Exploranza Server?

[Emra]

So I found this one in the public server list in game and I've been wandering around for a week or so. I like it there though wish it had mesecons to go with technic so I could build MV and HV machinery. They look like fun!

So is the server owner around here or does anyone know where to find them? I haven't seen them in game though I walked across their claimed area the other day.

I am also interested in contacting the administrator for this server. I'd like to reset my password for the username "pglandis" as the server stopped recognizing it. I am pretty sure I used the correct one but it is possible that I messed it up. If it isn't possible to reset the password, I don't mind the land areas being cleared or set to shared. I didn't get very far so it isn't a big loss, but I hate having dead space encroaching on adjacent players. I have already created another player anyway under a slightly different name so I will continue using that.

I also would be interested in having mesecons on this world as Emra is requesting.

I also have a bunch of questions about claim area size for this world. I am trying to map out where my scattered claims are.

1) Is a claim the standard 16X16? Or is it 15X15?
2) Does it all start at (0, 0, 0) or is it (1, 0 , 1)?
3) How deep does a claim go? It looks like it goes down to -60, then down to -120, then down to -200 (at which point everything is shared). I'm just looking for confirmation on that aspect.
4) Is there an upper vertical boundary to claims?

Thanks for any info that can be offered.

Why is it that I can't log in to my player via my computer? I created and have played on this server via my Samsung Galaxy S6 phone. I tried to get on with my laptop instead since I can't do certain things on my phone (like view entire inbox messages, change settings on certain tools, etc.), but even though I enter my identical username and password, it says "Error: Access Denied. Reason: Wrong Password."

I have not been able to connect to this server for over 48 hours. It just times out. I would suspect a recent upgrade of my phone to Android Marshmallow except I am certain I was able to play after the upgrade. It could still be that if a subsequent upgrade of the core app occurred that would have been incompatible, but I also tried logging on via my laptop without success so it must be a server issue. If anyone else checks in here, please confirm that you have not been able to connect as well.

I was able to connect today, but when it put me "in" the game, I could only see a dark grey haze and my stick. They controls seemed unresponsive, I couldn't view my inventory, and anything I typed in to the chat/command line didn't seem to go through. I will try again in a bit.

[plandis]

Correction: The controls appear to be working (can see the yaw value and coordinate respond on Debug Info when trying to move and jump and can see stick swinging). I appear to be stuck at (0, 0, 0) +/- 1 node radius with no inventory access. The /home, /time, and /help commands don't respond. Can see notifications of people entering and exiting the game, but can't see there locations on the screen. Also, no one responds to my chat messages so I don't know if they can hear me or just can't respond

*their locations. Also, the inventory selection bar and the health and food bars are missing from the bottom of the screen.

I was able to get into the game on my PC (using a different account because I have never been able to log on with the account I use on my android phone - says my password is invalid for some reason). The world is still there with everything I have built. In addition to all I have mentioned above, I determined that other players aren't notified that I enter or leave the game on my android account, nor can they send/receive chat messages to/from me so even that part of the command line is not working. I don't know how to view my location while playing on PC so I can't go to try to check or free myself from the (0, 0, 0) location, but I doubt I will find my Android-platform character. I expect he is just in limbo with some slight connection to the game. While on my PC-platform account, I sent a mail message to Emerald (aka Emra here), who is the only person I know in the game who I know is also on the forums.

So it turned out that my player file got corrupted somehow. I got a message to dynamodan and he restored it with a backup copy. He has been maintaining regular backups for just such problems. So everything is back to normal.
