Magnetic Block - Action Tool

Magnetic block:
- Action tool.
- Similar to Ice, as it affect the gravity of the beside blocks.

Utilities:
- It maintain the player sticking to the magnetic side of the block as long as the player hold the directional key of the magnetic side, if the player release the (up, down, right, left, depending of the position of the magnetic side of the block).
- It ignores any direction of normal gravity added on the magnetic side of the block while the player hold the directional key in accordance with the direction of the magnetized side of the block, but it will not ignore other type of gravity (boosts, water, dots).

Additional Features:
- Could have an switch to turn on/off the magnetism (Like add a metal effect, so the player get able to be attracted to the magnet).
- Could have multiple magnetic sides (One, two, or four sides magnetized) (Optional).
- Could allow the player to jump on the magnetic side of the block if there is no other type of gravity but normal (up, down, left, right).

Magnetic Block - One side - Off:

▼Optional features:

Magnetic Block - Two sides (Optional):

Magnetic Block - Two sides - Off (Optional):

Magnetic Block - All sides (Optional):

Magnetic Block - All sides - Off (Optional):

Note: The magnetic block only need one type of it (Or simple, or double or all magnetized sided block), I personally prefer all sided because more usability.

---------------------------------------------------
Switch to turn ON the magnetic sides:

Switch to turn OFF the magnetic sides:

Note: It could be an effect instead of an switch, I personally prefer the switch.

---------------------------------------------------
- The graphical concept used in this post is only for visual demonstration.
- The magnetic blocks could have some graphical effect to simulate the magnetism and the status ON/OFF.

____________________________________________________________________________________

▼GIFs to show a graphical demonstration of the magnetic block In-Game:

Note: On those GIFs I was theoretically holding and releasing the moving keys, so I got magnetized and unmagnetized depending of the moving keys pressed.

____________________________________________________________________________________

▼GIFs to show two versions of the the magnetic block gravity In-Game:

1) The "+" version (Partial surface attraction):
The same as the ice, it have its corners not affected by the temporal gravity of the magnet, like a plus symbol "+".

------------------------------------------------------------------
2) The "☐" version (Complete surface attraction):
The magnet creates its own temporal gravity, ignoring any normal gravity placed on its surface.
As long as the player keep pressing the key to continue being sticking to the magnet surface, its gravity will affect that player.
So its range of attraction could be increased to the complete surface of the magnet (8 blocks alongside the magnet surface, for one side magnet, only one of its sides would be affected by its created temporal gravity (The 3 blocks lined on the surface of the magnetized side).

--------------------------------------------------------------------
About the all sides magnet version: It would work just as the single sided magnet do, the behavior of its gravity would be the same but allowing the player to work on its four sides magnetized.
On all situations the player must be in direct contact with the surface of the magnet to activate its attraction.

Hidden Note: This is an idea I really wanted to share with the EE devs, I am still busy IRL, so I won´t be around EE for a while yet.

Re: Magnetic Block - Action Tool

Seems like a cool idea and would definitely have some neat uses. However, I don't see them adding that in the future unless it's simplified a bit.

Re: Magnetic Block - Action Tool

Idea: what about it acts like invisible gravity.

Re: Magnetic Block - Action Tool

as long as the player hold the directional key

I would normally tell you that you made a grammar typo, but the typo's bold and underlined
so I know it's an intended joke, that's okay

Re: Magnetic Block - Action Tool

i would do an effect blcok that makes oyur smiley a metal ball which will wieght like s bwoling ball it dorowns in water /toxic like your fallin wiht low gravity it will alos actract you to magnetic blcoks (the ones you sgggest here) walking away will b epossible but hard you can set in the magnetic blcok how strong it is (from where will it start pulling you?) and a reverse magnetic blcok would be neat too whic will make sure you will never come in conatc with

Re: Magnetic Block - Action Tool

how this will react to the corners
like:
[] - block
_|-magnet
[][][][|
[][][][|
_____|

and i mean that type of corner
how it would react??

Re: Magnetic Block - Action Tool

What if you can place the action inside a block but the sides with the magnet still show? Then there could be different colors of magnet, and also different materials too.

you would be pulled to the corenr where it will be hard to move out

i doesn't mean a coridor from magnets
i mean the outer corner from magnets
it'll work same as normal up arow/left arrow?

I made GIFs to show a demonstration of the singular magnet gravity, for the both versions of gravity.

You know you might get a spam minor for each of the agreeds, right?
