I think it might have been used for inspiration / cloning. Actually had to rename it later after the "dev" dir was flagged for Java inclusion and clashed with the new shiny :D

Skaldarnar - poker chip looks great. Want to try throwing 9 blocks together and placing them in the world to see how it looks at a tree? Probably will need some block shapes, but maybe the basic slope is good enough. UberWaffe - some sort of game-themed cable could be neat. Google search for...

All sounds good to me :-) Rather than necessarily make the center the "King of the Hill" spot we could just slowly add neutral buildings to the map that bestow some benefit on the owner. Maybe have them dot the map along the top and bottom edge or so. And we take one more step toward the LoL...

I'm afraid the computer is probably too old and weak. A netbook with 1GB ram for WinXP as well as everything else? Ouch :-( 1) Does Minecraft work? If so we'll know that Java is installed right and OpenGL can at least launch. 2) Try latest build - some graphic tweaks have been made very...

Bump - this may have been fixed now, Johnathan are you still around to try a retest with the latest build? :-)

Time to implement all the things!

We've been playing with this concept game mode for some time now and have a ton of artwork, which you might have seen around. It also is our most solid and achievable actual playable content, which has admittedly been lacking for quite a while :) The stars and moons appear to have aligned to...

Good stuff :-) I would say: Faction choice probably isn't even needed for first version, I'd just dump the player into the world as a red piece of whatever kind. Would add "Singleplayer" to first version, another reason faction choice doesn't reallly matter, and "Multiplayer" to the full...

I suspect in the individual "special" blocks that get updates via events :-) Say there's a consumer at the end of a cable network and a disconnected producer at the other. On placing the last piece of cable (a place block event) the system code traverses the cable network once to find out what...

Nice army :D We need the red bishop too, in addition to the knight, but yeah otherwise nearly done with that side. Fade in / fade out animations I am not sure are in use but from comments I can understand the intent was for spawning and teleportation (for confused miniions giving up and...

We can probably use the Oreons as a guide here. Currently the miniion AnimationComponent they use cover the following animations: Walk (unsure what would be involved in supporting different speeds - code or separate anim?) Idle Attack Die Fade in Fade out Work Terraform (Random - supports a...

Thanks for the intro post, and officially welcome! :) Neat to see the thread in that forum, helps connect a few dots now that I see the names there :D

I'm pretty sure that's okay :D

I certainly agree that we don't need the network loaded if none of the stuff it is useful for is needed. If no need, unload :-) I suspect we'll eventually approach some sort of region approach where we don't keep the whole world loaded in the same block of memory. Lots of stuff could be left...

I was just thinking one single island like the map, multiple islands is another idea :) It might have some advantages if we don't want players tunneling across the entire map. Another possibility is leaving the world very "thin" to not leave a huge underworld to tunnel through. Overworld is...

Added another big pile of issues to GitHub tonight, one more batch tomorrow and maybe I'll be able to catch up with the forum and other stuff (like GitHubby intro stuff). Oh, and fixed the applet and stuff too :P

Totally doable. Build a block shape and apply it to the mineral block. Seed it in the ground in terrain gen (we used to have that). Would look kinda like Thaumcraft (I think?) crystals. Might be a slight bit less performance friendly to seed a good amount of shaped blocks in the natural world...

I don't think entities would necessarily be broken up by chunk state if you wouldn't want that? If you have a few networks in a world and each have a controlling entity (that would get loaded in the System and hooked up to appropriate stuff) with EntityRefs to special parts of the network that...

Absolutely. Was just getting too late last night :D Will try to look at something this evening. In the meantime - when you have a fully animated model in Blender do you know how to get all the right file formats we need out of it? I'm not sure if that's already magically the case or we have to...

I would definitely say go for the full on graphic card symbols on a few minerals unique to L&S. We don't need a lot, 2 "per side" would be plenty :-)
