Author Topic: My deathball arena build, + some random zombie pics (image heavy)  (Read 3056 times)



I was on badspots party server, and Amuzet set a battle circle thing up.  It was a cool idea, but the tiny arena made it difficutly to move, and the ball kept escaping.  so i took the idea and played with it a bunch.

put balls on the Vehicle spawns, and make players spawn with only the push broom and a spear.  I "think" that the Rocket launcher bricks should be active, but if not, there is 4 spawn points down on the ground.  This allows players to saftly spawn, but have to jump down to do much of anything.

the second set of walls seems excessive, but it signifigantly reduces the chances of the ball(s) glitching out of the arena.

obviously, this goes in your bedroom saves folder

Also, these arnt worth their own topic, mostly cause i cant remember the name of their creator, but while surfing the servers, i got attacked by acrobatic zombies.

Where did those bots come from?

if i saw the name, id remember, but for the life of me i cant. 

....Rotondo.....?

He's working on a zombie mod which I hope isn't a secret or he'll beat me for saying this. He beats me you know.

I want to see another Zombie Mod, Rotondo seems Zombie Fandic but not as bad as this guy I know.
Tip: Make your pictures smaller, 99% of us don't have a screen that size. Even my screen is smaller then it and its big.

sorry, those are pretty much raw images from my game, thats why i put the warning.  blockland looks good at 16080x1250

then why ruin it with a jpeg?


same build a little earlier, in the old arena (nice build, Im still working on one that will look a little nicer.)

P.S. i could of swarn I had one that i was hugging you

the arena looks like it was muiltyleyred, is it or you just have alot of layers?

the arena is a half pipe, with quarter pipes at either end.  Its 2 big baseplates.

theres a problem where the balls glitch thought walls, so i built a second line of walls around the outsider, just far enought that a player can walk between them.  I also built a second roof above the building.

Any ball that make it trough the first wall is usually stopped by the second.  because of the distance, its not all the way throught the first wall, so shotting it with the rocket launcher will usually cause it to bounce back in.

and yeah, as far as looks, its got some work that needs to be donw, but i just wanted to get it as functional as possibe.

next im gonna try my hand at making a break floor arena.  Ive seen a few that look like a good start, but ive got a few ideas that might make it more intresting.  I've also got a King of the hill match idea, but someone needs to make "point blocks" that you can stand on and get points before it is worth anything.


i shrank the images to reduce screen stretch. originals if you wanna read something from one.

Also, i think i included it in the first post, but just in case, the death ball arena save is here too.  I built in on the badspot server, and while I've cleaned up alot of the pub bricks that were there, theres a chance ive missed someone else's build if it was hidden.

coming soon, my KoTh arena.  It started as a pyramid that had a foot print of 4x4 big base plates.  It weighed in at approx 16k bricks.  I built supports for it, and cut off the bottom half, reducing it too 4k ish.  Ive got a bit more, and one of the visitors who tested suggested catwalks underneath.  Sounds like a good idea, so i plan on playing with it for a bit.
