[0.4.8] 0gb.us's basic server

[Bearbar123]

It's on the map, i'll send you the cords once i get there

Also will anyone be willing to help me build a canal from one ocean to the next?

[jojoa1997]

Sure I will. Maybe 0gb could copy over a world edit for me.tell me the cords also for that

[jojoa1997]

Now that there is a map I plan on amkeing anetwrok of roads

[0gb.us]

you could try using the map mod on 30001. that generates the terrain around you. maybe ask in the topic that you got the mapper from

PilzAdams? That's what I used. I also asked it all three mapper topics, and got no response (C++ mapper, Python mapper, and PilzAdam's plugin which works by using the Python mapper).

gb, i saw this perfect place to build a town, i might build one there, who never knows.

Okay, awesome. If you want it connected by tunnel, keep it within the 7000 node limit.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the sooner you know, the better.

This weekend, the server is going down. I don't know for how long, but at most, a couple of days. It should be back up by Monday.

Sadface :(

Hopefully this server will be up for many more years. See you next Monday!

Yeah, I hope the server lasts too. See you when I get back!

Sure I will. Maybe 0gb could copy over a world edit for me.tell me the cords also for that

Yeah, get the coordinate, and I'll send over the file.

Now that there is a map I plan on amkeing anetwrok of roads

Awesome. I was going to do that. With recent developments though, I don't have the time. Most of the time I have for Minetest will be spent on that underground path, which is easier to use for long distance travel, but quite inconvenient for short distance travel, just because of it's depth.

It's not over the tunnel, and if you updated the map you would see it, it's just a mass of cobble right now

Jo, i'll send you the cords next time i get on(I'm on my phone right now as we are driving home)

After much strugling with Git and Github, I finally managed to get a copy of the server's game directory uploaded. I've decided I do not like git or Github, but everyone else here is using it. It would be helpful if we were all using the same system so we wouldn't have to learn to use fifteen different systems, so I guess I'll just deal with it.

Notes:
* whisper was removed, both from the server and from the game directory. It was poorly implemented in several ways, and I plan to rewrite something better from scratch.
* skins was removed from the game directory, but not from the server. Zeg9 seems to be missing. He hasn't logged into the forum for over a month. Since he's not here to accept my pull request, I'm going to steal his WTFPLed code, rework it a bit, and include it in the game on Github. When I'm done, it may not be as good for general use on servers, instead possibly being specificity set up for this server's game.

The first post has been updated to include the Github link.

Feel free to make pull requests if you want to add something, but please don't be offended if I decline. I have very specific restrictions on what gets added, and even if something meets those standards, if I don't like it, I won't add it.

Elvendale will be open to people moving in by next friday(8th) if i get the walls and the houses, and the noble houses, yea theres no way i'm meeting the deadline if i don't get help

Btw, when are we having the building contest? I'm excited for it!

[Bearbar123]

Were having a build contest??? On this server???

[0gb.us]

Btw, when are we having the building contest? I'm excited for it!

The city building contest I was holding was cancelled. I simply don't have time to host it. From what I hear, Rarkenin MAY be running one without me, but I could be mistaken, he might be too busy as well, or some other event may get in the way.

Were having a build contest??? On this server???

Maybe. I'm not sure what the details are.

[Adarqet]

Are there any pixel art on this server?

[rarkenin]

Are there any pixel art on this server?

It is allowed but there are no examples as of yet(except for a geometric structure made of mese near the trading center)

[Adarqet]

Ill make a huge statue of me.

I can host it and find a suitable place for it to be held if you let me.

You could do it near my place.
my house has a cactus top so it is green. make platforms in the water for a statue building contest. I would love to host it and judge it. i suggest postingpics of it here.

[Bearbar123]

Hey 0gb, you said the map update would be on wensday, where is it!!!! please post it soon if you can, i want to see Port-royal just pop up

[Chinchow]

The pirates of the carribean port royal?
If so then looking forward to it

[Bearbar123]

No, It's the next city i'm building, a trade city in between Haven and Elvendale

[Adarqet]

No, It's the next city i'm building, a trade city in between Haven and Elvendale

So you tryin to make a record by making so many cities, towns, kingdoms,etc...?

[jojoa1997]

you should make one big one with at least 100 houses in each of the 10 social class areas.

[Bearbar123]

No, i just see a place i want to build and start up and then i realize later maybe i build to much.

[0gb.us]

Issue after issue presented itself, at one point, even turning all the world into unknown nodes. But we have it sorted out now, and the server is up to Minetest 0.4.5.

do you know what happened?

[0gb.us]

Yes, many things happened.

Long story short, if there was an Ubuntu package, the update would have gone smoothly.

[Bearbar123]

Guys, i have an update, you can now buy house slots at Elvendale, it is not open for building until the 8th but is open to buying, 1 steel bar for a house

I think that there never was a problem on windows for 0gb.us_game because same symbol names (not caps) end up like this in the file names.

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

alpha
AlPHa0
ALphA1
alPHA2

and so on. 0gb have you actually gone on an windows computer and tested this or are you saying that windows works the same way as Linux even though they are different systems and compiled games.

No, there is no need to test this on Windows, if you have a basic understanding of what a case-insensitive file system means. And no, I would NEVER say Windows was ANYTHING like another system. There are many operating systems out there, and many are alike, but Micosoft doesn't follow standards, instead defining a new level of sucky. They call this level "Windows".

Also, are you looking at user files generated by Minetest, or the point files generated by my plugins? I'm aware that Minetest user files append a digit to file names to compensate for Windows's insufferable case insensitivity. It's able to keep track of the original user name because the file has a line in it like this:

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

name = jojoa1997

Using that, it can determine what user that file belongs to.

A system such as that doesn't work for 0gb.us_game. Minetest reads all the user files into memory and keeps them there. So it knows at all times what file is what. the plugins in 0gb.us_game on the other hand, only read the files into memory when the user that needs them logs in. When the user logs out, the file is forgotten. I can't simply append digits and make it work.

So yes, it's incompatible.

EDIT: I invite you to try my game in a test world, and remove the limiters. Do your experiment again, but start setting warp points. Then log in as another character with a file name clash, and you can warp to the first character's warp points. You'll see the exact problem I predicted is very much a reality.

i found an error

Yeah, I found that too. It's been fixed for a couple days. Re-download, and it should be fine.

Fixed crashing due to tables not being visible from landclaim_0gb_us/… …
