Proxy
Changed compression threshold to be lower, ideally this will compress more packets to send to your client to improve ping very slightly.
@Changelog Alerts
Proxy
Updated main proxy server.
Created second proxy server separate from current one to test faster ping using a different network & to work as a backup in-case the main goes down.
Try it add test.piratemc.com to your server list; see if your /ping is improved. You are connected to a load balancer first nearest to you.
The test server has not moved, its still on the same server as the survival, the network changed for this.
I wanted a backup proxy that I can switch to if the main proxy goes down again, then all we need to wait for is DNS propagation.
️ Removed test server from main proxy, you will not be able to use /server test we cant have 2 proxies connect to the same server, that sounds like a disaster waiting to happen.
Test server has to be accessed via test.piratemc.com and none of the cross-server chat will work, just while I test this other proxy/network.
Tell me if it improves
On Survival use /survey and answer.
I will post a vote under this discord message for you to tell me if its an improvement, but I'm also doing an in-game /survey please make sure you leave your feedback on this as I will be mostly checking that for feedback not the discord vote, that's just secondary as there's a ton of people that don't even play on the server that will vote negative.
Downsides is, its expensive. If you want it, I will have to make a rank dedicated to paying for it, currently testing the free version.

Removed $299,998.58 from the eco pool (I wiped my balance to 0)
The tax from shops goes to my account, Ive wiped it quite a few times, but never logged it, thought you might want to know when I clean out large sums of money out of the eco as this is a massive positive for keeping a healthy player run economy because money is generated out of thin air in multiple ways, we need ways to remove money out of the total eco that's on the server, this is something I do from time to time.
Did a lookup for the previous times Ive done this command as I was curious and there quite far apart, no idea what the bal was each time, just that I reset my bal.

Survival - Build of the month July 2025 Staff Vote & Community Vote
Created the 6 images for July 2025 BOTM and put them up at /warp botm
Given out the individual paintings to each entrant and put into your inventory @iMiki @JCardell @Olveron @PhilipG_ @TobySF @Vedel
This means you will be able to copy these and do as you wish with the paintings!
This takes me hours to make these images, It seems to have worked to get more people submitting builds to BOTM! Ive given @TobySF my PSD template but for whatever reason if he cant do it, if you fancy helping out and have photoshop or similar its just a bunch of rules in the size of paintings to resize images into, ping Toby if you want to help.
Created /survey so you can leave you feedback for your favorite build!
This months will be a staff vote, but you can still vote for your favorite so we have a community vote via /survey, this allows for me to compare a staff vote vs a community vote, next month will be an entirely community vote win again.
You have to manually run /survey this time, we learnt from last time, if something pops up people will just click randomly or on the first option just to get rid of the screen, lots of people that voted couldn't be bothered to look at /warp botm. So manually have to open the vote option from now on.
Community vote is now Cadet to prevent alts voting in a bias way, enabled on this community vote.
How do I enter build of the month?
You just fill out this form and select a day in the month you wish to enter for, so you can submit a build for in a few months time if you wanted.

Changed the visuals of [item] for vanilla white named items, it shows the item in gray brackets now, so you know its clickable and not someone just writing it in chat, I noticed this earlier when a book was posted to chat then someone else just wrote it, and they both looked exactly the same, so you didn't know you could click the previous one, simple, but it also does not break any colors of items.

Takes effect as of tomorrows reboot;
Updated Premium suite of essentials plugin 11 versions
@Helper Added option to add or subtract jail time from the player, usage would be something like /jail GodsDead +10m to add 10 minutes and /jail GodsDead -10m to take away 10 minutes. If player isn't jailed and you want to add +10 minutes then he will be placed into jail for that time, so its safe to use on players who are not currently jailed. Same thing for trying to lower jail time for player who are not jailed, this action will not have any effect.
Fix for cuffed players being able to go up on Y axis
Fix sit animation that could make you fall down 1 block sometimes
Fix odd issue with teleport to an offline player that sometimes put you in old location @Admin

You can now manually /afk its on a cooldown to prevent spam in the chat, @Helper you should bypass this cooldown.
@Contributor Captains now get kicked after 20 mins instead of 15, Keeping it low at present in-case we run into issues, can always increase later.

