No. I think it would be useful.

There are situations this could be used: I made a 'pickup' sound play when you collected a 5-sec firing Rocket in a mini challenge I made, but I had to make it play from the brick rather than the player who collected it, which meant it sounded strange if you clicked the container then jetted away.

Drama / Re: City RPG's - Enough, already.

« on: November 07, 2008, 04:50:39 PM »

The City RP servers pretty much only work if there is one central server. Otherwise, they drift in and out on a day-to-day basis and your shop/lot that you've worked on for ages suddently disappears because one person doesn't know how to use it, has an outdated version or decides it's boring.

The same goes for most other RPG mods: the Rise of Blockland server is very well made, but it doesn't work as well if there's more than one server for it, as there is no reason to try and save money or 'expand' if you can get equal commodities by starting on a different server.

One thing all the RPG mods are missing are simple things to go and waste your money on. Buying weapons in the city RP for law keepers seems to be useless: if you use them, you get jailed and/or lose the policeman/official status, and shops/lots only serve to gain you more money.

Escape and don't announce it to everyone that you've escaped.

There might be in future, though.

What about normal flying vehicles such as the Magic Carpet and various helicopters?

Add-Ons / Re: Admin Controls Manager

Once again, an urgent update. Sorry for all the new versions.

I just used $server::LAN, in which case it executes the command normally, but if it returns false then it checks what the respective $pref is set to, and then executes the command / returns an error message.

I meant that you could use the localclientconnection on non-dedi LAN servers to check if you are host there, so the controls will work.

Code: [Select]

if(command is host only)
{
 if($Server::LAN)
 {
  if($Server::Dedicated)
   //Can't tell if you're host, always do command
  else if(%client.getID() == localclientconnection.getID()
   //Do command
  else
   //show 'not host' error
 }
 else
 {
  if(%client.bl_id == getNumKeyID())
   //Do command
  else
   //show 'not host' error
 }
}

Didn't have time to say I updated it when I uploaded the new version.  Was running late thismorning.
Anywho, it's been updated for over 8 hours, with the host glitch fixed. Pretty major one.

I had planned to, I just mean I had originally used

Code: [Select]

if(%client.bl_id $= getNumKeyID()) {

to check if the user was the host. Thanks though.

Check server::lan and if your client == localclientconnection.getID() for host there, which would work.

Except for dedicated LAN.

It would appear if you were within about 200-300 studs of the player, like the names, further away it would 'blur' then disappear. It would also have an outline like other Blockland fonts.

Passable Pilot: Travel 3,000 studs with the stuntplane, minijet, fierbird or biplane
Aviator: Travel 10,000 studs with the stuntplane, minijet, fierbird or biplane
Plastic Eagle: Travel 30,000 studs with the stuntplane, minijet, fierbird or biplane
Lil' Rocket Man: Travel 30,000 studs VERTICALLY with the stuntplane, minijet or biplane

Just "any flying or flying wheeled vehicle", maybe. You should probably count the flying wheeled jeep, and if you're going to count Add-Ons such as the Stunt Plane then every Add-On vehicle should be counted, not just The Ones Bushido Approves Of.

General Discussion / Re: ► V10 Bugs

Does it still happen now, or just that time?

Does it still happen with all Add-Ons disabled?

Does it still happen on a re-installed copy?

Console log(s).

Add-Ons / Re: Trust Levels Manager

« on: November 07, 2008, 11:41:01 AM »

Is there a way to find out how the server is configured before you give trust to other people?

I'm not sure. It may show up in the "Accepting full trust will let you paint and DESTROY each others' bricks" GUI (unless it just shows a general message for Build and Full rather than the specific configuration), but as said it may be different in other servers.

Modification Help / Re: Blender or Mikshape

Blender has many useful functions, its only problem may be the interface which is confusing for beginners.

It's open source - designed by programmers, not graphics artists - so the program is probably easy to use for anyone who actually codes it.
