Tinkers Construct Knapsacks

Unfortunately I have had to ban the Knapsack item from Tinkers Construct.

I did not take this decision lightly, their is no other option. The problem is that it can be used to take items into minigames, bypassing the separate inventory system and allowing cheating, for example by taking a parachute into parkour. 

The crafting of knapsacks has been banned with immediate effect and trying to remove an already fitted one will result in it being confiscated.

If you are currently using a knapsack do not try and remove it, player data files will be scanned within the hour and if you leave the knapsack in place it will be removed safely, returning the contents to your inventory. You can however safely remove items from your knapsack before this happens if you wish.

Just to remind everyone, you can still use the Ender Link to access your Ender Chest from anywhere and use Doggy Talents dogs and Chocobos to carry extra inventory with you.

Update: In the end only 6 players actually had Knapsacks with anything in them so not a big deal loosing them, I may look at adding some kind of backpack or portable inventory system to DiggysStuff in the future though if enough people feel it would be a useful addition.

Veteran World Is Open!

Veteran World is now open!

Spawn is near the top of a giant redwood giving you a choice of ways to get down, you can parachute off using the free daily Hop And Pop parachute, jump and aim for the water surrounding it or go down the very long (70+ block) ladder!

Unlike the main world Veteran World doesn't have Biomes 'O Plenty, this means that biomes like the GrowthCraft Bamboo Forest and world generation such as Chococraft Gysahl Greens and Natura trees are abundant and much easy to find!

The world is much smaller than the main world and as the name suggests it's restricted to Veteran rank players and above only, meaning it's much less likely to need resetting in the future.

Veteran World also has its own set of PS blocks:

"Veteran Home" - 81x81

"Donator Home" - 101x101

"VIP Home" - 121x121

These stones have all the same flags available as Small & Large Homes in the normal world.

The stones are available along with more information and FREE kits at the world spawn.

New Command Available In Upgrade Store!

The command /firework is now available to buy in the Upgrade Store at spawn!

Using this command you can easily edit the color/s, fade, shape and effect of fireworks, details have been added to the 'Commands' page.

To purchase this command you must be Resident rank or above.

Enjoy!

For full details see the Technic Platform changelog.

This update is mandatory and is required to join the server!

Enjoy!

Version 1.2.7 Released!

Changes in this version:

• Updated DiggysStuff to 1.5.6 (was 1.5.5): transmutation recipe update.
• CraftingTablePlus replaced with patched version of Project Bench (1.8.0DV).

For full details see the Technic Platform changelog.

Unfortunately due to a major bug with CraftingTablePlus which was unfixable it was necessary to remove it, however, with what I learnt from it I was able to patch the abandoned mod that inspired it, Project Bench. 

I have set the ID's to match so that the blocks will be replaced automatically when the chunk next loads and functionality wise my patch should mean you don't even notice the difference. So this is essentially just a name change. 

You will need to re-download the texture pack or apply the most recent patch again for the x64 texture to work with it due to the change in mod name.
