Small Bricks Extension 0.5x
by Conan and Jam Jar

Pack of 30 bricks that work in conjunction with Brick_SmallBricks by Kris. This includes centered 0.5x bricks, adapters so they can be built alongside normal 0.5x bricks and, negative space fillers for each of the centered bricks.
The negatives are all water bricks so they can overlap with the corresponding brick.

More to follow for 0.25x and 0.75x.





In-game example of the bricks being used together.
White is centered, red is negative, blue is existing small bricks.

General Discussion / Blockland Confederations Cup 2017 - [RAW STATS RELEASED]

« on: July 02, 2017, 09:34:26 PM »

Welcome to the 2017 Confederations Cup, hosted by the GBFL.


Ladies and Blockheads, welcome to yet another year of the Blockland football Summer season! We're again back since last years Euro Cup event, and are excited to bring everyone even more tense 5v5 matches in our GBFL stadium, this time hosted in Russia. Alongside this, we've got our brand new team building system to introduce! We hope that this will help introduce new players into the mix and lower the barrier for entry for more and more people to join the GBFL.

Further details will be revealed during the signup process. By using the navigation buttons above you can find out more information about the upcoming season, news, staff, sign-ups and much more.

We hope you are all looking forward to this year as much as we are. Join us on GBFL's CONFED CUP 2017 server to practice and play. Goodluck to everyone involved and may the best team win!


The GBFL is run by a collective of commissioners who diplomatically vote on key decisions. This can range from rule changes to player punishments. Every member has equal weight and ownership in all choices and can be approached by any member of the public if an issue arises. Commissioners are still able to participate and play in official GBFL cups. Rules surrounding this topic are further outlined in the RULES & GUIDELINES section.
Underneath you can find contact details for each commissioner.

News and updates posted by GBFL staff members and streamers will be posted here. Underneath is an archive of all updates/news posts. Official Teams, Player Ranks, & Schedule Announced! 12th July 2017 Team Building System & Help Wanted! 4th July 2017 Confederations Cup Announced! 1st July 2017 Current images from Custom Cup 2015 & Euro Cup 2016.

We have some exciting new improvements to announce for this year's cup! We have taken feedback from players and have worked together with Eagle517 to create a custom selective ghosting script that should help with players with lower performance computers AND latency. During matches, the players on the pitch can selectively ghost only the stadium/pitch, officials and referees, and players on each team. After lots of testing, we have high hopes this will greatly improve performance for everyone and subsequently the quality of matches!

This isn't the only script we've had made for us either! Referees have also been given new tools at their disposal to help make better calls. They are now able to see a "Last touch" history of the ball, displaying the player's name, their team colour, and the previous 3 touches by other players. We hope that with this we can have clearer definitive calls on which team or player should be awarded the ball in different scenarios.



But we haven't stopped at making improvements on just the pitch! After reviewing how teams have aligned over the past 3 seasons, we have made a decision to try and help balance the teams to have a more competitive cup this year. Captains will no longer sign up with a full roster listed; instead, players and captains will sign up independent of each other. After this step, the captains will use our brand new team building tool to construct balanced teams based on a player pool of all the players that have signed up. We hope this will not only help with more balanced games but also lower the barrier for entry for new players to the GBFL.

This season is to be split into 2 sections, similar to last year. The section A is a cycle of preliminary rounds where each team plays against each other to accumulate points. These points are added to the standings and determine who makes it to the section B. This section is organised as a bracket determined by the teams points accumulated from the section A.

Points Distribution

Winning a match		+4
Winning in overtime		+3
Drawing a match		+2
Losing in overtime		+1
Losing a match		+0

Distribution is set up this way to allow for conservation of points. In any given match, +4 points are awarded between the two teams involved.

6 TEAMS CONFIRMED:
Section A: Every team will play against each other ONCE in the format of rounds. During these games the teams will accumulate points, which in turn rank them in standings.

Section B: Using the points from the standings determines which teams make it into the 2 finale matches. 2ND and 3RD position play in a match that will determine who lands 3RD in the season and who goes onto play the 1ST position team for the trophy.




These dates and times have all been agreed and confirmed by all of the captains.
If players have any problems with the current schedule, please take it up with your captain who will then escalate it to a commissioner if necessary.

If you can't attend a game, don't forget that we are planning to stream all matches on our GBFL Twitch and upload them to our Youtube channel!


Rules may have been updated or overhauled this year, so it is extremely important that you do read the rules if you are either intending to play or join the GBFL team!

