Moving words

[Robohuman]

I was thinking for like a train station or airport they could use some moving words on bricks like a 2x1 word moving brick or a 16x1 moving word brick just an idea but could someone make?

What, like a scrolling marquee?

[Robohuman]

well you know at airports how they have Airlines:
                                                                  Delta>>>>
(arrows point the way they go)
kind of like that

You could code an ID script type thing. Line up bricks and hit each in order to put them on a $ list

Code: [Select]

Ex: $Scroll[%client/bl_id]::Brick[$Scroll[%client.bl_id]::num++] = %brick; then put in the scroll message and a script would constantly move the decals to the right....sounds laggy

does sound like a good idea

[The Prophet]

Lol, lag isn't a good idea

[Junior]

yes it would be uber lag but would look cool

It sounds possible. Would the message "wrap"
| 1 2 3 |
| 3 1 2 |
| 2 3 1 |
| 1 2 3 |
| 3 1 2 |

or "loop"

| 1 2 3 |
|    1 2 |
|       1 |
| 3       |
| 2 3    |

You could make it do both.

i dont want lag it could be simple... like a 1x1 next to another 1x1 then in one type an "a" then it goes to the second brick and goes back to first looking like moving and also i think there sould be a combanation like blinking, flashing, moving left to right, movinjg right to left. would be nice for a OPEN sign...

Lot of schedules at once will cause lag. And you need schedules for any sort of timing, really.

but you'd only need to use one schedule at a time...

what would lag is all the packages you'd constantly be sending to clients telling them to change bricks' decals
