If ya’ll can figure out how to make this less laggy please tell me, but here is a sneak peek of the game I am making next
(this game might be scratched bc I’m moving onto Unity soon)

WASD to move after the seed has loaded

@the_true_odst Based off of Thid New Ocean? (Idc if it is, if it was, then i’m happy)

@sirbots Nah it’s based off of Astroneer

@sirbots Here’s the test room:

If you can make a building UI that would be cool; I have the sprite for it already. I will add the buildings soon.

@the_true_odst K. Currently working on TNO (This New Ocean) 2.0 patch notes atm, and trying to fix the build menu on 1.3. Might be a bit.

@sirbots I have the first image for the blueprint – Mining Rig. I don’t have the actual structure yet
@sirbots I have all 3 upgrades for the hangar and the hangar picture. When you have time, please implement placement of the buildings and upgrading them. Thank you.

@the_true_odst heh… I know you irl
@attractive-milk That’s not in any way suspicious to anyone in this forum?
@the_true_odst How am I supposed to do that? Upgrading, haven’t done. Placement, gotta study the movement code.

@sirbots I was gonna let you experiment? I can do it, it’s fine

@the_true_odst I can experiment. It’s just, I have never wrote code for directly upgrading one building.

@sirbots My idea was, when they press the object in the blueprint screen (press q when it completely loads), there’s a faded version of the model hovering on the mouse. It is green (and place-able) when it isn’t touching any other models, and red when it is. When you click and it’s green, it will spawn the model. When you get near the model, a UI screen pops up near it asking if you want to upgrade it for the right materials.

@the_true_odst Ah, I see. If you want to borrow some placement code, you can go to my game and take some.

@sirbots I’m not sure yours would work, since it’s not top-down like mine is.

@the_true_odst It is somewhat top down. I suppose you could just alter the general placement to fit your game.