Backdated Brewing plugin, I sneakily was updating it yesterday, but there was a major conflict in the update and that just broke every brew from even working.
Im a stalemate with brewing at present with barrels, I need two things to happen, the devs to fix a major outstanding bug still and I need to get us on a newer version of Minecraft asap to allow me to use a newer version of Java. Issues are stacking up.
This rollback just gets current brews usable again
I finally deleted all barrels & cauldrons as I said I would on 18/07/2025 in preparation for this failed update ive had to roll back, so that's at least cleanup ready. https://discord.com/channels/139382225375330305/207479302311116800/1395806787252260967

Discord - Suggestions
Re-added #💡│suggestions
The old Workshop forum has been rebranded to #💡│suggestions to help keep ideas in one tidy place. Suggestions were popping up all over Discord, so this keeps everything organized and easier to manage.
The Workshop was originally meant for players to submit content (e.g., event ideas, kits, builds).
Suggestions were removed before due to a few recurring issues — please read these before posting so you understand why a post might be removed without warning:
1) I already have a huge backlog of ideas and a clear priority list. The server’s been running for 13 years — there’s no shortage of ideas, just limited time to implement them. Were always open for staff to run plugins https://piratemc.com/information/team/
2) In the past, I ended up spending more time replying to suggestion threads than actually working on them. With tags, I can now quickly mark the status of each suggestion instead of writing long replies.
3) Please avoid writing essays or overly detailed “how to fix XYZ” posts — keep suggestions focused and straightforward.
4) Try not to suggest things that would take hundreds of hours to develop.
5) Don’t suggest complete overhauls or ideas that would turn PirateCraft into a totally different server.
6) “How to use ships more” ideas — I already have big plans for ships! That’ll come later.
The goal of reopening this is simply to keep Discord tidier and give everyone a clear place to share quick, actionable ideas.
️ Please keep suggestions short, simple, and practical — things that are realistic to implement.
I run PirateCraft in my spare time around family life, so concise and clear ideas are hugely appreciated.
If something’s broken, please use #🐛│bugs instead.

Trade for the Voidmaw custom painting! The Voidmaw Trophy trades NPC now lets you get your own copy of the paining hanging up behind /warp event
This is a 6x4 painting, its slightly bigger than the one at the back of the church, I made the church one smaller on invisible frames as I couldn't be bothered to rebuild the church!
This is a combined painting, which means its all packaged into one, once you place your 6x4, you right click it at the bottom left and it will auto fill all the frames, this also packs itself down when you break a painting back into a combined one!
This should prevent copying of the painting
This painting actually looks awesome as a rug in your base! or as decoration for a ceiling as well as on the wall!
All of the items to trade for this are dropped by mobs when fighting Voidmaw mini bosses.

Removed the spawner leash on Voidmaw dragon, which is the cause of it "pinging" back to the center, the idea was to keep the dragon closer to spawn & to make sure it comes back and dousnt just get stuck somewhere out in the void, but the vanilla dragon AI is so terrible this is causing more problems. I might still need to re-set it, just at a longer block range, it would be easier to make more options to make you fly to reach it, than the dragon reach you.
Use the portal to get to the cloud to teleport high up
Use potions to float
Attack the dragon, one of its skills makes you float
Use the NPC flights around the arena, these are briallant for airtime
Bring in an airship
Get a custom horse and launch yourself off the pillars
Steal someones Elytra
Submit more ways to get into the air in #🐲│voidmaw
Added a jump pad on one of the pillars that launches you straight up into the air, just happened to be a single glass block you can land on already there.
Any more jump pad ideas post them #🐲│voidmaw

Voidmaw - /warp end
Buffed VoidlingShard to 50% from 15% drop
Modified the teleport skill of the Voidblade to use a condition to not teleport if you are standing in the spawn area (Where you go when you die) to hopefully prevent you getting targeted, killed then it teleports to you when you respawn! This is untested, so I'm not entirely sure if its working yet, please test for me!
Added 6 new custom items! Specific to VoidShulker & Voidblade drops, these mobs now have their own custom loot!
Added 3 new custom drops to the generic drop table bringing us up to 29 items in the general drop table, thanks to @Drbipper
Added Mob Drop Index NPC at /warp end so you can see all the drops, I've organized them into pages with titles for what drops you are looking at.
Custom Item count: We now have 29 general custom item drops, 8 custom drops from mini boss mobs, 8 from Voidmaw, 9 tradable (Including the map) for a total of 54 custom items to collect from this dungeon.

