The '''Apocalypse Exploit''' is an exploit that was discovered by the players [[fr1kin]], [[babbaj]], and [[0x22]] in late March 2017. The exploit creates a situation in which a player is in multiple places at once (player superposition). Because of this, a player using the exploit was able to load twice as many chunks as they would normally, in addition to making the server constantly divide the player's position by 8 until it crashed due to the number getting too long (eg. if the outcome was 3, the server would keep adding additional 3s until it would crash).
