What is it a proof of concept of? IS invisible terrain difficult to achieve or is there something else to it?


But I love Grif, I just don't know what this mod is
And how can we see invisible terrain if it's invisible?

Erm, Ctrl + M once to activate MAT view, Ctrl + M a second time for MOID view, and Ctrl + M a third time to activate Optical ( Normal ) view.

Great tool, it is like having an invisible shield.

cool ♥♥♥♥ is cool, didnt know that worked but its nice to know it does, in case that becomes useful at some point in the future.

A bit gimmicky if you want to have serious battles with other humans, but a really fun tool nontheless.
I've died a couple of times when I forget where my barriers were. That was embarrassing.

I'm not familiar with Lua scripts, but if they can set the color of particles then togging this while still in normal view would be a pretty cool addition.

Can't make it visible on the fly, but I have some ideas for actually useful/fun/interesting applications of this.

Which I'll get done soon.

oh hey look done

forcefield bunkermodules

purchase from b. systems

stop most bullets

have some neat features that you can't really observe until you do ctrl + m

no really do it and then shoot the wall

p tyte

but pretty laggy also so idk
giffan would be great

or I'll do it myself

...
That said, nice job.
Some fiddling will allow spawned bunkers

That sonar thing pelbox showed in epic moments would be sufficient to check your barriers. A glow spam sprayer gun : P

Ah, I see now. Awesome.

So we have the technology for regenerating bunkers.
Grif, you really are the man with the meat hammer. ( This is an old one )

The bunker module is epic
How bout a version that stays empty if nothing is close but as soon as anything gets inside the force field part it spawns the invisible wall.
Then the player has to move some clone there to kill the trapped clone (as easy as shooting a fish in a barrel)
Then if nothing living is inside clean up with some box shaped deep group raper

I think it's pretty good, i'd use it only when i have like a friend over to come and play it with me as the enemy, as i know him he'd be all like " invis blockage!?"
otherwise there's no point of using it if i can't see it, right?
as i said "i'd use it only when i have like a friend come over and play it with me as the enemy" and for the enemy it's no difference, cause if you would use a normal concrete spray he would be still shooting the concrete

Good job overall though

I would only like to say, How long have I been saying you can make non-scrap stuffs? several builds, and considering how long B23's been out, its a wonder noone got this working sooner.

Invisible concrete to me is pretty useless, I only fight AI. Now if you find a way to make the AI Not see the invisicrete, THEN i'll be happy with it.

The other thing is regenerating bunker modules. I have not yet tested it, but if it only lags when it re-spawns, this can make for some AMAZING stuff, especially when combined with different materials. I was actually gonna try to make a map with regenerating ground, but I was gonna do it by making something that periodically used a ray to test how deep terrain was, and if its to deep, start spamming particles at it. I'm not good with computer.

You should totally make regenerating terrain/bunker modules, even if they are only in square and rectangle shapes. invisible ones, and visible ones, even if there monochrome.

Also imagine this... Invisible bridges.

Making non-scrap mopixels was never an issue

making non-scrap settled MOs has only recently been an issue

that said

working on drawing some bunkermodules now

Try making an entire set of bunkermodules made from regenerating invisicrete. With ones that had entire wall sections that disappeared when an ally got close aka doors.

So, here's my ideas and methods:

Invisicrete normal modules: Just do what you're doing, only make a bunch of different shaped ones.
Invisicrete doors: Make ones that instead of regenerating, degenerate when a player or friendly actor comes close, then regenerate outside the allies sensor range.
Invisicrete traps: Make a module with an area that 'regenerates' itself full of invisicrete when an enemy gets into the middle of it.
