Help / Falling Damage Crashes Server

« on: December 25, 2013, 02:26:41 PM »

Whenever a player is suppose to die from falling damage, my server dies instead. Pretty straightforward problem. I already tested the server without the AC-130 and it still crashed.

Help / Doors Add Event Lines when Loaded

« on: December 20, 2013, 06:02:39 PM »

Whenever I load up my build on my server, all the doors have added the 3 default event lines for them on top of my other events. This results in 3 unfortunate side effects (in order of least to most damaging effects):

• Makes there be a stuff-ton of event lines.
• Makes doors not open counter-clockwise
• Makes doors that are restricted be able to be opened by everyone with just a click. (I use Security Cards and Keycards to restrict them.)

This is quite a problem, as I have a lot of doors and restart my server multiple times a day. Therefore, the sooner this problem is solved, the better. (I'm eager to get back to hosting).

Off Topic / “Christmas List”

« on: December 16, 2013, 11:20:59 PM »

While I realize/hope you are all above the age of actually making a Christmas list, there is still probably something that you're hoping to receive. Even if you're 38 years old and atheist, it's still likely that you'll be getting something over the holidays. Some of you might have things you know you'll get (and you want to rub in it in someone's face). Others might just hope for the best. But most of you probably have something you want, and I'm curious as to what your desires are.

I'm hoping for some nice earbuds, some t-shirts, and maybe some computer maintenance or money to get games on Steam.

Suggestions & Requests / Various RP server mods

« on: November 30, 2013, 03:46:59 PM »

After a while of hosting a server, I have accumulated a list of various mods that would greatly improve the server. Whereas most of them have been released, I have a list of a few that have not.

The first of these is an 11-slot player. I know that one was already made, but it was failed for affecting some weapons and not fixing that glitch. I don't know if it would be easy to fix or not, but it would be very helpful. For those of you who ask why the forget I would need 11 slots, there's a LOT of gear you need to deal with the stuff people come up with on my server. I can divulge more if you want, but that really isn't on topic. Done.

The next mod would be seemingly really easy to make. It would be one that makes vehicles die when they touch the ground. This would be good for if your map is islands in water, and you need vehicles to die when they fall into the water. Before you judge, I have a fairly good reason for using this instead of drowning vehicles, as I am using 3 physics vehicles as boats. (Motorboat, Carrier, and Aviator Sub. I am well aware of the dangers of the carrier, and it is password-protected so that only a few hand-picked and responsible people can drive it.)

The last mod that I would request is probably the hardest to do. I need a mod that would act as a money system, but by letting different slayer teams be different jobs. Money would be the same as your score. In the advanced options of each team, it would have the amount of money that the team gets per 'tick'. In slayer options, you would have how much money you start out with and how long a tick is. Other things to aid this mod would be events for subtracting/adding money. (I realize that we have events for subtracting and adding score already, but they can subtract to less than 0.) We would also have a command, lets say /resetmoney, which would go back to the default amount of money. Some commands could be /givemoney [amount] [playername] and /resetmoney [playername] for admins to reset the player's money to the money that they start out with.

A daycycle that doesn't get too light or too dark. Like youse's daycycle in the day and Teneski's siten1 at night. Being done.

General Discussion / Airport Sim Radio Codes

« on: September 23, 2013, 09:04:32 PM »

I have an Airport Sim server, and I thought I'd make it convenient for players who need the radio codes to be able to look here or print these out, rather than write them all down by hand:

*Piloting
Section 1:

• Before flight, ask for clearance to fly. Do this by by saying "[Your call sign] requesting flight clearance from [airport you're at] to [airport you're going to]."
• Your call sign is the first three letters of your name and the first three letters of your BL_ID. If you are in a passenger jet, say "heavy" after your call sign.
• If you are in a private jet, say "Medium" after your call sign. If you are in a plane too small to go to a jetway, say "light" after your call sign.

Section 2:

• After that, ask permission to taxi to the runway by saying "[Your call sign] requesting permission to taxi to the runway, [Airport you are at]"
• The controller will hopefully say a runway number for you to taxi to. To know which runway this is, look at your compass to see where to taxi. (Download compass mod on RTB.)
• A runway named 36 goes north. 9 goes east, 18 goes south, and 27 goes west. This will be all that you will encounter on Blockland because it only has 4 fricken directions.

Section 3:

• When it comes time to land, say this to the controller. "[Your call sign] requesting permission to land at [airport you want to land at]."
• The controller (once again, hopefully) will say a runway number to land at. Use the system discussed in book 2 to figure out what runway this is.
• Remember to land softly, otherwise you might explode. You want to point the nose up a little bit and go in slowly, using a slow speed to go downwards.

