Author Topic: Beginner's Guide  (Read 6604 times)

Hello, I am a new member here on the forums, and I recently started playing Blockland. I guess that means I'm a noob, newb, etc..

I understand that what makes this game fun is that you can jump right in and explore a little, but there is a lot of depth to this game as anyone can see, and I want to make the adjustment for new players easier.

I have searched for a while and have come up dry on the forum. Maybe there already is such a thing, a new player's guide, but I would like to add to or make my own separate guide for new players if that is at all possible.

New players might not be able to find easy answers to their questions about the game, which leads to many repeated topics in the forums, and flaming rants accompanying them. This is a bad thing. An assorted and complete as possible beginner's guide is an easy way to make all us new players into successful BL architects, and stop annoying the forum regulars. And actually contribute.


So here is what I suggest:
Post any tidbits of information you wish you knew when you started playing blockland.

Point out or link to any topics in the forums already that have such info if you feel like it.

Post pictures of some basic BL structures, and I'll use them to help make the guide

So there you have it, I'll compile this info; however, this can only be as successful as the people that contribute to it. Thanks in advance.

Ytud love whoring that.

? I said ptta one time in the last, what? 2 months? and you guys go crazy for no reason. I knew the blockland people were immature, but this is a new level, not.

I don't think it's because we think you like to advertise, it's just that we don't like PTTA (ATTP) and how users abuse it in their servers. I personally love snippets of PTTA (the auto saving, brick count, wand pass, etc...) but not the parts that can make the admin a power-crazy jerkface. I'd love for you split PTTA in half, one for the server bonuses and the other for the admin jerkface bonuses. Doubt you will, though. Sad, some things are really useful.

entrepreneur in, go ahead and do whatever you want with PTTA, I don't work on it and of course all the scripts are for public use and you can edit them. All the scripts for PTTA are in a file called PTTAcommands.cs in rtb/server/scripts, you can go thru there and pick and choose scripts as you please.

pick and choose scripts as you please.
What a shame the powerhungry children that abuse the features won't bother removing them.


wtf us up with this "ptta u scumbag" thing?

PTTA gives admins too much power, some of these powers abuse players hence the name ATTP.
