Bunch of switch suggestions

▼Switching physics

Now there is only 2 options of switches - doors and gates, (saying switches, i mean key doors/gates, timed doors/gates, team doors/gates, switches, global switches, and others)
so this part of suggestion suggest to add option to change physic between 2 states (when turned on/when turned off)

like from gravity arrow to hazard, or from halfblock morph variation 3, to halfblock morph variation 1,

▼Ranged switch

a switch that you can interact for specified range with "C" button (or portal ranged variation)
like switching behind walls

the image present an example how range could be showed
same as in NPC's, you don't know the ussername/identify, and if you can talk with it
of course it's only the way to present it

▼Mouse uses

Mouse in the ee game is used to edit world, but in normal world's gameplay it haven't any usefull using (except menu and chat)
so this part of suggestion is to add an interactive mouse thing (like switch but don't have to be a switch) that you can interact with mouse
that would block possibility to edit, so additionally that idea need a special option in the level bricks menu, that allow you to edit or not, or special "playing" mode or something more clever
i'm the fan of the personal interacting, because public interactions would be quite messy, and hard to predict, unless all of the players would have the pointer visible on everybody's else game screen

▼(switch) Set

I probably suggested that earlier, but then it was so badly explained so i decide to put this here with some examples
So "Set" change state from anypossible to specified
like - when you choose to set to "turn off", you can change state "turned on" to "turned off" and from "turned off" to "turned off"
-when you choose to set to "turn on", you can change state "turned off" to "turned on" and from "turned on" to "turned on" again (without any change)
it's like pressing leaver that can't be pressed again until you unpress that by pressing another leaver
it's much easier to do levels with that type of switch, because you couldn't accidientally switch that back (it's sometimes annoying, especially when you have lag)
seting value have less possibility to make switch system work incorrectly

▼Second/additional interaction key

I know that only NPC's can interact with button, but if there will be added another ranged interactive thing, like ranged portal on key, or ranged switch on key, or ranged sign on key it would be great if it would be possible to have 2 options of interacting (that mean you can choose which button player have to use), so then you would have in range 2 interactive things. more interactions
This idea cooperate with posible rebinding keys feature in EEU

Re: Bunch of switch suggestions

the swich set is muchncier to use in switch resetter sjust let the player fall htorugh the switches that are set to always OFF deifnelty these ideas are ncie an dcoudl eb inplented in EEU but i dont iundertsand the 1st oen rightly

thanks hg for making this much better and ty for my avatar aswell

▼image

umm in the image above i showed an examples of it's working
that mean when state is turned on or off, you could get for example physic of half block, and when it's turned on that halfblock changing to the hazard and can kill you,
that's the point of the first part of the suggestion - the variety of the physics instead only door/gates

Re: Bunch of switch suggestions

4 is an extremely common suggestion.
I have suggested 1 before, though yours is actually slightly more advanced than mine. I like.

link??
that mean when i looked for simmilar topic last time, writing "set / switch" (or something simmilat) i didn't found any topic related to this part of suggestion, so i wroted that
now i looked in all subject titles by you in game suggestions by the search tool, and i didn't found any thing simmilar to that :S
so can you give me a link/redirect to your suggestion or someones else suggestion ???

Re: Bunch of switch suggestions

I don't really get what you want to change. If you change it to a 1-way it's a 1-way. If you change it to a boost it's a boost. What's so special about it? Can't you just place a boost or 1-way? And why should there be 3 different things to turn on for 1 block? Also this:

▼(switch) Set

I probably suggested that earlier, but then it was so badly explained so i decide to put this here with some examples
So "Set" change state from anypossible to specified
like - when you choose to set to "turn off", you can change state "turned on" to "turned off" and from "turned off" to "turned off"

You can change turned on to turned off which makes sense, but you can also change turned off to turned off. It doesn't make sense. And also you said that levels are easier with these kinds of switches, but how? If there is a boost blocking something it's more annoying rather because you keep getting launched up everytime, or in the image you get stuck.

I believe the main idea is that you would then have a way to change a block via switches which allows so many creative uses. For example, if the switch is in its OFF state it would be block A, which could be any block existing in the game. If the switch was then turned ON it would change block A, to block B.

In the case I misinterpreted this in some way then I believe the other explanation would be that you can make a block turn "off", or in other words make it non-collideable. Either way Both interpretations would be pretty useful. Though how it could be executed properly is debatable.

▼preety long explaination

so why there are switches??
you can place block, or erase it, you don't have to switch them - that is how i understand this part of your post,
and i think you didn't understood my picture and text, - I was too lazy to get these for 3 different numbers, and i was sure that it won't be a problem to understand that, i onlly showed examples of the variety, it's not 3 diffetent things on 1 block, just 2... that mean:
-when turned on
-when turned off
but i understand that it could be too big variation of physics for thier uses so at least there could be for example only possible to switching between block - different action block, or non block - different action block
it could make possible to show witch of between witch blocks you changing state, minimizing the variety of switching, but still making more of variety
if you still don't understand -

if the switch is in its OFF state it would be block A, which could has any action block behave existing in the game. If the switch was then turned ON it would change block A, to block B

You can change turned on to turned off which makes sense, but you can also change turned off to turned off. It doesn't make sense.

▼step by step explaination

so you have switches, and that setting up blocks
if you switching states:
-firstly block is turned off
-you go through the block, and it change from turned off to turned on
-if you go through again, it change from turned on to turned off
-if you go through again, it change from turned off to turned on

now look into my suggestion:
-firstly block is turned off, and for example has setted that it always change state to turned on:
-you go through the block, and it change from turned off to turned on
-if you go through again, it change from turned on to turned on (aka it won't change the state)
-if you go through again, it change from turned on to turned on (aka it won't change the state)
-if you go through the "set" block, that changes to turned off, it'll change from turned on to turned off

it's quite simmilar to keys, but permament, and has the "unkey" mode
or to teams, (like none or red) but you can get much more of them

▼another explaination

simply instead of changing the state of the door/gate every time when you go through the switch, you set that to solid, or non solid

And also you said that levels are easier with these kinds of switches, but how? If there is a boost blocking something it's more annoying rather because you keep getting launched up everytime, or in the image you get stuck.

▼Hidden text

what do you mean saying boosts!?, boost is sufficient in closed areas, but not in opened spaces,

set's are just easier to use, same as base 12 number system

and i didn't meant the system levels, because they're so controlled (but of course reseting things are much easier, and you don't have to know the switch state if you want to set that to a specified state)
in the open spaced parkours, you haven't so much control on the player, that mean still you can do a teleporter to the switch, but sometimes you have to sacrifice a lot of space and time
[...]umm i got in mind, that the teams have some simmilarities to the sollution and can be used instead "switch sets", but still you cannot have more than one team
