You sure you followed it right?
You need to first type "cd /Applications/ThinkTanks" or something like that, and that has to be the name of your THINKTANKS FOLDER (The folder in which the application is located.
@ cerebellum
Tell me a little bit more of what your trying to do. Server type and game type. Server password protected or not. Stuff like that. I'll get you going.
OK?

If it says no file or directory, then it merely means it can't FIND thinktanks. If you have thinktanks in say... /Applications/Games/Thinktanks/Thinktanks.app/ you would have to type "cd /Applications/Games/Thinktanks/Thinktanks.app/contents/macos/" then execute via "./thinktanks OSX" and the rest of the startup options. (remember, the clickable application is really a package, which the GUI treats as a launchable application, but the UNIX command line--Terminal that is---treats it like a folder. You won't be able to execute a directory! Also, the clickable application has the.app extension which finder hides by default--Unless the app was made by Microsoft, then it's not a package at all... They're security freaks about source code :P).
So to execute it I would type
Cd /Applications/Games/Thinktanks/Thinktanks.app/contents/macos/
./ThinkTanks OSX -dedicated -mission 'game/data/missions/ [Mis number, for example TT1_1.mis] -Game [Gametype S for scrum, TS for team scrum, B for BM, and TB for Team BM]
A useful command for finding your way around is "ls" which lists the contents of a directory--exactly as terminal sees it. So if you ls the applications folder, you'll see all the hidden extensions.
Hope this helps

Hey,
Umm I think I did something wrong but I'm not sure what. My thinktanks is located in a folder on my desktop/games/TT/ThinkTanks.
Then I put this in the terminal and well you can see what happened. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks for the help

My Terminal is looking this:

When I press enter it says 'no such file or directory'
Finnish: games = pelit
Thinktanks.app means you're making a path to the application. You need to make a path to the folder it's in.
Try this:
1) Open Terminal & type cd "space"
2) If TT is in your Dock, option click it and "Show In Finder"
3) In the finder's "View" option choose "columns". You'll be ble to see the folder it's in.
4) Drag the folder (not the application) to Terminal and it will make a path.
5) hit return
6) Type "space"
7) Paste in your mission
Something like:
./ThinkTanks.app/Contents/MacOS/ThinkTanks OSX -dedicated -mission game/data/missions/TT1_4.mis -Game S
Here's what one of mine looks like. It's in a folder called "ThinkTanks League"

[Remote01s-Computer:/Applications/ThinkTanks League] remote01%./ThinkTanks.app/Contents/MacOS/ThinkTanks OSX -dedicated -mission game/data/missions/TT1_4.mis -Game S
So... :o I did what you said and 'command not found' :

You don't have to let go of one rope before grabbing the other. But you'll have to let go of one if you want to swing forward.
Who have mac and got it to work?

Hey cerebellum,
You can do it all on one line:
/Applications/Pelit/ThinkTanks.app/Contents/MacOS/ThinkTanks OSX -dedicated -mission all -game ts
-Rx
-Rx
It says too many arguments. :o
You have a lot of codes running. They might be conflicting with each other. Try disabling one or two and see if it can load without them.
The area at the bottom is telling you where to look.

When I go to open up TT nothing happens and it if I crtl click on it it says quit under one of the options. So I can't get in and if I say quit and then go in my server isn't there.
Whats going on? Do I have to many scriptss running or something?
Thanks for the help

I'll bet if you remove the observer script it will work. Does it always say

game/server/scripts/observer.cs (1): Unable to find object: 'moveMap' attempting to call function 'bind'
Is this a mod renamed TT1_5.mis? I could try and run this tonight and compare the differences.
Let me know!
Napalm
Ok I removed the observer script and it stopped doing the bind thing. Yes the mods is set as TT1_5.mis because I never knew how to do ded. Servers so I set it as that so it would show up after freudian flats in the create server screen.

You need to make a copy of ThinkTanks. The one you're using to launch a dedicated server will freeze up. It's running the server. Just let that and terminal run, then fire up the copy of TT and use that to join the game.
Awesome your right. Wow finally thank you so much from the help all. It worked
XD

That's why they call it a community. Glad it's working.

KBC you mean trying without dash's codes? :o

Heeelp :(
^sorry. Walking out the door for more Holiday Festivities. I'll try to look at it tommorow.
Olin tekemässä muita asioita, kun yhtäkkiä keksin miten ongelman voi ratkaista. Siis siten että voit käyttää uusia terrejä ilman dedicatedii. Luulisin että siihen sä tätä dedicatedii tartteet vai mitä? Mutta kannattaa silti yrittää saada dedicatedi toimimaan. Niin sitten voit pitää oman serverisi auki ilman, että itse olet siellä.
You don't have to let go of one rope before grabbing the other. But you'll have to let go of one if you want to swing forward.
Triv kerro miten se menee? Is that bad thing if we talk little finnish if KBC helps tomorrow? :P
Okey, it goes like this. Oletetaan, että sinulla on jo valmiiksi.mis ja.ter tiedosto. Nimeät.mis tiedoston TT1_5.mis, jolloin se ilmestyy create menuun lush nelosen jälkeen. Sitten laitat sen käyntiin ihan normaalisti create menusta, eikä sitä tyhmää virhe ilmoitusta ilmesty. Ja älä sitten pelästy, kun siinä TT1_5 tulee olemaan musta ruutu. Siihen voi tehdy itse kuvan jos haluaa, mutta mikään pakko ei tietysti ole. Ajattelin, että toikin on ihan hyvä mainita. Itse olen tehnyt yhden kuvan. :)

Finnish!? I didn't realize you were using a different language on your computer. DOH! Suddenly cd /Applications/Pelit makes sense. Pelit is Finnish for game right? Is your computer set up in Finnish or English?
Try this:
1) Show contents of ThinkTanks. Does it look like this?
Changing the directory seems to be working fine.

You need to change some of the lines below, but I'm not sure to what.
./ThinkTanks.app/Contents/MacOS/ThinkTanks OSX -dedicated -mission game/data/missions/TT1_4.mis -Game S
I think it needs to look like the line above with a backslash after ThinkTanks. I had to paste a picture because these forums take the backslash out.
