Mineverse Updates - May 24th, 2020.

• PvP - Fixed an exploit on the PvP servers, took about a week to figure out and fix. Not patched by any public plugin and exists on mostly all 1.8 servers. Was responsible for random disconnects and recently a group of players that would come on and do the exploit to kick everyone off the server, the best thing we had in place was something that auto ip-banned but the exploit would still technically go through. They would then get on a new vpn and account and continue. Our patch seems to work great so far.
  
• Lobby - Removed our strict anti-vpn restrictions since the above was fixed.
  
• Skyblock - Hopper limit has been increased from 100x to 150x.

More Skyblock Updates.

• Hoppers have been increased to 100x per island and will not depend on expansion. I know there has been some complaints about what was set previously, however some sort of limit needs to be in place as from experience a single island can slow down the server entirely. It is likely something we experienced many times before however went unnoticed as it clears up once an island like this is unloaded. I think a limit at a 100 is a good number and an expansion will not be required so it is fair for all. Let me know what you guys think.
• Natural monsters should spawn a little bit more often.
• Trees grow a little faster.

Mineverse Updates - May 22nd, 2020.

Bunch of Skyblock updates.
All of this has been added to improve performance along with getting the server up to date with our own custom plugin. This took quite awhile, thank you Matt for helping.

Some of these features were long overdue and had to be implemented, such as the block values, which needed some blocks decreased/increased as users could for instance have an island consisted of only note blocks to have a high level or islands requiring limits on spawners & hoppers to decrease the amount of strain one single island could have on the entire server.

• Improvements to our SB plugin, code re-written or changed in order to load more efficiently.
• Organized the island types in the /newisland menu to be centered and neat.
• 'Loading...' message added when visiting an island.
• 'Locked' & 'Unlocked' color coded within the /sb menu to display what the lock status of your island is.
• Removed the sounds of pistons, other...
