Author Topic: Would it be possible to unofficially update blockland  (Read 1984 times)

would it be possible to make unofficial blockland updates? like have a massive client/server addon thats changes how the game functions and adds new features, or is there only so much you can do with an addon?

also if it is possible, what updates would you make/want?

I think that would void copyrights


It would split the community up and cause other issues with clients for those servers needing functions.

I was thinking of this deep down, I would think it would not be trouble to make the unofficial Blockland update have it scan servers from your own server area, so it does not conflict with other servers and people not being able to join coming down to BadSpot frown upon you and slide a ban onto you.

Idk, maybe PM BadSpot...

i'm probably wrong because i dont know exactly what im talking about, but a system like this could probably be used to easily and automatically slip backdoors into every server unless it had strict moderation.


this thread title gave me an idea:

a megathread where people could ask if various things were possible, people could also post proof-of-concept things

What about the suggestions subform?


if we had a circle of /very/ trusted people who knew what they were doing then yes it should be done
but its really hard to find anyone like that
people have all done stupid things and we would need people who haven't done stupid things

what
Mehh, nevermind

Oh, I see, well forget my suggestion... (as said above)

This would be the case.
I would only trust Badspot, and by extension Rotondo and Kompressor, to update the game safely.

There's only two reasons for that.
1, Badspot has never put anything malicious in an update in the roughly-a-decade he's been updating, and...
2, Badspot would be sabotaging his income to distribute viruses/backdoors, so wouldn't do it. (This was the only reason to trust him/Blockland when I bought the game).

Anyone else would not provide those reasons to trust them, and they're the most important reasons when buying/updating anything.

also guys this may be a dumbass question but could you add synchronized videos in bl
