Author Topic: Temporary Build Wall Tool (For minigames, not building)  (Read 1493 times)

So I just thought of the wall tool from Roblox that builds a temporary wall for you, and I was thinking it would go well in blockland too. So what it would do would build a wall out of a random color of 2x4s probably 6 of them wide and 1 brick taller than the player. Then after a certain amount of time it would delete itself. If some bricks were blown up before that time limit it would delete those bricks right then. What I am wondering if something like this is possible. Maybe if it build the bricks with the public brick ID?

So kind of like the Block skill in S4 League?

Seems interesting.

This could be useful as a temporary shield. Support.

This is possible, but not with bricks, considering that the player could be oriented diagonal to the grid.

This could be done with static shapes I believe.

There was this brickpack which included rotated bricks, that could work better.

Isn't there already a console command that does something like this? Similar to buildstairs();, like spam(); or something. It builds a big cube or wall or something out of random colors of bricks

confetti();?

buildwall(); I think. Now if you could only make it work like how I described it.

Skip to 1:36 in this video to see what I'm asking for (yeah I know its some stupid roblox video)

Already exists, here you go: Server_Barricade

You need to collect things to make the wall, has an HP bar above the wall, and shooting the wall lowers HP.

/barricade for help.

Not really what I'm asking for, I don't want to collect stuff, just something that will build a temporary wall at anytime I want (only 1 wall out at a time of course).

Only con is on ROBLOX you can easily walk through the wall.

But if it was in blockland, the only thing you would have to worry about is it being blown up.

How about a bunch of bots that look like bricks?

I think it would be better to use static shapes that have health

But then you wouldn't be able to blow it up with rockets and the like. Is there no way to call the buildwall(); function and work if you don't have trust to the brick the wall will be built on? (If you loaded the save as public bricks, I guess that wouldn't be a problem)
