Author Topic: Lagging ghost brick, it doesn't make it easier to build...  (Read 1169 times)

Who here dislikes the fact that your ghost brick lags on some/most servers? Even if it just lags a little, it doesn't make it easier to build. On some servers it lags real bad. It would be nice if it the ghost brick updated immediately and then if it can, tell the server where it is. So its instant for you(like it would be in single player), and then if it can, send the position of the ghost brick to the server. Since its most needed for the person who's building, it should update immediately for the builder, and as a second priority, update for the server.

i agree that this is annoying, when i'm lagging on a server, or the server timescale is 2, then it goes 2 places instead of 1
i think it should be that it is client sided, and then they tell the server the cordinants and stuff of where it is, that way it doesn't lag and skip spaces, yet it does the same functions

Wow...

This is actually a good idea.

Wouldn't a server of 32 people sending ghost positions to the server all at once cause lag?

Good idea. Except for the above.

Another client sided fix?

How about the ghost brick is completely client sided and other people cant see yours?

That would also solve the problem of other people's ghost bricks annoying you.

Yessss.


We Do Need These Ive been lagging with it annd it some times disspear too

Client Side Fix


I find it annoying when it dissapears altogether but is still active... Really simplifies building/sarcasm

Wouldn't be a majorly bad idea.

Not sure if I'm one hundred percent fond of the "No-Ghost brick's for others" thing, since I do find it nice to be able to see the position of another persons Ghost Brick if I'm working on the very same build with them, in near proximity.
It allows me to know what they're going to do and where.

But I guess I'd sacrifice that for the loss of lagging on your own Ghost Brick's movement.
It's really annoying, esspecially when you're working with small bricks, and they keep jumping 2 or 3 spaces more than you want. That's probably one of the main things that put's me off of building on other servers, the fact that my building is so slow.

Mayhaps only people with Full trust can see your ghost brick?

I think ghost bricks should be visible at all time.
