Author Topic: Version 20?  (Read 17147 times)

List of things I want to see in Blockland V20:

1. More default hats.
2. Vehicle events.
3. Furry support. (Flame if you like.) What? What does this even mean?
4. A more effective censor chat.
5. Brick physics that don't lag the place.
6. AllPlayers event target.
7. No more of that "server connection timing out" crap.
8. Audio Input features

1: That would involve editing the model, which might conflict with established Add-Ons (such as ones that are set to remove specific items and such).
2: Vehicle touch detection has been a problem forever. Don't get us started. As for them spawning and such, those are Add-On-esque.
3: See below.
4: That is impossible. People will always bypass it. All we can do is forget up our own chat by making censors that are too wide and break stuff like "I'm ***uming you knew that."
5: Also impossible. They're as efficient as they can be. If they need to be more efficient, you really need a new computer. Even mine can handle it.
6: So loving abusive, God. I go to some noob servers with a minigame that allows building and events, and use the Minigame parameter to make noobs think the admin would give admin for saying stuff like "I'm a moron." Having such a parameter without the need for a minigame would be terrible.
7: The whole point of the connection timing out is that your stuffty computer couldn't tell if the server was up or if it disconnected you. You can not prevent a basic function of online software.
8: Voice chat? Do we have to argue this again?

Wow. As I read, I got progressively madder at you. You're a moronic little kid... :panda:

I mean furry ears for hats and tails for back accessories and all that.

That's not furry. That's fake cat/etc. people. I said that once in front of someone versed in furries and he almost murdered me. A furry is complete animal costume, like a humanoid fox or something. All fur and such.

/agree

If you do the math, it's 30,000 payments for $20, which adds up to 600,000.
As blockland was released in 2004, his average blockland income every year is $80,000 annually.
the average american's salary is somewhere below $50,000.

We have gone over this before, too. He only gets a fraction of profit out of the transaction. Also, a few thousand IDs were never sold. It isn't 30000 sold.

Explain your thoughts maybe?
I guess I just had more fun back in V8 therefore I just always believed its better. Just my opinion though

Maybe there will be no V20. Maybe Blockland is finished.

He will probably make an update for V20 but not do anything what so ever. It will say V20 but nothing will have changed. The reason he would make it is to stop people making topics asking "When is V20 coming out?"

There are glitches in the game code that can be exploited. He will fix them in v20. Besides that, v20 will contain a source fix that will allow RTB4 to run without a certain hacky workaround.

And will include the long awaited beloved content uploading.

Content uploading, of course, meaning research hosting. :cookieMonster:

Which means?

He should fix the shadows, I feel like they are bad...

Similarly, lights need to be fixed.

Which means?

Badspot hosting your Add-Ons like RTB does, but directly out of the game without having to fill out forms and crap. That way, clients get them faster.

Which means?
You make add-on with shapes, images, sounds, etc.
You host server.
Content uploads to cloud server.
Players join server.
Players download from cloud server.

This way, the server only uploads once, instead of to every client joining the server.

Badspot hosting your Add-Ons like RTB does, but directly out of the game without having to fill out forms and crap. That way, clients get them faster.
And without scripts and other files that clients don't need.

Badspot can't afford a cloud.

Badspot can't afford a cloud.
Cloud server.

He already has one. Any add-ons that aren't failed and were released before v18 are already on the cloud server. If the cloud server doesn't have the file, it's downloaded from the host's server. This is how it currently works.
