Author Topic: Planet Bricks  (Read 7518 times)

I found an old topic explaining everything that I would want here http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=206229.0 but the size would be ALOT bigger. The reason I want these is im thinking about making a space exploration game in BL and I need either a giant brick you can build inside or something like a giant emitter, can someone please help?

this would be super sweet to have

Might have to settle for static shapes. I don't see this happening with a brick, especially since bricks cannot have textures.

Sure you could have a print brick but then you have to figure out how to get a spherical print to work properly if possible.

Is there any tutorials on how I would go buy making them?

I haven't seen any. I just know it's harder than using torque constructor.

Which is why people haven't made a static kitchen yet.

People hate staticshapes becuase FPS issues. I could teach you via PM how to make the staticshape planet.

There is a reason static bricks were officially killed after v8.

Just post it here, if you make your server crap by using them, then it's your own fault.

What about the floor of the environment? I don't believe you can remove that so space stuff is out.

i think that you can delete the ground with a console command, similar to this one
Sky.delete();

but thats only a guess

maybe Ground.delete();

Or instead of messing with objects and deleting them, you could always use a transparent texture or set the ground color's alpha to 0.

but then you couldn't fall to infinity like in space

You wouldn't be able to plant any bricks down there anyways.

Make one with ModTerrain?
