Maniaplanet Update #4 - wishlist

[wooloo]

Hey guys!

First a general thing:
Please wait with QM, TM has to become great aigan! Well, I'm curious about this game, but I think it`s better so.

So, here are some suggestions for MP4:

• Let us enable or disable gridsnap for all objects!
  
  In Valley, beacause of my very fast graphic settings, it's hard to see what you build in the forrest. Just make the green marker and the trees in the editor
  a bit more transparent!
  
  Please try to reduce loading time, because in tmuf, threre it was possilbe, too! Sometimes I have to wait four minutes!
  
  Give us the posibillity to update and play simultaniously.
  
  I think dynamic moods would be nice!

So, thats all!

Greetings, Wooloo

In the editor, press F4 twice to disable gridsnap for objects.

As it is now, there is the possibilities to adjust maps with mods, music, custom signs and so on by using a host and locators. Additionally, since MP3 it is possible to embed custom objects into a map (up to 150kb). As somewhere was written that there will be a slightly increase of the limit for embedded objects I came up with the following idea. Give a map up to XX kb (e.g 300 or 500kb) to embed data (independent of it being music, signs or whatever). Because today I ran into the problem that, for the first time since i started playing TM (TM sunrise demo), I wanted to add music (~700kb) into a map, but couldn't find a suitable host. So, why not allocate a small section in the data structure of a map that can be used for custom user defined data. I think, I could have used a slightly shorter and less quality sample and would have fit into 300kb. Just an idea I came up with.

Oh, didn't know that. Thanks!

In the editor, press F4 twice to disable gridsnap for objects.

Actually press F4 twice does not disable or enable the gridsnap, but overrides the settings for gridsnap.

Two examples.
The default Valley objects feel like the have no gridsnap. If you press F4 twice the gridsnap gets bigger.
If you have a object which uses the same gridsnap as the Nadeo blocks (for Stadium the default gridsnap is 32) and you press F4 twice the gridsnap gets smaller.

So what really happens when you press F4 twice is the game uses the settings below instead the ones which are set when importing the object.
horizontal and vertical gridsnap = 1
Ghostmode = true

my previous request:

Adding the following.

- Buddylist: Show if a player is playing on a server or spectating on a server.

- Buddy list.. move unread pm messages to the top of the offline friends lists, rather than to have to look for it buried somewhere in 90 friends.

- An launcher option for a static start up screen for faster loads.

- An editor option to lower the amount of clouds to none to full scale, and same for amount of light in the sky.

- To enable a scrollable chat window to show all chat messages, continuously, even when switching to other servers.

That's all

- Spray and Sticker icons in editor are shown unsharp with edges.
- Blockmixing: Parts that are normally on the ground show ground textures when you put them in the air
- Many Textures in Canyon and Valley have a bad quality / 2D Textures and 3D Models doesnt fit 100%
- When you add an mod to a map (had this with valley) you can render shadows again and again .... option is all time available and not greyed out.
- Launcher: Tooltips would be helpful maybe add them
- Launcher: Konfiguration is fully translated but "save as" is shown as "save as" in all languages xD
- Menu: It is still hard to navigate and handle between game and manialinks/maniasites
