Add-Ons / Modular Teleports: choose where you want to end up
« on: June 21, 2012, 11:37:58 PM »
I bring you: an idea from Shadow Zero.
Tired of having hundreds of thousands of teledoors to make it that going though one and makes you end up in only one place? Want some control over your destination? Want to set up a vast yet simple teleport network?
Well this is for YOU.
Introducing Modular teleports. Just set up you teleport by simply naming the brick with teleport_[name]_[direction]
where direction is U,D,N,S,E,W and the direction relative to the exit brick you pop out.
An event is included to allow you to set up a brick as an entrance to the teleport network.
To use activate teleportation mode by triggering the ActivateTeleport event.
Then select from destinations by saying "/telemod goto [name]"
For more information download modular teleports say "/telemod help" in a game with this mod loaded for more info on commands
EL linko http://www.mediafire.com/?bk3v7peqycm2cqa
Required add-ons:
NoMove player by Phlack http://forum.returntoblockland.com/dlm/viewFile.php?id=2119
If anyone has the urge to say "no pix no clix" let me remind you this is a script/event mod with no visual changes.
My brain has left the building....
durrrrrrrrrrrrr

Modification Help / Preventing a player from moving via script
« on: June 21, 2012, 03:42:12 PM »
I am writing a modular portal addon as seen here. But in order to prevent players from activating a portal, traveling across the map and then using it I need to find a way of Immobilizing the player while allowing the player to chat.

Modification Help / GUI on clients WITHOUT the mod containing them?
« on: June 21, 2012, 11:25:59 AM »
I'm my understanding of the Blockland mod system GUIs in a mod on the server cannot be used by the clients unless the client also has the mod.
In my case I am making a tool when a brick is shot a gui with options comes up. Is there a way this can be set up without forcing the client to download the mod as well?

General Discussion / The eggstar
« on: June 20, 2012, 09:30:38 PM »
I was looking for a build I remember seeing on the gallery a long time ago called the eggstar. The creator released it and I was wondering if anyone had the save.
It was such an epic build and should never be lost. Plus a whole new generation of Blocklanders could see it
Original topic link: http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=31728.0
Edit: the brick pack also seems to be lost

Modification Help / Breaking the Torque speed barrier
« on: June 14, 2012, 11:27:40 AM »
Somewhere I heard that there was a script made to allow vehicles to break the torque vehicle speed limit.
Anyone have any ideas where the script is or how to create it?
I would like to make a speed vehicle but cannot reach speeds I would like it to with the current limit.

Suggestions & Requests / Engine Rendering alteration request: one way occlusion bricks
« on: May 28, 2012, 03:55:31 PM »
one way occlusion bricks:
basically renders the skybox from one side and is invisible on the other.
I don't think it can be done through script alone and probably requires an engine alteration

Modification Help / making mounted object player the walking/crouch etc animations
« on: May 25, 2012, 11:46:50 AM »
[not possible topic dead]
Does anyone know how to make an object mounted to a bot play the animations for walking when moving forward etc?
Code
I have also tried playthread(....)
Edit:
I mean when the bot walks forwards the player mounted to the bot plays the animation rather than the bot.
I do unconventional things with bots, we can just leave it at that.

Add-Ons / 35 Degree Ramps(fixed)
« on: May 18, 2012, 11:23:38 PM »
After a lot of trial and error I have finally sucessfully completed a brick pack requested by Plant (known a Plantr on the forums) I have also released it to the public (Plant requested this also). With 12 hours worth of experimenting under my belt (11 of those hours frustrated) and the help of various people.
Here it is:
images will be fixed in 20 minutes after 20 minutes
You might want to hold off downloading this until May 22, 2012
And of course the link:

Add-Ons / Event BrickDetection V1.2
« on: May 12, 2012, 04:37:13 PM »
Have you ever wanted to activate an event based on whether there is a brick next to another brick?
Now you can!
Introducing Brick detection:
works a like onRelay but fires based on whether there is a brick in that direction.
Overview:
input events:
onDetect:
occurs when this brick fires detectDirection and a brick is found
onNotDetect:
same as above except no brick was found
onDetected:
fires when another brick hits this one with a detect event
output events:
detectDirection [direction] [(new)distance]
fires a ray in that direction and can fire the input events above.
v1.1
minor bug fixed where if the center of an adjecent brick were not directly in the direction requested of the center of the brick firing the detectDirection event.
v1.2
distance option added by request.
every brick between distance and the brick firing the detect even have the onDetected event fired.
now for the file...

Modification Help / Invisible uncollidable custom brick

So it seems that the brick bounds work (so I can build on it)

General Discussion / Odd bugs/hacks
« on: April 30, 2012, 08:12:13 PM »
I was messing around on DAProg's server (dedi) and though "hmm, I should make a brick that makes me small even after I die"
So I did using VCE and a relay.
onRelay->self->fireRelay
onRelay->self->ifValue 1 == 1
onVariableTrue->player->setScaleBetter 0.1 0.1 0.1
then I clicked the brick.
I shrank really fast as expected. But then I grew really fast
Blockland locked up and crashed.
I rejoined the server to find that at least half the people crashed.
I then sought a way to fix this. I tried to replicate it on my server and succeeded. but with one difference: I locked up for a few seconds but did not crash.
Knowing a few console commands I fetched my player's properties. then i found this:
Anyone know the reason this happens or has other odd bugs/hacks
