terraria-creations

[rugged wedge]

truth

now let me place the jellyfish you get from fishing

i want an ambient lightsource for water that isnt just like jellyfish blocks

[near mango]

hey i suggested that

Ultimately we'll see if it goes anywhere, may not be a thing for hotfixes for 1.4.5 but possibly a later day as it'd be a very nice addition 😛

You're proving my point in the doc too, that builders want ambient critters like this in aquatic builds

[rugged wedge]

this is why i updated the light sources page (just added the blocks but no other info )

[near mango]

my specific comments in the doc is that while the jellyfish jars are neat & good for lighting, them being restricted in just the jars can make them a bit awkward to work with (+ look a little awkward in some cases)

e.g

[rugged wedge]

kinda looks like bubbles

[near mango]

relatively, which makes them not terrible but

[rugged wedge]

which is what happens when you place a land critter in water

or a water critter on land

[near mango]

i'd still ultimately like ones that can roam

or well "roam"

[rugged wedge]

i like the use of fragment blocks for coral

and lighting

[near mango]

ye

fragment blocks are one of my go-tos for stuff like this

they also paint quite nicely

plus, i also really like reef block

[rugged wedge]

building outside of journey is so restictive i hate it

[near mango]

coralstone was fine (namely after the touched up sprite), but for a bit more colour, reef is fantastic

plus good texture too

[near mango]

kind of why i don't do so

i purely build on a server & with 1.4.5 stuff, in journey

i don't even want to think about banner obtainability for builds in regular worlds

[rugged wedge]

just because of how far in the game some of the useful stuff is

[near mango]

angry dandelion banner in particular

[rugged wedge]

like echo

tho thats good now

[near mango]

yea

echo coating being moved much earlier is great

[rugged wedge]

and you can do this

early game echo walls

[near mango]

plus echo coating is also my first short to do quite well too so i am quite happy with that

[rugged wedge]

that lamp post is nice

[near mango]

ye

it's a simple trick i use

[rugged wedge]

i knew everything else but def good tips

[near mango]

yeah

it is just general build tip stuff, nothing too specific

like even the lamp post i don't exactly do my designs in full

just simply the fact you can make the regular lamp post slightly better

[spring kiln]

Are there content creators that are rivals

[vocal marsh]

guys hear me out should i mine my whole world out to make a floaty world?

[rugged wedge]

i mean, they added skyblock so if you really want one without the effort you could do that

[vocal marsh]

i wanna do it with effort so i can hoarde all my blocks

[rugged wedge]

i dont really think so, if there is then its just a little gag probably

[vocal marsh]

i like hoarding for some reason

[rugged wedge]

i mean, its kinda up to you

[near mango]

said design looks more like this

[vocal marsh]

i think its cool

[near mango]

or variations

[vocal marsh]

then again im a noob when i build

[near mango]

point is having a bit more to the bottom of the lamp posts with columns or fences

[spring kiln]

There's no noob when it comes to building

[near mango]

as the regular lamp post is quite thin on it's own

[vocal marsh]

ty

[near mango]

also hm i notice water isn't saving correctly again for 4 sloped tiles

oh well too lazy to fix for a new pic

[spring kiln]

I thought those were players 😭

[near mango]

the mannequins? nop

[spring kiln]

Yea

[near mango]

just 1.4.5 additions with mounts & posing

great additions

[spring kiln]

I thought they were players but then I saw only just brown color

[vocal marsh]

if i was on pc i would make the most killer shi fr fr i just suck with switch lmao

[spring kiln]

Yeayea

[rugged wedge]

i dont wanna use a male character model but i hate that the female model has smaller legs and that the sleeves are cut off

also i wanna try to make some more vanities

[near mango]

the interesting thing with mannequins on mounts; animated mounts like the black spot or cute fishron are static, however digging molecart is animated

there might be other examples but this is the one i noticed

[rugged wedge]

how do you come up with some of the ideas you do 😭

[near mango]

what about them?

[rugged wedge]

like if i knew the ideas you use i could probably implement them in builds

but i could never come up with any of them

[spring kiln]

The mole cart is like a cushion

[near mango]

Well I've kind of just been building since last decade, so naturally I have quite a refined style of how my ideas come together

Plus I look at builds at more than just builds in some cases

Worldbuilding being involved for some cases, or giving a sense of exploration

But it really varies from piece to piece

[rugged wedge]

the only like idea that i did on my own is custom gem trees

[near mango]

Mannequins are something in particular I've been using to help my builds feel more "alive" ever since 1.4

& they just keep improving them, which is great

[rugged wedge]

also these chains, these were fun to do

[near mango]

When they added Minecart functionality to Mannequins in one of the 1.4.5 hotfixes I immediately jumped to make these

[rugged wedge]

they werent too hard, def just tedious

[near mango]

Giant custom chains are a staple for connecting planetoids, not something I do, but rather something I'm well familiar with seeing from 1.3

