Have you tried picking the tanning rack up and dropping it back down again? Pick up items by looking at them and holding down the action key.

Does sound like its got into a pickle.

Hi @red51

@EventMethod
    public void onPlayerRespawnEvent(PlayerRespawnEvent event) { 
        System.out.println("Respawn Event. . ."); 
}

This method appears to be called twice when a player respawns.

Also, when a player dies from falling, player attack, starvation, or animal attack, the onPlayerDeathEvent method is invoked - as expected.

However, when a player dies from tnt explosion this event is not called.

Ahh fantastic, great looking plugin Yahgiggle!

Will this still work with the new updates in regards to none-unique name? Or will you have to update it?

Am I right to understand that this does not work with MySQL and only works with SQLite?

Look in your steam app folder. I believe it's C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\RisingWorld\Worlds or something very similar. Of course this is only if you're on Windows and Steam.

On Linux try searching for a world name with the extension .db that should find it. Such as "My World.db"

In between the lines I read "raft building"

I would love to see an official area protection / block protection. I'm sure others would too

Are you using steamcmd?

No, most of steam servers are available as anonymous (no account needed). so no need to install steam and give credentials to install them.

Thanks for clarifying botchikii, it is an old article I'm reading.

I did say I was often mistaken

Are you sure the steam dedicated server can be downloaded anonymously? im getting "failed to install app 33910 <no subscription>" I want to try and avoid installing steam on my server if possible as I want all the resources available for the server.

From what I've read (so far) you need a steam account to run a steam server, and the account needs to be different to that of the one you play with otherwise you won't be able to play on your own server. The "server" steam account doesn't need to have any games associated with it though. It doesn't look like the steam server has that much of a footprint on hardware resources. Still reading but I thought I'd share what I understand so far. Please do correct me if I am mistaken! ( I often am )

Edit: it's an old article on hosting a counterstrike source server I'm reading. It does look like there is maybe limit on server slots too. I.e 32 players.

a plugin would be the better idea

Yep I was thinking along those lines too either a prefix or a postfix

P.s. I think we all await your god like plugin skills

Ops skim read too fast (my mistake)! But that still doesn't stop anyone not on the reserve list.

Edit: maybe a plugin is in order Anyways, upshot is I would rather this than a DDOS.

Just a thought, how can we prevent someone impersonating another user?

That's great! I have just started my plugin and was using the username as a unite a unique ID. Updating to getUserID() shouldn't be a problem! And I've had many people ask if you can change username.

I suspect to protect again the DDOS attack IP ranges have been blocked, of which we unfortunately fall within.

I restarted Steam and now im in

Yep same here this morning.

Awesome great API really getting me back into coding!

Thanks noci I'll give that a go soon. I've been somewhat sidetracked with linked lists at the moment ( admittedly it may be overkill but I'm trying to think long term )

Here is my test method for this.

@EventMethod
    public void onNpcDeath(NpcDeathEvent event) {

      System.out.println(PREFIX + "NPC Death Event called. . .");

      if (event.getKiller() == null ) System.out.println(PREFIX + "NPC killed by a null object"); 

      if (event.getKiller() != null ) System.out.println(PREFIX + "NPC killed by an object"); 

      if (event.getKiller() instanceof Player ) { 
          System.out.println(PREFIX + "NPC was killed by a player");
      } else {        
          System.out.println(PREFIX + "NPC was NOT killed by a Player");
      }

Now, when I kill a NPC (with an axe, if that matters) in game the log shows:

Loaded Worldpart (v3) from cache: -1 - 0  (129ms)
< < < <  MEDIEVAL REALMS  > > > > Player Spawned. . . 
< < < <  MEDIEVAL REALMS  > > > > NPC Death Event called. . .
< < < <  MEDIEVAL REALMS  > > > > NPC killed by an object
< < < <  MEDIEVAL REALMS  > > > > NPC was NOT killed by a Player
NPC (ID: 131) deleted!

Which implies it's not an instance of a Player object?

Hi! Me again! I hear the groans!

I'm testing the event methods with a system output line and believe I've stumbled on a bug? Here is my test method:

@EventMethod
    public void onNpcDeathEvent(NpcDeathEvent event) {
      System.out.println("NPC Death Event called. . .");
     }

I spawned a bunch of pigs, and started to slaughter them (I know the vegans are screaming out - trust me it was all done humanly!).

I tested the following weapons, [war hammer, long sword, small mace, mace, morning star, small battleaxe, pickaxe, axe, stone-axe, sword] all worked fine and I saw the following in the console.

NPC Death Event called. . .
NPC (ID: integer) deleted!

However, it appears that projectile weapons such as the musket and crossbow do not invoke this event method resulting in the console output:

NPC (ID: integer) deleted!
