So RTB 3.2 is out and you can grab this off the auto-updater when you start up Blockland. Here’s the list of changes:
Changes:

- Changed RTB to be permanently enabled and un-disableable
- IRC mode change lag now fixed
- Commenting event added to user's activity stream
- Server control keybind now checks whether server has rtb etc.c
- Tweaks to Server Auth to post mods in a new way
- Added changes to joinservergui to be compatible for v13
- Added new default add-ons from v13
- RTBSA_Post now gives warnings if it is unable to post server

Additions:

- Server Information
- Content-Only Add-On Downloading (part of server information)

Other Stuff:

- RTB Web API now runs faster/uses less memory (speeds up mod manager)

I’m glad to say the release went smoothly and everyone is now enjoying the bug-free RTB 3.2. Comments that suggest otherwise will be deleted.

What’s New?

Saturday, September 5th, 2009

So, you may have noticed that it’s “just the Mod Manager” that is changed. I also forgot to mention the GUI Downloader which is now working. Anyway, a lot of the development time was spent updating the online Downloads System. I think it’ll take some time before you really appreciate just how much easier the new Mod Manager is to use, it’s faster and more sleek and actually works.

Apart from this, most of the core RTB code has been redone and optimized to work much better. This allows me to push out future updates much faster. The server backend of RTB has also been redone to allow for more scaleability and it uses much less of our server resources which is always a bonus.

On the topic of RTB4, you can expect this much sooner and faster than RTB3 took - I’ll have more information on the development of this system later on. Anyway, try out the new RTB and see how you like it.

RTB3

Saturday, September 5th, 2009

RTB3 is finally available. It features a totally overhauled Mod Manager. Instead of me explaining the new features to you it’d be best for you to just go ahead and download it! You can grab it either by starting up Blockland or via the Downloads page of this site.

Enjoy!
