    To me the latest and greatest is always best, so 1.13.2 it is. The new command set, datapacks and of course all the watery stuff are really dealbreakers to me. Of course the only downside (or would that be a pro?) is that hardly any server already supports it. Which suits me just fine because even though OptiFine has finally been released for 1.13.2 I still get better performance on 1.12.2.

    Seems likely that either the realm(s) expired or that those players removed it from their list of realms (so they're no longer registered).

    I'm not very excited about the difficulty settings in Minecraft because it doesn't really change much. At best you'll get more damage dealt by hostiles and less recovery from food but that doesn't really change the game.

    Instead I enjoy using a specific set of armor which I discovered thanks to my previous server. A set of unbreaking leather armor which has a few enchantments on it to compensate for the lower protection level. Basically if you wear this set of armor you can survive a creeper blast if you're lucky, but not if blows up right next to you. For me this really adds some new difficulty into the game.

    Hmm, I don't really 'hate' anything because to me Minecraft is a game that tries to appeal to a large variety of players. So obviously it'll have things in it which I might don't necessarily enjoy.

    Still... I do think it's annoying how the recipe book isn't exactly consistent. It has the recipes in it to craft tools, blocks, utilities but when it comes to having fun (fireworks or dye's) then we're left to fend for ourselves again. What's up with that?

    What version is this? And what happens if you press F3?

    This looks a bit scripted to me, unless you somehow record all your gaming sessions of course ;) Please note that I'm not claiming that it is, but everything you experienced can be explained. Blocks not dropping items can be controlled by a gamerule, the chest can be locked and nether teleportation can also be controlled.

    However... Does your world always start in the way you showed here? So every time you load it you die in the nether and then the rest happens? So if you close your game after having tried the nether portal and then reload it again, where do you spawn? The nether or the overworld?

    If the answer is the nether again then I don't think the problem lies with Minecraft but with your computer, possibly your harddisk. It almost looks as if Minecraft can't write any data to your disks for whatever reason, which would obviously cause a few problems. I'd start looking there.

    Can't be done. The problem is that Minecraft doesn't know the concept of variables, the thing which you do have in regular programming (or scripting) languages.

    The workaround would be to add commands which check for each value(s) of the score you need and apply the command you want to execute in a static way.

    What Minecraft version? Also: are you using the default launcher? Did you change any options?

    /kill @e[type=armor_stand,distance=..5]

    Less typing; this kills every armor stand within a radius of 5 blocks. I'm lazy like that ;)

    Bottom line though, you don't have to worry about this being some kind of signal that you're getting hacked. As mentioned: a server can change a lot about your client.

    First of all: I'm not a fan of mixing politics or any other "real life stuff" into gaming, not a fan at all, because I game to get distracted from that real world in the first place. I mention this simply for context.

    But yeah, why would you set something like this up and separate yourself from a community which is already highly inclusive? It makes no sense to me. See: many people yell about equality and such but then immediately move themselves into a role (or position) which automatically separates themselves from the rest again. So much for equality?

    I see the same stuff here, and I'm not impressed.

    Most gaming communities, including Minecraft, are highly inclusive. When you log onto a Minecraft server it doesn't matter if you're a boy, a girl, a man, a woman, a senior citizen or heck: even an alt (= a Minecraft account operated by another player next to their own account). People don't care about your gender, your sexual preferences, your political believes nor your financial or social status in the real world because within gaming none of that matters in the first place.

    If there is any place where people get treated the same despite what they are it's online within gaming and tech communities.

    Please note though: I'm not saying that I oppose this idea, I don't, but I do believe it could send out a wrong signal. Instead of trying to separate yourself from the rest, why not join the server(s) you like best and enjoy your escape from the real world problems while focusing on something different for a change?

    As always just my 2 cents.

    What exactly is the error message? If this is about permissions then you obviously made a mistake there. My theory: you set "per-warp-permission" on but then only seem to allow the essentials.warp permission node. That's obviously incorrect: you need to provide permissions for every warp you set up.

    I don't know from mind how that works but the plugins documentation should explain that part.

    Instead of telling the OP to "RTFM" why not try to actually help him out instead? Does Google work; sort off, there is a lot of bad advice out there. Also: you cannot assume that your Google search results will be the same as the OP. So just sending him off to Google is IMO just bad & lazy advice.

    So.. how to start with a server....

    It's easier than it may seem. Start your launcher, open the menu (click on the three lines in the upper right corner) and then check the "Launch options" tab. You should have an entry called "Latest release", click on it and you'll find a link called "Download server" in the upper right corner. Click on that too and now you'll get the actual server jarfile.

    Next step: be sure that you installed Java in a proper way. Then move the jarfile you downloaded in a separate (new) directory and double click on it. It should now open up a window and start up. For a quick moment anyway, because it will also automatically stop again.

    You'll notice that it has created some files. Edit "eula.txt" and change false to true. Then re-start the server.

    Eventually you'll end up with something like this (other than the browser window and such of course ;)):



    Congratulations, you're running your own server at this point. Be sure to check the contents of that directory because you'll have a lot more files now. Especially "server.properties" can be a good study because that allows you to re-configure your server.

    For more information I'd like to point you to the tutorial on the Minecraft wiki here, and this page can help you to learn more about that server.properties file.

    Hope this helps you out a bit!

    When did this happen? If you were playing on a server then it's probably something related to that server, they can easily alter stuff on your screen. If you've been playing in single player... I dunno; maybe you played around with the /bossbar command?

    Nothing naturally, but you could use spawners. Normally spawners work at a rather high rate and can fill up a room with mobs in no time, but you can actually customize all that if you want.

    If you want to run it with Forge you don't need to unpack it. Just put it into the mods folder like any other mod, so only the jarfile. The rest will happen automatically.

    Double clicking on a jarfile will basically trigger whatever program got associated with that, so I assume that's an archiver in your case. The easiest way to undo this is by re-installing Java. That should also re-associate Java with the .jar extension, which means that the program will actually run once you double clicked it.

    Why Forge though? You don't need Forge in order to run OptiFine.

    Basically you can install OptiFine in 2 ways, depending on your usage. To get it to work with vanilla Minecraft you need to start the installer. If you have Java properly setup you can simply double click the jarfile, and then the installer should show. This will install OptiFine and create a new launcher profile. That is... if you tell it to. You can also choose to 'Extract' OptiFine but other than unpacking it doesn't really do anything.

    The second way to install it applies if you're running a mod loader such as Forge. In that case you can simply copy the jarfile to your 'mods' folder (in your Minecraft folder) and you're done. It won't create a new launcher because there's no need: OptiFine will be used as a mod within Forge. So you'd fire up Forge and not OptiFine directly.

    Hope this can help!

    Solely judging from the error message I'd say that the NBT editor didn't do a good job and somewhat corrupted the file. By the way: instead of relying on a vague online editor it might be a better idea to use a tool such as NBT Explorer, it'll definitely be much more reliable.

    Still, in the end this is basically a rather crude hack and you'll probably get much better results by using in-game options such as the /tp command.

    Are you by any chance also using OptiFine? This seems more related to a graphical related problem than LiteLoader.

    You probably need a newer version of Forge, upgrade it and then try again.

    Silk touch is usually your friend. I'm not exactly sure what blocks you're referring to though but this should work.
