Droppods

[fr0stbyte124]

For now, regular rails are just fine, like I said. But in the final product I would prefer that FC rail mounted objects used the 3D rails.

And no, we can't place minecart tracks on the ceiling. That would look ridiculous.

Man. I want an entity that just acts as a non-block bound stepping stone for parcour maps now. Anyhow. Right now working on my friend the GUI. Hurrah.

Should supply droppods drop a chest with items or should they drop all their items on the ground? The chest would make them not despawn, but it would feel kind of weird. I like the idea of it spilling the contents on the ground, but I don't know if that would work well because dropped items despawn in 5 minutes. Opinions?

Make a supply droppod act as a chest but not look like one?

I thought chests had to be stationary.

When the pod lands it's going to be destroyed. The question is, does it place a chest or does it drop the items.

It places a storage pod, which is a chest except future.

what about an bio pod
you can pui it in an shell doesnt matter what maybe an asteroid
and you can direct it at a planet then it crashes into the ground but remains mostly intact the pod not the shell
then you can get out and from that point its your spawn point

a completely new idea he's suggesting... but it's weird. Why would you have an asteroid as a spawn-point drop-pod??? Why?!?!?!?!

Cryo/cloning pods will work better, and make more sense.

[joykler]

think of the alien swarm drop pods
often hidden in meteors or ship wreckage
once on earth all aliens come crawling out of it
and having a rain of meteors falling on your planet would be damaging and terrifieng enough but then an undetected army crawls out

[ACH0225]

That is retardotastic. Asteroids are very prone to missing because of gravity. If you just hitch a ride on a random asteroid, odds are you'll either be crushed or stuck in a Lagrange point for all eternity then crushed.

but when adding the pod to a piece of rubbel you can steer it into the prefered direction
