Connecting lamps to a button or lever

 

I haven't played with is much since, but I will try again today.

What was happening was, I would setup the streetlight and then i would left click it with the redstone torch and it would say creating a street light, but the glowstone would stay glowstone. Yet, if I removed the power supply, it turned to glass.

I did try to make a new one a little later, but I kept a clock in my inv...it worked alright.

The other plugin is called WeatherRestrictions.

 

I'll take a look at WeatherRestrictions and if it interferes with the plugin on my server.

The only cases when it stays Glowstone on my server is when I create it at night or when it's raining...
Ah, and say are you using multiworld? If you do, I must say that I haven't implemented anything considering multiworlds yet. So I can not say how it will behave. I feel like doing this today

 

Ive had great success with it today...we made a roadway that turns to glowstone at night..

And love the new add on...

 

i have the settings set to default, but i can't get it to react to weather still, its raining and they stay off, i would like to use these in my city i am building, (and not have glowstone lining the underground)

they turn on when it hits night, but turns off when it hits day , all while its still raining

tried without rain before built, when raining, nothing

 

hm... I took a look into my serverlog and saw this

Code:

2011-07-06 10:47:26 [INFO] [StreetLamps] power enabled

2011-07-06 10:47:26 [INFO] StreetLamps 0.4.3 is enabled

It ran with default config and guess what, weathermode was not loaded
one line one issue
*fixed*

 

@Ginsek1988 hay just wanted you to know this works with itemcraft!!
and CB#900 1.6.6
im waiting for itemcraft lol

 

actually whats itemcraft?^^ I read something about it on nitrado.net since there's an option to install it on your minecraftserver but we were fine with minecraft as it is

 

This was spitout in log after half of my streetlamps stopped working.

I broke em, replaced em, set em and changed to day.

Say, could you post your config as well?

This is the last one from my plugin and there are two possible sources which could lead to the NULLPointer. (block and MATERIAL_OFF)

Code:

at de.bukkit.Ginsek.StreetLamps.Lamps.Blocks.Bulb.forceOff(Bulb.java:38)

Code:

38: block.setTypeId(SuperLamp.MATERIAL_OFF);

I think there is something wrong with the MATERIAL_OFF which is loaded from the config when the plugin is loaded.

 

Great Mod!
Although I did a time change and now they don't go with the time D:
It was night time then i changed it to day time and also with the weather
This is with a mod called Flatland (a world) they still work but its out of timeing
u see prob?
soz if thats not enough information(Working Now)
The Lights have a little delay in time change but eventually it gets right

 

Great plugin! I use it in all my towns and stuff.

 

fixed, thank you

you should add it so that it can be just the glowstone and not a stick under it, i have some glowstone in the ground acting as a pathway and when people look down thru the glass they see the stick and my redstone (messy)

 

Code:

# # #
# defines when the Lamps turn off/on
#  manually   - when hit with a REDSTONETORCH (turns off everything else)
#  daytime    - depending on daytime
#  power      - the Block underneath the Lamp has to be powered to turn it on
modes: daytime,power

# # #
# shall the Lamps react to weather?
weather: true

# # #
# bulb material
on: 89
off: 20

# # #
# version of this config (can't touch this)
version: 1

I have a screenshot of the pathway i built. It worked the first day and then after a reload half of it turned off. So when i try to reset them, i got the error i posted previously.

 

this would work very well with Redstone Chips and it's Sensor Library.

Make a photocell to turn the lights on at night.

Edit:

And I'm a moron.

I didn't see that it acts upon it's own Photocell...

If you need a light sensor at a different area, try Redstone Chips.

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

Yea okay you have a point, I think I'm going to make this an own lamp. "bottomlamp" or so, since it would not need a height to be saved.

(If anyone can figure out better names for any lamp, let me know )

Currently I just taje the time of the world and not the light level. But will add this later.

hmhmhm... Oh well, i think I have to take a look into the source of

Code:

net.minecraft.server.World.a(World.java:1630)
net.minecraft.server.World.a(World.java:1604)
net.minecraft.server.Chunk.f(Chunk.java:141)
net.minecraft.server.Chunk.c(Chunk.java:132)
net.minecraft.server.Chunk.a(Chunk.java:300)
net.minecraft.server.World.setRawTypeId(World.java:305)
net.minecraft.server.World.setTypeId(World.java:370)
org.bukkit.craftbukkit.block.CraftBlock.setTypeId(CraftBlock.java:127)

But first I am going to build a row of lamps as you described and see what happens.

later

I made two walkways, one with only one line of glowstone and another one with 2 of them.
Did'nt have any problem restarting the server.
I'll look into the source now.

Could you provide a screenshot of yours?

