Help / Re: How do I put unicode on my name or clan?

Blockland does not actually support Unicode. It only supports a small extension of the standard ASCII set, which includes letters with special accents and a couple funny looking dot characters.

If you purchased the game through steam then there is no way to get a key. To run the standalone Blockland you need to buy a key from the official website or Amazon.

Since you seem to be < 12 I'll fill you in on the fact that it is generally illegal to "sell internet space" (or whatever you want to call it) under a personal/family/private contract. Some kids have tried it here before and I believe they were getting C&Ds from Verizon. Unless you are paying for a contract specifically to run servers, though it's not worth it for a small-time server hoster within a game so insignificant as Blockland, don't even try.

This right here. Residential connections pretty much always state in their terms and conditions that you cannot resell your service or use the service to sell digital services.

Played the other night, it's a really neat concept and pretty fun. Just needs more courses for prolonged entertainment!

Could you add one perhaps as SaveBricks?

Savebricks  ||  Name  |  Ownership  |  Description

This is asking for a lot more than you probably think. Servers (for some reason) don't actually have a proper built-in method for creating a save file of the bricks it contains. People have written server-sided savers before, but it looks like nobody has really done it 100% correctly before. There is always something wrong with one or the other.

An alternative would be to implement a different saving format, such as DrenDran's binary bls format. The downside to this is that you can't load it without using the same mod.

Help / Re: Continually have to re-enter key each time I load Blockland.

« on: December 27, 2014, 02:55:02 AM »

This usually means that Blockland is unable to write a key.dat file for some reason.

That, or some outside program or other problem is causing Blockland to detect your machine's MAC address differently each time you run the game.

The host-only functionality is problematic for people who use a setup like a BlockNet rental key. The 'host' will never join the server, ever. This is a good reason why the super-admin status exists.

I just got an FX 8320 for Christmas and went to take of the heatsink to my Phenom II x965.
What is the best way of removing this? I can't get it off with my bare hands and luckily none of the pins got bent when it got forcibly removed from the socket.

Pretty much had this exact experience when upgrading my Phenom II to a newer FX processor. You just have to slowly and carefully work it off of the thermal paste.
