Welcome to the thread all about V20
Now that v20 is out you may be wondering a few things about it:
"So whats new?"
Blockland now runs off a launcher application, this allows bad spot to release small updates and patched without any hassle.

"Where2Get?"

"How do i keep my key binds/prefs"
Just copy over your 'Config' folder to the new block land folder, which my default is stored in the Documents folder. this will copy over all your saved avatars and key binds, options etc.
"But i don't want it in documents, hoa2move?"
If you want to run block land off a memory stick, or just hate the documents folder its quite simple to move
On windows, open the shortcut prefernced and add to the
target -profilePath "Location" for example C:\Program Files\BlocklandLauncher.exe -profilePath "D:\games\Blockland"
On a mac, go to terminal and type/copy in /Applications/BlocklandLauncher.app/Contents/MacOS/BlocklandLauncher -profilePath "Location"
For example: /Applications/BlocklandLauncher.app/Contents/MacOS/BlocklandLauncher -profilePath "/Foobar/Blockland"
"I moved location now ime getting errors"
Some people have reported that after moving folder block land still goes to the document folder to write the console.log and the cache.db, this will most likely be patched soon.
"How can i run a dedicated server"
Like in changing the folder location on windows, append to the target -dedicated and it will launch as a dedicated.
The default map can be set via -map MAPNAME
For example: C:\Program Files\BlocklandLauncher.exe -dedicated -map skylands
On mac, you will need to open terminal and put in "/Applications/BlocklandLauncher.app/Contents/MacOS/BlocklandLauncher -dedicated" without the quotes, again the default map can be set via -map MAPNAME
When exiting the server box, a bug can occur to still leave a copy of block land running, to halt it go to the apple logo in the top left of the screen, than click "Force Quit" and select block land, this will make sure the server has ended.
"I keep getting a Squlite error / Blockland won't work"
Ok, there can be many factor causing this; as with any updates in games.
The most common cause is that your computer won't let block land read its own files, make sure that the folder block land is contained in has "Read/Write" permissions. to change this go to the folders properties and On windows: Disable read only (Don't have huge amount of info for windows as i don't use it )
On mac: at the bottom under "Sharing and permissions" make sure you have read/write permissions, if problem still continues try enabled read/write for all users.
Or additionally you can try installing the new revision of the launcher
http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=172945.0It could be down to a add-on you have installed, try loading block land on a fresh install.
If your still having issues take 2 steps,
A. check the help section for posts regarding you issue, chances are another user has a similar issue and somebody has posted a solution.
Once you are sure somebody else hasn't posted the issue, make a topic. (Although be sure as people hate repeated topics saying the same thing over and over)
"I can't use custom Textures / UI"
At the moment the new block land doesn't support these, as it replaces the files every time you load. although bad spot has said a update to support these may be out soon.
"I can't find where to install my add ons!"
By default they are stored in
Windows: My documents
Mac: Documents
Just install them in the usual fashion, if you don't know how check out
