Not biased at all. Just the way I view you is all. As well as many other people on the forums.

many other people = 10 people

Where did you get the 10 from?

There is 16 pages of replies.

I have a problem. Once I double click on the "dedicated.command" it automatically opens Blockland on its own. The only thing is that the Blockland game window doesn't appear. And every-time I double click on the game to open it up, still no window appears. So therefore I can't join my server. Why? How can I fix this?

How do you open a new Blockland window? Mac version has no "File..." option or any option for that matter.

the dedicated server isn't supposed to have a 2nd window to appear, as it's just the server running, it doesn't render it

I know, but I want to be able to join the server when it is running.

Add Blockland to your toolbar/start menu? I don't know how Macs work all too well...
It should work fine if you start the dedicated, and then double click the Blockland shortcut. (Not the dedicated again)

And if that doesn't work, just have Blockland already started before starting up the dedicated server.

True, I did that and it does work. But when I close the game to leave and still have the server running and want to get back in. I can't because the game has already started without a window. :/

Is it working for anyone?

Yea, I got it to work. The only thing though is that on a Mac I had to re-download a fresh copy of v19 to use as the dedicated server, while I use my current copy to join my server. This is because on a Mac you can't open more than one game window at a time.
