Grand Theft Minecart

Hey guys. So maybe this patch doesn't sound like a very big deal from its name "Bugs & Improvements" but internally this was a huge patch! Although true that there were no "big things" added in this patch, truth is, we fixed dozens upon dozens of long-standing bugs and issues as well added minor improvements here and there. In fact, this update fixed over 90% of all known bugs! There are lots of fixes and improvements for me to cover so let's get started without further due...!


We are starting this Patch by listing all the improvements to game mechanics during this patch.

1. Weapon improvements & changes:

• We have re-coded much of the block detection mechanics when shooting a weapon. This allows for significantly better block hitbox detection and even fixes the infamous "glass pane bug" where players were unable to shoot weapons when inside glass panes.
• When shooting leaves, 50% of bullets will now make it through per leaf block

2. Voting Improvements:

• Voting is no longer caps-sensitive. Feel free to use weird capitals when voting now. You will still get your rewards!
• Improvements to offline voting! When voting offline, you will now still receive your voter...

Buyable staff ranks. It is exactly what the title says. Today folks, after months of planning, preparation, and revision, we are finally ready to announce, that effective immediately, Staff Ranks will now be up for sale on our store at https://store.grandtheftmc.net. With that said, we are no longer accepting helper applications on our site, and starting today, rank upgrades will only be offered to purchasers. Seriously? Yes. Seriously. GTM has decided to make the following ranks purchasable to (almost) any member of the community willing to pay for it:

• HELPER - $400 [$200 Rank Upgrade from SUPREME]
• MOD - $800 [$400 Rank Upgrade from HELPER]
• SRMOD - $1350 [$550 Rank Upgrade from MOD]
• ADMIN - $3200 [$1850 Rank Upgrade from SRMOD]

* Note: Manager rank is not purchasable. It will only be rewarded to hard-working admins. Manager is an important rank that can not simply be purchased.

The rest of this thread will cover the reasons to why we decided to make staff ranks purchasable, how will we make this work, limitations on who can purchase staff, explaining the process of purchasing a staff rank, and explaining merit-based staff rank discount codes....
