Author Topic: don't you think BL physics are a bit too "bouncy"?  (Read 1334 times)



You're misinterpreting this Scratch. Here is my original post when I first uploaded that picture:

Didn't know where else to put this, but since this is the most recent thread in the Development board, it should do. I just don't feel like this deserves its own topic.

Anyways, someone in Badspot's server was asking him about vehicle physics getting fixed. I'm not sure if this is new or anything, but he briefly explained what he has to do to fix them. In no way is this supposed to mean he is working on them, or plans to do it anytime soon - I just thought it was interesting.



But that's basically it.

The topic is locked now, and I don't feel like wasting my time looking for an epoch converter that actually can convert time correctly. In-case you're wondering why the quote looks like something I made up just now.

Someone simply asked him about vehicle physics, and he responded. He knows what he has to do, but it's not very simple for him to do it with the networking issues and collision code needing to be rewritten. As mentioned in another topic, it's more likely we'll get AI before fixed physics considering the AI is easier to do from the sounds of things.

Vehicles also go through bricks with no rendering and no raycasting. Even if they have collision. And they sometimes go through slanted terrain bricks.

Blockland psychics are fun and I wouldn't enjoy racing as much as I do if you didn't have a laugh sometimes because of various awkward moments where people go flying and stuff.

This.

I'm not really sure why, but I thought that vehicles colliding on raycasting rather than collision was intended.

do u like soppa? just asking its important to a build im making

Badspot can have truly stuff grammar sometimes ie:
"woudl ahve"
"have been fixed it other projects"

They're just typos. Everyone gets them.

Especially if you're playing a game at the time. :P

I'm not saying that I want bad psychics just because I like people flying, it's just that blockland psychics is what makes blockland blockland and without it's characteristic psychics you could just as well go play some other racing game.

Just as I like the whole "jump and crouch" combat in dms. You don't get these kind of stuff in other games.

It's the charm with blockland.
