Dynamic Roads #57

Open Rajatapaus opened 6 years ago

Rajatapaus commented 6 years ago

Name: Dynamic Roads

Purpose: Transportation

Description: Providing easy transportation to players without limiting their imagination. Pre set roads would limit players to only build structures of pre set sizes or smaller, but with dynamic roads everyone can build as big or small they want without restrictions!

Here is some land, yellow user owns 6 land, while red user owns 12. White Land is empty and grey area is the road that no one owns and where everyone can walk.

The proposal is basically that everyone can group their adjacent land in to groups if they so desire, and the road will be dynamically generated around them accordingly. In this example yellow user has formed a group of 4 land, so no roads are generated to go trough them. He has not grouped his remaining land in any way, so they have roads going around them from every direction. If he had not signaled that his land is grouped in this manner every plot of his land would be surrounded by roads from each side. Red user has grouped all his lands in one big group.

This also enables users to claim new land easily since they don't have to think about roads beforehand. Decentraland can expand infinitely without worrying about roads or limiting their users.
