Author Topic: 45° angled pole brick  (Read 1582 times)

I really like the pole bricks, but i was wondering if someone could make angled pole bricks, with the necessary connectors to connect to the horizontal and vertical pole bricks.

Oh, and the missing bricks for the connectors, such as there isn't a four-way pole brick.

I like this Idea, however there would have to be adapters to go from angled and not angled.
Regardless however these would be most useful for just about all of my builds. Especially the space themed builds.


I need them for suspension wires in a large stadium.

I'd also like to put forward 25 degree and 72 degree to make things more interesting.

Yes, i was only suggesting 45 degrees to start with and see how it looks, so that the person doesn't waste all the effort.

SO MUCH THIS!!!  Especially for railing on stairs.  There really is not a good way to currently do railing on stairs.  Almost everything looks awful.


I was thinking about these kinds of things a while back, but like having the octagon or whatever bricks which have cross sections and whatnot for poles so you could make all kinds of shapes.


Ziplines.
with setplayertransform events, this could work.

'k, at this point, you reach the spot where it looks like too many datablocks.
What is possible for the poles:

Horizontal _
Vertical |
T adapter Horizontal-down
T adapter horizontal up
+ adapter horiz-vertical
+ adapter horiz-horizontal
+ adapter horiz-horiz with one on top
+ adapter horiz-horiz with one on bottom
+ adapter with all six edges
T adapter horiz-horizontal
T adapter horiz-horiz with one on top
T adapter horiz-horiz with one on bottom
T adapter horiz-horiz with ones on top and bottom
And so on.
Adding 45 degrees prettymuch spams the CRAP out of possible datablocks.
the other two will NOT happen because that would amplify the datablock spam exponentially.
I will support basic 45 degree ones in moderation, maybe a 22 degree and a 22 degree T Down and T Up, and adapters for each to connect to straight and to connect to corner, but beyond that, it becomes horribly spammy and mostly useless.

Yes these would make builds look even better!

/support.

yea, I'm not asking for a crazy amount of these in every direction possible, just a 45° angled pole brick with adapters that connect it to horizontal pole bricks and vertical pole bricks.  So that's what, 3 bricks?  Maybe also do angled to horizontal T shape and horizontal+vertical+angled.  So 5 bricks, do that for every angle size we have, that's 30 bricks.  And it doesn't have to be in one whole pack, there could be the differently angled packs.  I don't really care about datablocks, so having a stuff load of these wouldn't faze me. 

Oh, and add angle to angle adapters along the same and different axes.
