New Block A grate Idea

[TrickyNicky27]

I think that there should be a grate1 block that is used for decoration. It would be usefull in starship hangers and because it would be semi-transparent, it could be used to make catwalks and overhangs.

+1 support. I\'m surprised that this wasn\'t in the game already.

This would be so cool! And it wouldn\'t be a nightmare to implement either.

im a basic modder but really all thats required is a new block with glass propertys re textured

 

[TrickyNicky27]

It would not even be that hard to make, just copy the plexglass block and retexture it.

 

[ToyotaSupra]

Mod it in then.

however i need to know if starmade is coded in java, if not what is it?

Each block,wedge,corner, etc needs just a texture.

Like the top left in your t000.png texture file

Each type needs a picture in the build pics (image-ressources)

It needs a custom block config (copy+paste basic hull, basic hull corner and wedge,...)

Then present your work and ask if you forgot something.

 

[ToyotaSupra]

Yeah, it seems to be coded in Java

Can we not have transparent Plex-Lights in the default packs?

It would be good for colored windows and light at the same time and not hurt cross-server compatibility as much as other changes (on existing ships) while not adding more new blocks.

For those who want just light, they could use a wall behind, lava, ice-crystal or wand lamps.



Wand lamp: Walk-through like plants (grass, not a cactus), emmit light and placeable on other blocks. They could look like the other block has a light pannel in it\'s center.



Can we make interior-hulls which emmit also light on themselves, but not too much other blocks?

So that they be always visible, even in rooms with no dedicated light. It would be a nice workaround for the low range of non-dynamic lights (like a torch)

 

[GROOV3ST3R]

We should have this.



Nevermind catwalks, you could use it as additional armoring on your windows ^^

 

[TrickyNicky27]

Mabey they should add plexlight wedges and plexdoor wedges it get rid of those bulky interiors.

Grates will be added to the Immersive Blocks mod sometime soon.

Sorry, that was just terrible. I\'ll go now.
