Attention: I’ve been burning the midnight oil working on a new map for Terraria. It will be up today. (For those who have a lot of work on the current map, don’t fear I will have a link for you to download the world as well)</p>
<p>The new map has several new changes, most notably randomly spawned bosses, while I was attempting to fix an sql error that didn’t allow players to transfer groups, so they could summon bosses with items, I decided to remedy the issue by having bosses spawn in certain regions on certain random timers.</p>
<p>This will make the game play slower, more methodical and make you want to be on at the right time.</p>
<p>The players will know when bosses will be spawned. as players will see “The Summoner” login, spawn a boss. and within 10 seconds log out. This scripted player has a 15% chance to show up each day.</p>
<p>This design will have a prolonging effect on the maps, it will also let other players spawn in and build up with out too much of a worry about hard mode kicking in too soon, or players be much more advanced.</p>
<p>As time goes on, I will be initiating a more mobs mod, that will have 2 more bosses, equal to the strength of Plantera. I will script these bosses to drop what I want rather than what the old scripter has programmed for them to drop.</p>
<p>Please welcome yourself to the new Terraria map, everyone is welcome.</p>
<p>Please see the 1st page for details and password : jackalsden. </p>
<p>Rules Cont.</p>
<p>New characters only. vaults are not allowed, piggy banks are not allowed. </p>
<p>Don’t fear this will not be an issue, as players now have the ability to BOX their areas to protect other players from even entering if they wish. or you could just draw a box around your chests.</p>
<p>No vaults, or piggy banks as they hold items from previous maps and are universal. from what I understand.</p>
<p>If the slowness of progression doesn’t suit your fancy and you want it to be fast and over with, than I think a single player world would suit you better, however if you want to be creative enjoy other peoples company, and enjoy a slower progression based around building, exploring and finding more of your own items, over grinding bosses. Than I think this is the place for you.</p>

You don’t have to protect anything, and I don’t think anyone is likely to steal at anyrate, however should you want to protect yourself. Check out the link.

Also please read the signs as you enter the new map today.

Good evening everyone, thanks for reading. I’ve set up a Hardcore Only mode.
This entails new Hardcore Characters, No Safes or piggy banks.

Rules: Create a new character with hardcore status, please do not use piggy banks or safes to bring other items into this world.

Honor Rule: If you die you may create a brand new character, but you’re not allowed to recover your old items, if you do find your old items later, please destroy them. I can’t account for this, but I hope you stay honorable.

That’s basically it, This will make your exploring much more tedious and fun, it puts you into a brand new mind set when playing terraria. Normally on a single player you must exit and make a new character so your items are gone, This map is always on, this is why I ask that you don’t recover any items even currency and should you run into it please destroy it.

Thank you.

Having played the game on the server on hardmode starting out, would like to see a game where we progress new characters from normal to hard. I’ve been playing a lot of offline normal just simply because I’ve wanted to experience the entire game first hand. Just was a thought.
