Constructor Fixes

by Jaimi McEntire · in Constructor · 01/14/2008 (11:56 am) · 55 replies

All right, as everyone knows I've been working on some constructor fixes.

Though I am not one of the original authors, I can still find and fix some bugs. If you have a bug in constructor, I will look at it if you can do the following:

1. Send me a *complete* .CSX file that contains the issue (as small as possible, please).
2. Send me a *complete* description of how to duplicate the problem.

It's quite possible that I will not be able to fix the issue, so don't get your hopes up. However, it is also quite possible that I can.

Please post a message here in this thread before emailing.

Jaimi

@just_luvbug:

Since I would have to host the torrent on my server, I would end up getting a lot of hits that my Netgear router would detect as a "FIN scan" or "ACK scan" DOS attack. However, If you (or anyone else) would like to create a torrent and seed it, I would be more than happy to send it to you.

Well, I would like to take the credit, but the truth is that the work I have done is extremely minor compared to the work that the actual authors have done. All I've done is add some error checking and work-arounds, and create some plugins.

Not big on the whole torrent thing. As 80% of the US connections are setup in such a way that hosting a torrent is going to be throttled down and/or reach its limit fast. While I may have a nice fast 16megs down I only have a 512 update that results to around 40k/s before it oversauates the connection and drops everything to a snails speed.

With that said though if you need some place to host your patchs just let me know and I can provide you with some quality webhosting (and no need to worry about the bandwidth as its all covered upto 2TB a month)

Ahh well, it was just a thought. I guess we can thank the pirates for the throttling, eh?

I guess I didn't post my thanks to you for your support and continued development of Constructor, thanks.

I'll supply a mirror as well if needed, just give me a shout. Plenty of space and bandwidth available on my dedicated webserver if you need it.

It has been nice to see GG provide some updates to Constructor but it's even nicer to see the community chip in. Thanks a ton Jaimi.

Any fixes related to portals are welcome.

I think it would be nice to see Constructor turn into more of a community effort. I know there are some issues related to handing out the code base, but couldn't that be tied to someone having a TGE/TGEA license? I could see some useful things coming from this type of participation.

There is a (simple, I assume) bug with saving files that contain spotlights. When you save and then close and re-open the file, the lights are pointing weird directions.
