Dedicating servers
Tech-Troop:
What does it mean if a server is dedicated and my servers have not been dedicated latly, what can i do to make it dedicated?
Devvy:
Dedicated = A stronger server than standard, and you can leave without the server going down. To launch a dedicated server, just go to your blockland folder and open dedicated.bat
Then when it says "SUCCESS" In that window, Join your server via the Query LAN button.
Tech-Troop:
i don't know exactly what your saying but i'll try it
call me a noob if you want, if i don't get this right

Question, I guess i'm a handicap also. A command prompt shows up, I join the server and it's dedicated. Do I have to keep the window up in order to keep the server online? Just wondering, can't leave my PC on for the rest of my life. ;_;

ok, what darkhaz isn't totaly correct
basicaly, it's running while you're computer has a connection and the window is running, it is difficult to crash due to it not rendering explosions, bricks, datablocks, and all that, not very laggy for your computer because it doesn't render all those things, and you can leave it without it crashing
and to open it, like darkhaz said, go to you're blockland folder, double click dedicated.bat, then after a while when it says "Dedicated server is now running." you can query lan and join it