Code:

net.minecraft.server.World.a(World.java:1630)

Tha's crap... I hate it when functions are named a,b,c and variables are named i,j,k

Some code in detail (open) Some code in detail (close)

This is taken from net.minecraft.server.World.a()

Code:

1607: public void a(EnumSkyBlock enumskyblock, int i, int j, int k, int l, int i1, int j1, boolean flag) {
1620:    ...
1621:       if (flag) {
1627:          ...
1628:          MetadataChunkBlock metadatachunkblock = (MetadataChunkBlock) this.C.get(this.C.size() - k2 - 1);
1629:
1630:          if (metadatachunkblock.a == enumskyblock && metadatachunkblock.a(i, j, k, l, i1, j1)) {
1631:              return;
1632:          }
1633:       }
1634:    }
1635:
1636:    this.C.add(new MetadataChunkBlock(enumskyblock, i, j, k, l, i1, j1));
1637:    ...
1649: }

enumskyblock is an enum and should not be null
i,j,k,l,i1,j1 are integers and therefor should not be null
metadatachunkblock is from World.java:1628

C is an ArrayList which contains MetadataChunkBlocks.
C is private and it only gets new elements added in line 1636.

Since I don't get what all those abc methods do ... I don't get the problem

I think it was a serverissue since the only thing I did was
"Hey WORLD, give me the block at this location."
then this
"What? It is null? Oh, nevermind."
or this
"Oh great we got a block. Hey WORLD, set this blocks typeID to 20"

Say, did this happen several times or just once?

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

And i wanted to make homemade streetlamps -.-
good idea :]

 

If you need any additional pattern let me know

 

Well, we have yet to reset it, as of now only 3 out of about 30 work as streetlamps.

This is during creation, the sides were alternated.

There is a glass layer on top to protect the glowstone in this picture, but it was modified a little later.

This is after a day/night cycle

Hm, thats strange.

Ahhaha, while writing this response I could reproduce your servercrash
It was when I changed day/night too fast. Will look into it soon.

In the new version there will be a bottomlamp (yes, really innovative names on my side).
Since polelamps have a minheight of 0 right now i'll set this to 1 and convert all poles those poles to Bottoms.

I could not reproduce it again...
The lines slightly differ from yours (e.g.: Chunk.java:144 isntead of Chunk.java:141) but still it seams to be the same problem. At the same time my timelistener throwed an exception which was not shown in the console but in the log.
Since the timelistener and the game itself are two threads I have to make the plugin thread save. Well didn't expect this to happen^^
Could you take a look in your serverlog and say if this happened to you, too?

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

Sure, i will pour over it tomorrow.

 

i have noticed in from your last post, that the server does seem to freeze and lockup after changing the day and night manually and also in relation to the weather too..

just saying, i dont have any logs right now as ive been working remotely from my laptop... (cant access my server)

 

couldn't reproduce the issue and wanted to actually _play_ minecraft some time so I loaded the newest version on our server and logged in

>> I DIDN'T UPLOAD THE NEW VERSION <<

before uploading I forgot to delete some testing code and ended up with this

well ... I thought of playing around with lavalamps in a later version but ... I don't think this will ever happen

 

cant you set lava to be stationary (other blockid?)

 

I have the Electric Fence Plugin will this conflict with it?
By the way this looks like a very neat plugin!

 

not right now^^ that one was an accident

I do not know this plugin. But before I deal with conflicting plugins I have to fix everything concerning my plugin itself.

 

I have an issue where after a server restart none of the pendants or streetlights work. They are just glass. Is this normal?

Wasn't sure if I was missing write perms on a file or something.

Thanks for the help, great plugin!

 

If you have access to the pluginfolder you could check the file lamps.yml in the StreetLamps pluginfolder.
If you have access to the log take a look. On Serverstart there should be an entry how many lamps of which type are loaded.

That's a log of the version I am testing at the moment. But yours should look like this if there were any saved lamps.
I should add a log entry on disable, too.

 

Odd... here is my console log...

Code:

2011-07-08 14:11:23 [INFO] [StreetLamps] tool: 76 (DataValue)
2011-07-08 14:11:23 [INFO] [StreetLamps] power enabled

2011-07-08 14:11:23 [INFO] StreetLamps 0.4.4 is enabled

I see no trace of saved pendants in that log and I confirmed that they are just glass again.

Here are the plugins I am running if it helps.
DropBonus
Runecraft 2.7
Quantum Connectors
Permissions
MyHome
General
Dynmap
Blocks on Glass
Craftipedia

Let me know what I should try next.

Thanks!

 

nah, ... i don't know. This looks like the lamps were not saved. At the moment I just display how many lamps were loaded. I'll add an entry of how many lamps could not be loaded/got destroid while the plugin was not enabled.

*edit* could you take a look at the log again, when it disabled the plugins / stopped the server?

 

There is nothing in the log regarding stopping anything.
