Author Topic: Can anyone tell me which of these are still possible?  (Read 818 times)

And direct me on how to do any of the following that are?

The ability to:
clip bricks with the world (is this literally impossible now?)
make elevators
make a brick teleport you when you touch it
fine-tune bricks, which includes rotating and moving them in small increments, and adjusting their size.
overlap bricks so you can make them look nice after rotating^
shrink yourself to .1 normal size and build a tiny house under the stairs of the house your friend just made
make trigger areas to automatically change your size or gravity
alter the terrain in-game
change water to lava that kills on touch. (is there water anymore? I didn't see any)
spawn weapons/items without needing to make a brick do it. (from a menu)
spawn trees and things from other maps into the current map
-spawn a bedroom, shrink it down, and place it inside the kitchen
change textures/sky/gravity
alter your flying speed
alter your camera-mode fly speed
select groups of objects and rotate them all at once.
move the spawn location

There was an entire control panel thing that I can no longer find, as well as the editor wand, which let you fine-tune bricks. (easier with the panel, but only the server owner had access to the panel)

I understand some, if not all of this, might no longer be possible, so please don't take this as a troll topic. I'm only trying to confirm what exist, and make sure I'm not just overlooking something. The no-overlapping the world is making it extremely difficult for me to build anything I'd like to. : (

(Not because I'm being a "lazy builder", but because I can't put bricks next to a wall, since they stick .1milimeter into most walls I've tried to build next to.)

Thanks to anyone that can help me out.

1. Blockland is usually pretty lenient with building inside terrain. Try making supports etc. out of 1x1-2x2 bricks and then building on top of that.
2. Apparently there's a problem with the engine code which is making it impossible for Trader to make his elevators mod.
3. setPlayerTransform event.
4. No. To reduce lag issues, bricks were changed to a new strictly grid-based system, which means you can't do that any more.
5. As the above is impossible, no.
6. The setPlayerScale event comes with the game. Use it. It's limited to 0.2 scale, but that and below can become glitchy and let you fly through walls.
7. It's possible with coding.
8. Use the Mission Editor. Note that nobody else can see the changes to the terrain and they won't automatically download unless you save the map, package it etc. and then restart the server with that.
9. Enable Brick_Large_Cubes (comes with the game) in the Add-Ons menu for water bricks, colour them red or trans. red and use Trader's Water Brick Events.
10. Mission Editor, but they may give you a "Minigame Only" error.
11. Mission Editor, but they may not be visible for other clients
12. Mission Editor, but you may need to re-package the mission and relight it
13. I don't think so. Textures of what?
14. Mission Editor. This does work.
15. Use the Mission Editor to spawn a PhysicalZone.
16. No. This was removed.
17. Mission Editor. The speed is in one of the menus.
18. Bricks cannot be rotated. It may be possible for other objects with the Editor.
19. For minigames, place Spawn Point bricks and use them. For the entire map, use the Mission Editor. Move the SpawnSphere(s). Save and package the map if you want to keep the change.


The Mission Editor needs to be separately enabled. If you know how, change the shortcut and add -mod editor. It can then be accessed with F11 while you are hosting a server. Because of a glitch in the current version of Blockland, using it will break respawning for people in your server.

Well some of that is kind of unfortunate, but thank you very much for the thorough answer.

The problem I'm actually having with clipping with the world is that I can't build anything against walls. I tried for about a half hour to turn the lamp into a house and I couldn't, and several other places I tried to build.
