Author Topic: Brick Menu Re-Organizing  (Read 611 times)

I don't know if anyone has suggested this before but:

My idea is that someone makes an add on. That add on will be able to shift bricks around in the actual brick menu. Not the cart. So the add on will be server sided. how ever the host makes the bricks organised will be how they display for everyone else. I don't know if thats possible but if it is that would be awesome. If it isn't. Then maybe you can make it client sided? were instead of the host, each player can organize bricks and drag them around the brick menu for there liking.
This would make having a ton of bricks a lot easier.

Heres the summary:
*Idea 1: server sided, host can move bricks around to his liking for everyone to enjoy.
*Idea 2: Client sided, every person on the server can make the brick menu how they want it to be.


Not clear enough?
Ask questions and ill try and answer them as best i can. This has been something that i think will be incredibly useful

Edit: I don't want just /support, i want to hear your ideas and if this is possible. If you say that you support and don't do anything about it. Then what is the point? If you like it say you agree with me. But give ideas of your own

The ramps just need some organizing.

A lot of brick packs make their own tabs.. wouldn't you just want to mix them in with the other bricks. And when you DL some packs that add to certain sections, its not always in order. Or in the right spot.

Should be possible, just need an easy to use way to change the category and subcategory fields of the datablocks.

I think it should be client side, but let the server send a recommended organization of bricks. The only problem with that is, if you don't have the client side mod, it wouldn't work. So maybe that's a good reason to make it server side, but you might have to do something hacky to get that working correctly.

Well if some players don't have it thats fine. The players can go downland it if they want it. i'm just saying for those players who would like to have it can use it to make building especially on free build servers easier. But if it was server sided that would be even better in my opinion.

I don't understand the need or purpose for customization in the brick menu.

But I don't download those bricks; they don't even have icons! :cookieMonster:

Then this isn't something you will need. So don't worry about it :o
