Hey everyone.Super excited to announce the new MiniUHC on Badlion today. In a short 48 hour turnover our development team pushed out the new updates to our UHC plugin to allow automatic UHC games to be run 24/7/365.
These games are currently available in NA/EU and will be available in AU in a few days (if they do well in the other regions).
Compared to Hosted UHC
The following features are setup in the MiniUHC's compared to our normal UHC's:
- Player Size is 32
- World Size is 500 radius (1000x1000 square)
- FFA/To2 Server Instances (you cannot /team solo in team games)
- A strong anti-xray system (random fake blocks are placed in areas where you cannot normally see)
- Anti-Strip Mining System (ores only spawn when touching an air block. It is impossible to strip mine valuable ores)
- Automatic Game-Mode creation. We create MiniUHC instances based on a weighted game mode system including Classic, CutClean, Horseless, Diamondess, and Goldless.
- GCheat is enabled
- Team colors are enabled above the player's heads and in the tab list (will be available for Hosted UHC's at a later date)
Donator Perks
- Same as SG. If the server is full a donator will kick a non-donator. If only donators and higher are on and a Donator+ tries joining he will kick a Donator, etc
- If you are on a team already you cannot be kicked (only applies to To2 MiniUHC)
- Donator+ can spectate the final 100 shrink
- Lion can spectate the whole map (500 radius)
The statistics for these games will be available at a later date. They are separate from the Hosted UHC's that we normally make available (the large games).
We will be rolling out more servers as the day goes on.
Please report any bugs below and enjoy.
EDIT: EU is currently limited availability due to hardware issues on our new server box. We are investigating the issues

When you say "Donator+ can spectate the final 100 shrink" do you mean they can rejoin the server when the border shrinks to 100? Or they can spectate the area of 100x100?Posted on 18 July 2015 - 09:37 PM
Now there is an X-Ray protection there arent really any ways people can cheat, so glad :^)Posted on 18 July 2015 - 10:16 PM

It's laggy as fuck which is bad for our Hosted 300+ man UHC servers.
Not to mention when a chunk misrenders your client goes haywire for a second.

I'm just waiting for EU servers to go up.Just finished a game on NA,it's really fun. :)Posted on 19 July 2015 - 12:49 AM
Will Lion ranks be able to whitelist one person, like on the regular UHC's?Posted on 19 July 2015 - 01:30 PM

My guess is that you'd be fine. The system probably only flags people who get these more than once in a while.

I'm really enjoying the mini UHCS. My favorite scenario is goldless diamondless because it really encourages snowballing and more of the pvp aspect. I noticed there's only one game of goldless diamondless running at the time. Please consider replacing one of the classic games (there's like 10 classic games) with another goldless diamondless game. :)
