i keep getting stuck in these perpetual states of i need to focus on important stuff like getting famous and making money and then drifting back to blockland really needs this helmet pack every once in a while

You don't want what comes with fame, trust me. Money is good to pursue, but the most important thing is family and health. Those are both > money and fame.

you're right, video gaming isn't even a real occupation

Look at the amount of money some of these kids are making and think again about that statement.

When you're high (marijuana) you don't eat while high, unless you're actually hungry. 'The munchy' phase is when you're coming down from your high, that's when you're gunna be the hungriest, trust me.

vector math is probably the ugliest part of torquescript and I still don't fully understand how it works, which is sad because it's also very important

Yeah, that would be great.
Also, sorry for literally forgetting your mod. I got it the day it came out, used it a bit, and then totally forgot.
and I feel bad about it

Ok, music now saves. You can re-download from the same link:

Or you can just use this: https://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=250288.0

Just doesn't compile into a gamemode, but you can have different add-ons enabled and load them by save-name.

Modification Help / Re: Chat Bot code error

« on: March 01, 2017, 01:01:30 PM »

I see you are using the Chatbot Tutorial. Make sure you are doing the steps correctly and reading and understanding it.

In chatbot_getRandomPhraseFromWords(%word) function, you have if(%phrases !$= "Hello"), but in the Tutorial, it's if(%phrases !$= ""). Only alter things after you get it working because I see what you were thinking, but that shouldn't have hello in it.

Secondly, if(%hasTrigger = chatBot_messageHasTriggerWord(%msg); should just be:

%hasTrigger = chatBot_messageHasTriggerWord(%msg);

Lastly, you need to understand how things are structured in programming. Notice your Curly Brackets/Braces ( -> { or -> } ). You should be able to see what is wrong if you understand how they should be placed.

Try reading this to understand how they are placed: https://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=192083.0

Modification Help / Re: "Tool" to simplify map-making

« on: February 23, 2017, 02:45:28 PM »

Lol, you should make this a bit more dynamic IMO. First, users shouldn't have to initialize/set variables every time they want to call the function, this should be handled internally. Secondly, why not just have the function take an argument which changes the size instead of providing 10 different functions for each size?

This is a cool tool but people are lazy and want to do the least amount of work possible, so when developing a tool, you should try to make it as nice/easy as possible for other modders to implement. Would like to see more revisions on this with more features.

Edit: Plz no generic var/function names to avoid possible confliction.
