Author Topic: Blockland crashes at random times for seemingly no reason at all  (Read 1942 times)

I don't understand why I keep randomly crashing. I'll just Self Delete, or maybe disconnect from a server, or load a build, or even be logging into RTB and the game just crashes. I rarely see anything in console that could indicate anything wrong, but i cant afford to run around with trace on all the time, so i'm not sure what to do. I just keep crashing for no reason.

Just start Blockland, type trace(1); in console then launch a server then wait for it to crash. Simple.

What OS do you use?

Try running Blockland without any client-sided add-ons and see if it still crashes.
Just move them to a random folder and move them back later.

My server just crashed for seemingly no reason, console showed NOTHING

cant afford to do that.

First off, get rid of the "I'm mightier than thou" attitude. You have to do what we ask or your problem will never be solved.

Two solutions have been posted and you chose to ignore them completely. Until you actually want to listen to our advice/suggestions on how to fix your problem, this is not the place for you.

This isn't the place for you if you're going to throw around insults and claim i'm acting condescending. I'm not. I don't know where you got that idea.

I can't constantly run with trace on because when I do that the game runs extremely slow to the point where it is unbearable to be used. The advice already offered was from a standpoint of ignorance due to not reading the OP.

I posted this thread because I wanted help, not arguments. There are other solutions besides trace i'm sure though.

He isn't arguing with you. Two people suggested two good possible solutions (one being monitoring trace for oddities and the other being removing all add-ons to see if an add-on is causing the problem), and you chose to ignore them for no reason. I highly suggest you actually follow through with those suggestions.

You can definitely afford to disable add-ons. It's not like they're going to be permanently gone, just rename the Add-Ons folded "add-ons backup" or something and run Blockland again, and see if you still crash.

If that doesn't work, turn trace on. Yes, it slows down your game, that's why it's off by default, but it's a useful debugging tool. Turn it on, play around with the game (even with lag), get a crash so we can look at logs.

Uh yes he is, but whatever.

Wrong. One of them did not read OP which clearly stated that I can't afford to have trace on all the time. The other is not the problem, i'm pretty sure of that. I had perfectly good reasons.

I highly suggest you actually follow through with those suggestions.
And I highly suggest you read OP. I can't constantly run around for hours with trace mode on. The game would be unplayable and more than likely I will crash from the trace, which happens often when I try to do tasks with it on, such as starting servers.

If I wasn't doing important stuff I could afford to disable client/server mods, but I can't. I'm hosting with mods that are required for what i'm doing. Renaming the addons folder will probably break the game, i'm sure.

If that doesn't work, turn trace on. Yes, it slows down your game, that's why it's off by default, but it's a useful debugging tool. Turn it on, play around with the game (even with lag), get a crash so we can look at logs.
How many times do I have to say this. I can't use trace because it lags me to death and half the time it ends up being the thing that crashes me, and considerably quickly sometimes too.

Wow, you sir are truly an idiot. Why can't you tolerate so much lag when we are trying to solve your problem.

Without trace, the only solution is trying to uninstall. So good luck with that roostery attitude.

Good luck with being an starfish. I don't have any "attitude", i'm not sure why everyone here is so convinced of that. You were ignorant and didn't read the OP, i'm not going to repeat myself again for the millionth time about the issue with console trace. You aren't trying to help at all, maybe you should just get out and let someone else help who's actually willing to.

You are the idiot here, i'm afraid.

Locking this because some starfishs care more about arguing with me and acting like egotists rather than provide help.
