How do you make your server sandbox mode for infiniminers?

Answer 1

This may work,and then again,it may not.But to get a sandbox server on Infiniminer,you must (if haven't done so yet) go to the infiniminer homepage (infiniminer.tk),click on 'Get Infiniminer',and download the software named 'Infiniminer Game,and server software.'To do this,click on the box with that name. When a box pops up,click 'Run'.The Infiniminer game and server configuration folder should start downloading.You are all set to play.

For better results with your Infiniminer game,you should do what I did.

Go to the second little box on the 'Get Infiniminer' page,which should be named 'XNA framework patch(necessary!).' You then click on that box,and when a box pops up with the word 'Run',click 'Run'.

Now for the hard part.If you want to make a server and be able to play offline,you first have to click the Start button.Then go to 'All Programs',and scroll down until you see a folder called 'Zachtronics Industries'.Click on that and then click the word 'Infiniminer'.If a list of options shows up,click on 'Edit Server Configuration'.If you don't have the XNA folder,then a folder should pop up on the first page of the start button called 'Edit Server Configuration'.Click on that and there should be an option called 'server.config'.Click on that.

Once done with that,a window should pop up with a bunch of words.That is the 'Notepad' folder.To get your server public,scroll down until you see a paragraph with the word 'public= false' at the end.Click on false and backspace it,leaving the spaces in the middle of each word.Once you do that,put after 'public = ', put 'public = true',but don't put it all,just put 'true'(note that this will NOT make your server public to everyone,only you).

Ok.So now that you have your server public,keep that configuration window open and find a paragraph that has 'sandbox = false',and put 'sandbox = true'.

Note that this will only work sometimes.It will not work all the time.If successful though,the game will be unwinnable and all blocks will be free.

Keep the notepad window with your server stuff open at ALL TIMES while playing on your server.

Now open your 'Infiniminer Server' folder,and keep that folder open at all times too.

Open your 'Infiniminer Client' folder now,which is the folder with the game.Once at the home page with the servers listed,you should see a server named 'lanserver'.That is your server.If your server doesn't look like this at the end(-sandbox),then your server does not have sandbox mode on.If it does have that at the end then you do have sandbox mode on.

If successful with all of this, happy mining ('U')
