There, I pushed the loadable pieces work I've been doing.
https://github.com/cuberite/cuberite/pull/2255

So far, the loader is not connected to anything except for the self test. I'd like someone to review the code, and after we merge it I'll move some of the generators over to the new platform. Most likely villages.

Do we have a procedure for obsoleting API methods? because I've got a few methods where I've changed the underling method, then put a hsim in manual bindings to prevent breaking plugins. Is there any way to obsolete those shims?

[xoft]

Usually those shims should log a warning to the console, along with the Lua stack trace, we keep them in for some time, a few months, and then remove them.

Yesterday I returned from a 4-day school trip to Barcelona.
The last day we went into portaventura and I got into Dragon-Khan and Shambhala (the tallest rollercoaster in Europe)
If you someday come to spain, go there, its awesome.

The bad thing of this is that im out of lua challenge, but I dint have any posibilities.

You've still got a day and a half, you can make it.

Can proto proxy be used for a vanilla server?

[xoft]

Yes, of course, that is the primary function. However, you need to disable online mode for it, because ProtoProxy effectively does man-in-the-middle attack on the protocol and online mode defeats that.

Also remember that ProtoProxy hasn't been updated for 1.8 yet.

Quick Question: Is there a way for me to register n number of blocks to be ticked after a delay within a plugin?

[xoft]

No, the blocks are ticked in random, but I think it might be possible to at least schedule one particular block per tick per chunk, using cWorld:SetNextBlockTick().
