Add-Ons / Re: Grappling Hook [By Hata/tommybricksetti, edited by Conan]

i just have some changes/new additions planned that would make about 50% of the code mine.

Alright, I'm looking forward to it. Just to be clear though, the part that makes the player actually swing was very complicated vector math and physics. We both know you couldn't code anything like that, so don't even bother trying to minimize how difficult a task it was for me to make it work the way it does.

Credit's already in the OP, putting it in the title is redundant

Well, he just edited that part in after LegoPepper posted, and he's been getting a lot of compliments for my work. So, to clarify who actually did the work, it's simpler to put it in the title somewhere.

Another possible title:  "Grappling Hook [By Hata, edited by Conan]"

oh boy your entitled ass is here again

Pfft, so in your delusional fantasy land taking credit for my own work is "entitled"? Hilarious.

Cool. Why don't you change the topic name to "Hata's Grappling Hook (Edit)" though, since as you said, I made 90% of it.

I can understand I guess, but if a few months ago they removed the public folder system, then why did you edit that post only a few weeks ago? Jw.

Didn't care enough to at the time, to be totally honest.

And by the way, I have actually been coding on my server on and off for the past 3 years, in spite of not officially releasing anything on the forums. I saw a lot of people in the previous replies saying I've been gone, but if they'd had me on Steam, they'd know I was coding essentially the whole time. Mainly working on that flagship Adventure Player climbing mod.

hata was like, breaking the links on his old add-ons topic.

Are you serious... Obviously I didn't break my own links.

In fact, if you check out Titanium Man's UI, you can see that his Dropbox Download links are still broken, in the same way that mine were.

If you were familiar with Dropbox you'd know that, a few months ago, they removed their Public folder system. All my Image and Download links were through Dropbox, so the links broke. Any topic I have with working links is one that I manually updated recently.

I released a few 'Ninja Updates' as well for some of the topics, if the current version I had of the mod was close enough in stability to the released version. E.g. Hata's Shader Toggle.

Player_Adventure is literally the same as the parkour player

It's this type of stupidity that I don't have the patience for. If you were going to say it's similar to something, say Fluidity (which it's the direct successor to).

Adventure Player functions nothing like Parkour Player. And even Parkour Player uses some of my code for the ledge detection; you can ask JackNoir himself.

Tool_Grapplehook has already been polished up

Again, it's not for you to decide when it's polished enough. That's the creator's decision. This is that entitlement thing I was talking about.

From this point forward, if I see a stupid comment I'm not replying.

So you’re such a perfectionist that you sold an add-on you weren’t happy with to someone for real life money? Right

I'm getting tired of your skepticism guy. I'm being totally honest here and you're being unnecessarily aggressive and disrespectful. I'm just going to stop replying to you from now on.

I didn't sell the mods for money because I felt they were worth money; I sold them because I was trying to buy something and I wanted some extra cash to get it. It was more like a "Donate x amount via PayPal, and I'll give you some mods I wasn't ready to release, in exchange." The topic even said that, explicitly.

why would you create a beautiful piece of artwork just to hoard it yourself. literally the only two reasons "private modders" exist is either because they dont fully finish their mods so they're resultingly unreleasable...

That's a part of it. I tend to be a perfectionist about my mods. This one in particular, I wasn't ready to release. Even though this version that Conan just released is technically stable, I wasn't happy with it.

Keep in mind though, most of my mods are released.

My only Unreleased mods:
- Player_Adventure  (has a ton of debugging features that I'd want to remove before releasing)
- Player_KingdomHearts  (I'm working on revamping it now actually)
- Weapon_Keyblade  (Revamping with KH Player)
- Tool_GrappleHook  (I want to polish it up a bit and fix some of the info messages before release)
- Player_Collector  (currently in a suuuuuper un-releasable state, it's really just a tech demo)
- Player_Crafting  (has some game breaking issues, that I never got around to fixing)
- Support_QuickExecute  (an older, faulty version got fail-binned, rightfully so)

Boy whomst the forget are you to be calling anybody entitled when you unironically thought this add-on was worth someone's real life money lmfao? That's some Iban stuff, the only difference being that Iban was insane. You are probably in the top 1% of the most entitled Blocklanders ever amongst the other 2 or 3 friends that tried to sell their mods to children

Nobody thinks they "deserve" access to your Add-Ons. In-case you didn't notice (because you were gone for 4 years, go figure) nobody was exactly begging for this to be released before it was. It's not about what's ethical, moral or constitutional or fair or whatever, we don't care, we're just laughing at you because you're sperging out like an autistic child now that you're being forced to share your toys with other people.