Voidmaw - /warp end
Voidmaw Improved @CallieMav Worked his magic and fixed Voidmaw perching, height limit, teleport & mini boss mob spawning with one new skill.
If the Dragon gets too high, it will turn around and go back to the center or perch, without teleporting, so it naturally flys back to the center, this is a massive improvement over the vanilla dragon AI.
Voidmaw shouldn't get stuck in the clouds any more
Perches much more often for ground attacks
No more janky teleport like there on a leash
Mini boss mobs spawn much more frequently as you are closer to the dragon, therefor in range for them to spawn
Fixed Voidblade teleporting to you at the spawn point, they can still run to you, but wont teleport, this taught me how to check regions conditions in mythic!
Fixed item type that wasn't dropping correctly

Test Server
️ Crew War testing!
✨ In our freshly re-branded #💡│suggestions @OneAwesomeTurtle has signed themselves up to get some crews together to test how the Crew war system works, there is absolutely zero documentation on it, the only thing we have to go off is the config which Ive pinned in #deleted-channel and that's it.
So your goal as the community, is to prove to me the suggestions channel can work, and get testing, This is something I cant test solo! Find out how it works, look at the config Ive pinned to see what options we have, make suggestions for changes in that thread and lets see if its a feature we can use. There will definitely be improvements you will want, but focus needs to be on testing to see what we have off the bat.
Updated Test server world to match survival as of this message.
Updated Crew & Claims database, the two things you'll be needing.
️ All feedback goes into the thread, don't start asking for things not in the config, simple. #deleted-channel

Voidmaw - /warp end
Added special pickup item! Void Mortar!
All these thanks to @CallieMav after watching a ton of your battles, tweaks made to Voidmaw.
Added Special item pickup, the Void Mortar is a special item that can be dropped by any mob at the /warp end dungeon, when fired it will tell the dragon to come back down to the center portal for you to ground attack! The mortars don't do damage to the dragon and will auto expire themselves.
Added Voidmaw Immunity Table, this will allow more hits/damage to be taken by the dragon when multiple people battle Voidmaw. The way it works, is mobs have a NoDamageTick which they cant take damage in this time-frame, so if multiple people are attacking at the same time, some of those hits don't count as its part of the mobs global NoDamageTick, the Immunity Table enables NoDamageTick per player, not global per boss, which should allow multiple peoples attacks at the same time to do damage.
Improved damage modifiers on Voidmaw
Skill cleanup on Voidmaw boss, old skills removed that was trying to mange its position.
Reduced Void Shulker explosion damage
Changed Void enderman, skeleton & creeper have dynamic spawn amounts.

Website - Moved Hosts
Ive been putting this off for literally years because I knew how much of a faff this would be, and its been an absolute headache over the last few weeks, so many issues.
I moved the website to a new host, I'm paying the same price and doubled all resources, CPU basically went x10, Ram & storage doubled, network speed is more than double too.
I have a lot of work to do still, lots of things will be broken until i can get them moved over still such as changelogs & bans systems will be showing old data right now.
Ive popped this ahead of the queue as my contract comes up in early November and my old host wants a year paid up front, which is why each year I get the email reminder and put it off, dealing with a crappy host year after year, but this year I bit the bullet and got things started.
Lots more to do, please bare with me, I don't have much time at present with a newborn!
⏩ Speedier! You may have noticed the website is now lightning fast, this is due to the CPU's not being at 100% all of the time like previous, this will be the main thing you notice. 
This alone has been worth the effort.

