Author Topic: I need Add-on loader.  (Read 3056 times)

I don't see how kicking everyone is worse than restarting the server. It just takes less time.
I read the topic; you didn't quote badspot and what badspot said was that the only reliable way to do it was to restart the server. I then added that before v21 there was a script that did it very reliably without having to restart the server, except that clients without the mod had to reconnect. No big deal.
The crash was most likely because he loaded a mod that he was making, so nobody else on the server had it.
i've witnessed it make servers unstable leading to crashes, and data loss in the form of unsaved bricks
it leads to client instability.
furthermore, badspot has failed the mod. that should be enough evidence that he doesn't want it there.
Guys, just answer this QUESTION and i will lock this. If this gets to page 10, i lock this and never un-lock.
dude
the creator of the loving game responded in your loving topic, what more do you want? i haven't seen him post here for months. admittedly, i'm not omnipresent, but still

Please remind me to never join your servers.

No big deal.
Okay. Having your game crash because your host insists on doing something he shouldn't do is "not a big deal".

Obviously. That is exactly why it crashed.

If you're updating things often enough that you have to load stuff ingame, you are absolutely not ready to host publicly.
