You dont care about the number eh? brb building 1000 boxes that i want imported :V
It will cost you one stack of diamond per pointless schematic. :V
Ah yeah strafe speaking of preparations tell me when you do my schematic strafe so I can dupe my stuff :V
Oh you. :V I'll start saving schematics as we get closer to the transition time. Some things will be handled earlier than that, whenever I get around to stuff, I still have a good amount of preparation to do on my own structures, as well as the community stuff.
Result of schematic save: YOUR STUFF HAS MAGICALLY DISAPPEARED! BV
Actually, I can do stuff like that. If I really wanted to be an ass, I could just empty all of their chests before saving the schematic as well as hit that player with a /clearinventory.
I jest.
Come to think of it. I'm not sure if I can guarantee that people's on-hand inventories will be kept throughout the transition. Chances are, I will have to reset everybody's position to the new spawn coordinates. Hard way: manipulate everybody's files individually like I did in the transition from PTM. Easy way: delete everybody's files and they all start fresh in the new world. Granted, the latter won't come to pass, but there is always the possibility that things could get lost in the transition.
In short, go ahead and put all of your important stuff into chests to be saved with your schematic. As far as your inventory goes, take only what you need to survive. (food, sword, pick, armor, etc.) The same warning applies like when battling in the Arena: Don't take anything you are not willing to lose.
In other news: Notch, what possessed you to change the sound effects? My doors and chests need their hinges oiled badly, and my bow sounds like a goddamn Nerf gun. :V