[rugged wedge]

youve probably seen this build i did but this is my best example of a custom gem tree

and its not even that special, just a normal tree without leaves

[near mango]

Solid, my only comment is that I feel regular living wood's texture doesn't quite match gem trees as much. Would recommend another stone-like texture or just more stone & living mahogany

That is just my opinion though ofc, still looks great

Living mahogany is very underrated for stone mixes & as you can see with the minecart example, I use it quite a bit

It has a very nice texture for stone mixes overall

[rugged wedge]

taken from khaios, bubblegum block is decent for some dirt mixing

[near mango]

Bubblegum is a solid one, yes

Spider nest also works solid, but can be a bit light

[rugged wedge]

yeah, that was the other one he mentioned, couldnt remember

[near mango]

Boulder obviously is a good new addition, but best to be a bit sparing with it

[rugged wedge]

yeah

someone said, once you see the boulder texture you used too much

probably you

[near mango]

yea

[rugged wedge]

do you have an example of any lunar fragment bricks being used?

[near mango]

1 moment

[rugged wedge]

never seen any build use them

these ones

[shell violet]

Boulder is good cause it’s rounded which is relatively uncommon

[near mango]

stardust i haven't touched

same with nebula

however solar & vortex i have

moreso solar

solar used here with gray paint, radio thing full moon morning lighting in a blizzard to dampen the warm lighting #terraria-creations message

[rugged wedge]

bringing out a mtg reference again, i could see them being somewhat decent for a birthing pod design

i was not expecting the pic to be that big

[near mango]

solar also works good in a hive mix with hive & fragment block

plus, the warm lighting is a benefit here

[rugged wedge]

looks like retro monolith without the monolith

[near mango]

radio thing goes a long way & is the best monolith 👍

[rugged wedge]

ive never seen it actually

thought it would be more warm

[near mango]

well that is the thing, full moon lighting

[rugged wedge]

i guess its also the dont stave monolith

but i also have like 25 minutes in dont starve

[spring kiln]

Now this just looks like a sauna

[near mango]

that is radio thing, yes

examples of radio thing's lighting outside of a full moon

much more warm, much harsher

[rugged wedge]

off topic and if you dont mind me asking, where do you get your like overall ideas for builds from?

[near mango]

vs again full moon lighting

[near mango]

uh

it's complicated to really describe how my brain functions, but i constantly have ideas flowing basically nearly at all times

[rugged wedge]

mmmm

[near mango]

random ideas, inspirations from media, certain music i want to build to, etc

[rugged wedge]

i think thats normal

not that i have that afaik

[near mango]

specific stuff i want to practice, try out, etc

[near mango]

tl:dr

• harsher warmer regular lighting outside of full moon great for well, more harsh environments. examples such as desert builds, crimson, etc
• full moon lighting much colder, more tranquil, great for builds like in the snow biome, ocean, etc

all depends on the kind of environment you're using it for

it can go a long way

i eventually will be doing a whole video explaining radio thing in depth, but that won't be for a good few months

[rugged wedge]

so like core vs chapter 4 in celeste

i cant remember the name of chapter 4

[near mango]

golden ridge

[rugged wedge]

aha

[near mango]

here is the examples of what radio thing is referencing from dst

thanks to, random google images

for regular vs full moon

[rugged wedge]

it would be nice if i understood how my brain works 😓

[near mango]

then from there, time of day also is a major impact. as obviously the pillars pic here looks much brighter than the firewatch tower

same applies to full moon lighting, it becomes much softer cold kind of lighting in the morning compared to early to middle of the night

in which it is more akin to this

[near mango]

Everyone probably would want to be able to understand their brain in full, at least in some sense

[rugged wedge]

i like have a stream of thoughts but i cant hear anything still idk

[crude pagoda]

Question, uh what did you use to get this type of vibes

[near mango]

radio thing with full moon lighting

[crude pagoda]

Ohh thanks

[near mango]

i forget exactly what time of day, possibly around 9:00?

relatively around there

[rugged wedge]

but my brain still feels like crowded often

[near mango]

was correct in my assumption

[crude pagoda]

Its actually pretty to look at

[near mango]

precisely why I adore radio thing lighting so much & am the #1 fan for it

to the point of @'ing Red on Bsky about getting a placed version added, which was in fact added in 1.4.5

albeit me & Red have talked before (& still do) it was one I really wanted to get out there lol

[radiant loom]

thats a cute bathroom

[rugged wedge]

like i havent tried this out but seeing the spikes reminded me. i had the idea to use negative painted spikes as stars

[near mango]

2nd one i've ever built & a much larger one, thanks

[sand kindle]

Does anyone have a good reference for creating a spiral shape?

