Wow, shut the forget up.

I just tried out the physics, and it's quite fun to mess with

But too much fake killed bricks in one spot lags me a bit


I made a ball pit  :cookieMonster:


I found a glitch....Say you have a wall of fake killed bricks if you shoot at them the projectile goes straight through them as if ray casting here turned off.
Some people's computers can't really handle physics. So they can turn it off. If that were true a bullet would end up stopping right in front of their head for no reason quite a bit.

That's because the client sided physics bricks don't detect projectiles.


Edit
Whenever I leave the checkout "Nice try. Brick batablocks in here only" pops up in chat.
Funny, I'm allowed to add non brick datablocks to my cart.

I hate to criticize, but while it's a nice update with the physics and all, removing the shapename functionality was a loving stupid idea.
Why?

Well you took it out to prevent people from impersonating others.
And because there is no longer the shapename there, it's even easier because you don't need a serverside script to change the shapename - you can just change your appearance.

So basically by your own totalitarian power mongering you've made our totalitarian power mongering easier without doing a thing to actually stop it. People will abuse people no matter what you restrict, but unless you remove add-ons entirely (which I know you've considered) it's not gonna stop.

And because there is no longer the shapename there
There still is a shapename. It only goes away when you attempt to change it.

I also noticed that when you goto disconnect while hosting a non dedicated, it displays "Would you like to stop hosting the server?"

V11 just about pulled me back into Blockland again.



Just about.

Yes, ie nobody can see it. Removing that has just made impersonation even easier for the richards who do it.

If someone doesn't have a shapename, then they're trying to impersonate someone, or the server has a mod that changes shapenames.

On my server shapenames show up just fine.

They haven't been showing on 2/3 of servers I visit, meaning it's still made it easier.

After trying it out in SP, changing the shapename does nothing; it doesn't even change the name off Clockturn.
