BLG (Unite) Development

[DontCare4Free]

Love how you're using continuous integration for this big time development project, seems real useful for the massive team of developers you have.

It's mostly just there to publish the artifacts to the Nexus instance (because doing "sbt publish-local" on multiple projects is too much work).

Just wondering, how necessary is corporate level repository management software for the development of a small addon with 2 developers? If anything, doesn't it just over-complicate things having to jump through the hoops the software applies?

What hoops?
Installing it was a matter of spinning up a VM, extracting a zip, making a symlink and running a script. Config was pretty easy too, once I figured out how to log in (bad documentation doesn't state default password).

Jenkins was even simpler since I already had it set up.

There is no more extra work now, since it's set up with a GitHub post-push hook.

What about my first question? Are you ignoring that because you know it's pointless?

The wrapper will use the SBT launcher which downloads itself and all dependencies from a Maven repo on the first launch. An auto-updater would also be simpler to so.

So to run BLG you have to use a custom launcher?

Sounds awful, aren't you able to code it in TorqueScript? Everyone else seems to manage, I guess BLGv2 is just very advanced!

How would you start up Blockland from within Blockland while Blockland isn't running?

No, we aren't. Torque doesn't allow you to capture the console output of Torque within the Torque program. The server requires a wrapper so we can capture its output. Also, Torque can't start itself out of nothingness. This is a combination of the add-on in torquescript and the wrapper in Java/Scala. Please learn the field you are speaking of before criticizing us on how we're not doing it right.

The field being what? The field of Blockland Glass v2 development? Strong choice of words brother.

All makes sense now

The field of TGE.

Rub, your acting like a real jackass.
