Yea were using bukkit. We have Craftbook so you can have gates that open and close, elevators. I will look into the Wand/Spell mod today.
We just got done making the spawn after spending all day yesterday on it. The spawn has a Nether shop so you can trade your useless sulpher in to get nether items. A cake room that we will fill up if empty, so if your hurt at night you can spawn and come eat some cake. The server is mostly islands so we have a boat dock with free boats. Server board so if there are any events being held we will post them(you can hold your own also and post it). Stargate room that will have portals to other locations(towns and stuff the community makes).
In tue future once the server is up i plan on making a PVP Arena where you can fight other players for prizes, join tournaments held and win even bigger prizes. RMXPU members will be able to win points on this site if they wish instead of ingame prizes. I also want to have a PVP zone somewhere for clan wars and such.
Thats just a little peice of the cake on what to expect.