If you are a captain, please read all 3 sections.
If you are a player or substitute, you only need to read sections 1 & 2 while section 3 is optional.


Rules & Guidelines



So you would like to participate in GBFL's Confederations Cup? We have changed our sign up method this year to hopefully make it easier for more people to participate! As mentioned in the information section above, PLAYERS and CAPTAINS sign up independently from each other. The commissioners will then select the captains that are deemed most suitable to manage a team, from which point more details will be given to captains on the rules of team construction.

The pool of players they can choose from will comprise of people that have signed up directly as a player and the other failed captain applicants.

CAPTAINS

PLAYERS

If you are planning to sign up as a captain, then please be aware you must be able to coordinate a group of people to attend events on specific dates and times. You must also be able to communicate clearly and quickly with commissioners to allow for the smooth running of the season.
If you feel as though you may struggle with any of this, it may be best if you sign up as a player and participate in a team rather than captain one.


If you would like to be a part of the project in another way and support us by being a streamer, commentator, stat keeper, or referee then follow the same link and specify the job you are interested in. All applications are reviewed by only the commissioner team so please be patient!
We will contact you with  the outcome as soon as possible.

We're still looking for some important roles to be filled in the GBFL! If you feel as though you could help or know anyone who may be interested in either streaming or reffing, please follow the links to the signup forms underneath to submit your application!


Streamer Position
We're currently looking for someone who is able to live stream matches to our official GBFL_Broadcasting twitch account. The stream should be run at 1080p quality and streamed using OBS Studio as we use this for setting up transitions, scenes, and stream graphics. All further details will be disclosed once an application has been reviewed.

It is not a requirement to commentate during the stream. If you do not feel comfortable doing so, it's no problem as we also have a commentator position that can be filled. In this circumstance, you are able to use our official GBFL Discord to stream their commentary.


Referee/Linesman Position
We're looking for keen members of the GBFL community to help with reffing official matches. If you have experience from previous cups or from playing and participating in matches/skirmishes, this is a positive as it is required you have an understanding of the official GBFL rules and regulations. Players are also welcome to apply for the position, but regulations will be in place regarding what games you are able to support in.

All referee/linesmen applicants will be given training on the correct language and protocol to use during official matches too. Further details will be given once any applications are reviewed.

Off Topic / UK Election 2017 - ELECTION NIGHT

« on: June 03, 2017, 09:14:40 PM »

Once again the political sphere in the UK is reaching a boiling point.
Earlier in the year on April 18^th 2017, a snap election was called by the current conservative government that will fall on June 8^th 2017. This thread is a place for debate and discussion about the UK political system and news surrounding the election process.

I'll try to keep this as updated as I can, and will put resources at the bottom for people who are interested in finding out more.

Underneath are the top priorities of some of the key parties. Click on the banner underneath to be taken to the BBC website to see more.

	Deliver a smooth and orderly departure from the EU Increase NHS budget in England by £8bn a year by 2022/23 An extra £4bn on schools in England by 2022 Restating commitment to bring net migration down to tens of thousands Balance budget by 2025 Replacement of triple-lock pension pledge after 2020 with double lock		Bring an end to austerity and invest heavily in public services Negotiate a Brexit deal that "puts the economy and living standards first" Nationalise a number of utilities including rail, post, water and the National Grid Increase taxation on business and the highest paid Invest in the British economy through a £250bn stimulus package Abolish tuition fees for university students in England
	End austerity and release £120bn for UK-wide public spending over next parliament Hold a second independence referendum “at the end of the Brexit process” Protect Scotland’s place in the EU single market Raise the minimum wage to more than £10 per hour by 2021/22 Call on the new UK government to increase health spending per head of population in England to the current Scottish level, which is 7% higher Support an increase across the UK in the Additional Rate of income tax - for those earning more than £150,000 - from 45p to 50p		Hold a referendum on the final Brexit deal, with the option to remain in the EU Add 1p to income tax to fund the NHS and social care Rule out coalitions with the Conservatives or Labour – but want to make the Liberal Democrats the official opposition Increase spending on early years, schools and colleges in England Reverse some benefits cuts
	Hold a referendum on the terms of the Brexit deal, with the option of staying in the EU Pass an Environment Protection Act to safeguard and restore the environment Provide more money for public services Move towards a four-day working week and "universal basic income" Scrap tuition fees and fund full student grants		Complete the Brexit process by 2019, without paying money to the EU Restore "complete control" of UK's maritime exclusive economic zone Cut net migration levels to zero within five years by almost halving immigration into the UK Unskilled and low-skilled labour banned for five years, and skilled workers and students would need visas Slash the foreign aid budget and spend it on domestic priorities like the NHS Ban Sharia courts and the wearing of face coverings in public places

For some more details, you can visit the BBC's Election 2017 page to keep up with news surrounding it.

