If you break ice, it turns into air (id: 0) instead of water (id: 8).

On the vanilla server that Notch wrote, broken ice turns into water (id: 8).

Neither servers (mineserver or the other) create an item you can pick up when ice is broken; keep it this way.

I have closed this Issue by mistake :\

I have made symlinks from /usr/local/include/ev*.h to /usr/include and it worked but I got errors from loading the object levent. I think it's mostly from my environment. I will try to fix this on my side.

I don't have a good way to explain it so I uploaded it to youtube. The server lets you use blocks before you should be able to, thus being able to bury yourself. Also, it does not count those blocks as being used.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sGzBYsIqVuc

Also, just an fyi, this is build rd25ec83 from http://mineserver.be/downloads/

Tried to look around to see if anyone reported these bugs and didn't find any.

-If you destroy a chest, anything dropped will not be able to be picked up.

-Also some blocks are either partially or entirely black. Screenshot below:
http://img140.imageshack.us/img140/5117/blacksteps.png

src/chunkmap.h uses std::tr1::hash, which is defined in the following include file according to the documentation - http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2005/n1836.pdf page 97:

#include TR1INCLUDE(functional)

The "unordered_map" include often does include "functional" (it uses it for its hasher type argument), but doesn't have to (and in fact it doesn't if you use the Boost variants, like I tried). Consequently, in some configurations leaving this include out will break compiling; adding it after the "unordered_map" include won't hurt though, since all include files have "guards" in them to prevent double inclusion.

When an item is left in the crafting table, it is destroyed rather than being dropped on the ground.

I've just tried this server under linux, and realized, that when I placed a minecart, I couldn't destroy it, and tried to push it forward, but i've just talk through it.

I've been googling around for an answer, originally, I had thought it was libnoise, but after continuous reinstalling of all libraries and such, I've hit a dead end.

It appears as though event.h does not exist, and in other articles it's stated that event.h is linked to libnoise. I'm a bit perplexed.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Hi there!

I'm able to use the client to connect to mineserver, which is awesome!, but unfortunately it's really stuttering, which means that the FPS are at ~10 and it just generally feels really laggy -- most of the time! But after some time on the server, there also are periods that feel very smooth.

The profiler shows that when it's laggy, up to 90% of time is spent in the tick section (which isn't the case for the official server). More specifically, in tick.level.checkLight.unspecified. So as @fador suggested in the IRC, it seems to be related to lighting.

Since I have no clue how lighting works -- does anybody have an idea why this happens and how to fix it? I would love to try to fix it, but I just have no idea where to start :)

Hello,

I was trying this software on my server and I have few issues with the players. They often (every 1 or 2 minutes) get disconnected with this message

java.io.UTFDataFormatException: malformed input around byte 68
at java.io.DataInputStream.readUTF(DataInputStream.java:631)
at java.io.DataInputStream.readUTF(DataInputStream.java:547)
at ky.a(SourceFile:16)
at hj.b(SourceFile:108)
at kx.c(SourceFile:157)
at kx.c(SourceFile:15)
at rd.run(SourceFile:68)

The byte is changing sometimes, it's not always 68.

On the server side, in the log I can see this

Info from Sockets: Socket closed properly
Info from Sockets: Socket had no data to read

Often, all the players get disconnected at the same time with the same error (i don't know if it's the same byte), but from what I heard, yes, it's the same.

I built the server on a Debian 5 x64 following the INSTALL's instructions. The clients are either on Windows (32or64 I don't know) or Linux (64 bits).

If you need more informations, please ask :)

Thank you

I've built mineserver for an ARM cpu. It compiles fine with the sse extension disabled, but does not allow connections. The server gives the following message when a client tries to connect:

[01:23:07] mineserver.cpp:653::run(): Listening on: 
[01:24:01] map.cpp:712::getBlock(): Invalid y value (0, -1, 0)
[01:24:02] map.cpp:712::getBlock(): Invalid y value (0, -1, 0)

This repeats, and the client does not connect. The server must then be killed with kill -9.

Presently, libnoise is failing to be included on Ubuntu

I get the following error with the above (ignore the ncurses error for now, had to install ncurses-dev to get it to go away, the actual issue is with libnoise)

If I alter the include on line 34 to libnoise/noise.h, it works as expected (I need to make the change in all locations it's looking for noise.h, however).

Not sure with the IF for detecting DEBIAN isn't working.

