General Discussion / Stupid Ideas Spamming the Suggestions Board

« on: January 03, 2011, 07:11:37 AM »

I notice that there are annoying topics like "Banned Add-ons" and "Mine-nuke gun" which will never be made but people go and keep posting, resulting in them being bumped and other good ideas being ignored. There should be a system or administrator to stop this.

Suggestions & Requests / Poisonous Gas Mod.

« on: December 30, 2010, 01:12:10 PM »

For Christmas I got Call of Duty Black Ops. As you know in the single player story, Russia is trying to use a Bio-hazardous gas against America called NOVA 6. I thought that it would be cool to have this on science lab styled builds. There would be large tanks filled with a gas, Poisonous Gas which killed you by breathing it in, and Acid Gas that would burn a players skin. To avoid the effects of these gases you would need a special item. For the Poisonous Gas you would wear a gas mask. For the Acid Gas you would need a hazmat suit. The hazmat suit also pretects you from Poisonous Gas. These items can be punctured, to show their remaining durability there is a bar on the item icon that goes down with damage. It would be a good idea to carry around high caliber weapons to easily puncture enemy gear. The Gas Tanks would breck by shooting them or being blown up. The gas cannot go through bricks, so it is a good idea the close the doors of a gas filled room.

Games / Minecraft War Mod (Good idea?)

« on: December 14, 2010, 02:44:07 PM »

Throughout history, societies have fought for resources for their own survival. In minecraft you gather resources to survive. Why not make a team based mod where you fight and mine to survive and eliminate the enemy? There will be a fortress for each team where the players will spawn and use as a base of operations. When you spawn you are givin a level 1 assault rifle, level 1 pistol, level 1 knife, wooden tools and no armor. New weapons will need to be bought and are organized by specialty: Assault, Sniper, Shocktrooper, Medic, and Demolition. You gather resources to craft or you can trade in to get money. Buying is the only way to get weapons and other items. Crafting is still enabled but only can do so much. Certain resources give certain money. Weapons have a limit to how many rounds you can have in your inventory. This is to prevent some one to have like 64 rockets for their rocket launcher. Weapons are not the only things to buy. You can buy armor and camos to customize it. Armor also reduces damage weapons do to you, but damages the armor. Unless you are shot with a weapon that penetrates armor. For player not to be so lost in the battlefeild there will be a map to access displaying the enviornment and your teammates there. Certain radars will make you able to see discovered cave systems.

There will probably be more to add, have any comments about it or think if it's a good idea?

Suggestions & Requests / Gamemode Marked Man (Free-for-All)

« on: December 07, 2010, 02:02:33 PM »

I feel that Blockland doesn't have enough DM Gamemodes. All we have is default Deathmatch and King of the Hill Free-for-All. I thought up an idea where one brave player would have to step up to the plate against all of the other players and get rewarded for how long he has it. DM Marked Man. To win a player must pick up a flag randomly spawned on a Flag Spawn (able to have one or more). 1 You could set a point limit and ratio of points per seconds (P points per S seconds). The player would need to collect enough points up to the limit by holding the flag. The more time the "Marked Man" has the flag the more points he has. If someone kills the marked man that player stops gaining points and the flag will be dropped, leaving other players to obtain it. 2 Time the player is holding the flag. When a player picks up the flag he starts a timer that counts the seconds he has held the flag. When the time limit of how long he needs to hold it is reached the marked man wins the round. 3 Round time limit. This is a limited time round, the player whose held the flag the longest is the winner. In all three settings each players HUD has the location of the flag and the location of a player that has it. When a player picks up a flag the HUD says, "You are the Marked Man!" and displays how long you've held it or how many points you have according to the setting. In the player menu you will be able to see how long a player has held a flag to see what time you have to beat.
Please post any comments or ideas you have for the mod.

Off Topic / I'm Sick

« on: December 07, 2010, 07:45:08 AM »

Yesterday I got a head cold at school. I couldn't look down at a paper without getting a headache. My throat's sore, and my nose is running. Being sick sticks, I can't talk from my sore thoat and I'm going to fall behind. I'm probably going to have to do three days worth of math, and other stuff I missed.
Share stories of times when you were sick.

General Discussion / Filming ispiration.

« on: December 05, 2010, 08:24:46 AM »

Today while trying to make a small castle that I accidentaly forgot to save. I discovered new detailed floor building methods. I got bored so I got a bunch of horses and started to stack them into a tower (without teleporting). I started killing the horses with a bow just because of bordem. I noticed they started to follow me. I knew they would do it but with the many horses I spawned it was funny. I now finally have the motivation to start filming Blockland videos. I'm going to get Fraps If anyone knows of a computer filming software better than fraps, please post the website address.

Suggestions & Requests / Eventing Feild Guide (Manual)

« on: December 04, 2010, 09:43:17 PM »

I feel that alot of the players on Blockland don't know how to use events. When I was a newb at this game I was confused with things like "OnActivate." I didn't know that it meant clicking the brick. I think there should be a manual of the events. Telling what they do, brecking down the structure of an event, and giving examples. Some players aren't just stupid, they're uneducated. Hopfully players who make new events contribute to the manual and write down the details of the event. The manual changes by server, if you have VCE and another server doesn't, you will not see the VCE instructions on that server. This will make figuring out events easier and less questions in the help section of the forums asking recurrently of how certain events work. To open the manual, you go next to the "Clear" button like the VCE client. These things should be covered with in the default:

-The purpose of events.
-The structure of events (Input, Target, Output, etc).
-What each event does, including examples (organized by event column).

We must educate the players of future (and now) Blockland.

Suggestions & Requests / Feild Kit (Medic Bag)

« on: November 22, 2010, 06:33:06 AM »

I notice whenever a player wants to heal his commrades he is subjected to using the TF2 Medigun. There are other ways like giving a medkit or pill to the injured player, but they may have to sacrafice and item in their loadout. To solve this problem there would be a feild kit, a large medical bag. Like the medkit it will show off that your are able to heal. To heal a player with it, you stand up to them and click. The heal takes as much time to do as a medkit, the healing sound will be like the medkit but the zipper will sound more bulky and low. If the player being healed moves the heal is aborted. It will hold and amount of medkits, about 5. When a player with a empty feild kit goes over a medkit it will be added to the feild kit.

Discuss any changes/modification.

Help / Lost Key.

« on: November 22, 2010, 06:14:35 AM »

I was trying to put my blockland on another computer which I ended up not doing. I clicked key to change my key, which I thought meant to actually change it. But that was not what it meant, it's for changing players between one computer. So I lost my key and can't open the KEY.dat file. What do I do?

Drama / Servo as Admin.

« on: November 20, 2010, 09:03:04 AM »

I was on a TF2 server on Blockland, it was the only interesting server up.

Servo plays as solider and spawn kills me for a whole minute. I tell the S admin to ban him for being a spawnkiller. He says "im a admiz lolz" and bans me.

Who in the right mind would give him admin?
