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.

==Nicknames==
Nicknames are names used to identify an 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. Nicknames are required to be unique in a world on Mac servers and unique in all cloud servers on the cloud. On Mac servers, nicknames 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. On cloud servers, nicknames can only be logged into from a device sharing the support ID found at the bottom of the Help/Credits screen of the [[Pause Menu|pause menu]]. A nickname cannot be logged in to from multiple devices at the same time.
[[Blockhead]]s and their [[item]]s are tied to an an account. Blockheads cannot be moved or transferred between nicknames.
[[Shop]]s can only be stocked, have the price set, have the profit collected, and removed by the player who placed it.
[[Safe]]s, [[Display Cabinet|display cabinets]], and [[Portal Chest|portal chests]] cannot accessed or removed by other players. [[Iron Door|Iron doors]] and [[Iron Trapdoor|iron trapdoors]] cannot be passed through by other players, although they may be mined through if an [[Ownership Sign|ownership sign]] is not present.
[[Sign]]s, [[painting]]s, and [[column]]s cannot be removed by other players.
[[Chest]]s, [[Shelf|shelves]], [[ladder]]s, [[stairs]], [[Crafting Surface|crafting surfaces]], [[portal]]s, [[Trade Portal|trade portals]], [[Steam Locomotive|steam locomotives]], [[Rail Handcar|rail handcars]], [[Elevator Shaft|elevator shafts]], [[Electric Elevator Motor|electric elevator motors]], [[Wooden Bed|wooden beds]], [[Soft Bed|soft beds]], and [[Golden Bed|golden beds]] can be used by other players, but not removed.
In addition, each of the items above cannot be picked up if it doesn't belong to a player, except for direct player-to-player item exchanges.
However, Admins are able to remove, use, and modify anything a player has placed.

Parts of this article are outdated, and need to be updated. 
You can help The Blockheads Wiki editing it to reflect a recent update.
Server connection screen

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. Starting in version 1.5, servers may also be 4x or 16x larger.

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

  • blockheads://(server domain or IP):(port)
  • http://theblockheads.net/join/(server domain or IP):(port)
  • http://theblockheads.net/join.php?id=(cloud world ID)&name=(world name; URL-encoded)

Nicknames

Nicknames are names used to identify an 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. Nicknames are required to be unique in a world on Mac servers and unique in all cloud servers on the cloud. On Mac servers, nicknames 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. On cloud servers, nicknames can only be logged into from a device sharing the support ID found at the bottom of the Help/Credits screen of the pause menu. 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 between nicknames.

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

Safes, display cabinets, and portal chests cannot accessed or removed by other players. Iron doors and iron trapdoors cannot be passed through by other players, although they may be mined through if an ownership sign is not present.

Signs, paintings, and columns cannot be removed by other players.

Chests, shelves, ladders, stairs, crafting surfaces, portals, trade portals, steam locomotives, rail handcars, elevator shafts, electric elevator motors, wooden beds, soft beds, and golden beds can be used by other players, but not removed.

In addition, each of the items above cannot be picked up if it doesn't belong to a player, except for direct player-to-player item exchanges.

However, Admins are able to remove, use, and modify anything a player has placed.

Server Hosting

Cloud Server

Added in version 1.5.1, cloud servers can be created with the app. In-app purchases are used to add credit. World Credit is added by the owner upon creation of the world, while additional time can be bought with money by any player using the World Credit option in a portal or by adding credit in the Pause Menu. They can be managed online using the owner portal.

Creating a Server

  1. Scroll to "CREATE WORLD"
  2. Tap "ONLINE", then "CREATE WORLD..."
  3. Enter name, size, and nickname/avatar, then tap "CREATE WORLD..."
  4. Choose world difficulty (normal or expert mdoe), then tap "CREATE WORLD..."
  5. Choose world type (survival or custom rules), then tap "CREATE WORLD..."
  6. Choose privacy settings, initial world credit, then tap "CREATE WORLD..."
  7. Agree to conditions by tapping "OK"

Mac Server App

Mac Server App

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

  1. Download the server app from the Mac App Store
  2. Open the app and click "New"
  3. Enter name of server
  4. Click "Start"

Server Interface

A chat log and a chat box are located on the right hand side. A player log with player nicknames and IPs 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.

Linux Server

The Linux Server 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 Linux device. Linux servers can have up to 32 players connected at once.

BlockServer

BlockServer home page (November 2013)
BlockServer's list of servers (November 2013)

Server hosting using BlockServer cost $0.20 USD per world per day. Each world had a public world page located at http://blockserver.net/world/ followed by the world's name. BlockServer servers could have up to 16 players connected at once. BlockServer backed up servers every day, storing a backup for two months. On June 12, 2014, BlockServer closed, and new worlds could no longer be created and new credit could no longer be added. Credit can be transferred to the game or refunded. Worlds would remain on BlockServer until credit has been exhausted, and could be transferred to the cloud system at any time.

The BlockServer website now redirects to The Blockheads website. Functionality similar to that of BlockServer has been implemented through the owner portal interface.

Powers

Mods

Mods may also ban players who have placed certain crafting surfaces. There is also the added kick and ban options when clicking on a player's icon.


Mods can use the following commands in the chat:

  • /HELP
  • /PLAYERS
  • /KICK
  • /BAN
  • /BAN-NO-DEVICE
  • /UNBAN
  • /WHITELIST
  • /UNWHITELIST
  • /LIST-BLACKLIST

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.)

Owners

Owners have the same powers as admins, with the additional ability of being able to set passwords and change privacy settings. Owners are by default set to the creator of a cloud server.

Owners of Mac Servers can be set using the /SET-OWNER command.

Super Mods

Super Mods are identified by a red background.

Super Mods have absolute power on all cloud server worlds on The Blockheads. Super Mods are part of The Blockheads Team and have the ability to set or remove owners of a cloud server and do various tasks that only Super Mods can do.
