Brick Physics Preview

I believe not, the RL did nothing to the bricks.

If an explosion goes off near physics bricks they will fly around.

They had a lot of this in L4D, its a shame its Client only though, I would of liked being able to make a brick contraption and crush people within it. But I suppose client only isn't all bad, I mean if I ran through a bunch of bricks wouldn't the same thing happen else where?

Yes, if the clients have physics enabled. Also, any way to make falling bricks kill/hurt, not just bounce off their heads?

[Explosivo]

Will there be two different Blocklands (one with physics and one without, I assume)

It's a update there won't be to different blocklands.

Not currently. Maybe someday. You can always drop invisible projectiles or do other clever things to get similar effects.

Wait
What does client-only mean?

[kompressor]

Each client simulates the physics on its own, without synchronizing with the server or other players. So it's mostly the same but not identical.

I would so make a promo for this if I had the chance.

is this really cpu intensive?

someday would be nice.

Glad to see your back from being gone for forever, by the way.

It can be, but there are protections in place - it will reduce physics calculations or even turn them off entirely if your computer is too slow or there are too many bricks.

Hmm, I'd like to see a beta Rube Goldberg device. If possible.