@Changelog Alerts Proxy
Changed compression threshold to be lower, ideally this will compress more packets to send to your client to improve ping very slightly.
@Changelog Alerts Proxy
Updated main proxy server.
Created second proxy server separate from current one to test faster ping using a different network & to work as a backup in-case the main goes down.
Try it add test.piratemc.com to your server list; see if your /ping is improved. You are connected to a load balancer first nearest to you.
The test server has not moved, its still on the same server as the survival, the network changed for this.
I wanted a backup proxy that I can switch to if the main proxy goes down again, then all we need to wait for is DNS propagation.
️ Removed test server from main proxy, you will not be able to use /server test we cant have 2 proxies connect to the same server, that sounds like a disaster waiting to happen.
Test server has to be accessed via test.piratemc.com and none of the cross-server chat will work, just while I test this other proxy/network.
Tell me if it improves
On Survival use /survey and answer.
I will post a vote under this discord message for you to tell me if its an improvement, but I'm also doing an in-game /survey please make sure you leave your feedback on this as I will be mostly checking that for feedback not the discord vote, that's just secondary as there's a ton of people that don't even play on the server that will vote negative.
Downsides is, its expensive. If you want it, I will have to make a rank dedicated to paying for it, currently testing the free version.

Created the 6 images for July 2025 BOTM and put them up at /warp botm
Given out the individual paintings to each entrant and put into your inventory @iMiki @JCardell @Olveron @PhilipG_ @TobySF @Vedel
This means you will be able to copy these and do as you wish with the paintings!
This takes me hours to make these images, It seems to have worked to get more people submitting builds to BOTM! Ive given @TobySF my PSD template but for whatever reason if he cant do it, if you fancy helping out and have photoshop or similar its just a bunch of rules in the size of paintings to resize images into, ping Toby if you want to help.
Created /survey so you can leave you feedback for your favorite build!
This months will be a staff vote, but you can still vote for your favorite so we have a community vote via /survey, this allows for me to compare a staff vote vs a community vote, next month will be an entirely community vote win again.
You have to manually run /survey this time, we learnt from last time, if something pops up people will just click randomly or on the first option just to get rid of the screen, lots of people that voted couldn't be bothered to look at /warp botm. So manually have to open the vote option from now on.
Community vote is now Cadet to prevent alts voting in a bias way, enabled on this community vote.
How do I enter build of the month?
You just fill out this form and select a day in the month you wish to enter for, so you can submit a build for in a few months time if you wanted.

@Helper Added option to add or subtract jail time from the player, usage would be something like /jail GodsDead +10m to add 10 minutes and /jail GodsDead -10m to take away 10 minutes. If player isn't jailed and you want to add +10 minutes then he will be placed into jail for that time, so its safe to use on players who are not currently jailed. Same thing for trying to lower jail time for player who are not jailed, this action will not have any effect.

@Changelog Alerts Discord - Suggestions
Re-added #💡│suggestions
The old Workshop forum has been rebranded to #💡│suggestions to help keep ideas in one tidy place. Suggestions were popping up all over Discord, so this keeps everything organized and easier to manage. The Workshop was originally meant for players to submit content (e.g., event ideas, kits, builds).
Suggestions were removed before due to a few recurring issues — please read these before posting so you understand why a post might be removed without warning:
1) I already have a huge backlog of ideas and a clear priority list. The server’s been running for 13 years — there’s no shortage of ideas, just limited time to implement them. Were always open for staff to run plugins https://piratemc.com/information/team/
2) In the past, I ended up spending more time replying to suggestion threads than actually working on them. With tags, I can now quickly mark the status of each suggestion instead of writing long replies.
3) Please avoid writing essays or overly detailed “how to fix XYZ” posts — keep suggestions focused and straightforward.
4) Try not to suggest things that would take hundreds of hours to develop.
5) Don’t suggest complete overhauls or ideas that would turn PirateCraft into a totally different server.
6) “How to use ships more” ideas — I already have big plans for ships! That’ll come later.
The goal of reopening this is simply to keep Discord tidier and give everyone a clear place to share quick, actionable ideas.
️ Please keep suggestions short, simple, and practical — things that are realistic to implement.
I run PirateCraft in my spare time around family life, so concise and clear ideas are hugely appreciated.
If something’s broken, please use #🐛│bugs instead.

Re-creating all Crew chat channels on discord, Ive changed the method the Crew plugin uses to create crew->discord channels to be auto, next reboot, it should re-create all crew channels, its plagued with issues, and I want to test to see if this fixes them.
Archived all old crew chat channels

Removed Permission to manually create discord crew channel on discord, the cost was disabled at one point, so it was free anyway.

