Off Topic / Rage, I don't fully understand

« on: April 08, 2013, 06:11:48 PM »

Hey all of you guys.

I've made a topic similar to this one before, so please don't say 'oh you're such a blogger' because I realize that I made that thread, but it was a different sort of note not exactly relevant to this one.

Anyway, down to the problem;

Since as long as I can remember, I get these sort of rage flashes, I don't fully or even partially understand why or how or how to control them.  It's just whenever a certain thing happens it drives me to the point I literally want to put my fist through the nearest thing to me, no matter the consequences.  I don't understand why it happens or what the triggers are.

It takes literally every ounce of my strength to keep from letting myself just go ape-stuff on the nearest thing or the thing causing it, and I usually have to remove myself from the situation only to hit the forget out of whatever I'm near then, typically a pillow or punching bag.

I know some of you will say "Oh well that's normal just get over it", but it really isn't, I know that I get mad at times and that things are going to anger me, but these flashes are pure rage, I can't fully explain it.

Some of the things that cause me to experience this; my new dog barking, my grandparents (I live with them) being anywhere near me while drunk, hearing my ex say certain words, people near me being absolutely obnoxious, getting touched any way in an aggressive manner.

And that's what I mean, none of them are related in any way, and I know those are things that would make a person normally mad, but it's like I can get angry over other stupid stuff but these just, holy forget I don't get it.

Idk, forums help me

Modification Help / Easy-ish way to create a new spawn brick?[Solved]

« on: March 26, 2013, 02:26:06 PM »

Hello all!

I've recently been looking into creating a new spawn brick that will function outside of a minigame that when a client with a certain variable will spawn on the brick but others will default to the regular spawns.

Eg;
%client.test = 1; will spawn at the new brick
%client.test = 0; will spawn that the regular position

I have looked at personal spawn bricks and such but they are all pretty long and tedious processes, any easier way you guys know of to do it?

Modification Help / |bldm| - Blockland Database Management - FINISHED

« on: March 24, 2013, 05:52:11 PM »

So in my free time I've decided to work on a new project.  I won't and can't guarantee any results from this project, not even a finished result can be 100% confirmed, this is simply something I've started in my free time.  Let this be abundantly clear.



bldm - Blockland Database Management


What is bldm?
bldm, is what I've considered a community helping modification to the way the Blockland add-on system works.  It will serve as an easily-connected database that any Blockland user can connect their add-ons to without having to host their own database.  Each user will be allowed a certain amount of space, and it will be implemented in the most user-friendly way.

How does bldm help me?
bldm, will allow you to run inter-server and inter-client connections without having to create your own TCP/UDP object scripts, and most importantly, not need your own database.

What can I do to support bldm?
bldm, is mostly a personal project done by me, but anyone who feels like helping is always welcome, and most of all just verbal support is always a great motivational tool.

Current Progress?
[0]Database System fully connectable and functional - 60 - 75% - Thanks Brian!

• Script Resource for connection fully created and working - 5%
[0]Fluent UI and control panel - 75% - Thanks Yola &

Tetrahedroner (however the hell it's spelled)

Off Topic / Current life status [to anyone who cares]

« on: February 25, 2013, 09:13:21 PM »

Hello all, I just recently returned from my ban and I'm getting a few questions about what's been going on in life and such so I thought I'd go ahead and put it all out here.

A few months ago I posted a thread about me and a girl having a child soon, and this is still true, it is a boy for sure and we are naming him Mathew David, he is due in June (no exact date yet).  I was engaged to this girl for 3 months until a few days ago when we decided it would be the best for the kid to realize that we fight way to much to provide a stable home for our child together.

I am still paying all of her bills to keep her in a safe, friendly neighborhood in Tennessee.  I am still going to see my child regularly and be the father I am supposed to be, so don't get any ideas of my running from my problems please.

I was recently laid off from my current workplace due to a franchise owner-switch, and I have a career offer from MSI to start a career with them and they will pay for my bachelors degree in computer technology.

