A server is an online world that allows multiple players and devices to play together. Unlike other forms of multiplayer, all players can freely connect, reconnect, and disconnect. A local network game is similar to a local server in that it could be used as a server if set up correctly.

A link to a server can be shown in the following format:

  • blockheads://(server domain or IP):(port)
  • http://theblockheads.net/join/(server domain or IP):(port)

Nicknames[править | править код]

Nicknames are names used to identify your account. An unlimited number of nicknames may be created by a device on a server, but only one can be running actions from a device at any given time. When creating a nickname, the nickname chosen cannot have been banned or have been previously used. A nickname can only be logged in to from the same device it was created with, or another device sharing the same iCloud, Game Center, Google Play, or Amazon Game Circle account. A nickname cannot be logged in to from multiple devices at the same time.

Blockheads and their items are tied to an an account. Blockheads cannot be moved or transferred.

Shops can only be stocked, price set, profit collected, and removed by the player who placed it.

Safes, display cabinets, portal chests, iron doors, and iron trapdoors cannot be used, accessed, or removed by other players.

Chests, shelves, crafting surfaces, portals, steam locomotives, rail handcars, wooden beds, soft beds, golden beds can be used by other players, but not removed.

Server Hosting[править | править код]

Mac Server App[править | править код]

The Mac Server App is free and allows worlds to be hosted. It can be connected to using Local Network, or, if set up correctly, by anyone, using port forwarding to forward the correct port to a Mac. Mac servers can have up to 32 players connected at once. It requires Mac OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion or higher to run.

Creating a Server[править | править код]

  1. Download the server app here
  2. Open the app and click "New"
  3. Enter name of server
  4. Click "Start"

Server Interface[править | править код]

A chat log and a "send message" box are located on the right hand side. A player log, with IPs and nicknames is in the middle. Banning, kicking, and whitelisting can both be done from the chat box and the interface. Other server commands can be used through the chat box.

Admins[править | править код]

Admins can use all commands in the chat. They may also pass through others' iron doors and iron trapdoors, and use and pick up all items, even those not owned by them. (crafting surfaces, beds, chests, safes, shelves, etc.)

Server Commands[править | править код]

Server commands are done through the chat. All commands are case-insensitive, for both the command itself and its input. Commands are not shown to the public, nor are their responses. An invalid command is not shown to the public, and gives no response, doing nothing.

Command Powers required Description
/HELP Mod/admin Displays the in-game list of commands. For mods, displays only commands mods can use. For admins, displays all commands.
/PLAYERS Mod/admin Lists all players on the server who aren't away or offline. The list is presented in this manner:

(player name) | (IP address) | (unique device identifier)

/STOP Admin only Turns off the server. If on BlockServer, instead restarts the server.
/KICK player_name Mod/admin Disconnects that player from the server. They can still reconnect.
/BAN player_name_or_ip Mod/admin Disconnects that player/IP from the server, and prevents anyone using that nickname, device, or IP from reconnecting.
/BAN-NO-DEVICE player_name_or_ip Mod/admin Disconnects that player/IP from the server, and prevents anyone using that same nickname/IP from reconnecting.
/UNBAN player_name_or_ip Mod/admin Removes player/IP from the blacklist, and allows them to reconnect. The identifier that was banned must be unbanned.
/WHITELIST player_name_or_ip Mod/admin Adds player/IP to the whitelist. If there was no whitelist previously, everyone else is disconnected.
/UNWHITELIST player_name_or_ip Mod/admin Disconnects that player/IP from the server, and removes them from the whitelist. The identifier that was whitelisted must be unwhitelisted.
/LOAD-LISTS Admin only Checks the whitelist, blacklist, modlist, and adminlist files for pending changes, and applies them.
/MOD player_name Admin only Gives that player moderator powers. If not previously whitelisted on a whitelisted server, whitelists them.
/UNMOD player_name Admin only Revokes that player's moderator powers. If not seperately whitelisted on a whitelisted server, unwhitelists them.
/ADMIN player_name Admin only Gives that player admin powers. If not previously whitelisted on a whitelisted server, whitelists them.
/UNADMIN player_name Admin only Revokes that player's admin powers. If not seperately whitelisted on a whitelisted server, unwhitelists them.
/RESET-OWNER player_name Admin only The next player to log in with that player's name takes ownership of their blockheads, items, and name. Does not reset blacklist status, whitelist status, mod status, or admin status.
/CLEAR-BLACKLIST Admin only Removes all names from the blacklist.
/CLEAR-WHITELIST Admin only Removes all names from the whitelist.
/CLEAR-MODLIST Admin only Revokes all moderator powers.
/CLEAR-ADMINLIST Admin only Revokes all admin powers.

BlockServer adds additional commands that all players can use. As only mods/admins have these "invalid" commands hidden, they are publicly visible when attempted by any other player.

Command Description
/BSOP message Sends a support request to BlockServer.
/OP message Sends an email to contact emails set in that world's world manager, if enabled.