Lots of people missing this, so I'm posting it as its own changelog!
You can trade Voidling shards to fly in the sky up to the cloud, there's 3 of these around /warp end main island, so you can use these as ways to attack the dragon mid flight in the air!
You get voidling shards by killing Voidlings when you spawn the Voidmaw boss.

Trade for the Voidmaw custom painting! The Voidmaw Trophy trades NPC now lets you get your own copy of the paining hanging up behind /warp event
This is a 6x4 painting, its slightly bigger than the one at the back of the church, I made the church one smaller on invisible frames as I couldn't be bothered to rebuild the church!
This is a combined painting, which means its all packaged into one, once you place your 6x4, you right click it at the bottom left and it will auto fill all the frames, this also packs itself down when you break a painting back into a combined one!
This should prevent copying of the painting
This painting actually looks awesome as a rug in your base! or as decoration for a ceiling as well as on the wall!
All of the items to trade for this are dropped by mobs when fighting Voidmaw mini bosses.
Updated /motd to include the new 26 item drops from mobs.

Voidmaw - /warp end
Removed the spawner leash on Voidmaw dragon, which is the cause of it "pinging" back to the center, the idea was to keep the dragon closer to spawn & to make sure it comes back and dousnt just get stuck somewhere out in the void, but the vanilla dragon AI is so terrible this is causing more problems. I might still need to re-set it, just at a longer block range, it would be easier to make more options to make you fly to reach it, than the dragon reach you.
Use the portal to get to the cloud to teleport high up
Use potions to float
Attack the dragon, one of its skills makes you float
Use the NPC flights around the arena, these are briallant for airtime
Bring in an airship
Get a custom horse and launch yourself off the pillars
Steal someones Elytra
Submit more ways to get into the air in #🐲│voidmaw
Added a jump pad on one of the pillars that launches you straight up into the air, just happened to be a single glass block you can land on already there.
Any more jump pad ideas post them #🐲│voidmaw
@Changelog Alerts Survival
Voidmaw - /warp end
Buffed VoidlingShard to 50% from 15% drop
Modified the teleport skill of the Voidblade to use a condition to not teleport if you are standing in the spawn area (Where you go when you die) to hopefully prevent you getting targeted, killed then it teleports to you when you respawn! This is untested, so I'm not entirely sure if its working yet, please test for me!
Added 6 new custom items! Specific to VoidShulker & Voidblade drops, these mobs now have their own custom loot!
Added 3 new custom drops to the generic drop table bringing us up to 29 items in the general drop table, thanks to @Drbipper
Added Mob Drop Index NPC at /warp end so you can see all the drops, I've organized them into pages with titles for what drops you are looking at.
Custom Item count: We now have 29 general custom item drops, 8 custom drops from mini boss mobs, 8 from Voidmaw, 9 tradable (Including the map) for a total of 54 custom items to collect from this dungeon.
@Changelog Alerts Survival
Voidmaw - /warp end
Voidmaw Improved @CallieMav Worked his magic and fixed Voidmaw perching, height limit, teleport & mini boss mob spawning with one new skill.
If the Dragon gets too high, it will turn around and go back to the center or perch, without teleporting, so it naturally flys back to the center, this is a massive improvement over the vanilla dragon AI.
Voidmaw shouldn't get stuck in the clouds any more
Perches much more often for ground attacks
No more janky teleport like there on a leash
Mini boss mobs spawn much more frequently as you are closer to the dragon, therefor in range for them to spawn
Fixed Voidblade teleporting to you at the spawn point, they can still run to you, but wont teleport, this taught me how to check regions conditions in mythic!
Fixed item type that wasn't dropping correctly
@Changelog Alerts️ Website
Removed the website support system as it was never used, replaced it with a message to just use the #🚩│support_ticket support tickets on discord via https://piratemc.com/support/
We still have the forums for support if someone cant verify as a non-discord form of contact.
Fixed website loading.

