Zone Help!

[Cren]

Okay so i think ive gotten enough ASSS known to get the server UP. it is now on the list(ChronoContinuum) but unconnectable, how do i fix? or is it just cause i dont have a zone host(yet)?

 

i still have yet to

1:customize ship Models-I suck at drawing on the internet lawl but with a decent program and a tutorial i could work it out eventualy.i dont plan on using the Models right off the bat anyways

2:Add custom items to the ?buy menu-i think the word "Huh?" describes what i know about that -.-

3:Fine-Tune the ships energy,Fire rate,firepower,shrap,shrap damage and the map

 

The map i can do myself but if you have any pointers for me id gladly hear them out

 

Thx everyone for all the help Youve given me so far

Edit:Wooh no help (Sarcarstic)

Edit2:just confirmed by somone else ChronoContinuum is on the download list (when i load up asss anyways) but just cant connect so pretty sure i need a host

It hasn't been that long. You may need to wait a little while for help.

You can find a host at the above link. Is your server running behind a firewall? If yes, check that the port ASSS is running on and that port +1 are forwarded.

 

If they are forwarded, post your conf/global.conf (but for your sake take out the passwords and for everyone else's put it in code brackets)

Are you having the problem connecting?

 

If not then leave it at that in till you get everything setup. What you really need right now is a development zone. I like to use an offline server so I can develop everything before I put it up on a real server.

 

If you have a firewall on your computer (like windows defender or something like that), you should add the port you are using in it so it will pass through, like Gannon said.

 

I've had a few problems with ASSS. That's why I don't tend to use it as a development server. IMO, I'd just go to Subgame2, because it's easier, You don't really need ASSS unless you are planning on testing a module or something around those lines.

why would you only need to be testing a module to use AS³?

I said around those lines, meaning, modules, updating something importing something like HSCore. Other then doing anything like that, the rest can be done with subgame.

@OP

 

If you're trying to connect to your zone, you'll have to add it manually using Name: ChronoContinuum, Port: #, IP: 127.0.0.1

 

The reason why other people can't connect is because you probably have a router preventing them from accessing the zone. As was mentioned, you'll need to access your router's settings and forward your zone's port and one above it.

@hakaku OMG i thought i already added it like that.just double checked and i didnt now i can get on thx alot.

 

Whoo now i can test things out!

For the time being.uhhh can anyone explain how to add/customize/limit etc the ?buy list like HS did?

[Acer]

Well, have you taken a look at the HSCore Dr Brain has released?

 

Well here's how to customize it a little. Basically if you search around forums.minegoboom.com you could find what you need.

lol i didnt understand half the stuff on those pages....i sooo need to learn coding D:

Edit:*browsing random pages*

Edit2:is there anyway i could skip browsing a kazilion pages trying to figure this out and somone could just give me a small tutorial on how to add and customize the ?buy menu? i dot understand half the crap in hscore cause im a newb.

YES IM GETTING FRUSTRATED

Also a less important matter.

why wont my map load? when i use my customly created map it dcs me from the zone and when i try to use a different map it shows blank just empty space with a box wall

Well, Did you just add your map to your Asss folder? Or did you go into the game and upload the map that way?

 

If it's all blank then the arena is probably not able to read it or cannot find it.

Go to Arenas -> Default -> Arena. Open it up, right at the beginning you should see [ General ]and under that should be Map = smallmap.lvl. Change the smallmap.lvl to your mapname.lvl. That might fix the problem.

 

And probably the only people that could give you a lot of help is Dr Brain, and maybe D1.

HSCore will definitely be too complicated for someone who's just starting out. It's nifty, but also has a lot of features you'll probably not need. If you get it to work though, then it can be very powerful.

 

At its base, to create a custom ?buy menu with new items, you need to first deactivate the default buy module. The next step is to create your own; this will, unfortunately, require knowledge of how to write a module. Essentially, all ?buy is, is a command that sends a bunch of text to the player. If the player adds a specific parameter (like ?buy antiwarp), then you handle this by prizing them antiwarp and removing points (if you want credits/money, then you need to write additional modules for those).

 

It sounds all complicated, but with a little bit of determination, you could write a basic one of your own.

ah so thats what i missed ty

hmm.....

Eit: still a map problem now it loads the map but it doesnt last long. after 1-10 seconds it disconnects me for no reason

Edited August 15, 2009 by Cren

[Acer]

This should help you.

 

Also what do you mean? Are you able to enter the zone then download the map?

Edited August 15, 2009 by Acer

[Cren]

yeah it disconnects me after i join but the map shows and everything its just why should it disconnect me from the zone for no reason?

Edit:im surprising my self with how determined i am to even make a zone lmao
