    B! he chose B!

    I was hoping you wouldn't choose B... it's not even 5 minutes old?!

    Ladies and Gents, Box B contains a Capsule Refinery. It's part of the factory texture overhaul coming to the default pack soon.

    You like this, don't you?
    Love it.

    In things like this you always get the bad reward.
    Only if i have nothing to show. :p

    But where is the fun in the game if i cheat the format? All 3 boxes have a prize.

    Oh, that refinery looks wonderful! I spend a lot, and I mean A LOT, of time around factories, so I really appreciate these changes. Thank you so very, very much. Oh, and this was me a moment ago when I read your post: :)

    Yea, they needed some love. Besides, the current default pack was using old "realistic" pack textures. Perhaps we can even animate factories to breath a little more life into engineering rooms etc. Love me some flashing lights and blinky things.

    I believe it says "TRIM"

    I now wish we could put factories on ships, even if they don't do anything. That looks amazing and would be a great decorative option.

    You could use the block editor in the launcher to change the texture of, for example, the decorative panels. It shouldn't be too hard to change a blocks's texture.

    It would of course be nice to just be able to place them on ships, but the block editor can be a nice alternative.

    Or I could edit the texture sheet to look like whatever I want, but that doesn't matter if I intend to share my ships as anybody who downloads them won't see what I see.

    Niceeeeeee. It looks really good. You can expect to look at those in a bunch of other factory modules, and instantly pick out that it's a capsule refinery. And all the details make sense.

    Well, the capsule refinery make my day yesterday, and i got thinking.

    Is possible to animate a block only when he is in use? like the trusters and cannons? i want to see some animation like minecraft furnaces is, that only show when they are cooking, something this capsule refinery could use that idea (would look great in my mind) let's say that that a capsule appears being filled.

    In other talks, how you gonna show the A and C choices?

    I guess Kupu could either do it randomly, or he could let someone choose again.

    But seriously, @kupu , if people get all hyped about one face of a cube block for a game, you know you are doing something right. So.... Great job! Can't wait to see what else you are going to show us!

    No it's just the fact that Caldari starts with C

    I believe you are looking for the particle system that has been in the works for quite some time.

    Yea, @flpsantoss , i think particle effects would be a better indicator of using blocks than a 4 frame animation. :)

    Oh no, i've started a 'thing'. The other 2 tiles were not nearly as exciting.
    @Thadius Faran , i'll reveal box C later on today.

    For those late to the game, we have 3 boxes containing 3 random proposed textures.

    Alright, gather round, lets open box C.

    Box C is..... a Red Lava! Red lava? RED LAVA!





    How unusual.

    Kkkk, from a certain point i think the Caldari whas trolled.

    The lava looks so nice and vibrant and make the normal lava look like orange juice.


    In other talks, the kind of animation i was talking about is like the gif i made below

    Real nice man. It's a shame we would only have 4 frames and can't specify the type of capsule being made. But yea, i love the gif.