[rugged wedge]

youd probably be better at applying this than i would be

[near mango]

mmmmm using spikes like that isn't really what I do

as I use spikes for parkour usage mostly, in which I have a very specific shaping style

[near mango]

this here has one example of it, let me grab another

another 2 rather

[radiant loom]

about to do my first castle build 😬

[rugged wedge]

i didnt even think thatd be a parkour thing at first

[near mango]

also this (1st image) makes a good example of a darker stone mix, i was going to talk about it earlier

[near mango]

Spikes are fantastic for parkour usage

How you place them for mapmaking, matters a lot

namely for the leniency of the map's gameplay & how polished it feels

[rugged wedge]

i have some parkour map experience OUTSIDE of penguin

which is why i asked you if your maps were available anywhere outside of penguin

[near mango]

well no, they really shouldn't be unless someone used a modified client to take them off the server

[crude pagoda]

I have to learn parkour cause some maps in DGZ just have goofy ahh obstacles to get an item

[near mango]

I manage Parkour on PG & it has been my main hobby for the past 6y now

Which from that & the help of our Developers coding features for it, it has become our most expansive gamemode & probably the most dedicated Parkour community for Terraria as a whole

[near mango]

Which this again loops back to my whole point about some parts of my builds having worldbuilding involved, or the sense of exploration to traverse. By nature of Parkour maps being, maps you play with different movement tech involved

If it wasn't for Parkour building being an interest of mine, I wouldn't be where I am now as a builder if one at all

[rugged wedge]

one of my friends made this but i did play it

[near mango]

Hook map?

[rugged wedge]

this is from like early 1.4

you got uhh

soc, emerald hook, and fart in a jar and thats it

[near mango]

certainly a map
with movement

that is about my thoughts looking at it lol

[rugged wedge]

me and my friends got into trying out terraria parkour bc of celeste

and we had no reference besides celeste

[near mango]

There is plenty of overlap yea

Some of our mapmakers have actually made modded celeste maps of relative popularity

[crude pagoda]

Graveyard monolith 😍

[rugged wedge]

theres more maps that this as well

[near mango]

some examples being Dusk City by Meario, Everlasting Farewell, Calypta & Midnight Monsoon by Luma, Mount Vesuvius by Yoshachobi7, etc

Dusk City & Midnight Monsoon both being Strawberry Jam maps of course

[near mango]

Eventually I do plan to make some full Celeste maps of my own, I have attempted many times over the years, but I just haven't quite got to where I want as a creative in that space to put maps out yet

This also applies to many other creative forms with games, such as making custom Lethal Company moons, mod ideas for TModloader, etc. If there is some way I can interact with a game to create, I'm probably in some form interested

BTD6 I have one map editor level I'm quite proud of, then another WIP that has been sitting around for quite some time to finish still, but happy with so far. Point is I just like creating things as it is one of my favourite parts of games

[rugged wedge]

also this one, theres still more examples 😭

[crude pagoda]

Why does it look like an intestine

[rugged wedge]

i would love to be more into creating for various games but i like terraria too much tbh

[crude pagoda]

No offence

[rugged wedge]

i didnt make it

[near mango]

This one probably sparks a worse reaction than the other one

[rugged wedge]

i dont remember the right or leftmost ones but i remember the others

[rugged wedge]

that one was kinda hell to complete

[crude pagoda]

Is ur friend like intestine fan or something

[near mango]

Ok now to actually comment on it for a moment. A lot of builders "new" to making parkour, will often make layouts like that

[rugged wedge]

i think they just drew with tedit

[near mango]

Lots of open room, spikes covering the edges like that without much thought exactly

Lots of tunnel-like shapes

But once you start to get better at building, naturally your structuring will be more refined

You won't be making as excessively large layouts

[rugged wedge]

these were all made before i got into building so i had no reference of good and bad really

[crude pagoda]

Baby steps they say

[near mango]

Obviously some forms of movement do still benefit from this style of layout

Such as a dash alongside rocket boots

But the forms of movement that benefit from large tunnel layouts aren't nearly as popular

[rugged wedge]

this doesnt even seem possible to make idk what they were cooking

[near mango]

Depends on the movement

[rugged wedge]

fart in a jar, soc, and emerald hook

[near mango]

If a hook is involved, it would be quite easy to make happen

Then yeah that isn't an issue whatsoever

[rugged wedge]

i guess "cheesing" it wouldnt be too hard

[near mango]

If anything, how open it is just makes it easier for a hook, not even to mention the dash & very good double jump

[crude pagoda]

Yeah i think thats doable with a hook and double jump

A block that prevents hooks to attach on

Hmmmm

[near mango]

shimmer 👍

[rugged wedge]

oh yeah

shimmer-log a block

[crude pagoda]

Ohhhh

[near mango]

it also has a fun interaction immediately bouncing you with anti-gravity hook by nature of how that hook works

"Kelp" is an example of a map of mine that is a small & refined hook layout even if it is for a beginner by being incredibly easy