So uh yeah, if you have any other questions, feel 100% free to post them here.

Also, I want to hear whats going on in your lives, see what you guys are living for.

Modification Help / Getting brick after wrenching? [solved]

« on: February 18, 2013, 10:58:04 AM »

Alright so I need help figuring out how to accomplish a goal.


I need to apply a trigger to a brick based on the bricks name.

I have figured out two methods,

1) run a continuous loop throughout the server checking all bricks names
2) if there is a callback after you're done eventing a brick, check the name

Is the second one possible, if so what is the callback?

Off Topic / Open Relationships?

« on: February 15, 2013, 05:52:00 PM »

I want to see the Blockland community's outlook/opinion on open relationships.

An open relationship is having 2+ partners with each of them knowing that you have more than just them

This does include whatever religion you take's view on the point.

Modification Help / Forgot how to get client input? [Solved]

« on: February 15, 2013, 03:55:16 PM »

A while back I made a mod that when a person clicked another it would ask the player to type Yes or No into chat, and would then do something.


I now, after months of not using TS, have forgotten how to do so.

I have a trigger being activated, then the client needs to input chat to continue, how do I retrieve the next thing the client says?

Figured out a way, anyone have the name of the function that is called when the server receives a chat message before posting it to every client?

Off Topic / What the forget Google/Chrome?

« on: February 14, 2013, 02:55:04 PM »

Opened Google Chrome to Google, got this

The server's security certificate is not yet valid!
You attempted to reach www.google.com, but the server presented a certificate that is not yet valid. No information is available to indicate whether that certificate can be trusted. Google Chrome cannot reliably guarantee that you are communicating with www.google.com and not an attacker. Your computer's clock is currently set to Wednesday, August 8, 2012 9:31:16 PM. Does that look right? If not, you should correct your system's clock and then refresh this page.
You cannot proceed because the website operator has requested heightened security for this domain.

There is no way to bypass it and I cannot connect to any google owned domains, yet I can connect to any non-Google domains.

Help?

Creativity / I need YOUR help [Contest]

« on: February 12, 2013, 05:04:52 PM »

Alright guys, for a while me and YoungRotations have been working on a voxel based game, not in comparison to Minecraft before you even ask.

I have a large portion of the game done, we are planning to also launch a kickstarter and have some lined up supporters on Youtube.

One, major, problem.
We have tried, tried, and tried again to get some good textures for the terrain, yet cannot do it.

So I need you guys to make some texture packs!

Here's the specifications:

• Must be 512x512 pixels
[0]png format ONLY

• The style needs to be a Minecraft idea, yet a bit more realistic, but not too far either
[0]I need accurate textures, bark, leaves, stone, grass, all these are good ideas, no specialized textures yet, but if you win then I will ask you to make the specialized textures.

What do you get?

Of course, you will get alpha testing privileges, as well as a position on the team as sprite creator, and payment and such will be discussed at a later date.

So go ahead and let's see your best!

Off Topic / How many bans today?

« on: February 11, 2013, 06:39:04 PM »

I've seen two bans today, K1ng_0f_N0thing and Trogtor, but I'm really sure I saw at least two more but I can't find them.

Am I suffering from amnesia or did a lot of people get banned today?

Modification Help / Need vector help [Not a question]

« on: February 06, 2013, 02:59:09 PM »

Hello all, I am currently working, and am almost finished with, an extremely in depth Torquescript tutorial that will be hosted on my own private web page.  Each tutorial covers a different topic and has a related YouTube video of me talking and doing the things in the tutorial for people that are more audible learners.

However, I never got into vectors, container searches, etc in Torquescript.  So my knowledge of these is minuscule to say the most.

If anyone would like to type up a 'report' on the above listed topic and/or do a recording of themselves to the tutorial they wrote, you will be 100% credited on the page it will be posted to.

If you cannot record yourself, I can do so myself so long as you write the tutorial.

Thanks.
