Soup's Quest

A Soup Too Far
Journey to 8K out in each cardinal direction without the aid of portals/nether travel [snip]

Could we hold off on this one until after the 1.2 patch? I'd like to see jungles generated in that land. Not just for Soup Quest but also because I'd like to build a base in a jungle.

I already took a trip out 7.5K to the north and 7.5K out NW trying to find a cow island. You can see the loop I did on the map. I'll try to keep my wanderlust in check until the patch.

This was during the first month the server was out when everything was pretty new....way before any rumblings of the new biomes and before mapping. I apologize for any problems.

One thing to note soup...depending on what you decide to do for your quests.... is that I recall Stevo posting a rule about trying to stay within 8K in any direction. So if you do decide to do a Soup Too Far, etc, maybe go no further then 7.8K so you don't spawn any chunks at the 8Km limit.

I do, in fact, remember this rule, so we should be alright XP

By Stevo's rules you could go out to 8k. It didn't matter that a few chunks beyond it were generated. The only reason we had that was because the mapping software started to crash. I think since then Stevo figured out how to tell the software to only map within defined coords.

Also since the giant oceans were added, Stevo upped the limit to 12k, at least on TV10.

I suppose I should inquire about this

Yeah, the numbers I'm quoting were on Stevo's server, TV10. Dog may have different rules for TV5.