Which from there you can kind of see how open hook gameplay can be, even if it is just the regular grappling hook

[radiant loom]

hook parkour with dash and cloud in a bottle is really fun when theres only spikes to hook on to

[near mango]

while fun, it can certainly be harder to balance

more refined & restricted movement can certainly help balance gameplay's difficulty a lot more

which then can lead to less repetitive & more meaningful gameplay as well. rather than just doing the same stuff over & over again, there can be so much more depth

[rugged wedge]

side thing, i have a cyberpunk city im "making" (havent touched it in a while) and would like some guidance 😓

i only have the layout currently which sucks

[crude pagoda]

Is this like those famous Facebook post where like,
Which one will fill first

Or something

[rugged wedge]

i dont think im online enough to get that 😔

[crude pagoda]

My fault

[lament briar]

Does it have rooms inside or is it just a display city?

[rugged wedge]

i have this little bunny thing i made tho that greets you when you enter at least

[rugged wedge]

itll likely just be a display city

this is a server so i cant really keep npcs

[lament briar]

Well, if you're doing cyber-punk, you'll want to figure out how much of nature you'll incorporate...

Some people feel like you'll be 50%/50%, others feel like nature will be absent... But I think you'll like the equipment in this.

[rugged wedge]

im not even really happy with the layout tbh 😓

[lament briar]

Keep it as it is until you figure out where you wanna start. 😊

[near mango]

will comment this leans more solarpunk than cyberpunk per say, just the distinction between the styles. but yes nature can still be plenty incorporated into cyberpunk builds

well not that it leans more solarpunk, rather this is solarpunk

[near mango]

As a layout it is plenty solid for a smaller cyberpunk build, as a lot of the cyberpunk style is to clutter buildings together. but it can be quite overwhelming to try & learn

[rugged wedge]

i also kinda need a way to distinguish between certain builds with them being so similar

[near mango]

yeah that is the other thing

cyberpunk leans very dark palette wise

so it really comes down to how you decorate each building to help distinguish them

i will note that cyberpunk is where you get most usage out of negative paint, that is for sure

the amount of bizarre neon colours you can get work really well

[rugged wedge]

one of ebsiffers builds from tewwawia season 1 that he didnt finish 😭

[near mango]

for example, my bestie literally used negative painted ducky wallpaper for a cyberpunk build & it worked fantastic where she used it

so like the point is; if some blocks, walls or furniture interest you to try out with some wacky colours, chances are cyberpunk as a style is the perfect place

[rugged wedge]

i see

[near mango]

ye

cyberpunk as a style is the best excuse to use a lot of bizarre negative paint combinations

[rugged wedge]

im not that creative

[radiant loom]

gemspark and bubble block are carrying

[near mango]

try things out, the list of blocks & walls are your oyster

[near mango]

cyberpunk is definitely where gemspark blocks also see most of their use for sure yea

they work really well

[rugged wedge]

i do have every block in a world so i could see them painted i guess

i still kinda wanna pivot to a solarpunk tho

i feel like that design doesnt fit well with that idea

[lament briar]

What about this one @near mango ?

[near mango]

well yeah, that falls under cyberpunk

[lament briar]

You can have one or two builds that have "natural" technology.

[rugged wedge]

i’m also limited with blocks

bc were only pre plant rn

so none of the like “tech” blocks

[lament briar]

The problem is, "convenience" is going to win over natural methods.

[near mango]

just the point about the last example was that what was shown is specifically solarpunk rather than cyberpunk given how it is a build focused on the natural energy sources worked in with nature such as solar panels & wind turbines. which are a staple for solarpunk

plus the overall composition of the build being much brighter, more colourful

those are the major distinctions

[lament briar]

What might help you with building and organizing thoughts is that every cyberpunk city has an energy source.

It doesn't have to "connect" to each location, but it has to connect in the sense that, every part of the city obtains a piece of that energy to run.

[rugged wedge]

my main idea was that i was gonna go for a cyberpunk 2077 kinda style

[lament briar]

The picture I included, clearly, shouldn't be utilizing Vortex pillar technology, but in this economy, I mean...

5 to 7 bunnies every third day, or an unruly NPC, is it really that bad lol?

[lament briar]

Can you use asphalt lol?

[rugged wedge]

i def cant be using a vortex pillar for an energy source (pre plant)

[lament briar]

It's a reference Sour.

It's to shape an idea.

[rugged wedge]

the only thing thats "done" is this little overpass

[near mango]

Just to make another comment on the "Punk" styles as a whole, they are fantastic for worldbuilding which is something I have mentioned a few times now. The kinds of concepts that go into the builds with these styles goes a long way. Like the kinds of energy sources for a cyberpunk build, what lead these styles of cities to be where they are in the first place, their sustainability methods, etc.

[rugged wedge]

would love to worldbuild but this is next to me

[lament briar]

So this one uses glass.

I'm guessing refracted light?

