      @scottalanmiller Yea minecraft solo pretty much sucks.

      Speaking of maybe you can setup a FTB Invinity Evolved server on that scale cluster 😛 Maybe import a world and get things really flying.

        The main developer behind Pocketmine was hired by Mojang not too long ago. I wonder how quickly they will be able to get the system updated.

        Is he still allowed to work on it? Mojang are the ones specifically changing the code and, I assume, for the express purpose of making PocketMine have to work hard to keep things working. They could easily make this stable, but they don't.

        From what I've read he is. Minecraft PE has rarely been friendly to the modding community though.

        He's not even posted on the twitter feed about the issue. Total silence on all channels. I have a feeling he's not on the project any longer 😞 Maybe he is just really busy, but seems suspicious that there isn't even a note saying he is aware of the issue.

          I don't doubt that. It's unfortunate but it looks like the project may be abandoned. Looks like someone is updating their Github, but it hasn't been pulled into the master branch yet.

            Looks like there are some unofficial patches.

              Maybe PocketMine is going to need to be forked.

                Sounds like it. I think it is PHP? So that shouldn't be too bad.

                  Yes, it is PHP.

                      There is a patch that has been submitted to solve this issue but it hasn't been folded into the master branch yet. Forking the project could incorporate that patch and ensure future development continues, if for instance the main dev decides to get out of the game and remove the project.

                        PocketMine IS the server 🙂

                        Minecraft PE is the client.

                          OH, thanks.
                          So forking it so that someone else can maintain it assuming that the original maintainer doesn't come back, is that right?

                            Right, that's the wonderful thing about open source. If the project goes stale, someone else can either take over as the direct maintainer OR they can fork the code and start a new project. There are active people trying to get it working right now, just not the official maintainer who now works for the company that the project was meant to work against. So forking it will allow the other people to keep submitting their updates and keep the project moving forward.

                              Another advantage to open source!

                                The original developer for PocketMine has worked for Mojang for a year now and has continued to work on this project, just at a much reduced rate as can been seen in the contributors listing. You know, because he has a full time job too.

                                  Also a significant disadvantage when official projects don't keep some imaginary pace requirement. OpenSource can splinter too much.

                                      Might be for another thread but I just don't "get" minecraft. What's the point?

                                        Or, you know, the owner of the project has not released a patch of any kind because MineCraft PE is about to go to version 14. Which would break it all over again.

                                        Mojang is actively push to bring PE up to near feature parity with the original PC edition.

                                        For emulators, a fast official development and release cycle is basically a project killer.

                                          No kidding. My first MMORPG is now available from people who took the original client and re-wrote the server coding just from that. www.sbemu.com

                                            I spent about 4-5 years as a minor contributing member to the EQ emulator project. Still have commit access actually.
