Bug: Ores can spawn in air if they are technically not surrounded by air, if they're around transparent blocks like snow.
Solution: Fix the spawning algorithm to treat snow, flowers, mushrooms, glass, torches, etc as air for spawning ores.
Anything else you'd like to say about it: Personally, I strongly disagree with how ore spawning works now - it discourages cave exploring in favor of strip mining, which disfavors new players. I feel that the drawback of veteran players easily obtaining ore isn't as big of a priority as encouraging new players to explore, especially when they have huge stockpiles of ores anyways.

I feel that the drawback of veteran players easily obtaining ore isn't as big of a priority as encouraging new players to explore, especially when they have huge stockpiles of ores anyways.

I agree with this completely. In fact, I believe this is a disadvantage for new players, as older players have advanced pickaxes which mine a lot quicker and last longer. However, the ores weren't changed to stop veteran players of easily obtaining ores-- The ore generation was recently doubled, and to balance this out surface ores have been removed. So... Although I agree with you, and I dislike the new spawning, I think it's a tiny bit necessary.

Tbh, doubling was just as primary measure to see what kind of generation it got because the original was so low, if we determine that the generation is still subpar, then we can increase it from here. I understand what you're saying about discouraging caving in favor of strip mining, but the no-air spawning is to offset the increased generation. Plus, since a big problem is afking, why not give a little more incentive to spend time and resources mining to get a bigger payout, opposed to spending a short amount of time caving only to pick off the ores you can visibly see, especially without vein generation.

I found another method to sneak items from the Survival into Adventure inventory. After a round ends and when the inter-round timer is nearing 15 seconds, stand somewhere in kotl and /slay. Then, after the round begins, hit Title Screen on the death screen and the log back in. After logging in, you should be in survival mode with survival inventory, and then just take a sword or something and toss it. Then attempt to move, you should instantly die, and then hit Respawn and /kotl back again and pick up whatever you dropped while in adventure mode.

This quirk/glitch has to do with dead players being resistant to relocation, especially the one that usually happens on spawn - if you're dead, you're going to log in to the same spot, as opposed to being brought back to the center of the lobby. Usually this doesn't affect much since you can't do anything while dead but hit the Respawn button. But the thing is here is that an inventory switch causes a health and status effect switch as well - and a health switch means you're suddenly not dead anymore, and this happens after the login tele would usually happen that has already been cancelled due to being dead. So, you log in with full health and in survival mode in the middle of kotl, and you won't get switched until you move around, triggering the move event. You're free to toss items then.

A possible solution that fixes potentially all of the issues regarding item transfers is just to disable item picking up while in adventure mode. This might not solve all the problems but it greatly lessens the attack surface.

Bug: Invincibility in kotl. /kotl /prestige /slay /kotl. 30 seconds of immunity, which is a ton of time for kotl.
Solution: Make prestige invincibility 10 seconds like all the others. Also, /kotl /ps h /slay /lobby /kotl works too for 30 seconds of invincibility.

Bug: Couldn't find a global EscapeRestart bug report thread so I'll post this here. The book in the general lobby of the four servers has last page:

Solution: Update it

 

[kuilin]

Bug: If you die in the map, and then the map ends while you're dead, the Respawn button doesn't work anymore and you have to hit Title Screen, and when you log back in you can't be restored. This is kinda a problem for afk people that die.
Solution: Catch PlayerRespawnEvent and check if the map is unloaded, if it is then move them back to lobby? I dunno.

[Unusual_Dood]

Bug: The king of the ladder doors does currently not open when you hit the pressure plate, so you cant enter the arena. Also after a round you spawn with your inventory and items. This does not happen when I do /kotl
How did you discover this bug: I tried to enter the Kotl arena but couldnt, and looked at my inventory
Solution: Fix it
Anything else you want to say about it: Nope

 

[Velzerat]

Some of the shops are still broken- Diamond sword & slimeballs, specific examples, are two items which you buy twice instead of once.
