General Discussion / A project for all builders out there...
« on: December 30, 2011, 09:05:47 PM »
A new mod being developed has autogenerating buildings. These buildings can appear on 16x, 32x, or 64x baseplates. Since I'm not that great of a builder, and I want to have some asthetic diversity, I'm asking you guys to build some of these silhouettes -- for science.
Basically, certain baseplates will create skyscrapers over that stack like layers of a cake. There will be three kinds layers.
Types
1. Ground Floor. Imagine what the ground floor of a massive corporation's HQ would look like. Nice high ceiling, some wide doors, a counter, a chair, some computer looking things, very professional.
2. Middle Layers. These won't be very visible, but add some windows and then hang some curtains or put other interior decorations in view of the windows to give the illusion of content.
3. Roof. Antenna, blinky things, some metal odds and ends...
Rules
1. Submit your Blockland save on any default map, a Slate type map is best. Do not have any stray blocks. All that needs to be there is your layer.
2. One layer per save.
3. Build on a baseplate.
4. You don't have to have a roof for your layer.
5. Don't build anything outside your layer. All bricks must be on top of the baseplate.
6. Four walls required. The exception being the roof.
Notes
- The color of your baseplate will be the "base color". All bricks in the layer that color will be the same color as the building being generated.
- Keep your brick count as low as possible. This is not detail oriented.
- You can submit as many as you want. If it gets used, I'll let you know.
