And the update is apparently happening this month!
The problem with Griefing has been going on since the game's creation - while many people enjoyed playing the game, and currently enjoy playing the game, many were turned off. It's one thing to create something cool, but it's another when someone is standing by to destroy it.
According to the website, "... So no one except you (the owner of the Rented Chunk) will destroy your creations in the next game version! Imagine all your houses, flats, creations will be saved and not grieved anymore! November, 2015! When you click on the Rent Chunk button, you will see the screen with all Chunks that are visible in your View Distance range, the status of these Chunks, compass and your position in the Planet!"
Planet of Cubes staff will have the Chunks marked by the following statuses:
- Grey Color - Available - Chunks that you can Rent
- Green Color - Selected - The chunks that you've just selected
- Yellow Color - Your Chunk - The chunks that you've just Rented
- Orange Color - Occupied - These Chunks were Rented by another players
- Red Color - Spawn Chunk - This is Spawn area where no one can built!
