Author Topic: [REQUEST] Custom Mods needed for |The Pit of 100 Trials|  (Read 3691 times)


so a gamemode is being worked on, and something very important is one or two custom add-ons necessary for the game.

the place i hope would work best is here, in Modification Help

if anyone would like to work on any of these requests, pm me. also maybe questions if you want more specifics.

these requests will be released publicly, by whoever makes them, (unless you don't want to?) as soon as they are made and if they work
i don't like to privatize useful add-ons unless there's a good reason


REQUEST 1:
BLOCKHEAD PARTS AS BRICKS

(OR SOME OTHER METHOD TO CREATE NPCS THAT ARE NOT BOTS)
i've mentioned this before, but this is more formal.
I need parts of a Blockhead seperated into bricks, so that each individual part can be colored. At the bare minimum, I only need the regular blockhead parts. Accessories and other parts are optional, but would be very nice.
Use whatever method possible for them to work, water bricks, regular bricks, I do not care.

IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO USE REGULAR BOTS FOR THIS. THEY OCCUPY BOT "LIMIT" VIA ANY POSSIBLE METHOD. DO NOT QUESTION THIS. BOTS CANNOT BE USED FOR THIS.

Note: it might be possible to use the assets from Brick_Statues to make one? It already comes with blockhead parts that are seperated, but scaled to be ENORMOUS, and as such, are not usable. Maybe if you just scaled those parts down... is that possible?
If necessary, you can download Brick_Statue

You can also suggest some other method in lieu of blockhed bricks.


REQUEST 2:
WAND RESKIN

waaaayyyy simpler than the first request.

All I want is a very simple tool/weapon. It should use the Wand model, but recolored so that the glowing bits are purple. The ONLY thing that the item will do is allow you to see invisible objects, as if you were holding a tool, like a printer. Anyone could pick it up, and there shouldn't be any /command to use it.

done by Conan. it is amazing.



Make sure that the add-on is at least usable. There's no need to spend days on it, I don't mind too much about quality so long as it works. Credit will be given in the topic and in the gamemode.

also i'll be mad thankful

i'll probably update this if there's more that i forgot, but i don't think i'll need anything more than this. thank you.

considering how many times you use the word "request" (even in the title...) it's pretty obvious where it actually belongs

already tried it, albeit not as professionally, in suggestions and requests (what i think you're referring to???)

so why do you think this section, which is not remarkably more popular, will be better?
if people aren't wanting to make the things you want just for the sake of helping out, you're going to need to motivate them. e.g. with money

it's not popularity that matters my friend, it's the community surrounding it!
as in, the modding community!

but enough about thread placement, let us go back to the matter at hand

Since what is being requested is for helping making a gamemode, it is fitting being in modification help. This is because they are not purely asking for add-ons but for help of sorts in creating a gamemode. If this topic was asking for someone to make "The Pit of 100 Trials" it would go in suggestion and requests being purely a request. But since The Resonate! is planning on making the gamemode himself and asking for assistance in the development process, that assistance being the requests in this thread, it goes here in modification discussion.

Also since modification discussion is partly used for add-on makers as a development board do to the board merging; this guarantees to a degree someone with the appropriate skill sets should see this thread.

Everything appears to be in order. If I could help fulfill these requests I would, but I have no talents in this game outside of being able to produce colorsets, package gamemodes, and building.

I don't think this is the right place for this. Modification help implies that you have a product you need advising on eg. it's not working properly.

thank you for your info bester bageler


please fellows, focus on the main topic.

telling me that this isn't the right place does very little to help me, and the only other place i could really go to is suggestions and requests.
it always be board moved, though

belongs in suggestions.
Why exactly do you need parts of the player as bricks? So you can "build" a blockhead and recolor it's parts?

disregarding whether or not this topic is in the right section:

wand is easy to do. Do you want to allow players to swing the wand and cause hit explosion effects, even though it doesn't do damage?

I don't fulfill requests in modification help as a principle. It encourages people to cross post here more since S&R isn't working out.

yepperoo

unless there is another method besides using bots

NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICE
i like this A LOT
thank you!

IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO USE REGULAR BOTS FOR THIS. THEY OCCUPY BOT "SPACE" VIA ANY POSSIBLE METHOD. DO NOT QUESTION THIS.
Sorry to ask this but why can't you use bots? I don't understand what you mean

Edit: Do you mean being able to individually click the bots parts?

Edit: Do you mean being able to individually click the bots parts?

the limit in blockland, i believe, is 200 bots in a server. systems are used in the build so that bots are only spawned when necessary (when someone is in a dungeon level fighting them)
but npc-like bots, like in a lobby, can't be despawned because, in a populace area, they'll always be active to occupy bot 'space' from the bot 'limit'.
if there are too many bots spawned at once, it will reach the limit, and no other bots will be able to spawn (along with a message to the bot owner saying 'Server is limited to ### Bots')
this is disasterous if a dungeon level can't spawn the bots it has to for the player to defeat, and it gets more difficult with more players

all bots attribute to this limit, horses, sharks, blockheads, etc

(note: except, for some reason, Zombie Tanks. i was able to spawn more than 200 of them. but if the bot limit is reached, none of them spawn..?)



some other ideas have been thought of, like using an event that spawns bots when players are in range, but it all goes down to the problem above



and to be individual bricks is just so you can color them individually so they look individual
the styleeeeee
