Author Topic: Placeable structures  (Read 947 times)

I'd like there to be an item named 'Deck Foundation' that automatically sets down a ghost brick that looks something like this (imagine duplicator mode) and when you press enter, it spawns a 'vehicle' in the exact position and rotation as the ghost brick. Imagine GSF Carriers. On top of that, you could place Metal Walls, but Metal Walls could not be placed anywhere else. You would be able to fit 3 metal walls on each side of the Deck Foundation, and there would be a Metal Gate that could somehow be opened and closed (I have no idea if this part is possible, if it isn't, then maybe the gate could be a 'vehicle' that only allowed the builder to 'enter' the gate, which would have two mount points on both sides of it, allowing them to 'exit the vehicle' and drop on either side). Inside, players could have their own little bases to themselves. Since the Deck Foundation and Metal Walls/Metal Gates would be vehicles, then they could be destroyed, though I'd like for them to have a lot of health- maybe 50,000. I can work out the repairing part. When the Deck Foundation itself was destroyed, then all Metal Walls and Metal Gates ontop of it would be destroyed. Foundations, Walls and Gates would not be able to be driven/moved once placed, and would not be able to be knocked back by explosions; they would be totally static. Also, there would have to be some way of stopping players from stacking ontop of one another or building upwards to get past the Walls of the base; maybe invisible collision going up into infinite? Any player other than the creator of the Deck Foundation and people with his/her build trust would not be able to build on the Deck Foundation.

I have no idea if this is possible, and this would be asking a lot.

For luxuries that would not be needed:

Most important:
Being able to place bricks on the Deck Foundation. This will be used in a Salvage gamemode, and this would allow people to hide their Item Spawn 2x2 plate bricks in the base;

Less Important:
Chairs for sitting in, would be able to be mounted;
Shacks, which could have doors on them;
Beds, which could be mounted on and would regain health at a rate of about 1 per second;
Turrets, which could be rode on and shot from;
Plain old placeable vehicles for the hell of it;

Other placeable ideas:

Why do you keep specifying that they be vehicles? Blockland has this thing it calls "bricks".

you can always have premade bricks
except i have no idea how to convert a bunch of bricks into 1 whole blb

or you could just build with all of them?

If the sentry mod happened you can just rip off the sentry model,edit the code,and change the model.
Either way /support

You mean something like this?

Bricks don't have health. I dunno how you could do this using bricks, unless you used measly OnProjectileHit events, and that'd make all weapons do the same amount of damage. But bricks would work if you made a new event, I don't know how it would work

Bricks can easily be scripted to have health.

just go play rust, idk y we need to emulate it in blockland.

When I was reading this I was thinking of that lol.
