New sort of 'sign'

Cola1 · 2016-04-17 08:50:29

Hello I have been doing the go bye thing so I don't know what's been suggested recently so if this has already been done then okay.

Speech Bubble Blocks

Just works like a sign block.

Except for ingame art this is pretty pointless.
Just use regular signs.

oranj, Weirdoverse, kubapolish, Onjit, Minimania

I think this would be good to differentiate speech from narration/instruction like a lot of people do with sign colours.

why not just add NPCs that work like signs

Do you realize that hundreds of the blocks in-game are already "reskins"?

that bubble sign should be somehow special, except for the design.
just now i was thinking about how you would ride on ice blocks with a low spike ceiling and at the same time you as the creater wanted to tell a story to the smiley, who is taking the ride. long story short: give these bubble a radius, that makes the content pop up, when being in that radius.

that way you can pass by but still see the message. imagine you create a story, where a smiley/decoration is imprisoned. you can not be next to him logically, but his speech bubble will pop up for you just by standing a few blocks next to him. that way we could create stories, where someone is screaming for help from far away b

this would motivate even me to create a story map. it would be even more advanced, if you could "highlight" the blocks, that make the bubble pop out. NO radius, but rather highlighting certain blocks. in god mode you could then see which blocks(not blocks, but areas of highlithed squares) would be needed to touch to make the bubble speech pop out.
Man this is damn great. this way you could place a silent help scream at the beginning of a level and modify the font size to make the text larger, when coming to the source of that bubble text.

so the full speech package would include:
-font size
-frame design
-EE exclusive fonts
-highlighting any kind of area of the whole map, that makes the bubble appear
- customizable placement of the appearing bubble.

you would not even need a sign symbol or anything.
just an event triggering a speech bubble to appear and the event is touching a highlighted area, that is invisible to the player.

that would require an additional layer i suppose.

sry for the bad explanation or english. hope you get the idea. since that "idea" originated from this thread, i will not make a new one.
