Modification Help / Blockland External Database System - ?
« on: December 04, 2013, 07:50:55 PM »
Blockland External Database System - Yes or No?
Blockland External Database System is a system that would allow people to register privately modded servers, and instead of storing data on the system where data might be limited or maybe he/she just doesn't want to keep the files locally, you would use my library(?) to connect to an external server that would keep all the data in a MySQL database that would be hosted by me on a VPS.

Though right now this is a work in progress as I am still currently writing the database/server, but I thought I should ask you guys what you would like to see. Do you guys even want a external database system? Do you want a TorqueScript library to come with it? Because I don't have unlimited database space, every server will have a limit. Should I allow servers to purchase more database space?

Management wise I'll probably have it work a bit like PubNub works. Each project gets a key, and a read/write and a read key. So you submit a table structure (2 tables max at start), and I will put it into the database and when I give you the go you can insert/delete/update/get columns (this will become automated if this gets anywhere) with the r/w key, and with the r key you can only select. Eventually this will all be done via a GUI.

So guys, would you use this? What do you think? Any tips?

Off Topic / Selective Mutism
« on: December 03, 2013, 04:44:02 PM »
Selective Mutism is when you choose not to talk.
Would you do it?
I would, and likely I would try to do it for as long as it is possible for me to keep it up.
Though everyone who surrounds me would shun me and hate me if I did it...

Modification Help / Truce's Webserver V3 B64 decode isn't working
« on: November 28, 2013, 11:19:33 AM »
So in Truce's webserver you can have secure pages that are accessed via entering a username/password. It wasn't working so after some debugging I got the following lines:

FOR AUTH GOT: YWRtaW46cGFzc3dvcmQ=
B64 DECODE: BENJOQBTTXPSE


where

      %auth = getWord($_SERVER["HTTP_AUTHORIZATION"],1);
      echo("FOR AUTH GOT: " @ %auth);
      %auth = base64Decode(%auth);
      echo("B64 DECODE: " @ %auth);


in webclient::finish.
Though inputting YWRtaW46cGFzc3dvcmQ= into an online B64 decoder, I get

So what do I do?

Off Topic / Tea Megathread
« on: November 24, 2013, 01:23:59 PM »
So today I was drinking tea and I realized there was no tea megathread.

What is tea?
Tea is herbs put together to make flavoured water. Though many places grow many types of plants you can put in hot water to make hundreds of thousands of delicious teas.

What does tea look like
colored water.

How can I get tea?
Well tea actually can come in 2 ways (or more?), you can either get the herbs themselves and brew it yourself, or you can buy a teabag (or set of them) and use that. I prefer herbs but ofc you can't always bring a kettle around to brew tea. Any supermarket will have teabags and it is likely that you have a tea shop around you where you can buy herbs for tea. Though if you buy herbs for tea you probably will want a tea kettle to brew it, or else you have to put the herbs in your tea and you have to drink them and it feels terrible on your tongue :<

I have a bunch of teas at my house (and more come in every week), so I counted up all the teas we have.

Moroccan Mint Tea
Organic Assam Tea (it's a black tea)
Organic Rose Grey
English Breakfast
Chai Latte
Vanilla Mint
Chamomile Herbal
Korean Green Tea
Plain Chai Tea
Pure White Tea
Stash Premium Green Tea
Lipton Tea (assume either green/black tea didn't look)
P6 Tips Black Tea (some british tea company)
Stash Chamomile Herbal Tea
Kava Stress Release Tea
Chinese Special Gunpowder Green Tea
Ahmad Earl Grey Tea

yep, tea.

Off Topic / Looking for a vector artist for a new game
« on: November 03, 2013, 12:47:23 PM »
Hey, I am currently working on a game that is about cocaine a child who gets lost in a forest during a blizzard and needs to find his way home. While you go through your environment you can discover new areas of the forest and see new people. As you interact with your environment, the music that plays in the background will change. For example, say you are walking through some trees and you notice a bird stuck under a branch (horrid example but whatever). You can do many things, you can jump on the bird and attempt to kill it, and the music will turn to something deeper and sadder. Though if you go to the bird and help it out, the music will be lighter and happier. You might even along the way acquire the help of that bird. Currently I have the game engine 99% complete (I need to fix 1 error with level loading), and then I can work on things specific to the game. I use SDL2 for rendering and I have a friend who can create the music, but I do not have an artist. I don't know if vector artist is the best way to put it but I'm basically going for the art style in vectorpark or in this piece of art by caleb sawyer. It's really pretty and I think the game can be very fun if executed correctly. If you would like to art you will be upfront payed some amount of money that I have not yet decided (within the range of $10-100) in bitcoins. You can easily buy things with BTC or convert it to USD or whatever currency you use. Once I get a basic sound track I will post a sample of it.

I am making a GUI for a gamemode (you'll see when it comes out ;) ), and I need a 200x200 picture of a red 1x1 and a 64x64 thumbnail of the following:

red 1x1
red 1x2
blue 2x4
white 1x5x1
grey 32x baseplate
a regular blockhead (the one that comes default with blockland, aka "noob" outfit)
a army dressed blockhead
a pirate
the building tool

If you can make these for me, I would really appreciate it and I will put you in the credits of CityMod (what I am making this for).
