@BanzayIkoyama I'll see what i can do to make it more user friendly. maybe /apoc start <world name>
I think I have a problem over here. I have tried this plugin in my private server, and there were no problems except the apocalypse never started. First I didn't delete the the config file after puting the newest JAR file in place (SOLAR APOCALYPSE B.1.1) so I thought that would be the problem, but not even that helped. So I'm at a loss right now as to why doesn't it work. Only sais the Apocalypse will begin at sunrize, but nothing ever happens. I have even tried to skip the nights, sleep them trough, wait all night but nothing ever happened.
EDIT: I looked at the config file right now, and at the world name it says "world" however that is not the name of the world I started the apocalypse in. I'll attempt to replace that line with my world, don't know if that will help or not.
EDIT.2: Yes, there was the problem. Sorry for posting here for nothing '
@GriffonDefender broke how?
I tested it, and it broke. I think it was MultiWorld, but I'm not sure. I'll try without MultiWorld and post the results.
Use the smoke entity with size: 1 on people's faces every 5 seconds during night.
@jack324 Sounds fun
I got a bunch of bug fixes on the way stay tuned should have the next version out soon.
significantly better results and performance with v. b.1.0. very nice effects. i am currently using it to give my server a fiery send off as part of its up coming permanent shutdown.
20 days of insanity and destruction. i think its worth it after a year of solid running.
i wish mojang had added more weather, like when your in the desert and a storm hits it turns into a sandstorm and the visibility drops to 3 or 4 blocks. that would add a nice dynamic to survival servers.
ok I uploaded the first beta version its awaiting approval heres the current know bugs
Please let me know how its working on your servers and what blocks need to be added to the burn list.

yes, yet another timer bug, i fixed it ill try to have the next version up tomorrow with an option to turn off the world timers since its so buggy.
<<reply 710587="">>
yes! they will freeze under ground too. added an on off option lowered the light level you can get about 5 blocks from a torch now.
once it goes night on my server it seems like it never goes day again. the time keeps jumping from 8am back to 7:50am and stays in stormy weather. there is no error in the log to indicate a problem. any idea? here is a copy of my config:
ApocV-A05: true ApocRunning: true WorldName: world Skip: 0 TICKER: 10 Multiplier: 1.0 MultiplierStep: 0 DoomClock: 1.0 DoomClockStep: 0 StartRandmBlock: 1 StartBurnOnDay: 1 Afected_Block_List: - WOOD->51 - SAPLING->0 - LOG->51 - LEAVES->0 - LONG_GRASS->32 - DEAD_BUSH->0 - YELLOW_FLOWER->32 - RED_ROSE->32 - BROWN_MUSHROOM->0 - RED_MUSHROOM->0 - HUGE_MUSHROOM_1->0 - HUGE_MUSHROOM_2->0 - SNOW->0 - ICE->0 - MYCEL->3 - GRASS->3
Great plugin, keep up the good work!
i would like the take cold damage part work all the time in surface and in mines.
uploaded newer version A05 fixed a lot of bugs. almost ready for beta.

I considered the armor idea with the original mod but with brewing you can make a fire resist potion so theres no point. But in this new mod sunrise and sun set are safe to explore and night can be if you make paths of torches. I'm still thinking about leather armor offering some cold protection. (if you don't protect a pair of cows, your screwed) :P
Keep in mind this mod is meant as epic hard mode.
Status Update!
I found the lag bug that caused all the problems! I had to rewrite the day slowing code and sadly you can no longer Speed up the days. Theres a new really odd bug with the moon. no idea how to fix it so I'm going to leave it for now.
Added Explosive Lighting, your simple roof of dirt is no longer 100% safe. I still need to add an option for the Explosive power.
I am absolutely LOVING this plugin, I am using it for my server already. A quick suggestion for the apocalypse which may be a major or difficult feature to add. Solar radiation, So you build up in it and it will damage you over time so you cannot stay out in the sun for long versus burning the second I am exposed to light. And maybe if you aren't wearing any protective armor (Gold leather iron diamond, I'm not sure) then you could burn in sunlight and solar radiation would still be a problem. (Armor decays in sunlight?) Just a quick idea. Also, Thanks for making this plugin! I am loving it c:!
Edit: Does that lightning target players in specific or does it shoot everywhere at random causing destruction?
Found the source of the water bug. water is affected by the time, so when the time is slowed so is waters flow speed is also slowed.
There may be no way to fix this bug and I may need to scrap the time slowing aspects.

The Doom Clock is a day counter, and triggers the stages of the mod.
Please show permissions if you have them.
What is the DoomClock
It's really awesome you got the plugin finished! Downloading right now, and going to make a server for it.
