Block1zilla:
Could you post the commands that it would need?
Like so I could copy/paste 'em

Situational (read above):

--- Code: ---discoverFile("add-ons/weapon_musket.zip");
--- End code ---

Always needed:

--- Code: ---exec("add-ons/weapon_musket/server.cs");
transmitDatablocks();
--- End code ---

I made a mistake with discoverFile a few posts up, excuse me for that. "Discovering" the file tells Blockland to treat the files of the ZIP as if it were a folder, and also to update them if the ZIP if they were changed.

Thanks Kalphiter!

This will make fine tuning addons alot easier.

Another trick you should know is the "journal" argument for execution. It's done by adding a 1 in the "exec" function. By using it, you can update functions and variables without any functions in the script actually running. I'll also demonstrate how it works with code.

--- Code: ---$lolvariable = 9001;
function lolfunction()
{
echo("noodles");
}

lolfunction();
--- End code ---

--- Code: ---exec("thefile.cs");
--- End code ---

$lolvariables is set to 9001
The function "lolfunction" will be changed if it's different
"noodles" is printed

--- Code: ---exec("thefile.cs", 1);
--- End code ---
$lolvariables is set to 9001
The function "lolfunction" will be changed if it's different
"noodles" is not printed

This step if you just added or updated the add-on:

--- Code: ---discoverFile("add-ons/addon_name/server.cs");
--- End code ---

dammit thanks, Kalph, I didn't even know that existed.
