With the new v21 update...

[Altiris]

1. Will this mean that we will no longer need side add-ons to change the time of day and/or lighting effects on a map? (Ambient Color, Fog, time of day etc.)
2. Will there be a new command and function in events to change the time of day?
3. Will there be new/upgraded Rain and or snow (If you have not noticed Rain and snow fall through bricks)

Are the shaders actual ambient occlusions or just shadows from the lighting effects?

Thought Question: Kompressor said that Terrain caused Blocklands code to be very hard and more difficult for future updates to be made, wouldn't a lot of upcoming future updates add up and end up being like the Terrain and overflowing the game engine or something?


Post your future ideas about what we will be able to do with the new Lighting

-If anyone hasnt seen this video for the new update then watch it now!-

sorry mate, this time around he's actually asking legitimate questions, it's not going to be shot down quite so quickly.

Thank you for understanding, I also made this topic because Badspot released the new video today, I figured he would be on the forums a bit more than usual. He could pick up my questions and consider them as features.

This one is something I'd be interesting in keeping.
ontopic: North Iowa just got hit with some gust of wind and rain, so after all that, and watching the video, I hope to see better rain effects.

I would love to see his question number 3 happen.  The one thing I'd like to see in blockland next along with that lovey loving day/night video I just found out via this topic (yes I am slow like that) would be weather conditions that react with bricks.  Let's say it's raining.  What if the rain could hit a window brick or brick in general.  Or what if it is snow and has a density affect that if it gets to heavy per say a roof of a house the bricks underneath fakekilled away under the weight.  Relating to that let's say that you could shovel the snow or drive a car through it and the car will bend to the type of conditions snow driving causes.

Of course with all of that I have just stated it's just a good idea but most likely won't happen.

Will this only work with lights in the map or can I spawn my own?

Shadows are only cast by the map's sun, brick lights casting shadows is not yet available

This one actually has something interesting to discuss.
All others are just "WAH WAH WAH I'M A BABY THAT CAN'T ACCEPT CHANGE KEEP INTERIORS AND MAPS!!!!!!!" or "I WANT V21 NOW!!!!!!!!!!"

I'd like to see actually zero gravity. It would certainly make my servers more interesting...
