Draft post...

Blockhunt

Warp: /kakikaro 

Hit the join sign.. needs 3 players to join at least before it auto starts.

block is like prophunt, hideandseek etc... 

How to play:
When you join the arena it randomly picks which class you will start in...

-Hiders choose a disguise block, and then have to hide in the arena map and avoid being killed.
-Seekers have to find and kill the hiders.

We have pretty big arena map setup for this, so give a it try. Though no doubt it will need some tweaking with what disguise blocks should be used. I've tried to pick out blocks that won't make it to easy for hiders.

Also with this new minigame, Disguisecraft has been replaced with a similar plugin a much better one actually. Will have to redo perms and give new commands out later.

Creative mode in survival ?!?!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
And the big change is coming...  creative donators will be able to have creative in the main world again!

Since march 2013 when the last map reset took took place, it was no longer possible for players with gamemode access to use it in the survival only map. Yes it was still possible to use in other worlds including the /freebuild map without restriction, including sharing items with other players as those maps were completely separated from the server economy. Since that change took place not as many felt like building in the old map due to many players moving to in the main survival world instead, so despite creative mode being completely unrestricted, it got used very little other than by a few.

Well its about time to change that now as it just didn't really work out how I thought it would  ...so donators who got creative mode will be allowed to use it in the main survival map once again. This time with some mitigation to all the risks of it being abused to break the economy or help non donators get a major boost without the effort that other survival only players would not get.

Somethings to note, whenever you use creative in the /survival or the linked worlds like /spawn (including the /shop)  there will be a few restrictions if you stay in creative mode and it only applies to survival economy worlds, with other worlds, creative mode works unrestricted.

These include:
- You cannot use chests.
- You cannot drop items.
- Item restrictions will include mob egg spawning, exp bottles.
- You cannot buy or sell items at any shop
- Every block you place while in creative mode on the survival map, if it is destroyed by anyone, it will not drop anything.

Note: Everything will work as normal if you swap back to survival mode again.

There is also an option to have any blocks you place automatically protected so no one else can break them, a nice feature for those who just want to build without having to manage area protection plugins to protect what they build.

This option is something that will not be on by default, though it might be added on request by those who donated for creative. It comes with other commands, the main one being is

/friend <name>

Adding someone to your friend list will allow only them to be able to break your blocks (no item drops though).

Existing creative donators will be able to use creative /g in the survival world as I make all the config & perm changes starting later today. I'm sure many will be glad to finally get creative mode back in the main world and I'm glad these changes have finally taken place, sorry it just took a while to find a developer to help code the necessary features to allow this. It was just not a possible option before with the last map changes.

Last note: The world breaking 1.7 minecraft update will no doubt break some plugins when a 1.7.x bukkit server release ever gets finished. With Kraftzone allowing creative access in any survival world again (including future maps!) keep in mind its very dependent on a few plugins to prevent abuse. Should those plugin not work with no replacement, it would likely mean no creative mode being allowed in the survival map(s) again until those plugins work or are replaced.

With all that said the donation offer for creative mode is being reduced, it will be $20 until the end of the year
