tbh the way ty/ did companies was a lot easier and more simple
you could pay 10-20k to buy shares for a company and you'd get like triple that or smth every day

Yeah, but then you don't have a reason to build an office/mine/lumberyard/...
My way would be more dynamic and promote inter-player RP.

I am going to try to make some jobs more interactive, and I would like to add some new jobs.
If you're playing on the server and you come up with a brilliant job idea, post it here so it's easy to keep track of.

How about an office worker.
Like a laborer, but instead of mining ore with a pickaxe, you "sign" papers with a pen.

A more advanced job would being able to start your own company.
You can start your own mine, lumberyard, office, ... by buying the resource blocks for your lot
And for every player mining your ores, you get a percentage.

Could you maybe enable some wedge bricks to this server?
I love working with them, they make builds look more detailed by allowing you to do diagonal walls. Makes buildings don't look so square.
Just the normal wedges would do fine.

Your computers IP probably changed. This happens every so often.

Change it into a static IP and redo the Port Forwarding with the new IP.

Yup, firewall issue.
Disable it to test if it works.
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/instantanswers/c9955ad9-1239-4cb2-988c-982f851617ed/turn-windows-firewall-on-or-off

But re-enable it afterwards!

Then add an exception for Blockland:
http://www.dummies.com/computers/operating-systems/windows-7/how-to-allow-programs-through-the-windows-7-firewall/

It should already be on the list, so just allow it on private networks.
Unless your network is set up to be public, in which case, change it.

Follow this guide it is better:
https://portforward.com/router.htm

Make sure to disable UPnP everywhere. Blockland and your router.

Also give your computer a static IP.

Help / Re: My ping is ---

« on: April 14, 2017, 11:38:39 AM »

You won't get rid of the --- ping without port forwarding.

From what I understand, UPnP simply brute forces itself on your server.
When someone wants to connect to your server, they send a broadcast from your router to all available devices to see which one is running a Blockland server on a specific port and then connects to it.

The Ping protocol can't use this, so it won't get a response back. It simply stops at the router and doesn't know where to go next.

Port Forwarding is telling your router to what IP to send incoming Blockland-port request. So it sends it directly to your PC.
The ping follows the path of the port, so it reaches the server and is able to respond.

Help / Re: My Loaded Saves have Different Events

« on: February 19, 2017, 09:58:28 AM »

I've noticed that events are put on bricks randomly while loading, but sort themselves out after a little bit

Yeah, during loading it shows the events of the bricks which are being loaded I think.

Can you open your savefile with a text editor like notepad and check some of the more complex events for any mistakes?
It should read almost as easily as in Blockland itself.

To teleport the player at the end just let a different centered brick create the same sized zone for a split second and do:
OnPlayerEnterZone > namedbrick > setPlayertransform

Does your computer have parental block or are you not on an Administrator account?
https://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=254819.0

How did you buy Blockland?
Was it through Steam? The official Blockland website? A service like Kinguin?

Do you have any addons downloaded?
https://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=175465.0

Make absolutely sure BitDefenders Firewall is turned off.
And if Windows Firewall is also enabled for some reason, turn it off as well.

What error does it give?

The problem could be that it hides some metadata.
Try creating the gif with a different program.
