Ratings that resist friends, visits, trending, tags, hiding, and the pinned and sponsored rows.
/plot browse opens the gallery: every build, sorted as the viewer asks, with search, an
unrated filter, tag filters and a random visit.
Ratings
rating.conf:
| Key | Default | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
must-have-stood-for-seconds | 30 | How long in a plot before rating it |
wait-before-changing-seconds | 3600 | How long before a rating may change |
trending-half-life-days | 7 | How fast a vote or visit fades from trending |
trending-visit-weight | 0.5 | One fresh visit against one star of one fresh vote |
confidence-votes | 5 | Votes before the average is trusted; 0 uses the plain average |
confidence-average | 3.0 | What a plot is pulled towards until then |
categories | [] | Parts a vote is given in |
A rating counts only from a player who stood in the build, so friends rating from spawn do not outrank forty people who
walked round it. The rating order pulls a plot's average towards confidence-average until confidence-votes people
have said something. With categories named, /plot rate 5 scores every part and /plot rate part <part> <stars> one
of them; it is still one vote, at the mean. A part reads the line category.<id> of the language file.
Visits
visits {
count-after-seconds = 15
count-again-after-seconds = 3600
sweep-every-seconds = 10
}
A visit is a different person who stayed 15 seconds, counted again after an hour; the owner and members never count.
Tags
catalogues/tags.conf lists the words a plot may wear, in the order offered, up to max-per-plot (4): medieval,
modern, fantasy, redstone, farm, interior, terrain, pixel-art, minigame, spawn, work-in-progress.
Each has an id, a word, an icon and a permission (empty for everybody). A tag removed from the file stops being
offered and plots wearing it are left alone.
Hiding
/plot hide keeps a plot out of the gallery and off every board.
Pinned and sponsored rows
featured {
pinned-slots = 9
sponsored-slots = 9
sponsored-hours = 168
sponsored-currency = ""
sponsored-price = 2500
}
Two rows above the ranking. Staff pin a build with /uxmplots pin; a player buys a sponsored place with
/plot sponsor buy. Neither feeds the ranking and nothing bought moves a build up it. The pinned row reads in the order
staff added; the sponsored row is shuffled on every draw. No currency means nothing is for sale; zero slots turns a row
off.
