Author Topic: Technic, derp  (Read 844 times)

classic impossible (pretty much) request.

someone make me a massive mod that uses technic-lego bricks.
gears, pulleys, axles.  functional custom building.
and no, not some lame evented up static models. needs to use basic physics.



discuss what you would build :D

Awesome idea.

I'd probably make some elaborate Rube Goldberg that ended by something falling on a button that blew up whoever started it.

i'm obsessed with anything that makes other things fly fast

(in stark contrast to jookia's inexplicable fear of speeding objects)



so logically i'd probably make 1 out of 4 things first

> some form of formula car
> a crossbow
> some kind of gun, possibly a revolver because revolvers are AWESOME
> some kind of robot that works entirely off cues given by players and mechanics: think steampunk

yes the robot had nothing to do with my rule but forget you, robots

this would be fun, although i don't think it would move or anything (a swinging beam for exaple, attatched to a gear)

well something like this would more then likely mean vehicles could be built and used.

so maybe some sort of train car that could drive around on some prelaid track. draw bridges and all.

now that would be fun :D
although that should be possible, as the bomb cart payload gamemode is

actually i might end up making a 'kinetic deathmatch'

capturing a point or something would trigger a technic mechanism swiveling slowly or turning on or something allowing you to go to another position

and other technic mechanisms and structures would function ambiently in the background, serving as traps or interesting motion or something

Well there's an idea, instead of having to redo the brick system for blocks, leave the current system as static blocks and make a seperate class of objects that support basic physics and a range of motions. JVS has doors down, but they don't have any physics to them. Rotating/moving platforms that carry and fling crates and barrels and people and vehicles could be fun, even if you could use only 10 in a server or something. Dynamic bricks that you could build small things out of (I understand you can't put a skyscraper on wheels) would be neat too.

With events that started and stopped them, animated bricks like gears and propellers and shafts and things would look pretty cool even if they didn't actually work. Imagine having a button that started a windmill, which turned a set of gears, which turned a shaft which ran a grindstone. Or an island and boat held up by propellers. Even if it was all fake, just animations playing, it would look very cool, and it can already be done.

Th fan prop was pretty cool, it is spawned as a moving item. :D

I would make a robot :D

because robots are my passion.

-snip-

Now I really hope this gets done or else my hopes just aimlessly skyrocketed D:

I'd make Alpha Rex :D

Blockland v36 on a new engine? :P

I would make...guns, and whatnot.
