--- Quote from: Wrapperup on June 03, 2019, 01:49:45 PM ---Agreed, which is why the building has changed a lot since the ancient alpha 0.1.0 leak. The current building mechanics are still experimental, but better. We're focusing off of them for a bit while we work on the other milestones in alpha 4. Don't worry, we're still changing them, we hear you! --- End quote --- can you explain the new controls here? is it same as blockland? are there multiple schemes? one of the biggest things that turned me off playing brickadia in general is building wasn't as easy to do as in blockland when lagging/having low framerate, even with the orbit mode. mouse-only/primary mode was completely unusable for me due to low fps on my laptop. |

it's still clicking and orbit mode but now you can drag to make lines and you can set resolution quality to 50 and potato mode to on to play at a reasonable fps |

We've changed the scheme from something people have had thousands of hours of experience to something new in an attempt to make building easier for beginners. It's pretty hard to find a balance between something beginner friendly VS Blockland's difficult-at-first but mechanically precise scheme. I hope in the future we can make the best of both worlds. I think what we will end up doing is keeping the mouse build scheme and replacing orbit mode with something closer to Blockland's scheme. There has been a suprising lack of complaints about our building system, but I don't want that to be the reason we don't make a better one. I feel once we introduce tools like the selection tool (with built-in duplicator functionality) and the resize tool it will shape up better. The building system will most likely be updated after alpha 4 once the weapon system is ready Hope that answered your questions! |
