Block Suggestion for Joust

Post by fuerchter »

Hi there,
I know there are a lot of people that complain about being able to camp the pole in Joust (which kind of takes away some of its competitive feel) so I'd like to propose a new block to maybe insert into the game:
It's basically like the 1-7-3 block (the one you can't shoot or jump/boost) but with a pole on it. By placing this block one might prevent players from camping the pole (given the proper environment around it).

Generally I'd like you to think about the issue of camping a pole in Joust a bit more ;)
greetings

As Quick-fix you could simply blockmix the pole...

Why not doing multi pole maps ?

Imo it allows ppl to go too many routes, often making it a long ranged fight (which I find fairly random at times). Joust is best in close quarters if you ask me. I personally only know one good map that uses 4 poles and that'd be city fight.

//EDIT:
how do I blockmix though I'd like to do that ^^

Blockmixing requires an external program called TmUnlimiter.

However, this tool isn't for beginners. I suggest that you spend a little more time in the editor first. :)

Well, I tried starting the TMUnlimiter before but it requires the Nations exe?

This is the wrong version of Unlimiter.

You need the Tm² one.

Well, the next problem seems to be though, that the 1-7-3 block apparently is one block higher than the pole block, see screen:
