Hopper Changes

Effective immediately, hoppers are uncraftable.

This is an issue that we have been putting off for a while now, but it's come to the point that the massive amount of hoppers (which used to be cheap and easy to craft) are causing lag on the server due to how they are used in massive farms.

This change brings a price increase in hoppers, as well.

You can now, however, sell your hoppers back to the server. You will get $2500 for each hopper you sell. Go to the redstone shop at the mall (Roger) to sell hoppers.

I believe this is honestly a great idea.

This will actually incentivize raiding as there is genuine gain from assets in raiding automatic farms to reap hoppers.

An interesting change, and a step in the right direction. While this change doesn't directly affect farms which already utilize hoppers in mass amounts, it will help prevent future farms that could otherwise lag the server; thus, giving the server more room to breath long-term.

Hopefully future changes will further encourage more manual farming.
