    A mining world with quarrys and all that map destroying stuff limited to only that world would be nice for the new alice

    yeah, way less lag, just so long as you have sign lag fix (is also fixes lag from IC2 EU going through wires)

    It would cause more lag because the server would have to generate a second map.

    It would be considerable more load on the server, which is why we dropped our previous mining worlds last time (since the gain at the time was minimal). But as you heard, I was planning to consider it.

    I'm just spitballin here but a mining world should be tested on a server with the exact or close to the same java heap allocation and basically a copy of alice server files then you ask people if they want to test a mining world for stress test whatever whatever join blah server or you guys can just test it internally but there are only so many admins so you might not get an accurate test due to the lack of players that can test. More players = more bug finders. If you do get a mining world thou, one bug in ic2 in multiworlds is that the machine's rotation will never be the same when you relog but i'm sure you can fix that in a whif Of the wind :p