Hello,
Mineserver is really great project !
I've just got an old PowerMac G4@1,25GHz to run a Minecraft server.
I've tried to run the official minecraft_server.jar which is heavy and takes over 95% of CPU usage. So I wanted to test Mineserver.

I've managed to build the git sources and launch Mineserver on powerpc / ubuntu. But when I connect, my username is troncated, "Ambobo25000" becomes "moo50", first issue.

Here is the console log :

[22:01:42] map.cpp:711::getBlock(): Invalid y value (0, -2147483648, 0)
etc ... (keep falling and kill himself)

I tried to modify the spawn point with MCEdit but mineserver keep spawing me under my world !

I'm running mineserver on :
PowerMac G4@1,25GHz, 1.25Go RAM
ubuntu-server 11.04

And the client is running on MacBookPro MacOS 10.6.7

If someone joins server, the light is not rendered outside the sources chunk, happens with lightstone and torches.
Torches sometimes don't emit light at all until replaced or another light source is placed in or around the same chunk.

Placing Glass in the Air (and stepping onto it (only then?)) removes the Glass.

I have noticed that if you are very far away from your "home", if you issue /home, it sends you to some type of limbo that looks like you are hovering in the sky. If you just type /home again however, it seems to send you back just fine.

Stop in /usr/home/manhim/Projects/mineserver/src.

Would it be related to something wrong with my libevent installation or just that it's not supported at all on FreeBSD?

Clicking a Storage Box with a Torch selected puts the Torch onto the Box

I can't seem to get large chests (two chests next to each other) to work. It only opens one normal-sized chest, with the items at the x,y,z block (as if it was one block instead of two).

The libnoise headers is by default located in /usr[/local]/include/noise, not in /usr[/local]/include/libnoise.

This is tested in arch linux when installing libnoise from the AUR repository and on FreeBSD when installing the devel/libnoise port.

When right-clicking on a mob (e.g. on a sheep to use shears), the server actually tries to attach the player to the mob, which leads to the client crashing (with an "end of stream").

If you equip a mining tool, such as a diamond pickaxe/shovel/axe/sword, and then right-click on any block, you will lose your tool.

Protocol has changed.

Is there a help command? Could not find it here:
http://mineserver.be/wiki/Commands

Would be nice if you typed /help and all the commands available to you would show up. E.g. for admins also admin commands. Also, when doing e.g.
/help tp
it would display a short help message for the tp command.

When log in, it lose 1 life or 1/2 life and there is no error in the log file.

Lenny ships a cmake that is too old for mineserver.

When i run the server and log in, i just keep falling and see no blocks. The server outputs this when loading:
Failed to open file world/region/r.0.0.mcr
Error loading file
And this when i log in:
[00:00:53] :723: Loading chunk failed (getBlock)
Failed to open file world/region/r.0.0.mcr
Error loading file

In last win rev, all mining item's disapear when you destroy 2 blocks

When player drops item using q the item drops always in the same direction regardless of where user is watching.

From there it's just errors related to not finding it. Confirmed 9c28363 still compiles correctly and has no issues with libnoise.

• single build system is better for maintaining
• using cmake overwrites custom Makefile

a bit of quick comparison:
CMake is already used and can generate native project files for IDEs, etc.
Qmake: syntax is similar to Makefiles, so is very easy
SCons: syntax is python

as nobody likes to change things that hard, i go for updating cmake stuff :P

Could you give me commit access so I can commit this directly? I'd like to help further with the project.

When I "built" the server files, it left out the "command.o" command.cpp"

How do I fix this?

I was building a lair on the bedrock and noticed some problems concerning gravel and gravity. On major thing I noticed was that if you put dirt over gravel and mined the gravel, the dirt would fall. It also seemed like only one gravel would fall at a time if multiple blocks were stacked.

When ever i place items, usually ones gotten from /i, they disappear a few seconds after placing them. Then, after i dig the same type of block, they all re-appear in my inventory.

Sand/Gravel does not fall down sometimes (ever?) when mining the lowermost of it

Iron Doors don't open via Redstone-Torches, they open with a simple left-click like normal wooden doors.

It seems sometimes that if you break a lot of blocks, some may not be able to be picked up.

I already tried the suggested "deleting player data" suggestion. This seems to be the best server solution but it has been unplayable as the second someone starts moving, the other gets disconnected, and the write size varies. I think its urgent as the server cant function at all correctly as a result