Section 4:

• Once landed, ask for permission to taxi to the gate by saying "[Your call sign] requesting permission to taxi to the gate."
• The controller will probably say a terminal number. Terminal 1 is the terminal with jetways, normally on the right. Terminal 2 has no jetways, usually on the left.
• "But wait, what was that other thing, gate 5?" The gate number is how many gates down it is. If you get gate 5, look at the very left, and count, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Oh look! That's gate 5!

Section 5:

• Some variation is acceptable on how you say things, as long as all the information is included.
• A lot of a variation is accepted when you ask to land because often people wait until the last second to ask and if they type for a while, they crash into the dirt.
• When asking permission to taxi, don't ask for a certain number, like requesting taxi to runway 9 or gate 5. The controller will give you the number.

Section 6:

• Before flying a helicopter, request flight clearance by saying "[Call sign] is [which heli, like blue UH-1] requesting flight clearance at [airport you are at]."
• After flying a helicopter, say "[Call sign] has landed at [airport you are at]."

What else you need to know:

As well as the difference between right-base and left-base.



*Policing(saywat?)
Jailtimes:

• Jailtime based on crimes: Start at 2 minute and add/subtract based on your actions.
• Normal Crimes (Such as car theft, being an accomplice in any crime, robbery, and reckless endangerment): +1 min
• Murder, Attempted Murder of Police, Rape, Kidnapping, Bank Robbery, and a Standoff: +3 mins
• Running from police, resisting arrest: +1-2 mins
• Surrendering peacefully, turning yourself in: -1 or -2 mins

Incidents:

• Incident codes are based on jailtimes.
• A crime with a +2 minute jailtime would be "I-2"
• A crime with a +3 minute jailtime would be "I-3"
• A crime with a +4 minute jailtime would be "I-4"
• A pursuit/a suspect resisting arrest would be "I-R" or "I-P"
• A suspect being taken into custody would be I-C
• An incident with no jaitime (like a car crash) is "I-0"
• To say multiple incidents, say "I-# and I-#..."

Backup codes:

• B1: Officer needs help ASAP, all units respond.
• B2: Officer needs help, all units respond.
• B3: Officer needs help ASAP, available units respond.
• B4: Officer needs help, available units respond.
• B5: Officer needs help ASAP, multiple available units respond.
• B6: Officer needs help, multiple available units respond.
• B7: Officer needs help ASAP, single available unit respond.
• B8: Officer needs help, single available unit respond.
• B9: Officer likely needs help, single available unit respond.
• B10: Officer might need help, single available unit respond.
• If you are needed as backup, GET YOUR ASS OVER THERE or you will be fired.
• Basically, the lower the number the more intense the situation, and the more backup the officer needs.

Sirens:

• To turn on the lights, press <color:FFFF00>light key<color:F9F9F9> when in a police car. This may not work in some cases.
• To turn on the siren, type /stereo and select either police car or one of the Code-3 loops.
• Code 3 means with lights and sirens. Code 2 means without lights or sirens.

Other information:

• After each police code should be "@ [airport closest to you]" or "b/t [two airports you are inbetween]" EXAMPLE: "I-1 @ BLBA" or "I-R b/t BLBA & BLUS"
• Radio is replacing team chat.

DISCLAIMER: No real radio codes were used, the flight school codes were based off FSX and then changed more, and the police codes were obviously pure fiction. I did this to simplify it.

(That was all an edit, no shame on dgan.)

Gallery / Airport RP Server [IMAGE HEAVY] (Link to old one)

« on: August 10, 2013, 01:33:45 PM »

So I've been working on a new map for my Airports RP. This map is island themed but still centered around no-lag and being realistic and functional. I decided against GSF Terrain bricks because I ran out of datablocks, but I think the terrain is still good. Enjoy.



Island 1:
BLBA (Used to be spawn, now it's just a business center/city)







Island 2
WC99:


BNFB:


Corner that hasn't really been seen:


BullShark (by Blus) with all boats spawned:








3rd island:
CCMI:


BLUS:


SLMN:








BLOOPERS!



CREDITS:
Blus & I - BullShark. (90% blus.)
TheFlamingLemon & I - Cube terrain (98% me)
TheFlamingLemon & I - Race track. (80% Flaming.)
Kreon & I - Kreon's Gun Store (99% Kreon) Gun store remade by me because Kreon was banned.
TheFlamingLemon - Keeping his avatar ass-nude throughout the whole thing.
Who Cares99 (me) - Everything else.

And, as I said, I'm posting the link to my first airport RP.
DISCLAIMER: The build is buggy as it was made almost 2 years ago, before V21/the doors update.

