Version 4.7

Bug fix's
Portals no longer gets the information needed from the database on every block change.

you could count it and then remove what ever and get what is left so say the stake size is 10 then you do 10 - 2 = 8 2 goes somewhere and 8 stays in the slot

i never did a thing lol its always been abale to do this, and if people are talking about it then its working lol 😂

I'm struggling to change settings so that my wilderness areas aren't all locked by default. When I click /wp to bring up the admin tool, I'm not able to change any of the presets, just the number of points per hour. Can someone help me figure this out, please?

EDIT: This is my Singleplayer game

You need to click admin tools, this will open the control for unclaimed areas, if admin tools won't open then you need to add yourself as a admin.

Lol I've had some good comments about it, hey you don't need to be jelly Lol

Does not exist yet.

There are no plans to add any other ores, this may change after the game is finished But don't expect them anytime soon.

Quote from james1bow

as my server is using the database a lot im starting to get connection open/locked issues. tho currently ive not noticed any negative effects of this im going to switch to mySql. my question is, do i just make one connection for all players? or should i make a new connection for each connected player and close it when they disconnect? asking as i have never messed with mySql

the try catch automatically close's the connection anyway well, its meant to so you shouldn't need to close the connection, i was doing this and then started to run into closed connection problems lol

Ive not talked to red51 about this but I have been told he knows about it and it is getting fixed, for when is a question only he can answer,

You make that file directory in the build or in the plugin directory on the server? If I would guess, you put that in the Plugin directory as just a plain file. I read one of the methods used a jar file so it confused me a bit as to the best choice.

going to use your suggestion thanks.

you don't really need the assets folder but I like to have them, yes the files should go into the plugin folder, as long as the right path is set the folder does not matter

It's not good practice, but you could do this:

Java

import net.risingworld.api.*;

Importing everything in the API.

I'm just about at that point with world protection 😆

// i use 

player.getNpcInLineOfSight(500, (npc) -> {your code here} 
    
//500 is the max distance 

for objects you could use a number of events like onPlaceObject onHitObject etc etc

Red51 i think is planning on adding such types of blocks but that wont come for some time.

Version 4.6

• When deleting a portal the portal and its text are now fully removed, for all players at the time of deleting it

ok this works ive tested it

          // get the connection
          WorldDatabase NPCdatabase = getWorldDatabase(WorldDatabase.Target.Npcs);

          // set the chat command to test
          if (cmd[0].equalsIgnoreCase("/test")) {

          // set the variable
          String Count = "Billy";

          // Query DB
          try (ResultSet Result = NPCdatabase.executeQuery("SELECT COUNT(*) AS count_name FROM npcs WHERE name LIKE '"+Count+"'")) {

          // check for a result   
          if (Result.next()) {
          // output the result to text message 
          int db_count = Result.getInt("count_name");
          player.sendTextMessage("count="+db_count);
          }
          }catch(SQLException sQLException) {}
          }

In the npcs table under names the default is null so doing a count of that if no names are added, will result in a null

Read above made a edit and added more info, sorry i did not see your reply till after i refreshing the forum for some reason oO

Not tested but this should work

// Don't forget to also get the connection to the world database 
WorldDatabase database = getWorldDatabase(WorldDatabase.Target.Npcs);

database.executeQuery("SELECT count(*) FROM `npcs` WHERE 'name' LIKE '"+playernm+"'")) { 

// get the result
int db_count = Result.getInt(1);


}
