We've said this a couple of times before, but now we are back for real!! It's been another 2 years since the last post and playtest, but we've decided that enough is enough.
We will be releasing RackMC as an Open Beta starting March 16th, 2026!
What does this mean for RackMC? We will be launching our server network with the Lands server and the Creative server, as well as events from time to time. These main two server will be accessible as close to 24/7 as possible (There may be downtime due to updates or bug fixes). We still do not have an official launch date and probably won't for some time, but we wanted to get something out after all of these years.
Because this is an early access server, there will be bugs, missing features, and potentially game breaking issues. The best thing to do is to report any bugs to staff members via discord and we will get them fixed as soon as possible. We also do not plan to do any form of wipe for both Lands and Creative until the official launch of the network (This is subject to change and will be announced ahead of time if it comes to it).
Lands Playtest Info
As mentioned above, we will be doing a 3rd Lands playtest. If you would like to view all the commands, go to our documentation, or even the official lands documentation. This will purely be a list of features and other info
Raw Copper Economy
The way this currently works is the raw copper item is what is used to buy, sell, and trade with players, as well as purchase and upkeep lands. The idea is you mine for raw copper and then you can sell it using a shop at spawn to get "digital copper", which is then used for lands purchases, chest shops, the auction house, and more.
As the development goes on, we plan to also all copper collected from land purchases and upkeep to go into a server account that will be redistributed back to the players via jobs. Unfortunately this is not how it will work in the first implementation.
If you have any issues, confusion, or suggestions, let us know by opening a ticket in our discord.
