Yeah, that was me looking for mention of them here.
I haven't seen them in game, but the signs they leave use the -- bit; I didn't know if their username did, but the beehive message I replied to didn't have them.
But if patch caught them wrecking my obsidian roof, it's probably is the same person.
btw, not sure how much you care, but in case you do find it useful knowledge...
Java has String.contains("substring") and String.equals("fullstring") along with a whole bunch of others (like indexof/startswith/endswith/etc).
The language itself doesn't do any string parsing for comments/variables - strings are immutable; you have to concatenate every time you want to change/insert anything.
Of course, this doesn't tell us anything about how Bukkit or any plugin does stuff (e.g. whether it uses a compact SQL db or whatever), but I felt like writing it so meh.
he was on this morning and says someone is wrecking his stuff
It's not his stuff - he keeps putting up signs on my castle, the latest one saying "owned by assassinmaster-00" (forgot to take a screenshot, but no "--" this time, and the "-" there may have been a line continuation thing), and then changing various bits of it.
It's not a complex castle - he could easily go and re-create his own one somewhere else, along with the differences he wants on his version.
Yeah, I've put an appropriate sign up now saying I built it, and I do think it's fair for Rich to have a word before we do anything.
(I posted the initial message to him, so assuming he's not ignoring the thread he should see it when he's next on.)
Good job 1.8 isn't out yet, because that will have randomly generated buildings, which would probably confuse things.
The "Minecraft" + "Teh Mine" ones are the two "big" ones though - and yes, together they do beat your dad's cracked ball, without needing any help from the others.
