Blockland Cloud

[Freek]

Is it possible to make an application for Blockland where if you use multiple computers to play Blockland, it will show the saves on both computer? It would save the builds to the key/account.

Example:

I build something then save it on one computer.
Then I get on another computer and the save is on that one too.

I could make a script where, if you host a dedicated server, you can join as a client and it'll sync your client's saves with the server's saves, but that isn't totally automated and easy :(

There's actually some new stuff in the pipeline for RTB which is basically what you're talking about here, although not just limited to save files.

I'll write about it at some point but it's definitely on my radar.

But what is cloud gaming?

Oh snap, that sound legit Ephi. Wouldn't that require a ton of space to host everyone's saves and other things? My saves folder itself is 789 MB.

It shares the files on multiple computers. Or close to that.

I would suggest just getting a dropbox and tell it to sync your saves folder

A screenshot of the same file existing on two computers... yeah.
