Arctic Mills: Difference between revisions

Arctic Mills was officially closed by SC operators in November 2018, after Zaid's ban from SBC. Several weeks later, it was demolished in a [https://youtu.be/VIn3LQoZ-5U controlled demolition] carried out by [[sbl]], [[OWM]], and [[HawkbitAlpha]]. However, prior to its demolition, a complete copy of the mall and its surroundings was also placed on the map far outside of Spongecraftia limits; in the post-closure public release of the [[Spongecraftia]] map, a portal in a corner of the [[Grand Spongecraftia Directory]] named "Arctic Mills Museum" will teleport players to it.

In August 2024, shortly after Spongecraftia was revived as a second map for [[SpongeCraft Frontiers]], Hawkbit used WorldEdit on the "Museum" copy of Arctic Mills, restoring it to its original plot of land in Arctic Spongecraftia, where it remains on the server today. Since Zaid's return to SBC in the same month, he has also returned to developing the mall at its original location, radically changing almost every aspect of its design to "bring [it] up to code". The "1.0" version of the mall as shown in the "Museum" portal also remains outside of the map limits, permanently protected by WorldGuard.

Zaid would continue working on Arctic Mills since, adding new hallways, demolishing older buildings and redoing others, he has even opted to add stuff around the mall area, like a new Dunkin' Donuts building (replacing the original on the old build) and a planned older style outdoor shopping center nearby.