Drama / A fair warning

« on: July 31, 2013, 09:40:10 PM »

I come here not to complain, not to flame, not out of revenge, but to give a warning.

ID 15126.
This person changes their name fairly often, but you can find a lot of dramas under the name "Elizabeth Kaufman."
I had completely forgotten about this person, until today when they saw me at a server and decided to try to embarrass me and/or ruin my reputation. That, however, is not even close to my point. This person has often befriended people, seeming nice, then slowly become less and less of a good admin, a good friend, and seemingly good person. Then they are an all-out badmin, but you will still remember them as the person you met originally, the nice person, the good friend. It took a lot of my other friends to finally, after about a year, get me to ban him forever and not look back. This person one time tracked my IP. He found where I lived, and used my location to threaten to come to my house (he even named a time), and kill me. I should've just told the police. Then he would be forced to leave everyone alone. But I didn't.
If you are friends with him now, pay close attention to his behavior. I'm not asking you to de-friend him just because some random drama topic says you should. No, he has many drama topics and I believe he can talk his way out of it. He said some stuff like "he changed" that I somehow believed. (In my defense, that was a couple years ago). Anyway, what I am asking you is to watch his behavior closely. You may notice that he isn't the honorable, kind man that he seemed to be at first. You might notice his abusive behavior, or complaints about him being an admin on your server. You may notice that he tries to control your behavior, even if it isn't his place to say. If you meet him, please don't let him befriend you. Not for me, for you. Not because I want revenge, but because I don't want you to suffer the same fate. What happened between Elizabeth Kaufman and I was years ago, but I still have problems because of it. Every time he sees me, he tries to troll me. He tries to ruin my reputation. People who have never even heard of me come to my server just to yell at me for being a badmin, because of this man. I ask them why they think I am a badmin, and not ONE has been able to tell me what I can do to correct my behavior. Not ONE has been able to tell me what I have been doing wrong. So I also ask you, if you think I am a badmin, please. Tell me why.

Suggestions & Requests / Different brick colors mod.

« on: November 28, 2010, 03:29:30 PM »

Wouldn't it be cool to have a mod where you can paint one side of a brick one color, and the other side a different color. When you plant a brick it is all the same color unless if you have random brick color on. You should be able to toggle it in RTB Prefs. That way, you can have wallpaper on a build without using many bricks or much room.

Off Topic / Does anyone have a good Science Fair Project. I NEED HELP!

« on: October 28, 2010, 03:17:30 PM »

I need to think of a project by TOMORROW and I am almost clueless as to what I am doing. I need to think of a good science fair project by tomorrow because I need to turn it in that morning! Something that has to do with planes, aerodynamics, or aviation in any way please! But mostly, I need a good, 5th grade-level idea that has all of the following:

• Problem/Question: The general curiosity to be explored.
• Hypothesis: A testable statement. (I believe...because...)
• Simplified procedure: Brief description of plan to test Hypothesis.
  a. Variable: The single factor to be manipulated or changed.
  b. The Controls (all factors that are held constant in all groups in the experiment)
• Check any of the following that your project will use
  ____human subjects                         _____animals
  
  ____substances from the environment (water, etc)

Note: I just copied this text from the paper that is right infront of my face.

Off Topic / My dog died last night.

« on: October 03, 2010, 05:42:13 PM »

      The dog was a yellow lab. She was only 2 years old. (14 dog years.) I hate that my dogs always die after the vet says "She's fine, you'll be able to bring her home tomorrow." That happens every loving time and makes it even sadder.

Suggestions & Requests / Somebody please make a ski lift.

« on: September 19, 2010, 09:13:06 AM »

I think it would be cool to have a ski lift. You could make it a lot like Kalphiter's elevator I think. It should never stop, you should just get on it and it will be solid (like Kalph's elevator), but it should obviously look like a ski lift. oh, and if it is possible keep it away from the ground (if you have the altitude client side, it should be at least 20 cm.)

Help / "Join a Game" and other problems.

« on: May 28, 2010, 08:43:18 AM »

What can I do? Game crashes whenever I build certain bricks, such as the 1x1 brick.  "Join a Game" doesn't work, either. Also, my vehicles don't work. This started when I got V15, btw. Please also give directions on how to do your suggestion. If you have no suggestions, please do not post here and spam up the topic

Help / Add-on making/Jetski

« on: May 10, 2010, 04:51:46 PM »

I need help making add-ons. I can't find out how to get to the page where you do it or how to script or how to make models. Basically, this is a post to beg for a tutorial. Sorry if this is a re-post, I searched 5 times and nothing showed me what I needed to know, or even close to what I needed to know...


Also, I have searched countless times for the GSF Jet ski and only came to a post that said to search for it. =l