[near mango]

Well I don't exactly mean worldbuild in the sense of making a whole world, but the concept & thought process behind builds. You can have purely separate builds in different worlds from each other that still connect & worldbuild by concept

[lament briar]

I don't know lol... But it's nice, it's coherent... I know it's probably more solar punk than cyberpunk.

[lament briar]

Agreed.

[near mango]

Just the kinds of creative stories or ideas, even if small, can help elevate a build conceptually

The process, the reason for why you chose to make it, etc

[lament briar]

I don't even know what this thing is.

To me, it's a test of patience, like Jenga... This would be the only one of us kind of I built it, but it clearly means something to the creator.

[rugged wedge]

once more im plagued with my eternal mental block

like all great ideas but i have no clue how to implement anything

[lament briar]

But it uses something simple like the silly balloon and says, "This is actually an energy source that can rip open the earth and summon every single enemy from the game at once."

[slow dew]

100% this, I'm always asking myself these types of questions when I'm making a build. I recently did a jungle pylon build and the story that I made in my head is that it's a reclaimed lihzard temple lost to time, dryad came in and made it her home and that kinda helped me set the palette, lay out a theme, and set the boundaries a bit. I kept asking myself, "well why would this work if this is the plot?" and I would reset the room and change it until I was happy with what fit my story

[lament briar]

Sour, why does that specific picture stand out to you?

The one that you'd like to use as inspiration?

[rugged wedge]

well i mostly chose it bc it was the best pic of what i envision when i think og cyberpunk 2077

but id say the biggest thing besides that is how almost dystopian it feels

like giant billboards plastered everywhere

its so full of life yet so lifeless

so full of color but still lacking in color

[slow dew]

okay, dystopian is a good word, so what I'd go off that is the mood is going to be dark, the only thing bright in the build is going to be the neon signs

[rugged wedge]

i currently have the mushroom biome to darken the vibe as well

[slow dew]

ye that's good

[lament briar]

Here are some color ideas...

You're a master with paint, so similar wall backgrounds with the same color may yield similar results, right?

[dense sparrow]

did somebody say solarpunk?? (sorry I will use any excuse to repost this)

[radiant loom]

beautiful

dibs on the house on the left

[lament briar]

I always love this lol.

How did you do the globe?

[dense sparrow]

thanks both :)

its thin ice and glass walls, stained glass walls too

[lament briar]

Those should be easy items to find in pre-Hardmode.

This is the only other thing I could find...

Not mine but the way...

[rugged wedge]

im a master at paint?!

[lament briar]

You have all of those charts, right?

[rugged wedge]

i have just all the blocks in a world

no walls

[lament briar]

The ones with the blocks and the yield effects?

[rugged wedge]

so i can paint them

tho i should probably get a version of every one painted

for quick access

[karmic blaze]

very neon

[lament briar]

Just jump in!

I'll be back later... Ciao!

[cerulean sinew]

npc housing, jungle, Aether (Caverns) and tundra

!!uses calamity items in mechanic's room and doors in aether house!!

[sand kindle]

Mushroom-covered Dragon Skull Cave. The horn spiral isn't great, but I did my best.

[radiant loom]

i love dragon builds

[rugged wedge]

i wonder why

[sand kindle]

'Cause Dragons are cool, duh 😛

[rugged wedge]

gif?

[radiant loom]

nooo why is my gif automodded...

[rugged wedge]

gifs dont send here

[radiant loom]

oh

[rugged wedge]

idk why

[radiant loom]

😔

[radiant loom]

when i first saw this my brain was screaming modded and i couldnt find a reason why

[rugged wedge]

princess is a fire npc

way better than that damn angler

[radiant loom]

cant agree

shimmered angler is a great decoration

*critter

[sand kindle]

I have no idea even how to mod XD

TBH I just googled "Terraria Dragon" and got roughly the shape of the jaw.

Add some living fire for the eye and nostril, and bada bing, dragon.

Bad spiral and all.

[radiant loom]

lol nah your fine

[sand kindle]

Added a little bedroom in the back.

[rugged wedge]

id say youd want to make the horn wider

[sand kindle]

Fair

[radiant loom]

i looked up "terraria mosque" "terraria desert town" "terraria jungle town" "terraria sand castle" today

trying to make a desert city

just fishing for ideas LOL

[rugged wedge]

im surprised there isnt a noteblock mod yet

[vocal marsh]

chat dead?

[rugged wedge]

yeah

[vocal marsh]

night homie's

[rugged wedge]

usually this chat is pretty slow

[vocal marsh]

yep

good night GNG

[lament briar]

I'm here!

[rugged wedge]

[lament briar]

Hi.

Have you drawn any inspiration?

[rugged wedge]

i havent done anything 🙊

im dying with mental block

[lament briar]

I was thinking about your situation though...

You aren't going to be fully creative if you don't have access to all the blocks.

