General Discussion / Anyone think blockland is getting ruined?

« on: June 25, 2012, 10:37:28 AM »

I can't host servers anymore with more than 10 people because of dedicated servers.  I reached 32/32 players at Blox's Winter Jail Escape (I'm Blox) when there was only a few dedicated servers like Pecon7's Boss Battles (note: I am not against this since it is the only one on most of the time)

I am talking about servers like
Jorgur's Classic Dogfight
Glass' Trench Wars
Tezuni's JAIL RP
Socrates' Bounty Hunter   ]
Vilegence's City RPG       ]  <-- these two are new

These servers maintain 10 or more players at almost all times.  This is starting to make me think of ROBLOX.  ROBLOX has thousands and thousands of players playing at one time, but there are almost always those favorites of people that have atleast 100 playing at ALL times.  Not ALMOST all times.  Though it seems selfish to have such a fit over other servers that are quite nice, I am just a little mad.  I want to keep the system of Blockland, like how there are only very popular servers that are non-ded that are popular once a day, and how the next day there are different popular servers.  This way, people can interact with the hosts, play more creative servers, and interact with the server more.  With dedicated servers, (I am not against people who are not planning to become "famous" and never visit their server often and ignore all the people at his/her dedicated server) the hosts can be mean.  CAN be mean.  I am not saying all hosts are mean, but I have found a few hosts that think they are sooooo famous and well-known from their server, that they are roostery, mean, and they ignore the people who want to interact or become friends with the host.  (<-- ADMIN OPERTUNITY.  THEY ARE RUINED BY THESE TYPE OF HOSTS WHO ONLY ADMIN/SUPER ADMIN THEIR FRIENDS)

Think this is not right?  Think they worked hard to get these servers.
I think they worked hard.  But it's just how they keep them going for days and weeks, stealing all of the players so players with new idea's or cool thought or fun games cannot reach the top of the server list (when you filter players)

I want to run this poll for 7 days to see if I should give up of caring about how blockland works.  If the majority is NO, fine, I don't care.  I refuse to join these servers anyway.  If the majority is I DON'T CARE, alrighty then.  At least I know I am totally stupid :P

If the majority is YES.
Post a message saying you vote yes and that you agree that this is right and that dedicated servers are bad.

Help / Scripting Help (PLEASE HELP)

« on: June 12, 2012, 11:02:19 AM »

I need help with some scripting.  I am trying to create a ore.  I just need help with how to exactly make it.

I am planning to make it inside the special section in bricks, containing copper, tin, iron, coal, and a few others.

Right now, I want it to be something like

Code: [Select]

$health = 20;
(insert someway to detect a hit from a pickaxe)
if ($pickaxe) = 1;  // (copper)
$health - 1 
if ($pickaxe) = 2; // (iron)
$health - 2

And so on...
Also, I want it to have a 2x2 round brick.  (to make it easier)

I already have pickaxes that work, but I will have to add the script that follows along with the ores.

Code: [Select]

$pickaxe = 1

Mind if someone could help me?

Also, if you think that this is pointless, stupid, and I shouldn't do this, fine.
Haters gonna hate.

Thanks slimabob.  :\

Guys.  Please stop saying it's a copy of Truneo's.  I gave credit to him.  Just stop being idiots.  Just think.  Why are you just looking at add-ons saying they're horrible?  I can see why you don't like this one, but I mean, why want to destroy it.  Really.  16 votes for that???  Wtf is the problem.  Why do you care so much that it's part Truneo.  And I am going to tell you, I spent 20 minuetes finding the colors for those. The first line is NOT Truneo's.  It's not mixed up either.  He used basic colors.  I used basic colors.  Jeeze people.  Do you not relize that???
