Author Topic: Opinion on a server idea I have.  (Read 1896 times)

Hey, so I have a WIP build of space asteroids of different sizes for a server I would like to call "Space Fortwars!"

Now, there will be zero gravity thanks to Nexus' space skys, server properties, and no ground mod.
You will be able to claim asteroids and build on them.
I could add boulders that you can find on asteroids and floating around in space that can be launched at other players.
The server will be using Bushido's Quake Weapon pack, with some items that will be restricted by an addon. (Don't worry I will include other space-type weapons!)
There will be space themed vehicles too.

Now, please tell me what you would think of this server and what I should add/takeout.

sounds pretty cool, but I don't know how the zero gravity thing would work out. Is it actually zero gravity, or just lowered gravitational pull?

it is quite literally zero gravity

it is quite literally zero gravity

how do you move around without jets? Do you still have friction with the ground and the ability to walk?

Well I think I was thinking about giving the server the jetpack mod, think that sounds good?

That only lets people go up iirc. Everyone would be stuck going up infinitely in no time.

You should get that one directional jets add-on, but even that is skechy. It's creator said he is working on improvements on it so send him a message about it if you want.

Alright, thanks.

I should release just the zero-gee part of Realistic Space Mod.

could you Xalos? bb plz

Your jetpack in that realistic space was badass as well.

I would play on this, problem is, without a "ground" there would be no brick support for the asteroids and thus would crumble when someone breaks one brick on it.

No it won't. The ground just has collision off it.

You could easily write a script that exempts baseplates from the "floating rule" then make every brick a baseplate. Then all your bricks can magically fly :cookieMonster:

Remember, when imagining things, the engines the limit. And this is well within the engine limits.

The Zero-G is fine, although very little gravity would work better for walking.
What you can possibly do is let the user use his normal jets to go up and use that jetpack addon to go down.
Changing it to go down is probably nothing more than changing a variable from 180 to 360.
