Thanks!

3D text and world editing?? lol whoever wants it will implement it. There are a few features that are far more important just now. I'd need to have some use case of 3d text usage... right now, the only use I can think of is some sort of showing area names (i.e. area protection), or if anyone wants to create some type of mini-game of some sort...

yeah your right maybe it should go into the admin tools, admins can use it for banners that show rules ect ect but yeah i hate the look of it so don't use it

nice work LordFoobar now we need 3d text added i wont use this but i feel some players will want it

Why

That was very short!!! lol but can i ask why did you say why heheh

yes in php i used explode something like this

$min_rand=rand(0,1000);
$max_rand=rand(100000000000,10000000000000000);
$name_file=rand($min_rand,$max_rand);  //this part is for creating random name for image


$ext=end(explode(".", $_FILES["file"]["name"]));//gets extension where i use explode


move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"],"/new folder/" . $name_file.".".$ext);//actually reponsible for copying file in new folder


$filenameimage="../upload_image/" . $name_file.".".$ext;
$actualimageurl="../upload_image/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"];

with the Knitting type table in game i think we can all do knitting one day lol maybe im a old lady too because i want to knit me a new outfit my Santa outfit is looking old and gray

Ich hatte kurzen ganz besonderen Gast auf dem Server, hab da ja einen besonderen Thread erstellt, aber wollte ihn natürlich hier auch mal vorstellen.

Sie gelangten an Liebe posters hehe nice job

i was thinking you guys are more into sitting around with tea and scones than causing violence lol the past posts make you sound like hippys or old lady's, all you need now is your knitting and your set lol ;-P

I'm actually using a "fractal" approach to find the actual correct y value

sounds awesome cant wait to see your improved planting script it sounds epic

dont forget to also add at lest -0.5 onto the y or the plants will look as if they are floating so y will be - 2.5 in the end

can i ask what would this be used for in this game ?

ok [Dk/EU] Xstatic survial gaming this is the only server you have been on am i right ? the ip for this server is 217.172.179.54 and it has port 4255 open if this is the case this server is from Germany the sever has a domain name of chicago279.startdedicated.net witch looks to be only a redirection to your server from the true host http://tucowsdomains.com witch then leads to the Reseller: http://www.intergenia.de/en/ witch do hire out servers for less starting at around $28.99/month for a AMD Athlon™ X2 (Dual-Core, 2x 1.8 GHz) 4 GB DDR2 2x 320 GB SATA(5,400 rpm, 8MB) if this is what you guys have done then the problem maybe that the hardware cant keep up? for game servers its all about speed i would never run this game on that server. also i dont know what power costs over in Germany but that server here would cost about 29 dollars a month to run oO so i think they are bull craping you and in fact you are using what they call a dedicated shared server.

We host on a dedicated server.

we did a fresh install that includes a new world.

I wrote to our hosting comp. and they said that our harddrive was working fine.

who hosts your server ? is it a host that's setup to host game servers from also could we see the error log, i ask about the host because some hosts will bottle neck your server if cpu goes over a set limit, i know you say its a dedicated but that means jack some hosts say things like we use dedicated servers witch is true but what tye don't tell you is that server hosts 100 other things oO, to get true dedicated server you have pay big money each month around 100 us dollars oO or host from your own server at home. if its not setup right and its a shared server then they can limit the bandwidth and cpu witch can cause database errors. this is one of the main reasons why i got into hosting my own servers.

this looks to be database problem, there is a number of factors that can cause this, one of them is hard drive is about to fail die, have you been getting warnings lately of drive errors or windows saying anything about your drive and to back up data, been that you made a fresh copy i don't think the database would be too big to cause problems yet.

With world edit it is very simple to make ore vanes /we select mark LINE deep into the ground then /we fill iron. Or whatever ore you want

what about if after inventory is full, rocks no longer disappear they start to build up as ore rocks that you can come back and pick up later say in a set time before they vanish,

Quote from Meltron

It quiet takes some time to make construction elements fit correctly between other objects.
E.g.: http://steamcommunity.com/shar…filedetails/?id=513707420
Let's say I want to place that plank just between these two beams. To do that, I have to manually change the size of the plank until it fits.
Therefore, I would be much easier if there was a faster way to do that. For example, if you would click on the right beam with mouse3 and then on the left one, it would recognize that the lenght of the plank matters here and automatically change its size correctly to make it fit in.

this is a very nice idea also what about if you hit a key that enables auto fit witch makes it go between areas in a given area

i dont think java is the problem as it would not even give you that error maybe drivers or you have to low of a spec computer only way we can help find out is we need more info like your computer specs and that error log red has asked for .

Turn your screen resolution down icon that can help reduce flicker

Maybe we can coach the penguins as servants, they already look thus.

them penguins look so cute i wonder how they will sound and if they will huddle up in packs like they do in real life lol

Quote from icon58

Okay so I played around with this a bit pretty cool all in all. My question is how do you do large areas? I have seen worlds cleaned up with lots of edits and thought either A "that person has a lot of time in to that"

B more likely that person knows something I don't. So which is it people?

yeah it takes hours the city area on my server took 3 weeks even with world edit oO
