Author Topic: What do you think should be default in v21  (Read 6294 times)

Sometimes when you duplicate it, it makes the duplicated bricks white with glow effect on them.
That's because you dupe it twice, while it's still white and glowing

That's because you dupe it twice, while it's still white and glowing
Solution:
After clicking the bricks once, wait for the white glow to disappear. Then you can duplicate them again. Otherwise it duplis the temp white fx.
And now tell a real bug. Thats just a user not knowing how to use...

why do we need more things to be default? i mean they are addons that we can get anyway
the only things that are default are basically models for people to work off of
the jeep is there to show people how to make a vehicle
row boat for boats
magic carpet is for a hovering type of vehicle
flying jeep shows how to make planes
tank shows how to make a mounted turret
RL for explosions
guns akimbo for dual wielding
and so on, there is very little that repeats a category

  • Pole "bricks" never looked right to me. How are they even bricks?
  • EventsGUI things can be very hacky and leave artifacts. Besides that, it makes it too easy for people to add abusive events quickly.
  • Ephialtes stopped developing a long time ago. It doesn't use fileDelete, it needs updates, itself. Not to mention it's still very specific to use.
  • addRelativeVelocity? AKA another way to hurt people? :(
  • setPlayerTransform is an obvious no. Badspot limited us from making people 10000+ size for a reason, why let us hit our current max so easily.
  • We have fence bricks?
  • Colorsets annoy me because it makes it so hard to transfer saves and such. Things come out looking so wonky, I hate it.
  • Duplicator is simply buggy as hell.
  • Fill-can works very inefficiently. I tried to make a topic with a slightly fixed version I made hoping someone could finish the job. I'd even let them take full credit for fixing it, but no one cared.
  • Kaje's vehicles are cool, love them, but there's no need to make them default.
  • JVS is an entire system that would be difficult to implement if integrated into the game.
  • VCE is bullstuff. People used to try and use it as an excuse not to do anything. You shouldn't need a manual to do events, defeats the purpose.
  • Zone Bricks was a ripoff of what I was working on before my break from Blockland. Trader got my Zone Events failed because they could extend off bricks and told me to make them bricks. I tried to code the bricks to basically interlock if they had similar events, but I gave up and quit. When I came back, this guy had Zone Bricks and everyone loved them. I hate that so much...
  • Team Gamemode Bricks are just god damn useless inventory spam. You don't use them most of the time in simply building.[/size]
Flamer here folks.

I spot jealousy. ;)

However, i agree with most of the points.
Most of the stated add-ons in this topic have various reasons to not be defaulted.

This kind of topics always get created before a known update.
But nothing you know of will get defaulted.
Most of the very useful stuff are useful, however sometimes buggy and in general better as add-ons you can download than to have them defaulted.

Stunt plane
Blocko car
JVS content
JVS pack 0
Current deafults
Collab City save
A couple of terrain saves
Candle emitter
Candle light


Whats default now, should be default then.

If anything at all?
Stunt Plane.
(maybe) Another weapon or two.

Seriously, the point of default add-ons is so people can have some content to play around with. It's supposed to be a base so you can get the add-ons that you want.

If Badspot included a lot of add-ons, it would defeat the purpose of add-ons themselves.

There are quite a few things that I think should be default.

  • Long/short range music bricks
  • Blockland Essentials
  • SpaceGuy's TDM mods
  • Trueno's colorset replacing the usual default colorset
  • One Random Brick Pack
  • Window Bricks
  • Wire Fence

Spaceguy's if its fixed on load

  • VCE is bullstuff. People used to try and use it as an excuse not to do anything. You shouldn't need a manual to do events, defeats the purpose.
My god. I thought I was the only one who thought this.

That is exactly why I use the old variable events. They work just as well and don't need a loving manual.

-Team Deathmatch & CTF
-Ephi's Shotgun
-Kaje's Sniper Rifle (IF it was fixed up)
-Amade's Bot events (MAYBE)
-Rotondo's SetPlayerTransform Event
-One Random Brick Pack
-Wire Fence
