Author Topic: More Effective Water Blocks  (Read 1985 times)

What I hate about the current water blocks is how un flexable it is. You cant have water near slopeing land or youll get a gap. A "water gap". If water blocks could go through solid blocks that would fix nearly everything. You could even put objects in the water, not under it.


ROCK BAND, That was so irrelevant.

Water can only be placed in squares because it is a Physical Zone. Placing Blocks in-water, however, may be possible.

Water should basically be able to be placed with overlap as it likely wont suffer from the issues that normal blocks suffer from when they overlap(uncorrect face removal and such)

It would also be nice if there was a water brick that was 5 bricks high.

What about a new paint that turns any brick into water? With this the water brick becomes irrelevent plus you can fill anything with water how you like. (events controll rapids)

shallower water bricks would be cool

Event-based rapids would take forever to make.

Also, the current water brick shape FX does not handle face culling properly.

Not possible. When you place the brick, you make the Physical Zone.

Make the spray can a new item, and it turns each individual block/brick into a physical zone with the water effects.

Not possible. When you place the brick, you make the Physical Zone.

Whats this about Not Possible?

You can very easily have the physical zone be created by a paint can or a tool. It only currently happens when the brick is created, that doesn't mean you can't call the function in projectile::oncollision and whatnot.

Anti-Cops points are a bit less "LOL I KNOW STUFF!!1!" failure and a bit more "stuff that would make the idea tedious & useless".

What about slanted water? i think that might be possible

Well, if it was paint than regular slant blocks would be water...
But I stick firm to this idea of "water spray".

This isn't possible as far as I know. I don't think physical zones can be anything but rectangular prisms. I could be wrong though.
