Author Topic: how to, brick naming?  (Read 1007 times)

Yes I don't really use events and am kinda noob at it STILL. I was happy just building for all this time.

My question; how can I have the name of every brick defaulted as I build? Instead of manually wrenching them all afterward.
I would just have them all the same name.

I am sure its been discussed many times already, doing search would take very long time from my cellphone here

Off-Topic: Poll is not really needed.

On-Topic:
I don't think it's possible...

I'd rather manually name them like "Teleporter Entrance" and another "Teleport Exit" incase is for teleports XD

how can I have the name of every brick defaulted as I build?

Totally possible with a server side Add-On, but there's only a certain point to which this would be effective.  The event system will prevent you from affecting more than <schedule quota> bricks at a time.  The schedule quota defaults to 25.

So I can't do crazy stuff with 1000 bricks at a time on an entire structure?
Simply because of the 25 schedule limit?
Or am I understanding that all wrong.

I get how that prevents some abuse and server crashing. But lame :(

Not without delays.  If you want to process <schedule quota> bricks at a time, delay a bit (>= 33ms), and process the next set of <schedule quota> bricks - that should work.  But processing a stuffload of bricks all at once won't work unless you're the host and you push the schedule quota ridiculously high.

...I'm horrid at events too. There should be an instruction manual, heh.

I guess a basic eventing tutorail In-Game wouldn't be all too bad, but im not entirely ssure how BadSpot would go about making it, if he were too.

I think i might do that :/

Could be helpful :D

Assuming that you're admin, Bisjac, name one brick then dupe it. Crude, yet effective.

A way to have the brick named from the creation of the brick? No clue. But you can use auto wrench.

But you can change the schedule limit, right?  So you are not stuck with the 25 schedule limit.  Although really, putting a delay is the best thing.

You can use the copy tick box, But you still have to wrench it.
