Droppods

[joykler]

i see people dont like my idea thats fine
but i will stand up for my ideas as long people think of it as impossible
or mock it

the last thing i say is what happened in russia last week

[cats]

I think this is all because people are too polite to say "no joykler, I don't like that idea." So I'll say it.

I think ACH is going to extreme lengths to say that, and we've all said it in our own special way. But I mean hey, this is minecraft, fiziks no werk write. You may be able to hitch a ride on an asteroid, if you hollow it out and do some crazy stuff with it, then gently crash it into another body. You might survive. In minecraft.

OOH I SEE it's meteors right?

Okay I get it.

We put a meteor and you sit in it. Support.

[joykler]

common your joking right you didnt get that at all ?

i was talking about all the space debris if that are pieces of old vessels
or meteors it doesnt matter joy place your well protected pod somewhere safe in the meteor and hope to survive

[Keon]

I was thinking more like the kinetic bombardment in The Moon is a Harsh Mistress.

[Prototype]

What the rice bowls? That's what I was originally on about when I said weaponised drop pods

[Keon]

Well, I suppose somebody could make pods without breaks. Adding that in.

[Keon]

So the GUI is done.

Right now I'm polishing it up and working on fixing those little bugs. I may try to extend Explosion and make an explosionA (The thing that actually destroys things and kills mobs) that only destroys blocks so you can have that satisfying feel of climbing out of a crater created when you dropped from orbit. Should Droppods break blocks?

[Prototype]

could you make it so that it only breaks block when it has traveled a certain distance?

[Keon]

Yeah, I already have an armed thing. Once it reaches terminal velocity sparks start coming out and it is armed. Once it hits then, it explodes. If it drops less than terminal velocity, it doesn't explode.

Is that what you mean?

[Prototype]

Yes, that's pretty much what I mean.

[cats]

Can you make it so it's less of a 'splody and more of a burrow-ey?

[Keon]

Working on making a teleporty thing so n00bs who don't want to build battlecruisers to droppod in from can get into the mod faster. Of course, it gives me more trouble than the entity itself. rrghh

Nah, they should just use shuttles.

Use the code from the command block?
