General Discussion / Re: My server stayed up for 25 days.
« on: August 16, 2016, 08:54:33 PM »I've posted this before, but the post must have been lost in the Great Coding Help Culling of 2015.
Blockland stores time in a 32-bit signed integer. The maximum positive value this data type can store is 2,147,483,647. Now, last time I made a very broad, sweeping statement that all of the ways you could get the simtime used this value at their core. I don't actually know if this is true, but it would amaze me if it were not. For one thing, it would mean that $Sim::Time would rapidly build up inaccuracies and deviate wildly from the correct value.
Assuming, however, that it is true, and every possible way you can get the simtime uses the same 32-bit integer at their core, then all of them will eventually overflow at the same time as the game passes 2147483647 milliseconds of uptime. With some basic arithmetic, we know that this occurs after:
24 days, 20 hours, 31 minutes, 23 seconds, and 647 milliseconds.
After this period, any scripts or code that use getSimTime() or $Sim::Time and aren't designed to be Ragnarok-proofed against simtime suddenly jumping to -2147483648 milliseconds will probably experience glitches. These can range from momentary bizarreness at the discontinuity, or extremely long-lived glitches that last until the simtime reaches a value of 0 milliseconds again, after 24 days, 20 hours, 31 minutes, 23 seconds, and 648 milliseconds. In theory, at this point, all of the problems would stop occurring for another 2147483647 milliseconds.
In theory, anyway. I don't think anyone's ever hosted a server for 50 continuous days without restart. If anyone wants to try, go for it; I'd be interested to see if the problems actually did stop or if they continued indefinitely.

It often checks to see if a client exists, it'll need to be rewritten a little bit for this to work properly.

Figured it out. Try it! Example: setGamemodeByName("Freebuild", "Internet", "Freebuild!", "", 20);
I did figure out that there are a few bugs with the server name and the internet type, which only puts it to Singleplayer.
Overall it still works. You could probably put a tutorial button on the main menu and just do: setGamemodeByName("Tutorial");

Do you have VCE?
Use > Player > VCE_ifVariable > item[ * ] == ui name of item
* Item slot 1 to 5
Example:
onActivate > Player > VCE_ifVariable > item1 == Rocket L.
Use > Player > VCE_ifVariable > item[ * ] == ui name of item
* Item slot 1 to 5
Example:
onActivate > Player > VCE_ifVariable > item1 == Rocket L.

General Discussion / Re: useful eval code thread?
« on: August 15, 2016, 04:28:54 PM »I'm /pretty/ sure that the 0 in servercmdban is a bool to specify "forever". Regardless I just use banBLID instead usually because the arguments make more sense.
afaik its the ID of the person who banned the userFrom the game: function serverCmdBan(%client, %victimID, %victimBL_ID, %banTime, %reason)
The command first checks to see if the VictimID is a client (server sends real client IDs to the client), then does the checking

Definitely possible but I don't know the commands to do it. It's not as easy because it's a lot .click(); stuff with indexes

If you just do shutdown it'll just tell everyone "The server has shutdown." otherwise it's whatever you put in the message.
