Also if you want me to help you, I'd like your launcher.log file... Otherwise it's hard to give you advice.

Are you sure you're checking in your Documents\Blockland folder and not your Program Files\Blockland folder?

Help / Re: Dedicated Server enables all add-ons!

« on: November 25, 2011, 09:56:03 AM »

All you have to do to fix the problem is open ADD_ON_LIST.cs which is located in your Blockland\config\server folder and change all the values of the add-ons you do not wish to use to -1.

For example, let's say you don't want to have Gun enabled, you change

Code: [Select]

$AddOn__Weapon_Gun = "1";to

Code: [Select]

$AddOn__Weapon_Gun = "-1";
Note that you have to do this every time before opening a dedicated server.

Post your launcher.log which is located in your Blockland folder, along with a screenshot of the error message.

Help / Re: Where is the Dedicated Server file as of v20?

« on: November 24, 2011, 09:59:16 AM »

***The folder which contains the launcher, not the game... It is probably located in C:\Program Files\Blockland if you haven't changed the installation path on the installer.

I'd really like to know.

It was removed because it is no longer needed, you can run a dedicated server from a shortcut which can be created via the installer.

If you didn't command the installer to copy the dedicated server shortcuts, you can download this file and put it in your Blockland folder to run a dedicated server like you did in older versions.

Here's an exact image of the error I get when I start Blockland:

This may be a problem with the way a recent update was compiled.  I think I have fixed it.  Try running the launcher again now.

I have the same problem as OP, the most recent update doesn't seem to fix the problem though.

Modification Help / Re: return;

« on: October 27, 2011, 11:27:08 AM »

I don't see what's wrong with Mega's answer? He explained exactly what return does...


In case he was unclear, return does exit the function... However it can also, in simple terms, transport a value from a function to another function if a value is inserted in front of "return". For example:

Code: [Select]

function lol()
{
     return ":I";
}

function echoLol()
{
     %valueFromLolFunction = lol();
     echo(%valueFromLolFunction);
}
When the "lol" function is called from the "echoLol" function, the value ":I" is returned to the "lol" function and is echoed into the console.

General Discussion / Re: General has failed me.

« on: September 02, 2011, 09:26:26 PM »

There are a couple of things that I'd like to mention...

My buddy Owen (who I mentioned before, not by name though) was able to see everything just fine

If only you see these screw-up's in the server, it is likely that your own computer is what is failing at running the mod correctly...

tl;dr Adjustable Plate forgeted up lighting for me until I deleted it.

Adjustable Plate does not and can not mess with the lighting on other maps, it's practically impossible. The mod technically "does not exist" on the game unless you are playing in the map itself.

All I have to say is that General has lost five respect points, nothing big.

Sorry for spending free time on a mod which I get no profit from whatsoever.



Also, I'll leave this here;
Adjustable Plates does not use any out of the ordinary or dodgy code, you cannot simply assume that it does just because nothing like this was thought of or created in the past. Changing the map's settings is no different than destroying and planting a couple of bricks in the game, but instead of with bricks, with other objects. Any experienced Blockland scripter will understand why I say this if they were to read my code. I am however, not dismissing the fact that there might be an issue involving my map, but if there is, it is almost definitely out of my reach to fix and is probably an issue with Blockland's game engine and the way it works on your computer.

Maps / Re: Adjustable Plate

I am pretty sure it is not possible, I might be wrong...

EDIT: I am 99.9% sure it is not possible, the client has to generate a new ML file for every map update. It would require engine changes to get it to work efficiently or even work at all.

Maps / Re: Adjustable Plate

« on: July 17, 2011, 02:33:15 PM »

Do this for Bedroom or Slopes. I'd love to have a post apocolpyic sky on frozen terrain.

I don't think it's possible with maps which have interior instances or terrain blocks, as their lighting is generated when the map is loaded, not when the object is spawned.

Do mind if I use parts of this for maps in the future? Because this is brilliant.
Upload to RTB and this would make Exceptional Maps faster than you could say EPIC.

EDIT: Wait, YOU CAN CHANGE THE SOUND???????? This is even better than I thought!

What do you mean by "parts"? If what you mean is that you wish to create a map which can be adjusted in-game, that is fine... However, I would not be too happy with my work being copied, such as the GUIs etc.

But does it work on other maps too?

Nope, it only works on this map

Can we make our own skyboxes and all that stuff?

You cannot add custom content. However, I was planning on implementing that concept but decided not to as it would be buggy. I might sometime in the future if I find an efficient way to make it.

Oh my god. I've been using this for the campus, it crashes alot but it nice.

May I have some details on the crash? I can't seem to duplicate it on my copy

Does this require plate, plate 2 or plate 3?

Requires no Add-On, runs solely on this.

I'd love badspot to add this.

Btw General, are you by any chance a god or king?

Never was, probably never will be ;p
