Remove party button block limit

[true mantle]

I was working on a build which requires a lot of party buttons and the message appeared saying I reached the limit.

Remove party button block limit

[vernal knot]

Unfortunately the limit is necessary to for performance reasons but there are lots of clever ways to get around it by using cannon chains or icicles

[true mantle]

Oh ok

Yall should add just a normal button block,would trigger bombs and canons, whatever is placed next to it(like the minecraft button), it would solve my problem and others too

[vernal knot]

you can trigger nearby objects with the explosion of a confetti cannon (which has a range in front of it) or an exploding icicle

[lucid summit]

I think he means there are a lot of ideas not able to be made cause theres a limited amount of colors and his idea doesnt require the colors

[vernal knot]

I think I'd just need to know more about what the ideas are in order to see if there's a different compromise

[lucid summit]

This is a map I made but was only able to make 1 room due to there not being many colors

i made the buttons a one time press which was necessary but used all the colors in the game

[true mantle]

@lucid summit I found your discord 😈

We built this map

[lucid summit]

incase there’s any confusion, it has no order, that just shows which buttons have been pressed

[lucid summit]

Is this map why you entered this suggestion?

[true mantle]

yeah cause we were only able to make one room😔

[true mantle]

Replying to this so Nathan doesn’t miss it

[vernal knot]

ah well ig that's just the cost of using entirely wireless connections instead of direct pathing

why are you using one color into another color though

[lucid summit]

It’s a one time button i’ll try to get a video to explain better

Nathan, do you have any ideas for a solution to this problem

[vernal knot]

just replace any usage of a button with a path

?

or move the bomb

so that it's used directly in the path

you should basically never need to use two colors in a given wire

[lucid summit]

Yeah but then we could just press the same button multiple times to win

or am I reading your message wrong

[vernal knot]

I'm just saying that if you're trying to connect a button to some sort of element

just move this bomb contraption so that it's directly in the path of the icicle

I can't really show it easily

but think of it this way

[lucid summit]

I think I understand

[vernal knot]

if a party button is only activating a single confetti cannon

it's replaceable with just making a line of confetti cannons between those two points

and then instead of having that full line, just move the first confetti cannon close to where you want it to end

[lucid summit]

i’ll try to get a screenshot or video and send it to see if i’m understanding right

the video lagged lemme get another one

[vernal knot]

yeah exactly

and then if you wanted to make the delay shorter, just move the blue cannon closer to the icicle

[glacial wasp]

oh its a timer

sick

[lucid summit]

Thank you

The issue I find witht his and my build is that there is not a good way to do input, when the button arrived and had a limit of 16 then it was best used as input, do you think you could make a block that works as a nice input?

[vernal knot]

eventually when we do proper wiring we'll have more options, but I feel like 32 is still plenty of inputs

[weak bolt]

We are still limited by colors though.

What exactly makes the party button lag in large numbers?

[vernal knot]

buttons in general apparently are not super performant

according to jack anyways

so having a bunch of buttons potentially causes trouble

[weak bolt]

ah, do you think you could make neon noteblocks trigger nearby blocks like icicles and bombs?

[vernal knot]

eh, as I said we'll just do it properly in the future

with a proper system

[weak bolt]

👍

[weak bolt]

I noticed there is not a limit on the amount of ||stuffed cannons|| in the newest lab, despite that fact they have buttons. Could this mean you increase the amount of party buttons in maps?

[vernal knot]

There is supposed to be a limit on the stuffed cannons

[weak bolt]

How high is it? I placed like 64 and gave up.

[weak bolt]

Its at 64 and I experienced almost no lag, can you please try to experiment with a higher limit?

[vernal knot]

up to jack really

[weak bolt]

Can I ping him for this?

[harsh star]

If you remove the limit, do you think you could fix the issue where if there are more a few confetti cannons running at once, others might skip launching

It kinda breaks cannon loops

This is on live btw
