Hey guys now that we are getting into brick physics and stuff ROBLOX came into my head. About a week before i discovered Blockland i tried out ROBLOX (I ended up hating it for the lag).

Anywho, i went on a ROBLOX server named Bread Factory. And in it was a guy who makes bread, and the bread fell onto a conveyor belt were it actually moved. It went through a baking machine were it changed color, and a wrapping machine. Then it was sent up into a train to be shipped.

I was wondering that if this could be done in the upcoming v11.

And for those who dont know, the bread is an actual brick.

I have wanted this so much, great idea.

no need, can be done with events (Yes, it is mega complicated)

I understand that it could be done with events, but it wasnt done with impulses.

ummm, lol? play blockland and try impulsing a brick.

Oh lol! I just got that. Sorry for that, i mean this actually MOVED bricks.

It is possible altought it would take a very long time altough use simple evnts. I could make one. It would take at leatst 2 days.

It's not possible. Bricks are on a static grid, they cannot move. This ability was sacrificed to improve lag at 100 bricks to lag at 100,000 bricks. (Performance)

Ahh, well thats a shame. Oh well! I can live without it.

Read the topic. Bricks cannot move. Bricks do not have velocity.

He means with physics, even then it's not possible, though.

I'd assume that you could add velocity to a physic brick, but that's why there are 3 fields after the fakeKill event

Five events and a duplicator would take no more than 5 minutes to fill a 64x plate.
I'd even say half an hour to add some snazzy effects and features like that.

If it would have seriously taken you two days, lern2event.
