      ATTENTION Forum Database Breach   03/04/2019

      There has been a breach of our database. Please make sure you change your password (use a password manager, like Lastpass).
      If you used this password anywhere else, change that too! The passwords themselves are stored hashed, but may old accounts still had old, insecure (by today's standards) hashes from back when they where created. This means they can be "cracked" more easily. Other leaked information includes: email, IP, account name.
      I'm trying my best to find out more and keep everyone up to date. Discord (http://invite.gg/TerraFirmaCraft) is the best option for up to date news and questions. I'm sorry for this, but the damage has been done. All I can do is try to make sure it doesn't happen again.

  1. You can check 15 625 blocks with propick. But you still need to dig tunnel. To be safe you need to dig 35,60,85 layers to hit lower ores, where rare things are common. 1 miliard blocks would be 256x 3 906 250 block layers. So you need to dig only 3 layers every 25 blocks thats 1980m long tunnels over 1980m wide area, so you can avoid it by just digging every 25m so you need 79 x 1980m tunnels at 3 different depths. So to check 1 miliard chunk area you need to dig 469 260 blocks. 1.8seconds for each blocks, but you need to dig 2x so you can walk through it (assuming you don't use smart moving) this means 1 689 336 seconds of digging or 469,26 hours or 19,5525 days of pure strip mining. 1 407 bronze pickaxes broken, you need to check 4x every 25m so you can be sure you are not hitting fakes so you only need 21 propicks.

     

    Fun eh? FUN FUN FUN!

     

    I would say my calculations are CORRECT!

     

    Or you could get 470 people doing strip mine from all directions! You could find that graphite without cheats in 1 measly hour!

  2. I found around 1000 graphite in 1 000 000 000 blocks that is 1ppm. So good luck with that. If you could dig 1 block in 2 seconds you will find 1 graphite in 23 days of nothing but digging.

  3. I tend to wander off to a bit further when one rock ends to see if i can find anything useful when i'm down there.

    So is there any ore detector i can use to find graphite, because i'm 99% sure it does not spawn on my server.

    I've been digging for days with creative mode and automap ore radar, still nothing!

     

    I FOUND GRAPHITE!

    Here's how.

     

    1. Walk around LOT and LOT and LOT and LOT of land on your minecraft server.

    2. Copy folder that contain level.dat (mine was cpy server so folder name was cpy) copy it to save folder in your %appdata% (.minecraft/save)

    3. Download MCEdit if you dont have. 

    4. MCEditMCEdit-0.1.7.1.win-amd64library.zip contain pymclevelminecraft.yaml file

    5. Add this to the bottom of the file and save it, 2097 is my default ID from Ore2

     

      - id: 2097   idStr: graphite   name: Graphite   mapcolor: [255, 128, 79]   tex: [4, 0]   data:   4:   name: Graphite   tex: [4, 0]

     

    6. open MCEdit your saved level

    7. select area (expand height with shift) and press analyze, if you see any graphite 2097:4 hold shift and reduce sides by shift clicking side, (reduce left first, reanalyze see if there still is graphite)

    8. repeat until you find quite small area that you can dig out.

    9. zoom in MC edit hold ctrl, write down coordinates for area

    10. start digging on your server!

     

    It took me about 1 000 000 000 blocks of analyzing to find it!

  4. I dug over 20km of tunnels in stuff that is supposed to have it! There should not be luck involved.

    I want a damn ore detector that can pick up graphite.

    I found over 10 kaolinite deposits, which is supposed to be rare. That only because i was near borders where it appears.

  5. Ok i've been looking for days for graphite, i gave up and i've been looking for graphite in creative mode with ore tracking. Still nothing, what gives?

    Is there any detector that can detect graphite block ID: meta?

    I have no idea where to look for it. Marble nothing, gneiss, quartz, schist nothing.

    I think graphite does not spawn on my server. :(

  6. Big changes require lot of coding and bug hunting, but your idea seems good, you must also think if it's reasonably possible to code thing like that. Then comes the client performance and server performance tax for doing so.