[rugged wedge]

while i havent done anything, i did random search on magic the gathering cards and saw this which is kinda cool

[lament briar]

Hmm...

[rugged wedge]

cant really be creative rn because i cant think of anything anyway

[lament briar]

I need to find the other one...

Give me a moment lol.

[timid tiger]

solarpunk is just cottagecore cyberpunk

change my mind

[rugged wedge]

uhhh

i mean

kinda but also not really

[timid tiger]

how so?

[rugged wedge]

i dont have a reason to why not

[timid tiger]

it takes place in the future

its dominated by green corps

its all green and bloom and everything happy

and clean

though tbh I find it quite unrealistic for its overoptimism because of how irl green policies work

no surprise I rarely see it in mainstream fiction, opposed to the other punk genres

[rugged wedge]

i dont think its supposed to be realistic

[timid tiger]

duh it's a fictional genre, still they are anchored to reality for it to be believable

among the punk genres, I find solarpunk & biopunk to be the most unrealistic

[rugged wedge]

i never heard of solarpunk until the other day

[lament briar]

@rugged wedge, what do you think about these two?

[rugged wedge]

only cyberpunk

[lament briar]

And I've actually never heard of cottagecore.

[rugged wedge]

[timid tiger]

dang are you new to the internet?

[rugged wedge]

idk, not bad i feel like they would def benfit from new blocks, mostly librarian

[mint imp]

How tf

[mint imp]

I mean, punk genres outside of cyberpunk are pretty rare in general

When was the last mainstream steam punk thing?

Wild wild west?

[lament briar]

So, what happened was, I took all my points, and put them into skills that I already had...

But I've never really went out and put any more points into anything new.

[radiant loom]

rip

[lament briar]

Cottagecore sounds like you're leaning hard into being Amish and barn-raising lol.

[radiant loom]

i would love to do that

in real life of course

[lament briar]

Yeah yeah yeah... I can admit to not knowing something lol.

[lament briar]

Of course.

[radiant loom]

id rather grow up in a barn than an apartment 🤪

[radiant loom]

youre fine lol, its a fun building style

[lament briar]

Lifting a skeletal barn and running across the fields before setting it down with thirty other guys.

#That'sTheDream.

[lament briar]

That movie was so so.

I had to watch it again.

I swear when I watched it when I was younger, it was Will Smith and Robin Williams.

Anyways.

Which library matches that image you sent Sour?

[lament briar]

Also, we have the same profile effect lol.

[lament briar]

... And no.

[rugged wedge]

sorry, working on taking pics of every block painted, more just doing something

id say the one on the left tbh

[lament briar]

You don't like the huge clock room?

[rugged wedge]

for a grand library the other one makes more sense

[lament briar]

With the flooding?

Something about a sunken library is... Alluring.

[timid tiger]

technically yes youre correct

cottagecore is essentially the rural lifestyle

living in a cottage

[rugged wedge]

my internet is so bad today

[timid tiger]

away from civilization and the often noisy, crime-ridden, stressful cities

[timid tiger]

dont expect any of the books to remain legible after being in water though

[rugged wedge]

i tried sending the original card from magic but it got automodded

so if you wanna see it, its "Waterlogged Teachings//Inundated Archive"

[rugged wedge]

trying to make this a google drive but i need to remove my deadname

im too lazy to change my emails

will it send
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1kxvobH6LyNGSrjOqjH1RQN07wyw5k1W1?usp=sharing

yay

theres every block painted every color

its missing magical ice and poo is in the wrong spot but idc

i finished all of the pics when i realized the mistake and didnt wanna go back to change it

[spring kiln]

Is @glossy sail here

[glossy sail]

Yeah in bed

I have to get ready for school which i really dont wanna do

[crude pagoda]

Same

[vagrant steeple]

despite its 1st trial run, its working okayish

164 gnomes in 1 day is pretty alright

[rugged wedge]

ok but i like mine bc its pre boss

but that sure does work

[fair scarab]

damn that's pretty good, do the effects of gnomes on luck stack or is this farm just for fun?

[vagrant steeple]

yes

[rugged wedge]

dont stack

but they can sell for a good amount

[vagrant steeple]

wait, do u mean the gnome statues or, luck increasing gnome spawns?

if gnome statues, no, their luck doesnt stack

[rugged wedge]

164 would sell for like 2 plat roughly

[vagrant steeple]

but luck increases rare mobs spawns and gnomes are considered rare

also, the reason I built the gnome farm is for money

[fair scarab]

luck how placing a petrified gnome increase your overall luck

[vagrant steeple]

I need likely 300 plat coins worth of dynamite for... something

[vagrant steeple]

maybe add in a couple thousand wires too, idk

[rugged wedge]

that seems overkill

[vagrant steeple]

and maybe, just maybe, a lever

[vagrant steeple]

nahhh

[rugged wedge]

i got like 5k dynamite and only used about 2k on a mob farm and a hole from top to bottom thats a whole screen wide in a large world

