Greetings LemonCloud!

On Saturday 25th May, a huge revamp is coming to Prison! Per our usual release times, we plan to launch the new server at 8PM BST / 3PM EST. Click here to see when that is in your time zone.

I want to thank the community members who voiced their suggestions on Discord. All the ideas helped us in shaping this update 😄

Let's get right into it and announce what to expect!

Spawn & Mines 🏰

• The server has been redecorated with a new spawn and 27 new mines
• The new spawn features a built-in PvP arena with a KoTH capture point
• Added a podium for the top 3 gangs with their leaders as NPCs
• Mines no longer reset automatically. Players can now click on an NPC (or type /resetmine <name>) to request a mine reset when at least 25% has been mined. This allows players to 100% empty mines if they wish to or reset them early at only 25% mined

Rank Mines ⛏️

We're excited to introduce new features for our ranked players! Each rank now has access to dedicated warp points where they can mine and sell specific blocks at premium rates:

• Coal Rank: Access /warp coal to mine and sell Coal Blocks at higher prices.
• Iron Rank: Use /warp iron to mine Iron Blocks and sell them for the best deals.
• Gold Rank: Visit /warp gold to mine and trade Gold Blocks at premium rates.
• Diamond Rank: Head to /warp diamond to mine and sell Diamond Blocks lucratively.
• Emerald Rank: Check out /warp emerald to mine Emerald Blocks and maximize your profits.
• Netherite Rank: Enjoy the benefits of /warp netherite where you can mine and sell Netherite Blocks at premium prices.

Enchantments 🔮

• All pickaxes now have Efficiency 100 by default and removed Efficiency from the enchanter
• All pickaxes no longer have Fortune by default
• Fortune can now be disenchanted
• Chance or Multiplier information is now displayed in the enchanter menu. This means you can see the activation chance of each enchantment
• New enchantment: Laser - a chance to activate laser mining mode
• New enchantment: Storm - a chance for lightning to strike and destroy blocks around you
• Explosive is now a chance to cause a large explosion
• Greed is now a chance to yield double as many tokens
• Trench and Explosive can now be used together
• Tokens are now given when blocks are destroyed by a pickaxe enchant
• All enchantments now have 100 levels except the potion effect ones (Speed, Jump, Haste)

Prestige 🏆

• There are now 100 prestiges
• Prestige now gives you extra rewards, including Epic and Legendary crate keys, Nukes, and Tokens

Bombs 💣

• There's now simply two tiers of bombs: Grenade and Nuke
• Grenades and Nukes both have a built-in multiplier effect, matching the multiplier of the max level of Fortune
• After throwing a bomb, you now get an on-screen popup explaining how many blocks you destroyed and how much money you made

Plots 🌲

• Plots have increased from 32 x 32 to 35 x 35, providing a centre block
• Chest shops now use the classic plugin (type /chestshop for a tutorial)

Gangs 💪

• Added a new Gangs Top leaderboard that orders all gangs by weekly blocks mined. Type /g top
• The top 3 gangs each week are automatically awarded with 25 Lemons, 15 Lemons, and 10 Lemons

Robots 🤖

Robots now make an appearance on Prison! Robots earn you money automatically, allowing you to progress faster.

• There are 6 tiers of robots: Coal, Iron, Gold, Diamond, Emerald, and Netherite
• Robots wear their respective tier's armor
• Robot Cores can be fused together. For example, 2x Coal cores can be fused into 1x Iron core
• Robot parts can be obtained from the Robot Crate
• Put parts together in the robot crafter to build a robot
• Place robots anywhere on your plot
• Robots magically excavate ores from another dimension and automatically pay you
• Robots match your personal sell multiplier
• You can see your Earn Rate (per second) on the sidebar
• Farm crops and animals to obtain batteries from the biofuel generator

Other 📝

• There is no longer a separate resource pack for prison
• Mines no longer use custom blocks. This provides bedrock users a much better experience (we may revisit this in future when Minecraft has better support for custom blocks)
• Flight now stays enabled when switching worlds
• Added chat broadcasts to educate newcomers about the server
• All crates have been revamped
• Heavily reduced usage of "rankup percentage" rewards to avoid encouraging an economy around opening keys
• Removed sound effect from Explosive
• Chat games now reward an Epic Crate Key
• If you are at spawn, in the plot world, or a premium rank mine, you won't be automatically teleported upon ranking up
• Added mob spawn eggs and farming items to the shop
• You can teleport directly into your plot mine by typing /mine plot
• Fixed a bug where custom enchantments could be obtained via enchantment tables, villagers etc
