Author Topic: Brick Playertype  (Read 3437 times)

We've got spies, invisible players, and other methods of hiding.

However, we've never taken the time to wonder, if all of these bricks are absolutely everywhere, why not be a brick to hide?

That's right, a brick playertype. It starts off as an item. Once activated, you become a 2x2 brick. Activate it again, and you become a normal person.

Sadly, you can't move. This would be for multiple reasons. The main one, glitches. If you hop into a hole that's your brick's size, and turn back, well... you see the problem. On top of that, aligning to the grid and facing the right direction would be difficult. That's why you would snap to the grid, and be unable to turn your body. However, you can still rotate your view, like your Blockhead turns their head.

The color of the brick takes on the player's chest color. Also, you do not say "Ouch!" when hit. That would help keep suspision away.

It's the perfect camoflauge. The perfect disguise. And so simple. Hide within your surroundings, by becoming your surroundings.

Think like the brick. Act like the brick. Be the brick.

Hey guys! Lets make a house!

Quick, touch this brick!

Anyway, I think its a good idea. The color of the brick should be the color of your shirt. - Did not read the whole post :U

Classical idea!

I like it.


Yes. /support
But what would happen if you had Blood and Gore? Would it take away all pain emmiters?


Holy crap, we could have some fun with that. I support this. But we need a 1x1 brick or 1x1 plate model....anyone got a DL for it, in .obj format, cause I need it too.


Make it work like that and you got a deal. You can't use real bricks for it, of course, but it would be kickass.

The orange box lololololol

I had this exact idea, except it could come in a few "flavors". In addition to a 2x2x1 brick, we could have a 2x4x1 brick player, and a version that is styled after walls made of 2x4s so that a "wall" of interlocking people can suddenly charge at you.

Or you could make it like your an invisible playertype and when you move-like the autobridge- have a brick be placed at your feet.

oops I mean
/shouldhappennow

couldn't you just round their position, plant a brick, delete their player, and mount their camera on the brick? then after undo it?

That would cause problems. One of them is: What if it's a DM and a wall just blew up, then these use it there? You need normal brick detection and such...

I'd rather this be a model, as it'd be simple and the textures are accessible. You could blend into a pile of bricks from brick physics... Of course, if they turn that off, you're screwed, but meh.