And if you're unaware of how the UK's political system works or are completely unaware of why all of this happening, you can visit a fantastic Youtube channel, ArguingFromIgnorance. He does unbiased breakdown videos on several topics, but more specifically he has a series currently going all about the election itself.

UK Election 2017 — Part 1 — Why Is There Another Election?

Election 2017 — Part 2 — Where Do The Parties Stand On Brexit?

Election 2017 — Part 3 — Where Do The Parties Stand On The NHS

Will maybe add a news section at some point and a couple other bits, but thought it would be good to get the thread out there so a sphere of discussion can begin! If you have any suggestions of things to add please feel free to mention it in a reply and I'll see what I can do.

Just curious who built this

I remember seeing it lurking on the gallery months ago but can't remember much else about it ;-;
I'd like to chat to the person who made it, or if anyone has it, get the save! I'm planning a project and this pretty much fits the bill of what I need c:

Any ideas...?

Help / Blockland doesn't want to open ;-;

« on: January 02, 2013, 10:05:28 AM »

Was on a server just a second ago and it was working fine then all of a sudden the Blockland window vanished. So I thought I might have accidentally hidden the window, continued by looking for it to no avail and then had to force quit it.
When I tried to relaunch it the launcher would do it's thing then as soon as it started Blockland it would crash.

Tried restarting the account and restarting the computer but no luck there.
What is going on ;-;

Was on Saxaphone's Explosive Platforms server and this happened :D

I feel flattered! I had 144 score when he ban me so was a bit annoying but all so funny.

Question is though, is it possible to make an aimbot for the Explosive Platforms game mode?

Creativity / Graffiti Elephant Stencil

« on: December 31, 2011, 06:42:49 AM »

The Blockland Forum community. I can't wait to see what abuse I'll receive from the hard critic of our open armed, friendly, familiar faces...
I'm currently doing an Art GCSE at school for O levels (This is all english stuff so I don't know if everyone'll understand). We've been given the task over the Christmas holidays to complete a final piece that will be graded and sent to be added to our final mark. I thought seeing as we've quite a creative span of members on the forums I could look around for some views of work.

This is a Stencil Lettered Elephant piece I've worked between 26th to the 31st December that is going to be submitted for marking when I get back to school life on the 4th.


As you might notice there were some slip ups with it, tearing as such near the trunk, but that can be repaired with some airbrushing so no worries there! As said above it's an elephant stencil working but if you look closely the body of the elephant is made up of letters spelling out the animal. I've seen it done before but just thought it'd be fun to my self! :D

Feel free to rate and give constructive criticism!
If you have any questions about how I went about doing this or just general questions then go ahead.

Suggestions & Requests / Grouped Events

« on: March 23, 2011, 03:24:58 PM »

It has always been something that would make the eventing experience much easier when it comes to those long list of event lines.
A system where there's a little box maybe like the "Setcolor" box and you select a colour. That box will stick to that colour at the start of that event line. The picture bellow shows the idea a little better but not the best way.


Using visuals is a faster way to determine what is what and what it's actually doing. In the above the red section selects the button and plays a sound. It then moves to a "Timeout" line of events which will reset the button to stage 1. Finally if the "Timeout" didn't fire then the actual second click will do what ever action is needed.

It just splits the events up into groups and gives a more flowing feel to it all. But just to say, the colours can be anywhere on the eventing GUI. It'd just be nice that each line can have it's own colour category.

Discuss and or make :3

Help / Print Plate Problems...

« on: October 25, 2010, 09:35:25 AM »

I have no idea why, but it's just started today. When I start up my own server (Private or Online) print plates have no sources. I hit it with a printer gun and the GUI comes up, yet there's nothing on it. Just blank spaces...
I've gone into my:
Base/data/shapes
folder. Everything is where it should be and named correctly, and anyway I haven't touched it in months. If you don't really under stand what's going on then take a look at these pictures:


And no... I will not re-download Blockland. I've tried it and nothing changes. That never works any way. Still if you can help out, then just leave a post back here.
