<![CDATA[Private server appears to be paused]]>I've launched a private server through the Screeps interface in Steam and connected to the local host.

No game ticks are occurring on my local server; i.e., I can start the server, connect to it with the client, and place a Spawn, but nothing happens; my scripts are not run, my Safe Mode timer does not decrement.

So I paused my Anti-Virus and the Safe Mode timer is now decrementing but nothing else has changed. This time I lauched screeps as an Administrator and again launched the server through the Screeps interface in Steam but it's still the same.

I've added a simple scripts to just run a console message but nothing appears. And then I installed the TooAngel bot just to make sure I wasn't going mad. Added the TooAngel bot to a room, Low and behold TooAngel just sits there also.....

Any ideas???

Downloaded @screeps/simplebot from the workshop and that has now appeared in the folder after adding it to the server mod list. Expected this to already be a part of screeps. I've included the updated log below

]]>http://screeps.com/forum/post/15489http://screeps.com/forum/post/15489Invalid Date<![CDATA[Reply to Private server appears to be paused on Invalid Date]]>@o4kapuk No. I just have the below files located in "Screeps\server\logs"

  • backend.log

  • engine_main.log

  • engine_processor1.log

  • engine_processor2.log

  • storage.log

]]>http://screeps.com/forum/post/15491http://screeps.com/forum/post/15491Invalid Date<![CDATA[Reply to Private server appears to be paused on Invalid Date]]>@avp2501 please try to check the integrity of game files and try again. (Right-click on the game, properties, 'local files' tab, 'verify integrity of game files' button) If that won't help, please provide some details about your environment (OS kind and version, hardware specs, configuration specialty maybe?)

]]>http://screeps.com/forum/post/15499http://screeps.com/forum/post/15499Invalid Date<![CDATA[Reply to Private server appears to be paused on Invalid Date]]>Ran the "verify integrity of game files" and all files are present.

]]>http://screeps.com/forum/post/15516http://screeps.com/forum/post/15516Invalid Date<![CDATA[Reply to Private server appears to be paused on Invalid Date]]>@avp2501 it should be fixed in the latest update (server version 4.1.8)
