Author Topic: Build Properties Wand/Item  (Read 448 times)

A simple idea. Using a wand/item model, you hit a build and a GUI appears giving you a list of the bricks used.

For example, let's say you made a box out of 2 4x2s, 2 2x2s, and 2 4x4fs. After hitting a brick, the GUI would show up with a list:

Bricks:

2x2 - 2
2x4 - 2
4x4f - 2

 (Done)
I'd assume incorporating a scroll-bar is possible if the list got long. Larger builds would probably have more bricks of different types and sizes.

The purpose of this idea? Build-statistics aside, it would be useful if you wanted to re-create a build with real LEGO bricks, or other uses.

It's pretty simple and probably wouldn't be very popular, but I'd enjoy having one.
Like past suggestions, I don't know how the script-side of this would work so I don't know how possible or easy it would be.

It'd definitely need a server-sided part if it had a GUI.


It could just spam your chat instead as an alternative, but the former idea is probably better.

This should be really easy, provided you modify the duplicator code.
Just have it print the datablock somehow.