The funniest part is that if you had never posted in this thread and acted like a mature 24 year old man about your lego-game mod being released so that some 15 year olds could play with it, nobody would've been none the wiser that you were unironically butthurt about it, they would've respected you instead. The outcome of the availability of the mod would've been the same either way.

See the funny thing about it is, I'm not angry. It's just an issue of respect and courtesy between Conan and me.

And I still can't believe how wild you kids get online with the disrespect. Is it not obvious to you that if you'd talked like that to me in-person, you'd be in the hospital? Learn not to say anything online that you couldn't back up in person. Keyboard warriors, I swear...

or u could just release it under ur name?? like how would someone else take credit for them

this is still a really cool add-on u've made, and it'd be cool to see this on other servers too

By renaming some of the files and functions. It used to happen a lot back in like 2008. But like I said, that's no longer an issue; hence, why I was going to release this mod anyway.

No solid date yet, but probably within the next month or so. One of the other mods I'll release soon is the Grappling Hook mod you saw in the infinite flipping gif.

you're still dodging the question like 5 people have asked you already: why should it be private in the first place??

Not even. I skipped over most of the comments in the thread.

This is a good opportunity to point out a major flaw with a lot of people in 'the community'; way too entitled.

Could you explain to me why it is that you feel you DESERVE access to something you had no part in creating. You do realize it takes skill and effort to make an Add-On right?

If I choose to release it, be thankful. Otherwise, it's none of your business. You could ask out of curiosity, but I don't have to answer. It's totally absurd that you guys can get so mad about this.

It's like saying "Hey, that kid won't share his toys with me, but I deserve to play with them." instead of directly asking him "Hey, could I play with your toys too?" and accepting whatever answer you get.

why should it be private in the first place?? what's the reason for keeping this add-on totally private despite it fully working?

So if you'd actually asked me directly, via PM or in-game, I would've told you the following:

I don't make mods 'for the community'; I make mods to test out different gameplay mechanic ideas, for myself. I don't care about "Community Status" or any of that other make-believe b.s. some of you guys subscribe to.

Also, honestly, I used to be concerned that if I released a mod, people would very easily be able to take credit for it later. The easiest way to prevent this was to not release my best mods at all. As of now though, I'm currently building a Blockland Coding Profile on YouTube, and including some of the forum topics. So I don't really have an authorship issue anymore.

Does that answer your question?

also, im fairly sure you never respected me in the first place, so why do you expect me to respect your wishes?

I was gonna ignore this, but I'll reply since you posted the quote publicly.

I don't have any hard feelings towards you whatsoever. In fact, I wanted to be friends, and am still open to it.

Also, respect is not a gift, it's a baseline. If someone gives you reason to not to respect them, go for it.

In my case, though, it's not an issue of me "not respecting you" or "not liking you", but that you take everything personally and get super defensive. If you had decent self-esteem, my rhetoric wouldn't bother you.

I will acknowledge though, that:
#1. I sound more aggressive online than in-person. (Missing nonverbal communication - e.g. I tend to smile a lot, and I'm visibly happy most of the time)
#2. Until this past Summer, I used to be a lot more abrasive, and impatient, with people.

i changed my mind since i figured that since you haven't posted in nearly 4 years, you don't care about this game nor the community anymore. on top of that you have updated versions of this mod and the grapple rope, and the original versions i have are over 3 years old.

although i respect the fact you made the mod, I've decided that it would be more beneficial to the modding community + the community at large if this was released. honestly i'm surprised you even found this topic, let alone replied to it.

Again, it's not your decision to make. At the very least you should've asked me first.

I didn't hear an apology either, just excuses and justifications.

Obviously, I'm still not okay with you releasing it. So you should have, out of respect for the fact that it's not even your creation to begin with, confirmed with me first. Or at least offered to take the topic down immediately after I responded. (Don't bother now, it's fine)

If you had contacted me, I would've told you:
#1. No I'm not okay with you releasing it on my behalf.
#2. I'm going to release a more updated version later down the line, along with a few other formerly private mods.

unsure why you want to keep it when you dont really dev for blockland anymore, nor release any of your addons

i figured its been 3 years, whats the problem? you enjoy roosterblocking the entire community? cause you never host public servers and you only ever use your server to demo your stuff to people privately, you dont even have the excuse of "it makes my server special and more popular.

It's not your decision to make. Recall our discussion when you asked about releasing it. You said you would make your own version and release that. This is not that.
