Floating block

Post by Skeleton »

Since the very start of Shootmania I've always felt a block that floats in the air was always needed to put a roof on a castle for instance. I know we shouldn't take much in from trailers but seeing just the block that is need in one of the trailers I thought "come on, don't hold back" :thumbsup:

Where du you see floating blocks? I'm pretty sure the trailer was taken with actual game content!
the ceiling may look like floating blocks, but it's just made by blocks that create empty space in the ground
that means you are creating room with these blocks and if you do so with a variable height it looks as if there would be floating blocks

dunno if that was clear enough ;)

    I watched it over and over and the blocks are floating, there's even a thin square block that's coming from the side of a cliff.

    haha didn't see them and i'm kinda shocked ... it's quite ugly and i wonder if nadeo is thinking about fixing this behavior
    these thin square blocks are made by room creating underground blocks as well... but this type of blocks is not only cuboid but has a stony wall, if you place multiple blocks of this type on top of each other there will be floors created..

    //Edit: i would like to show examples, but i'm not at home and not able to do so right now, i will be able to post screenshots later
