Ace of Spades: Build Only

ei8htx · June 23, 2015, 1:33am

Yes, using /unshare. However, the person must be logged on at that time.

Alternatively, you can /unclaim your sector, which wipes it for everyone, including you. Then immediately /claim the sector again, so that only you will be on it.

Just a reminder (it was on page 2 of this thread):

ei8htx post:12:

More info about claiming sectors copied from BuildCon:

From the server status page you can see what sectors are claimed, and who currently in the server has permission to build where. Put your cursor over the coordinates and it’ll tell you who owns that sector.

Now, in order to claim a sector, you must login. Anyone with a forum account can build: it’s done automatically when you registered on our forums here on Aloha.pk. If you haven’t registered yet, do so now! There’s no need to apply for trusted or anything like that. Just having a forum account is all you need. When on the server, you simply use:

/login forumname password
or
/login “my forum name” password

Where forumname is the exact spelling of your forum name here, and your password is the same as well (you can change your in-game password to be different from your forum password under profile > modify profile if you’d like). If your name has spaces in it, just wrap it in “quotation marks”. Example: /login “o hai there” mypass

Once logged in, you’ll have access to the following commands:

/claim
This allows you to claim a sector as your own, if it hasn’t been claimed by someone already. You can only claim ONE sector at a time.

/unclaim
This removes your claim. You’ll no longer be able to build on your sector, but you can claim another one. Anyone you shared this sector with will also no longer be able to build on it (although anyone can claim it now).

/share PLAYER
Use this command to share your sector with anyone you’d like currently on the server. They must be logged in, however, to be able to build on your sector. Replace PLAYER with the name of the player you’d like to share with, or just use their # as listed by pressing tab in game. Example: /share ei8htx, or /share #5. Obviously, you must have already claimed a sector to share one.

/unshare PLAYER
Use this to unshare a sector with someone. The player must currently be online on the server. If they’re not online, a work around would be to quickly /unclaim your sector, and then reclaim it. This would make you the only owner, and all persons who were shared before will have lost their privileges.

/sector
This command tells you the coordinates of the sector you’re in, and who currently owns it, as well as anyone else the sector is shared with.

/findsector
Tells you all the sectors currently unclaimed.

colorpinpoint · July 27, 2015, 2:43pm

You can use this tool to find out who owns the sector http://west.aloha.pk:52886/ then message them on the forum to see if they can share the sector with you.

Catalina · July 27, 2015, 6:09pm

What happend to the server?, i can’t enter

BorealBlizzard · September 29, 2016, 8:46pm

Right now all of the sectors are taken so I’m looking to find someone willing to let me build with them.

Gori · January 9, 2017, 8:34pm

Aloha. Gori here.
I would like to own a sector. Most of them seem abandoned.

Gori · January 23, 2017, 5:04am

Hello. Me again.
Today some of the build commands stopped working.

specific commands

/wall
/dw
/floor
/df
/box
/db
And the /qb related ones

Help please.

Feel free to visit A7.

Hello, I would like to build on this server. Can someone help me to claim a sector ?:C

STEVE · February 2, 2017, 4:06am

Just a quick follow up the request for a sysadmin to reset the “Build-Only” server.

Basic build commands stopped working on there about a week ago…

If anybody gets a chance to just give it quick reset, that would be great!!

Thanks a lot!
STEVE

Hi. Gori here. (o.o)/

First:

I just wanted to remember the build commands still dead.

dead commands

Hello. Me again. :) Today some of the build commands stopped working. [details=specific commands]

/wall

/dw

/floor

/df

/box

/db

And the /qb related ones

[/details]
Help please.

Feel free to visit A7.

Second:

I was wondering if i could have a sector change to one of the map corners. (A1, would be great)
I am planning to do a 15x15x15 (3375) cells (3x3x3 each) 3D maze that would occupate a whole sector. (A 61x61x61 cube actually)

reasons and tecnical details

Since the sides of each map sector are 64 (even) and the sides of the maze will be 61 (odd), is not possible to center the build. (Im planning to leave one block of spacing between the maze and the map borders, and two between the maze and the rest of the map)
Since the only two doors will be on opposite corners of the lower level but on adjacent faces, the other two faces of the cube don't need to be really accessible.
A1 seems to be the less valuable of the four.

The maze was generated by a program i wrote, to avoid passages going vertically twice in a row. (So players can simply jump from one floor to another without the need to use /fly)
The algorithm used was "growing tree (75 newest/25 random)".
I am attaching a sample of what the program output looks like. (Not the one going to be built)

I have alredy cleaned my sector (minigames, puzzles, machines and prototypes) and im ready to /unclaim it. (I keep it claimed for now just in case)

I was going to post this yesterday but i went to sleep for personal reasons (not because i´m weak like you and i need to sleep), sorry if you were dissapointed while visiting an empty A7.

MuffinTastic · February 4, 2017, 1:44am

server’s been restarted, they should work now

Ace · June 11, 2017, 5:59pm

Basicly tried to claim every possible Area in the map and they already have a owner

Danat · August 22, 2017, 6:33am

so all the map is owned?
too bad, i really wanted to play on this and build my castle.
i’ll be waiting for them to add new areas to own one and build on it.

Kuunikal · August 22, 2017, 12:43pm

Hey Danat,

I’ll gladly share my plot with you. Just PM me when you are available to play and I’ll give you permissions.

pinkemo6 · June 16, 2018, 5:26pm

I am trying to login in in the serve but it says my password is invalid when i know its not. i have even copy and pasted my known password into the chat and it still won’t work. what do i do? ??? ???

pinkemo6 · June 16, 2018, 9:56pm

oh nvm it works, just without the <>'s

pinkemo6 · June 16, 2018, 10:16pm

Okay now i need a sector freed up. please notify me when one frees up. also you should make multiple build only servers, i know theres 64 sectors but i mean they are all taken so why not just make more servers so everyone who wants a sector can get one without having to erase other sectors

SpyKaps · June 17, 2018, 6:34am

Easiest way to get yourself a plot is to ping a staff member on discord when youve got time.

Edit:It looks like you already got yourself a plot but generally discord is the easiest way to ask for something in case you ever need to do so.
