Claim to SinglePlayer Save with just one Command

bash/python/whatever the dev likes

now end of discussion, my dog wants to hold some serious conversation.

 

you haven't even tried refuting an argument of mine, i've been trying to have a serious conversation about this and you are using ad-hominid attacks and dodging all questions, the number of fallacies commited shows you have absolutely no clue what you're talking about

 

Python is better for testing a program, than actually using for an application, because it uses an interpreter rather than a compiler. Because of this it can be easier to test code, as well as finding bugs, but it's also 'live-action' (couldn't think of a better term) which means that it's going to be slower on the job.

Something like C++ Compiles the code (I forget whether it's directly to machine language, or if it becomes assembly language and then an assembler turns it into machine language, but w/e) which can be slow to do at first, but once it is done it's all converted without having to do so each time.

Python is flexible and great for testing as I said above, but once you've used it to confirm whether your pseudocode works, a lot of the time for large applications, you'll want to convert it to another language, such as C++.

 

hes got a point they would have to do some back end work using c/c++ also he is 100% when saying java is mostly useless for alot of things

 

It's actually quite useful, as it runs on nearly anything, however it's not as powerful as many other languages.

 

ye i know it runs on all the things thats why i like java but it has very little power

 

you'd still need to run 3 languages: C/C++ java and some random other one for doing the web part

 

most likly php

 

Well back on topic.

I believe this already exists.

World Downloader Mod - Minecraft Mods - Mapping and Modding - Minecraft Forum - Minecraft Forum

[1.8 / 1.8.9] World Downloader Mod - Create backups of your builds on multiplayer servers! - Minecraft Mods - Mapping and Modding - Minecraft Forum - Minecraft Forum

 

ok! then this entire topic is pointless... waittt a second it isn't up to date and it doesn't only do your claim, and only works if yo open the chests

 

There's no need to put everyone's answers down, them posting that actually is really helpful as slind could if he gets the appropriate permissions just fork that mod and turn it into what he wants, saving him quite a lot of legwork.

 

used that mod for hexxit a while ago. (mc 1.5.2 iirc)

but it failed for me with infinity. and as said it wouldn't save any inventory, so AE2 drives/content would be not in the save, Singularitys and probably way more modded Stuff.

problem might be that it saves itemids, which messes up blocks if server configuration is different to sp server config.

 

I have been more helpful to this topic then you have Chugga.

Have a programming argument on a programming forum.

 

look lets not turn this into a slaging match just stick your suggestions and move on

 

at least this way you can stop ppl from downloading others claims which could be used for easy recon i though about it lol down load someones base and take it apart lol but its unfair

 

I admit a few years ago (like 6) i would use a world downloader to find diamonds and other things for creative like play, then notch added creative.

 

Currently working on this project. It has basic functionality down pat, yet is not fully tested.

What it allows you to do:

• "/cmw add" adds a chunk to the list of chunks you want to save
• "/cmw dl added <save-name>" downloads the added chunks to a save with name given
• "/cmw dl claim <save-name>" downloads the entire claim
• "/cmw dl radius <radius> <save-name>" downloads a radius around the current chunk

All "/cmw dl" commands check for claim info. if you are an owner or have build perms, you should be able to download the claim

Public testing runs will need to be done before continuing with development and before full integration. A full backup and a few stress tests should be sufficient enough for about 1-3 hours, so even if it did rollback, it won't be for long.

Dates on possible public testing will be posted when available.

[DOUBLEPOST=1455883711,1455854334][/DOUBLEPOST]Btw just to ease the tension here I'll reply to some quotes made

No file hosting is needed, no IP checks needed, no "background" work is required, and it's only been about 5 days since I've been Dev with maybe 20 total hours spent on it.

To clear up how this works...

Player sends in game chat command ->
Server prepares and sends the data to the player ->
Player client receives the data and creates a save file.

At no time does the player client send information or packets to the server directly which cuts down most of the security issues mentioned in this thread

No web integration is needed and the whole project was written in Java

I have done multiple tests with large claims and so has Slind. The largest I've downloaded was 284 chunks in less than half a second.... it's fast

 

is this in claim only? or will it allow any area to be downloaded if so this may be an issue for severs like civ where this could give one side a huge advantage

 

Claim only, so it shouldn't be an issue for server like civ. You can "add" chunks manually, but the chunk must have a claim in it owned by you or that you have build perms on.
