Suggestions: Block improvments & ideas.

post a small one, the image would help set the idea in mind.

Hey, I saw this thread and, after seeing the Giant's causeway, an idea popped up in my head. A stone ramp.
The stone ramp would be a 1x1 block that works kinda like the HD-erizer block for terrain. But it would only work for the steep land border (which you cannot climb from water). But the block would add a bunch of flat stones on the edge, as well as probably stretch the land a bit, so you could climb on it from water. Multiple ramps next to each other would connect and this block would also work for both types of corners.

So... why? Well, putting blockmixing aside, the player has two ways to get out of water without respawning. Either walk on the land from shallow water (which you almost cannot build on) or walk on either of those four blocks that are partly underwater. But those are min. 1x2. So the stone ramp would be space-efficient.

I can edit it, hoo hoo!
Okay, here is a link to the actual Giant's Causeway:

And here my professional finger art showing the nomal edge and the edge with ramp. Sort of.

You can actually flip the http://www.maniapark.com/ressource.php?id=2217 blocks and do that.

Some more ideas.. see what you like, comment or add if you recommend or just to share an opinion.

For instance, I would like to see a standing wood panels, (rotate) or building wood wall rooms, etc.

Lol, the stonecut outs are already out with additional power and other stone blocks too.. they were released on the forum somewhere I believe, if you need them, let me know.

There's some more other stuff going on here too about block ideas and transitions.

A block like this could make diagonal castle blocks more usable in Obstacle:


I sometimes miss these Power Block variations: PlatformCenterOutAngled, PlatformRoadStraightBorder
