1.13 Has Very Bad Backwards Compatibility?

  1. 5 years ago

    Not sure how many people are keeping up with the development of 1.13, but if you have you will have noticed by now how badly this update is reported to break pre 1.13 maps. Its not just the new land gen and the reworked water mechanics. The command system and ALL of the games block IDs are being completely reworked also.

    As to why im making a post about this, well I have been seeing server players and staff alike talking about a new map like its an "if" when it looks to be a "when". It really seems like the options are going to be between staying in 1.12 and getting a fresh map that the update will not bork to hell.

    Any input by server staff on this would be greatly appreciated. Otherwise it feels like the server in general needs to have a talk about it. The odd poll or request for info on a new map doesn't seem to get far enough into the meat of the matter for any real resolution on it.

  2. Hmmm... This sounds familuar...
