@above: i thought Headcrab was referring to the question about crosshair. setPosition, used on a player, crashes blockand for some reason. player.setposition("x y z"); However, position = does not. player.position = "x y z"; I found out what happens at extreme axis values. Tested on Creek map. At 1k, nothing. This is a normal, walking-reachable(in about half an hour maybe :P) value. -Nothing. Just for comparison. At 10k, almost nothing. Stuff starts vibrating maaaybe a little. -No visible difference. Almost. At 100k, water and your player twitch. -Water twitches -Player twitches At 1mil, stuff breaks. -Hard to build -Particles are misshapen -Ground has holes -Water has holes and is badly misshapen -Vehicles shake some -Short bricks disappear almost completely -A tall column of bricks appears to be bent and twisted -Player looks odd At 10mil, a lot of stuff breaks and your blockland freezes eventually. -Holes in the ground -Ground collision is separate from ground appearance -Can't place bricks right -Projectile trails zigzag crazily -Can't move until at extreme velocity, then you shift over a long way -Water has lots of holes -Terrain and water shift holes and shape crazily -You can fall through the ground in places -Can't see bricks right -Player twitches crazily -Held item separates from hand -Other stuff breaks -Potential blockland crash -Player resizes crazily At 100mil, calamity. -Player resizes to no end -Held item resizes to no end -Stuff breaks -No terrain -No water -Falling endlessly -Can't move -Can barely see At 1bil, nothing. Similar to player-deleted. -Images leave trails -Can't see because of above -I think i got some console errors -Stuff probably breaks -Can't move -Can barely see chat You can't go to 10bil. It sends you back to the start. -Sends you to 0 0 0 -Possibly gives an error saying how stupid you are |

Unanswered: -What's the best way to spawn a bot that Blockland treats like a player? Testing purposes. --If possible, include a way to give it a client and make a new clientobject. -Is there a way to tumble a player without actually tumbling the player? (Set aim) -Is there a way to switch the controlobject of two players/vehicles/etc? I've tried and it crashes everyone. -I'm also trying to make a mod that creates crosshairs over other players. Just for coolness. How would I convert a 3D position into a 2D position, and test if it would be offscreen? -How do i detect if a key is being held down/is released/was just pressed? -How do i detect what keys are currently being held down? If i know the above i could just set up a loop or something. -How do i simulate a keypress? PARTIAL: I need to know how to do this without using keybinds. |

Just switch their controlobjects and client/player variables and nothing should go too wrong. --- Quote ----I'm also trying to make a mod that creates crosshairs over other players.

All i know about is setPosition/Position =. 3: You really need to explain this stuff. Client/player VARIABLE? 4: [sigh] I thought someone'd say that... 5/6/7: [longer sigh] I thought someone'd say that too. |

Still unanswered: -What's the best way to spawn a bot that Blockland treats like a player? --If possible, a way to include a clientname+BLID would be appreciated. -Is there a way to tumble a player without actually using the tumble function? -How do you switch the controlObject of two clients without breaking something? |
