The ice cream man gave us 1 scoop of ice cream while we wait for the other guy to finish our 3 scoop.

Why wait when you can have it now?
Because if you wait you can get a better, faster, cleaner version.
Think of it this way, the ice cream man takes 10 minutes to give you 3 full scoops, would you wait the 10 mins to get the full thing, or take it after 3.33 minutes with only one scoop?
You can have both in this case. We can use Space's "1 scoop" as well as Badspot's "3 scoops." Space Guy's mod isn't hindering the release of anything.
It's just silly to miss out on this great mod because you want to wait for an official one.

My datablocks:
| = limit
------------------- |
my datablocks after v9:
--------------------|-
my datablocks after v9 with space guys events
--------------------|---
my datablocks if it were possible to remove the loving 64+ datablocks the paint set takes
paintset might actually take up 128 datablocks, I dunno, but I do know that I want rid of its' stupid spray particles&explosions. Anyway to do so?

Ice cream is the best censor ever.

Any chance that you may release a special "sneak peek"

of the missile launcher???

What i meant was how about he makes a little file and sends it out as a beta.

How about no?

Too much hassle, since the code is already in the game... Just not practical or needed.

at least 2 datablocks are used for each paint in your paint set.
If there was a universal 2 it would free up a huge amount of datablocks and allow you to have 64 color set without removing add-ons.

I don't understand this, I can't code and never tried, thus I don't know what a datablock is and how it effects Blockland.

rkynick · December 06, 2007, 08:20:03 PM

most add-ons add more datablocks in order to function( weapons & vehicles mostly)
but there is a limit to how many datablocks you can have.
The paint set uses an outrageous amount when you could easily shorten it to 2-4 datablocks, thus freeing room for more add-ons.

Datablocks are used to
store sounds
make items
make emitters
make lights
make playertypes
ect. ect, so you can probably see why they are so precious.

Neozuki · December 07, 2007, 09:42:06 AM

How can you have so many add-ons? If I were to get enough just to reach the limit, I wouldn't have only have good ones, which is what I try to maintain.
