My host moved the server to the dedicated VPS, and the url changed in the process.

I see you used an older backup for the main map

Well, I had to dump the map and expand it using Omen, so any changes after that were lost when the new map was uploaded.

Quick question: Now that MCSharp is open source, should I have a go at creating custom content for the server? I'm not brilliant at C#, but I'm willing to have a go if you guys would like extra features.

sure why not

Right, first I'm gonna work on a few internal things that'll help with running the server (restart command, enhanced log, physics command for ops), then I'll start adding new features. The url for the beta server will be the same as the old server (the one I ran on my PC). Don't expect it to be on constantly though, since it'll only be up when I'm testing stuff.

>physics command for ops
YES
YES

Yeah, I've seen the logs and knew you guys would appreciate that. So far I've managed to make /physics usable by ops, upgraded the log so that it records how many blocks a player builds and destroys each session (this will greatly help me in tracking down griefers) and modified /whois and /whowas to also display alts that the user has.

I've sent the new files to my host, expect some downtime when it gets updated.
Reply by Gold Prognosticus Jun 09 2010 17:28 GMT

While we're waiting, here's a full changelog:

  • Ops can use /phsyics.
  • /physics now displays the current physics setting if a number is not specified.
  • The server now logs how many blocks each player builds and destroys when they log out.
  • The /whois and /whowas commands will now display any alts of the specified user.
  • The block spam autokicker now only affects guests.
  • /restart and /shutdown commands have been added for SuperOps.

I believe that's all the changes for this version (if I've forgotten anything I'll add it when I remember it), but I still have plenty more ideas.

The bad news: Crazy spai's been having trouble with his VPS, so the server is currently down and may stay down for a little while. The server appears to be back up now, but I don't know how stable it is.

The good news: I've moved the new server files into place, so as soon as the server is brought back up the new features will be ready.

Next feature needs to include the ability to build admin blocks off of admin blocks because It makes it impossible to fill something up with a substance

goron that made no sense

It makes plenty of *crag*ing sense you just read it wrong
Reply by Fallen Shade Jun 15 2010 11:43 GMT

Just finished the latest version, it'll update when Crazy Spai gets my PM and restarts the server (also, guest building has been reenabled):

  • On joining, the server will now tell you how many other players are online.
  • Developers and Supporters now have custom username colors (except when the user is an Op or SuperOp)
  • Modified heartbeat data so I can keep track of all servers using the custom MCSharp software.
  • The server will now alert Ops and SuperOps if the server software becomes outdated.
  • Temporarily disabled /restart since it was not working correctly.

Again, it's mostly internal stuff, but I'm about ready to start working on game features now - post any features you would like in this topic and I'll see what I can do (Keep in mind the more complicated a feature is the longer it will take for me to code it).

read my suggestion above
Reply by Fallen Shade Jun 17 2010 15:14 GMT

Just a quick update to help with griefspotting:

  • Server will now record the last user to modify each block - this can be accessed using /about.
  • Tweaked the code slightly so the log of blocks a user builds/destroys in each session also records blocks from commands.

As always, the changes will be applied once Crazy Spai restarts the server.

Would you guys be interested in a Digibutter spleef tournament?
Reply by Gold Prognosticus Jun 18 2010 16:42 GMT

I would be.

Although I'm usually asleep when most people are on.

Reply by THAT BOBZ GUY Jun 18 2010 19:16 GMT

I haven't gotten the opportunity to participate in any spleef games, but I would be interested in a tournament none the less.

Will we be doing this in teams if we have enough?
Reply by MattTheSpratt Jun 19 2010 00:10 GMT

Going for a major update next version, including:

  • Dynamically Loading Levels (Load and unload as needed) - Done
  • Portals - Done
  • Reserved Slots For Operators - Done
  • Server Software Namechange - Done
  • Possible Public Release?

In other news, I may start signups for the spleef tournament soon, and goron, if you're referring to the adminium at the floor of the level, I think the building restriction on that is a clientside thing, not a serverside thing.

Reply by Gold Prognosticus Jun 23 2010 11:06 GMT
what are the reserved slots for?
Reply by Nastasia Jun 23 2010 16:12 GMT
If the server is full, if you are an op you will still be able to get in.
Reply by Gold Prognosticus Jun 23 2010 16:14 GMT

it generates a singleplayer level when i try getting into the server now

Reply by Nastasia Jun 24 2010 01:41 GMT

crazyspai said it'd be down for about an hour or so

dunno how long ago that was

Reply by THAT BOBZ GUY Jun 24 2010 01:49 GMT
why
Reply by Nastasia Jun 24 2010 01:50 GMT

hell if i know, he just said he'd take it down for a minute

Reply by THAT BOBZ GUY Jun 24 2010 01:51 GMT
*crag*, he'll probably leave it down all night because he's a *crag*ing dick
Reply by Nastasia Jun 24 2010 01:52 GMT
Portals are working, but there's still a bug or two that I need to fix.
And be nice to the guy who hosts the server for us, if it wasn't for him there would be no server at all.
Reply by Gold Prognosticus Jun 24 2010 06:49 GMT
i know i know, it's just he leaves the server down way longer than he should sometimes
Reply by Nastasia Jun 24 2010 17:27 GMT
bump because no one comes here anymore
Reply by Nastasia Jun 29 2010 20:01 GMT

Crazy Spai's been having trouble paying for his server lately, although our server won't be affected (he'll move it over to his local pc if need be) I'm sure he'd appreciate it if you would consider making a donation - once he's downgraded it the server will cost $20/month.

Reply by Gold Prognosticus Jul 04 2010 12:21 GMT
why has this server been down the entire weekend
Reply by Nastasia Jul 07 2010 22:25 GMT
He probably can't pay for it anymore
Reply by Fallen Shade Jul 07 2010 22:29 GMT
lol paying for the internet. We steal our neighbors internet
Reply by Lord Crump B Jul 07 2010 22:32 GMT
Gold said our server wouldn't be affected
Reply by Nastasia Jul 07 2010 22:33 GMT
Well clearly he didn't know any better.
Reply by Tails Doll Jul 07 2010 22:37 GMT
Crazy spai's currently looking for a better provider and had to take the old one down, I'll speak with him and see if he can get the server running on his home pc soon.
