well i was still looking. but due to a severe lack of moderators to help run the server i think i am going to have to close it down for a while.

i am having some issues setting up redpower permissions on my server. i am using factions and have been building large battle arenas using factions warzones, one of my more recent constructions uses redpower block breakers, depolyers ect to move walls around with levers. However i cant figure out how to give redpower permission to break blocks inside safezones or warzones. the only way i know of doing it as a player is /f admin on to activate an overide and there doesn't seem to be a way to do this for a fake user? any help with this would be appreciated.

still need a few more moderators, anyone good at web art who can design a better logo and tidy up the webpage would be really useful at this point

First things first, if you've never been involved with managing a server before this post isnt for you, I am looking for people who know what they are doing. For the rest of you: --------------------- I am preparing to setup a PVP Tekkit server with a Medi-evil theme. i have been running a Private server for a while and those who are on it all agree we should get some more players so we are starting over. This means im going to need some moderators to help organize and manage the Server. Specifically i need moderators with some experince with the technical side of Running a server. The server is going to be running on a custom built gaming computer that acts as my personal server tower its more powerful than most hosting services provide however i doubt i can maintain it by my self. I have been trying to run the server with Multicraft to allow external access for managing it but so far its just been causing errors (thanks to my derpy technical skills no doubt), i would also like to set up a website to go with the server and host that from my computer as well. however i have never tried hosting as webpage on the server tower before and i know some security measures need to be in place to prevent viruses and spyware. Once the Server is setup and successfully running (hopefully with the help of some recruited moderators) i Plan to 'stress test' it before deciding whether to keep it on my computer or switch to a hosting service So to Summerize: ------------------- i am looking for some Moderators Preferably with Webhosting / technical skills Interested in Helping me. you must be in or close to UK time zone and Preferably have Skype (although i do have other IM software i prefer to run just the one at a time and skype is my current preference.) if interested leave a reply with the following information: Name: Minecraft name: Age: Country: time zone: Skype: Previous moderating experience: Skills: Brief explanation of why i should pick you: What you expect: Hope to hear from you soon. Notes on the server: Plan on running : Tekkit (primarily for red power, may disable unnecessary mods) Essentials Factions Terrain control Dynmap (with Factions plugin) Mob health Theme: Medieval Fantasy/Light Steampunk Texture pack :Legend of Minecraftia Edit: I thought I would add a list of Skills we Find Ideal. Skills we still need: Web art - The server website needs a theme and a main page, our logo could also use some tidying up as well. it runs on Xenforo at the moment Mod / Plugin programming skills - We are Hoping to create some mods and plugins that will 'tidyup' the server, some examples: add a visual element for factions allys and enemys much like the spout features that work on non tekkit servers, create visual blocks and items for common server commands. e.g a Transactions ledger on a table instead of a essentials trade sign, or a Town Bulletin board that provides menu access to factions commands. Html /Website programming skills - We would Like to implement some web based features for for tracking the server status, Faction leader boards , Events calender etc. MY skills in web design are limited and someone with experience would really speed up progress. Terrain control - we need someone with extensive knowledge in either the terrain control plugin or writing world generation plugins, so we can create an interesting world with thick dark forests and ancient ruins randomly generated around it. we want to create a per biome ore system so factions will need to venture out and fight over resources. Music - Provided we get a moderator who can handle mods to run them we might like to add our own music based on the part of the world your in though this is a less required skill at this stage.

The Tekkit server currently run on a version of bukkit, most bukkit plugins still work (apparently a couple don't but none of the ones i use have had any issues so far)

I will try it out, actually got this from a tutorial video it was originally a code to lock the computer and when the password was correct it would exit the running program and allow you access again. but i have been adapting it for use with a door and obviously dont want people to be able to exit the program and type 1 IOX! to skip the password EDIT: i tested it out and it seems to work fine i have hooked up two redpower computers to an io expander and hidden the processors so only the monitor can be seen from either side of the door and copyed the program over to both of them using a floppy. now Either monitor can be used to access the password screen and typing the correct password opens the door for a few seconds before resetting the whole thing. thanks

both CC and WR are disabled on my server. feels like i have been asking for help with a Linux computer and the reply's have been to get windows.

EDIT: now that i have gotten it working i figured id replace the Original post with an explanation of how to use it. First create an iron door and connect it to the White cable from an IO expander. you need to connect two computers to this io expander 1 for each side of the door. hide the processor and floppy drives in the wall so no one can reset your computer and have the monitors visible for typing in the password. setting up the computer: first you need to set up some commands to control your variables, type: --------------- : STRING 32 ALLOT SWAP ! ; : SET @ 32 CR ." : " ACCEPT CR ; : PRINT @ CR ." '" TYPE ."'" CR ; ------------------ (dont type the ----) Next set up your variables : ----------------- VARIABLE PASSWORD PASSWORD STRING VARIABLE TEMP TEMP STRING ---------------- next you set up your password: use PASSWORD SET it will then wait for you to type in the password. you can use PASSWORD PRINT to check what your password is. Next you write the lock program ( Thanks again to MasterVentris for getting this working) --------- : LOCK 3 IOXADDR ! BEGIN DO PAGE ." Password : " CR TEMP SET PASSWORD @ TEMP @ STRCMP 0 = IF PAGE CR CR ." Access Granted " 1 IOX! 80 TICKS 0 IOX! ELSE PAGE CR CR ." Access Denied! " 80 TICKS THEN LOOP ; --------- Now that its set up youll want to save it so you can load it into the other computer. Put in a blank floppy and type: -------- SAVE" PASSDOOR V 1.1 by linaru -------- that will save the lock to the floppy. check your password is right with PASSWORD PRINT and PASSWORD SET then type ------ LOCK ------ the monitor will now display the 'enter password screen' when the correct password is typed in the door will open. Finally.. insert your floppy disk into the second computer. Set the password again and type LOCK again the second Computer will let you type the password in from the other side of your door. Once LOCK is typed in there is no way to get back to the normal typey in mode without resetting your computer via the processor. this will wipe the lock program so make sure you put your Floppy in a Safe place in case you need to set it up again. and of course you could hook this up to anything with an on / off function.. password controlled piston bridge? if you change the lock bit slightly : --- change: CR CR ." Access Denied! " 80 TICKS THEN LOOP to CR CR ." Access Denied! " 2 IOX! 70 TICKS 0 IOX! THEN LOOP --- you can then attach an additional cable( 2 IOX! = orange i think) to the io expander and use it with a industrial craft alarm. This way the alarm goes off Every time some one gets the password wrong

I have tried getting terrain control to work on bukkit but it doesn't seem to do anything to the terrain generation at all.its just generating the default minecraft world with the ores and such as if the terrain control plugin wasn't in it, all the commands are there and i am pretty sure everything's set up right but it seems like something in tekkit is forcing it to ignore the plugin. does it not work with tekkit 3.1.2 ?

well redpower has its own pipes which personally i prefer over buildcrafts piping system. it seems more thought out. im not aware of any permissions plugin that lets you pick specific recipes to block?

i have been running a private tekkit server for a while and have been wanting for some time to disable the buildcraft pipes so players will rely on redpowers pipeing system instead. is there any way to disable buildcraft pipes from the server?
