    New script manager update has been released

    Version 3.12:
    Use https for all requests
    Online view loads async and won't hang forever when the server is down
    Add FILTER button to Online view. You can provide a list of search terms to search script name, descriptions, and authors
    Fix rare failure on startup if downloaded scripts list is corrupted

    This update will be REQUIRED within the next few weeks, because starcatcher.us's ISP blocks insecure requests. I have a temporary measure in place right now to allow script manager to work, but in the future this will be blocked.

    Here is an example of the FILTER button, with the term "jacob1" input:
    image

    Searches are case-insensitive. You can type in multiple words, only scripts matching all search terms will be shown.

    Script manager 3.12+ is now REQUIRED to use the script server. Older versions are no longer able to open the online scripts list, and will instead hang, possibly forever. Older versions use insecure http, which is now blocked from starcatcher.us due to issues with our ISP.

    If you are unable to open the online list, then reinstall script manager via the instructions in the first post
    tpt.getscript(1, "autorun.lua", 1)

    TPT-Ultimata is stuck on 3.11, and has no ability to update the script manager in game. Loading 3.12 in autorun.lua will not fix this issue, meaning you are stuck with a broken script manager forever. Users of this mod are recommended to switch back to vanilla TPT to download scripts.

    A new script manager update is available, mostly to fix compat with upcoming versions of TPT. In those versions, anything that shows a dialog box would throw an error. Also, in the upcoming emscripten version of TPT, this fixes downloading an updating scripts.

    Version 3.13:
    Support upcoming versions of TPT (use new dialog box api)
    Script downloads and updates are now async, and don't freeze the game as they download
    Settings are now stored separately per scripts directory. Acts as a sort of profile for your script list and settings
    Fix rare failure on startup due to corrupted setting

    As a reminder, if you are on script manager 3.11 or older, you'll have to re-install it using the steps in the first post. That version has no ability to contact the server.

    A minor script manager update has been released

    Version 3.14:
    Fix extra newlines being inserted into scripts on Windows

    This bug has existed for some people for a long time. It doesn't affect how scripts run, but is an annoyance when trying to get accurate line numbers.

     How do I uninstall it afterwards? I don't know how to mod and I got this script from some subframe tutorial.

    To uninstall it, open the data folder and delete autorun.lua

    You can get to the data folder with the button at the bottom of settings.

    Or you can type this in the console, then restart the game: fs.removeFile("autorun.lua")

    Hey everyone! First of all thanks everyone for keeping this gem going I've been playing tpt since it's inception. And a special thank you to those of you that helped Port this over to Android. My question is has anybody here kept an updated link to an updated zip or package file containing all of the scripts updated like all the mod scripts that everybody makes there's like 200 and something right now if not I would be willing to set that up and keep it as a permanent g-drive or on my GitHub for people for the rest of my life, I'll even put it in my will LOL. If there isn't already someone maintaining a complete package updated regularly. Let me know plz and thanks