[vagrant steeple]

okay, maybe its a little overkill

but

its prep

for actual world building

its for lore

cuz my characters name is Samael

[rugged wedge]

you would need like 65x that for a large world roughly

[vagrant steeple]

ah but throwing them is boring

I wanna do it Tony Stark style

trust the process

it is absolutely necessary

[rugged wedge]

any rocket launcher would be better anyway

[vagrant steeple]

phm

[rugged wedge]

holy shit

i did the math

you would really need 280 plat worth without happiness

[vagrant steeple]

holy fck I am right

I kinda just eyeballed the total amount cuz I wasnt sure

but thanks for the clarifications

[rugged wedge]

youd need roughly 140000 dynamite to clear a world (leaving margin for error). each dynamite is 20 silver, thats 2800000 silver or 280 plat

[hybrid sentinel]

I'm looking to do a graveyard build in pre hard mode. Anyone got any ideas?

[rugged wedge]

you could easily get him to 89% happiness tho pre boss so thats more like 250

[vagrant steeple]

the plants vs zombied graveyard

[rugged wedge]

and max happiness would be 210 plat

[vagrant steeple]

how bout if using explosives?

[rugged wedge]

idk, i only know how much you need to clear a screen size hole with dynamite bc ive done it

[vagrant steeple]

so Ig Id need 420 plat for 2 screen lengths

[rugged wedge]

no

thats for the whole world

[vagrant steeple]

ah

damn

[rugged wedge]

you need close to 2k for one screen width

or for 120 across

[vagrant steeple]

I could probably need less cuz my phone has lesser resolution than ur laptop

or pc

[rugged wedge]

so youd need 6 plat it seems

maybe 7 for margin of error

[vagrant steeple]

thats good

[rugged wedge]

6.25 +/- 0.75 platinum coins

it seems explosives are less efficent than dynamite technically

dynamite breaks 177 blocks at max and explosives break 314 at max

156 blocks* but still more efficent

bc explosives take 3 dynamite

[merry elm]

hey, could i get some building advice/help? ive been having artists block on how i should do my jungle village

specifically, a shaft i have down to my plantera/bee queen arena

like...for my hellivator im planning on doing a crane with a rope down, but i dont know what to do to fit a jungle/natural vibe

i wanna improve at building, make stuff i can be proud of and looks nice, but even the most basic stuff i feel overwhelmed with options and not having enough at the same time

[rugged wedge]

i know you mentioned artists block but do you have any like rough idea of what youre going for possibly

and is it just a small 3 wide tunnel from digtoise

[merry elm]

its 5 wide, could carve it out more and give it more rough texture

i had an idea, like it being an ancient temple opening or ancient well

that or an excavation shaft

and for the rest of the village, i was thinking a more natural vibe built around each of the NPC's. Of course im going with the standard dryad + witchdoctor + painter combo, i guess the painter would have a more recently built/normal looking house while the dryad and/or witchdoctor would live in huts, or in the side of a hill we have...

there's also a nice spot to put a pylon...lemme grab my land

[rugged wedge]

not purposfully trying to overload you but this could help picking out blocks if you go for that

[merry elm]

this does help a lot

[rugged wedge]

pinterest or just google could also help for some help too

[merry elm]

ive been assembling a collage/idea board, but a shaft is something hard to make look good...

this is my general building area

the others in my group insisted on having the shaft

and that little raised platform between the 2 cave entrances is where i plan on putting the pylon

i guess there's also the thing of making sure they're all close enough to each other to count

[rugged wedge]

im going to bed real soon so i cant help with blocks from this but im sure other people will be able to help still

also, it follows the blocks wiki page image decently as well so you can reference that possibly for all of the pre 1.4.5 blocks]

like i keptt the general order of the blocks and the rough categories

[merry elm]

thanks, i guess im struggling with a good idea for the outlines of these things

[rugged wedge]

my idea would just be like a well that leads down to whatever

[merry elm]

like...i did have 2 ideas, mostly stemming around this sort of vibe

or like this, but miniturized

what do you think?

[rugged wedge]

kind what’s was envisioning when you said temple

kinda what i was*

yikes i’m tired

[merry elm]

yeah, maybe i should come back here in the morning

[rugged wedge]

you can stay, i won’t be

[merry elm]

but yeah, the idea of it being an ancient, dried up well

[rugged wedge]

also idk when someone else is getting on

[merry elm]

also...god 25 blocks is tiny, i may need to compress things down more

[rugged wedge]

also here’s every block but black

in case you want a darker look

i like when the bricks i use in jungle builds are darker

[merry elm]

im also limited in my block pallet due to pre hardmode

[merry elm]

hmmm...could get darker the deeper it goes in, until it gives way to nature

[rugged wedge]

iirc, this build doesnt use any hardmode blocks i dont think
#terraria-creations message

[merry elm]

oooo nice

the other issue i have is...well, the guys on my sserver want the drop to be "safe" from things like bees, so making the shaft go all the way down as a tube...