Fixed Crew chat, again discord issue where the crew duplicated the crews chat so there was 2 of them, breaks it for everyone, not sure how, should be disabled for leaders to manually create now!
@Changelog Alerts Test Server
️ Crew War testing!
✨ In our freshly re-branded #💡│suggestions @OneAwesomeTurtle has signed themselves up to get some crews together to test how the Crew war system works, there is absolutely zero documentation on it, the only thing we have to go off is the config which Ive pinned in #deleted-channel and that's it.
So your goal as the community, is to prove to me the suggestions channel can work, and get testing, This is something I cant test solo! Find out how it works, look at the config Ive pinned to see what options we have, make suggestions for changes in that thread and lets see if its a feature we can use. There will definitely be improvements you will want, but focus needs to be on testing to see what we have off the bat.
Updated Test server world to match survival as of this message.
Updated Crew & Claims database, the two things you'll be needing.
️ All feedback goes into the thread, don't start asking for things not in the config, simple. #deleted-channel
@Changelog Alerts Survival
Re-added Iron_doors to Barracuda, Brig, Frigate, FrostBreaker, Galleon, Indiaman, KelpTrawler, Manowar & Seawolf ships. From the suggestion #deleted-channel Feedback can go into that thread.
Not adding to Dhow/Schooner/Barge as those are too low effort to make.
Can always revert if it causes too many issues, just a bit of fun.
@Changelog Alerts Survival
Voidmaw - /warp end
Added special pickup item! Void Mortar!
All these thanks to @CallieMav after watching a ton of your battles, tweaks made to Voidmaw.
Added Special item pickup, the Void Mortar is a special item that can be dropped by any mob at the /warp end dungeon, when fired it will tell the dragon to come back down to the center portal for you to ground attack! The mortars don't do damage to the dragon and will auto expire themselves.
Added Voidmaw Immunity Table, this will allow more hits/damage to be taken by the dragon when multiple people battle Voidmaw. The way it works, is mobs have a NoDamageTick which they cant take damage in this time-frame, so if multiple people are attacking at the same time, some of those hits don't count as its part of the mobs global NoDamageTick, the Immunity Table enables NoDamageTick per player, not global per boss, which should allow multiple peoples attacks at the same time to do damage.
Improved damage modifiers on Voidmaw
Skill cleanup on Voidmaw boss, old skills removed that was trying to mange its position.
Reduced Void Shulker explosion damage
Changed Void enderman, skeleton & creeper have dynamic spawn amounts.

️ Main world
Changed Slightly moved the /spawn to be on a solid block and not have something overhead.
@Changelog Alerts Website - Moved Hosts
Ive been putting this off for literally years because I knew how much of a faff this would be, and its been an absolute headache over the last few weeks, so many issues.
I moved the website to a new host, I'm paying the same price and doubled all resources, CPU basically went x10, Ram & storage doubled, network speed is more than double too.
I have a lot of work to do still, lots of things will be broken until i can get them moved over still such as changelogs & bans systems will be showing old data right now.
Ive popped this ahead of the queue as my contract comes up in early November and my old host wants a year paid up front, which is why each year I get the email reminder and put it off, dealing with a crappy host year after year, but this year I bit the bullet and got things started.
Lots more to do, please bare with me, I don't have much time at present with a newborn!
⏩ Speedier! You may have noticed the website is now lightning fast, this is due to the CPU's not being at 100% all of the time like previous, this will be the main thing you notice. This alone has been worth the effort.
@Changelog Alerts Website - Moved Hosts
Fixed ban website tracker updating
Fixed changelogs & announcement updating!
Upgraded the export software a few versions too, they still don't have a way to reverse the way chat messages are shown, still need to scroll down to the end of changelogs to see latest!
@Changelog Alerts Website - Moved Hosts
Added Crowd sourced IP blocklists, live log monitoring (for bad actors) for auto banning dodgy traffic.
I have been meaning to setup this security system & auto firewall for years and it was a learning curve! But its setup now monitoring all traffic, lets go!
Updated Monitoring software
Fixed real IPs being set to logs, I forgot to re-add this mod when I setup the system! Was all Proxy traffic.
Nearly done the "backend" stuff, this is a massive step that we never even had before, so it will be great to see what kind of stuff it blocks, then I can start cleaning up the mess of bot spam now this is in place.
