Phasing camo blocks #90

Open target-san opened 11 years ago

target-san commented 11 years ago

Actually, it's an idea of blocks that combine reappearing blocks from Twilight Forest and camo blocks, for fancier doors:

  1. Phasing camo block - becomes transparent and passable when signaled through adjacent blocks
  2. Phasing lock - phases out when activated by a player or redstone, propagates 'phasing signal' to adjacent blocks, which causes them also to phase out. Might be feasible to split into two blocks, one activable by player, other by redstone. Player-activated variant should maintain phased state for several seconds.

1a, 2a: Phasing one-way glass and one-way glass lock. Functions similar to phasing camo block, except being a one-way glass.

Additional features possible:

  1. Phasing block 'colors' - allow to assign block one of several colors, so 'phasing' signal doesn't propagate between blocks of different colors.
  2. Maybe, some kind of 'membrane' blocks that allow only players to pass. Though I'm doubtful that this is possible with current engine.

EDIT: Will try to implement this, if you don't mind :)

BTW, this would be very very cool.

wow.. 5 months.. why didnt I see this before? you guys have seen the ghost blocks right? and how they you can make them solid if you power them with redstone right?

Hiya - Yup, been playing with the mod a fair bit today, still some things to sort out in my learning. The Reappearing Blocks target-san is referring to from Twilight Forest visually disappear when they become passable, and are solid (textured) when they are impassible.

So, my chime in was hoping for a possible eventual block that works akin to the Ghost Block, but is invisible in some way while a player/mob can walk through, then does the blending in (which is wonderful, thank you!) when it is impassible.

Since then, I've been playing with the CamoGate block, which may do most of what I personally needed and described above.
