## Welcome (back) everyone!!

--------------------------------------------------------------------

we got a quite a bit of server power here at Skynet

<img src="6_minecraft-onboarding/skynet-server.jpg" alt="Computer Society definitely not evil servers" width="120px" height="160px"></img>
### so we decided to use some of that for evil (Minecraft servers)*
<p style="font-size: 10px"> *we are not liable for failing stuff bc you stayed up until 4am to finish building your castle </p> 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

### soooo, how do you get access to our Minecraft servers?
there are a few easy steps involved

---------------------------------------------------------------------

### first of all you have to be in the CompSoc discord server
link here: [discord.skynet.ie](https://discord.skynet.ie/)

or you can find it on the society's page on the UL Wolves website

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

### next you need to have your discord account linked to your ul wolves account

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

### and finally!! you need to link your Minecraft account like this

(you can use the ``#bot-commands`` channel to not spam everyone)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

## but what's the ip??

------------------------------------------------

### we actually got 2 servers you can play on!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

## first one is a vanilla 1.20.4 server, but you can join from most versions past and future even though not all features might work

seriously! i usually play from 1.21 and it also worked when i joined from 1.8.9

the address of the server is **minecraft.compsoc.games.skynet.ie**

if you want to join from bedrock edition: ip is **193.1.99.91** and the port is **19132**

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

### for this server i made a modpack that enhances the multiplayer experience a bit nothing big AND you DON'T NEED to have it to play

you can find it on [Modrinth.com](https://www.modrinth.com) and search for [CompSoc Vanilla Enhanced](https://modrinth.com/modpack/compsoc-vanilla-enhanced) (or click the links here)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

## second server is using the Aged modpack version 2.2.2

will let you know if we update, check the discord server

the address of the server is **minecraft-aged.compsoc.games.skynet.ie**

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

### you can find the modpack for this server by searching for "Aged" on [Modrinth.com](https://www.modrinth.com) 

remember to download the right version of the modpack, which is currently 2.2.2!!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

## That's it have fun!
