3.2.3 works

as exspected version 3.2.3 fixs the config auto restart problem.

however pre release 2 has some features that were put in as tests, making it very unstable when booting up for the first time ... however i will patch this before i release it.

3.2.3 is almost ready to be uploaded

3.2.3 fixs a number of bugs including the hopper item drop problem and the config auto restart problem.

the hopper bit has been fully tested however due to the fact the config auto restart fix was not made back then, we are needing to test it out on someone who has the config auto restart problem.

every time i ask for your help to fix these bugs that you guys complain about, non of you say "yes, i want to help" so if your willing please come forward, however because i want these problems to go away ... i have 1 tester .... perfect for testing multiple computers

@nullschritt

R0.3 brings diffrent errors for diffrent people, meaning its hard to release a plugin that works on r0.3.

In my case it crashes my client, in your case, EOT does not work, in another case it can not find the config YML at all

Auto config restart maybe fixed

i currently need some testers with the auto config restart problem, i already know i have one guy who will properly test it for me, however more the better.

if it works it will be put into this plugin as soon as possible.

how it works

the Temp fix plugin stops the config being made, however can still read it. the problem with this is, if there is a new option in the config, you need to add it manually. and thats how this new patch works.

but thats not it, another tiny, simple, plugin drops in a new config in the place the ships plugin reads, meaning the whole process is automatic.

@Exagerate

sorry, but until i learn how to get values from other plugins YML, then load the variable like its another config file for this plugin - i can not stop ships flying into areas where they shouldn't.

3.2.3 bug fixs

now then, i want to show you guys what 3.2.3 fixs; so heres a list

• Hoppers - now items dont drop out
• Hoppers - fixed rotation
• Clay Block - fixed movement
• glass pane stained - fixed movement
• sandstone stairs - fixed rotation
• melonblock - fixed movement (i dont remember fixing it but my tester says i have)
• soulsand - fixed movement
• brick stairs - fixed rotation
• acacia log - fixed rotation
• acacia stairs - fixed rotation
• redstone repeaters - on 4th set should rotate (still needs testing)
• redstone comparator - they crash my client - however for those that they dont, they should now rotate - still need testing
• config - took out debug
• config - added section "debug"
• config - added many debug values

im still working on dispensers items falling out - the code is there, but its not reading it properly (shown in the debug)

@charlza

thanks, but 4.0 will take months to make (im building it in my own time, thats why it will take a long time, i am stopping every so often)

@Exagerate

sorry non so far, however look out for world edit support (it should say worldguard region support ... but still)

3 weeks away until i start to learn java from the beginning again. (im learning the android api as well, meaning its more then likely ill be making other plugins to do with android and bukkit - i need to see whats possible, then see what rules i can break (without getting into trouble) so after all that i then release what i can)

Ships 4.0

i plan to re-create all the code in this plugin, by using my own; methods, algorithms and code. it WILL be using bukkits recommended ways for the config (so no problems should occur with the config restarting). because it will be using my own full algorithms i should be able to fix every rotation bug simply. i will also be able to fix the hopper and dispenser problem (where the blocks fall out).

if everything goes right it will feel like a complete different plugin, because ships will NOT join together when they collide (unless someone right clicks the [ships] sign to save the ship - when its connected to someone elses ship).

Ships 4.0 should be using databases (making above possible) but it also means i will be able to; cap users to X amount of vessels, give users the ability to teleport there ship somewhere, add way more vessels.

and if everything goes correct, it will have exports - meaning you coders can create your own vessels as a addon (you maybe able to do a lot more with the imports)

Because ships 4.0 acts like a complete different plugin, i will carry on updating Ships 3, and label Ships 4 as something else. you guys come first.

i will also say im going to be creating a complete different config on Ships 4 so it does mean your old config will be useless, unless your sticking with Ships 3

oh and one last thing, its only possible with java 7 - so the major.minor bug will still be occurring

@bobbimohobbilfe

what are you typing on the sign?

is there a error?

if so, where is the error displayed?

and what error is it?

@nullschritt

its how many blocks forward the ship will move

@Drazhar753

i have just check the code back and forth, i can not see why that would happen. just check those 2 things.

if you defintly are saving the config whilst debug is false, and the console says debug is true when booting up. then can i take a copy of a log of yours (im only interested in the errors, and ships stuff, so if it records users typing their passwords in, you can remove them)

@Drazhar753

I have been having reports from a few users that the config says X value is false, however the plugin acts like its true.

I will look into in, using the code, however just make sure you are saving it, and tell me the value of debug when the server boots up (if it does not tell you, it means its false and reading it as false)

@nullschritt

Emerald_block is on the config in 3.2.2.4 - or it should be
