The current events system relies heavily on engine code.
Reminds me of Mindstorms. But making complex things may be a bit difficult..
copy pasting events would be sweet lol
He means you won't need to download anything to play on these servers. If you're not going to be eventing on them, it doesn't effect you.As for point #2, you just acknowledged that people are already doing some crazy things that go against the existing system, so why not make a new system that can accommodate for these things naturally? If anything, it will in fact remove one divide entirely while widening another by a small margin - the divide between people who understand the whole VCE logic system and those who don't will be gone, since the logic system will be integrated into the base and not some ungodly hack that's about as user-friendly as a bed made of lava, and thus will be considerably easier to use. The learning curve for basic events goes up by a little and the learning curve for advanced events comes down.
Id even be easier if there was a button to apply events from the main wrench menu, so it could just be two clicks rather than clicking to open the menu, moving the mouse and clicking events, moving the mouse and clicking apply
This existsI'm not sure what it's called, but I have it.
In the process of learning how to use VCE you have essentially taught yourself some of the fundamentals of programming. You're already aware of variables, arrays, logic, etc. Really all you need to learn is syntax. Trying to force complex eventing into Blockland isn't the answer. You're raising the difficulty of eventing for all users just to satisfy a few special cases which would be better served by scripts.
thisi cant believe there isn't just a simple client sided mod to do this yetwe have saving, loading, and moving order of events, but no copy/paste?
Events GUI plus
Auto wrench..?>make events>click "Copy">turn on auto wrench>click other brick w/ wrenchviola
I'm 90% sure that isn't it
So if players don't download the GUI they can't event? That sounds like a loss to me.In the process of learning how to use VCE you have essentially taught yourself some of the fundamentals of programming.
