I don't think there's any restriction, it just overwrites your description.txt with an rtb-generated one based on what you enter into the file details. That's probably broken now because I think the description.txt format changed or something.

Well whatever it does. Point is that it doesn't allow you to have custom description.txt's. The description.txt is what appears for gamemode descriptions, so this is annoying.

Also,
I seem to have found a bug:

It should exempt game mode submissions from description generation now.

As for the bug, that's a Blockland issue. Package deactivation is entirely forgeted in BL at the moment as far as I know - the scope for this code going wrong is infinitesimal:

Code: [Select]
  function destroyServer()
   {
     $RTB::MSSC::Prefs = 0;
     Parent::destroyServer();
   }

"image.png" is recognized by the DLM screenshot uploader but "image.PNG" is not.

Photoshop simply refuses to save the setting that automatically capitalizes the extension. I have to manually type out the extension to make it lowercase and sometimes I simply can't be bothered to do it.

You can't be bothered to press backspace 3 times, then type png?

Not always when it's for a temporary file that I need for 10 seconds.

Missing the point and missing the point. The point is that it should work but it doesn't

No, it shouldn't, because some file systems are, you know, case-sensitive.

Exactly. Sounds like a recipe for disaster if it's just guessing the image format from the extension, anyway. Maybe there's a reason.

A .png isn't case sensitive so that's slightly irrelevant. z0w0 is right in that guessing the file format from the extension is a bad idea. If a file with an extension .PNG is an actual .png file, it should work.

I don't know if this has been a common glitch but sometimes RTB prefs don't load.
This is keeping me from properly creating a server.

That's fixed in the next patch which should be out this weekend.

One nice feature to have on the website would be the ability to search for add-ons by their zip file's name (or maybe even by the datablocks they define).

Yeah I'm planning to expand a lot on how you browse add-ons. Datablocks are something we already index per add-on so searching on them would be trivial.
