hehe, yea, kinda why I gave up on mods for now ^_^

until there's a decent "official" mod loader/library (steam *hint* workshop *hint*) it's all this fuzz with zips all over (not to mention the legal side of things, ppl re-distributing stuff they do not own n such)

Yep, the hosting part is the one giving me a headache too - but how else do you want to make sure everybody gets the same version of the mods? (without the workshop *cough*)
Especially keeping in mind the changes .11 brought. Some of the mods I like the most work perfectly fine when you adapt those changes - but there is no official patch on the forums...
I will gladly point (with links, if needed) to the correct pages, once there is a system for that...

But I think I will expand the list in the first post for a more detailed summary of the mods (e.g. version - and what I changed in particular, if I did it)

After checking the status page of my vServer I saw that a winX64 idling was eating up the whole free CPU time I get, so switched the whole setup over to Linux (I HATE command line, but well... :D)
The feeling when you take the better part of your free sunday setting up a linux and finding out why bash won't do what you want it to and suddendly it works: PRICELESS... :lol:

Back up and running on real headless for a fraction of the CPU time (damn you, M$ :D )

not at home till 9am CET so can't check atm.

Did you get the versions of the TS3?
Code differences in the addons may cause the desync...

When I have my next free day I should go through all files and rename any changed mod to make that resmebled in the file name. Was lazy when I first messed with them because I didn't think about a MP at that time... (which now seems to come back to bite my... - well you know what :P)

ok, got thrown of to with a desync so loaded the last save game and now it works again, but I do not like this... ;(

I hope it only is a minor addon I overlooked not MP-playable - will have to check that too...
And when you think the hard part is getting it up and running...

It was "only" ItemCount that was causing the crash on death... - now it should work!
Would be nice, but not that important.

So beware, if you're dead now, you stay dead ;)

P.S.: That means, if you want to reconnect you have to delete ItemCount from your Mods directory - when in doubt just redownload the directory from the TS

A question to the person continously removing the Hydrogen to solid fuel plant and killing my circuit switches:
You do realize that gold is bottling this up on purpose and will stall without a sink? And I am strictly against venting hydrogen if you can turn it into a steady source of solid fuel... :P

After the stuttering run of the first round and with over 5000 rockets launched i started a new map with updated mods.

The first post has been updated with the current settings.

Attention! Updated Transformator to version 0.0.5 as 0.0.4 crashed in MP (but only when you actually tried to place one)

Please load Transformator_0.0.5 either from the official source or from the TS3 ;)

Hi Setha,

I can't login on the server anymore. Seems like a desync loop happens even with only me and the server. And I don't even do anything. So right after map redownload it desyncs again...

Also the question:
Can we do the next map with very low ressource frequency but big ore fields? Also I would deactivate the bobs-modules (they are just too OP).
The current map is not really challenging. We have far enough ressources (close to the start base) and we didn't even build one real train route. There is a lot of fun in building train routes and tracks which I think get's lost like this currently. :)
