Attention all OneBlockers!

We are thrilled to announce the release of one of the biggest and most highly anticipated updates to our server yet. This update brings a plethora of new features and improvements, including quality of life changes, refreshed rank perks, and exciting new content for players to explore and enjoy.

These are just a few of the many improvements and additions coming with this update.

We've been working hard to bring this update to you, and we can't wait for you to experience all the new features for yourself. Jump in and explore the endless possibilities of our server. This is an update you won't want to miss!

Quality of Life Changes

All of the below QOL changes will effect all OB realms unless stated otherwise.

OneBlock Island Chat

We know there has been a big need for you to be able to communicate with your fellow team members while online without the whole server knowing your business. For this reason we have added a brand new /ob chat for you to talk to your team.

Please note that all normal chat rules still apply within this chat.

To turn on OB Chat simply run the command /ob chat, this will put you into your OB chat where all messages sent will only be visible to your fellow OB members. You will remain in your OB Chat until you you run the command to toggle it back off.

You can quickly send a chat message without having to toggle OB chat by typing /ob chat <message>. This will send your message into OB chat while leaving you in global chat.

When talking in OB chat your message will show up in green as shown below. You will also be able to tell OB ranks via how many symbols they have in front of their name. OB ranks will be shown as follows:

Another highly requested addition is a confirmation menu when using a rename scroll, this will allow you to see a preview of your named item before taking your scroll. You will be given a menu in which you can either confirm or cancel the changes as shown below!

New Emotes

Who doesn't love using /emotes? We have vastly improved our selection with the addition of a whopping 8 new emotes. These will be given out in prizes over the coming year!

We have added the following emotes: /slap, /sad, /comfort, /kiss, /no, /yes, /sus and /oops!

Added Rename Scrolls to /c shop for 300 credits

Player Shops - A whole new way to advertise your OB Shop

Player shops introduce a whole new way to advertise your shop and get new players to join your OB!

To setup a shop simply run /pshop create and follow the ingame prompts. Once your shop is created you can place down a sign with the text "[SHOP]".

Once your shop is created you can edit it by clicking the Chest at the bottom of the /pshop menu. You can even use color codes within shop titles and descriptions.

Shops will be ordered within the GUI by highest visits.

Place down a sign with the text "[SHOP]" on it to create your shop warp!

`/pshop` - Shops in here will be shown in order of total warps

Taxi Signs

Taxi signs give a whole new way to transit round your island, gone are the days of setting homes or flying around. Welcome to the new age of Taxi Signs.

These Taxi Signs simply allow you and any island members you specify to teleport between each of the signs instantly. Taxi signs are only able to be used on your OB and will not teleport players between OBs. You can change who can use these signs via your /ob settings to allow even visitors to use them!

Setting up these Taxi Signs could not be easier:

Place down a sign and type "[TAXI]" onto it, the sign will then change into the setup phase.
Place down the 2nd sign where you would like the other end to be and click the sign once placed. Do not write on this sign, you can use a already placed blank sign.
Follow the chat prompt asking for a name of the Taxi warp.
Enjoy your new Taxi Sign!

There will be a cap on how many of these signs can be placed based on the OB owners rank. Member rank will be able to place 1 taxi sign pair while Netherite rank will be able to place up to 10.

Visit other people signs (Galaxy and Abyss Only)

A simple but very useful addition is the ability to place down a sign on your OB that when clicked will take you to someone else's OB.

Simply place down a sign on your OB and type "[Visit]" on the first line followed by the IGN of the player on the 2nd line. So long as the OB you are trying to warp to has a valid visit sign and the OB is open clicking the sign will take you to their OB.

There will be a cap on how many of these signs can be placed based on the OB owners rank. Member rank will be able to place 1 visit sign pair while Netherite rank will be able to place up to 10.

Clicking this sign will take you to wlovisa OB

Visit other peoples signs will be live in the coming days

Chunkloader PSA

We wanted to take a moment to apologize for the delays and lack of information regarding the Galaxy Chunkloaders.

Chunkloaders required major and time-consuming changes to the actual software that the server is running on, these changes are major and will require a lot of testing to make sure they are 100% before deploying. Unfortunately, the Chunkloaders did not behave as we had anticipated when we first implemented them on the live realm dispite working on development realms. We understand how frustrating this must be for you, and we want to assure you that we are working diligently to resolve the issues and get the chunkloaders functioning as intended.

We know that you have been patiently waiting for an update on this, and we apologize for the lack of transparency. Going forward, we promise to be more transparent about any issues that may arise and to keep you informed of our progress.

At this time, we cannot provide a specific timeline for when the Chunkloaders will be fully functional as we cannot confirm a date and do not want to disappoint further. However, we want to assure you that this is now a high priority task for us, and we are doing everything we can to get it resolved as soon as possible.

Again, we apologize for the delays and any inconvenience this may have caused. Thank you for your understanding and continued support.

To summarize, we are excited to release our biggest update ever, filled with exciting changes and additions. Thank you for your support and patience as we worked on this update. We hope that these changes will enhance your experience and we look forward to an amazing new year with you all. Be sure to join our Discord server to stay fully up to date on all future updates. Thank you again for your support!
