Wyverns)

Minions (PMD Overhaul):
This upcoming season, the Prisoner of Mass Destruction (PMD) has been massively overhauled. Upon using the PMD, players will now unlock minions (there are 6 minions available to unlock). Once unlocked, minions will walk out onto your Private Mine, collect blocks and return them to your PMD. Whilst doing this, your minions will build up a bank balance (known as Minion Money). Minion Money can be spent at the all new Minion Shop to purchase 2 new items: Wyvern Spawners and Wyvern Crystals. Wyvern Spawners are the brand new Custom Spawner, and Wyvern Crystals are used to upgrade these spawners! More information on Wyverns below.

Wyvern Spawners:
Wyvern Spawners can be purchased from the Minion Shop. These custom spawners have a unique purpose on Prison to differentiate them from all other spawners. Wyvern Spawners can be upgraded using Wyvern Crystals (which are also purchased from the Minion Shop). Upgrading your Wyvern Spawner will grant players with many awesome benefits, most notably the ability for Wyverns to drop tokens (that's right, this is now the only other way to obtain tokens besides mining for them manually)! It is important to note that players are unable to place more than 1 Wyvern spawner on their private mine / plot. It is in a players best interest to fully utilise their minions and upgrade their Wyvern spawner as much as possible throughout the season!

Plot Dimension:
This upcoming season, Private Mines are receiving a massive upgrade! Upon entering your mine, players will notice a portal on their island. Upon entering this portal, players will be teleported to their Private Plot (which is directly linked to their Private Mine - Think of it as an extension of your land). This plot gives players a much more suitable location to setup a shop, or build whatever they desire, without having to worry about building around their mine. Players are able to seamlessly link their Private Mine to their plot using Nether Portals or Teleport Pads, allowing for endless possibilities. Gone are the days of mining in a Private Mine next door to a massive laggy chest shop!

Cellmate Improvements:
Last season, cellmates made their first appearance on our Prison server. This upcoming season, they are receiving a few updates to make them cooler than ever! Players are now able to rename their cellmate, along with changing the color of its nameplate. Along with this, a brand new command has been added /cmtop to display who has the highest level cellmate. An alternative way to view a players cellmate level is through the /stats command.

Brackets Tournament
This upcoming season, a brand new tournament styled event is making its way to Prison. Brackets will consist of 1v1 duels in a tournament style structure, until there is 1 player remaining who will be deemed the winner! This event will run multiple times per day, and can be accessed via /warp brackets.

Miscellaneous Changes
As always with new seasons, it is our primary focus to ensure we deliver enough content, quality of life changes and bug fixes to satisfy our community! Players can expect to see brand new builds alongside a smoother gameplay experience with a handful of our backend plugins being updated with performance improvements. We look forward to seeing everyone this Friday. As always, enjoy!
