Author Topic: Build stealer  (Read 1438 times)

Didn't someone once make their own brickpack of entirely default bricks, so when someone saved and loaded nothing would load?
That's loving genious.

What I like to do is make a random brick (or like 50 random bricks) in somewhat difficult to reach areas (like ceilings etc, stuff people normally don't look at or get near to) evented to spawn tank shells at a constant relay when activated. This way it's hilarious when your build gets 'stolen' and you tell everyone where these bricks are.

what if someone wants to try it out in singleplayer
because I do that all the time, I don't use it in multiplayer though

edit:
this game encourages you to do stuff like that, then maybe learn from what someone did or build up on it. otherwise badspot wouldn't have let just anyone to save any build while they're on a server.
if anything you should be honored that your build was so good that someone wanted to act like they made it, but it still isn't morally right.

no badspot revoked people for making scripts that ban people when they send a save request for events to the server
making a brick pack out of your own bricks is fully legal

A little off topic but how can you be new to the forums when your BLID is 32851? A new users BLID is a lot high than that in my opinion. Unless you just joined the forums, which is kind of suspicious.

old bl users just joining the forums/not posting much is a common thing
plus bl_id is based on who joins first in-game, not forums

I've had a couple of build a stolen, and it doesn't really matter. If it gets stolen, it gets stolen. You just have to hope that when you hosted it, was popular enough for people to know who made it. And if not, and the stealer made it popular, just think that your build had the potential of making a server popular.

I hadn't had a forum account, I have had a BL account for a while, I joined forums so I could maybe post content, IDK if I'll do it though.

I agree with AutoBahn. It isn't a problem if they save your build just to build onto it or play with it, but it's bad if they're taking credit for making it entirely. There isn't such a thing as "build stealing", the proper term would be taking credit for something you didn't do.
I wouldn't care if he had just used it but gave credit, but he actually said I stole it from him just to make a scene and just to try and justify what he did by making people on the server think I stole it from him, people even helped me build, Fun Girl, Sockratis and Scnidcate the Gamer (I don't think I spelled that right) all helped me make that map, I had more than that, I just couldn't name all of them. If you asked them they would say yes, because I made the school and house right in front of Fun Girl, I'm sorry I didn't take a screen shot, because the stuff he said was ridiculous.

Alright

Yeah, I guess a pretty cool way to look at it, I might lock this subject because it's not getting any hate but a lot of people go on my server, so I'm guessing the chances of him being able to take the map are very slim.

Alright
I've never really been into the forums until I realized RTB isn't coming back any time soon, the main reason I got an account is to post content and download content.
