Hi,

I read your topic minecraftforum.net everyday to follow mcserver c++ updates
Because we all ( servers's admins ) need a real minecraft server software without java.

It's so ridiculous we can not create a good server with more than ~40 players on it with the offical java-server without overloading a fucking single core of the most powerfull CPU on the market...

A good coded server in C++ with multithreads + SSE intructions could allow about 200 or 500 players.

So I have any questions for you :

- What do you think about the eventual possibilty to share it in open source in a near futur to be help by few devellopers ?

- Chikens on r172 seems to become friendly when we punch it, is it same as official server ?

- Why there is no more blocks after 6 blocsk under the ground ? like that :

- Are you going to fix flying-trees ?

Thank you again for your work !

Heys, to awnser some of the questions:
- r172 chickens; Afaik this is special behaviour (the following you around) please note that this could vanish in a future version (mobs are very much wip)
- 6 blocks; This is because the c++ server uses its own map renderer, this is still in development, maybe there will be some settings in a future version, but dont pin me (or fake) down on it
- Flying trees; This is just a bug in the map render, will be solved.

For the first question wait for a reply from fake

I know how to do SSE (not a pro though), but I don't think it's very applicable to a Minecraft server Maybe some small specific things.

So I have any questions for you :

- What do you think about the eventual possibilty to share it in open source in a near futur to be help by few devellopers ?

I think it's possible, but so far I've been doing fine on my own. I've already contacted someone about helping me though

- Chikens on r172 seems to become friendly when we punch it, is it same as official server ?

The chickens don't become friendly. The chickens follow you and stare at you. Ever seen the movie The Men Who Stare at Goats ? Yeah. They fuckin' stare at you until you die.

- Why there is no more blocks after 6 blocsk under the ground ? like that :

It depends on where you are. There are places you can dig all the way to the bedrock without finding any cave. The generation algorithm is however still in development.

- Are you going to fix flying-trees ?

Yes

Thank you again for your work !

Very welcome