[rugged wedge]

if you’re post skeletron you can get echo coating

[rugged wedge]

it’ll hide the blocks but they’ll still act like a block is there

[fast raven]

Hello

Oh shoot i cant put it here

[rugged wedge]

[merry elm]

huh, fair, but i guess a part of me feels like thats cheating

[rugged wedge]

#terrarian-role-info

[merry elm]

yeah, you gotta be around for a bit

plus would get confusing when running away from stuff and hitting an invisible wall

[fast raven]

Oh i see

[rugged wedge]

you do you, i was pretty much giving an easy way out

[merry elm]

the other idea i had was making just a reeeaaallllly deep tree

[rugged wedge]

larger trees are a little hard to build and have them look like a tree rather than a wood tunnel

[merry elm]

yeah...

[rugged wedge]

there’s another word but it’s a little strange and would make the sentence a little phallic…

i mean, since it’s underground you won’t really see the whole tree anyway so it could work out

[fast raven]

So guys, im just going to describe it, i built a castle and has a 2 separate entrance room (i alr have dining and hall stuff) any idea on what should i put to it?

Im running out of ideas actually

[rugged wedge]

i think it would be easier if i saw it, could you dm it to me and i’ll repost it here

[fast raven]

Okay

[rugged wedge]

and steal it

[fast raven]

Oh

There u go

[rugged wedge]

i won’t steal it

[fast raven]

Its fine u can do whatever u want man

Idk what to put to those empty rooms

[rugged wedge]

so like the 2 right and left ones

[fast raven]

Yep

[rugged wedge]

a simple potted tree could be nice

[fast raven]

Potted tree? Wait a sec idk that was a thing lol

[rugged wedge]

i’d say just some plantlife whether it’s a potted tree, planter boxes, etc.

[paper sundial]

anyone got tips on how to decorate this building? also, if yall got any other tips or stuff i could change on the building itself that'd be great 😄

https://imgur.com/a/wrhsERx

[young bridge]

You could use different chandeliers or more for lighting, candelabras on platforms work too
Also, everything in here is considered a table for housing purposes, you can be very flexible with room designs that include housing

[spring kiln]

Use sink

[young bridge]

There's also potted trees, pots, planter boxes, placable healing and mana potions, paintings, dye plants, plates + food item

The rubblemaker and portable kiln can also help make some decor

[latent cave]

Love that

[crude pagoda]

Bathtub my favourite table

[rapid coyote]

how do i add a picture🥺

[cinder vortex]

#terrarian-role-info while you wait for that you can use imgur.com

[rapid coyote]

is this a tuff house?

[cinder vortex]

The lightening ambience is pretty good. It's got a cool castle vibe

[alpine burrow]

[merry elm]

hello, so ive been still thinking about what to do with my builds and i have roughly an idea...im just struggling with some aspects

[frigid dew]

potted trees my beloved🥰

[glossy sail]

genuine question, how do people make 3d stuff like this? do they just paint everything a shade darker and keep on going or what? genuinely shocking

[light zodiac]

AI surely i can barely make a wooden box

lol

[glossy sail]

https://forums.terraria.org/index.php?threads/notsocurseds-build-collection-v2.106261/

2021

Pretty sure ai imaging wasnt around at that time especially not of such quality

[young bridge]

yes and no
paint IS used to make thigns darker, but actuation is also a major part of it, allowing you to make blocks darker without altering their colour
most 3D builds that aren't purely monochrome

[young bridge]

mmmm boulder rain

[lament briar]

How... Did you decide to set up your button configuration like that?

[vagrant steeple]

settings > controls

[lament briar]

No, not "how" lol...

I meant, "why" do you have your configuration set like that?

Like, you have two whip buttons...

[vagrant steeple]

its not for whips

[lament briar]

Your jump is at the bottom of the right side instead of the top of the right side...

[vagrant steeple]

its a use item and interact button

yeah

[lament briar]

For the purpose of the demo, I'm referencing it as a whip button.

[vagrant steeple]

my layout covers 3 things, fight, build, and everything else

its all for convenience

[lament briar]

Yeah... But, like...

Was your finger slipping whenever you were playing?

[vagrant steeple]

no

[lament briar]

I'm just curious as to the setup.

I've never tried that.

I've created a control setting called "Camera Mode"...

It eliminates every button but the direction pad and the jump button, and they're both smaller than default.

[crude pagoda]

One day mobile will get its own camera mode

Trust

[alpine burrow]

yeah they cleverly use either black and gray paint or they use darker blocks

[radiant loom]

[cold dune]

the boulders and the harpies together made me think you were moving to the right at high speed, until i remembered that boulders can roll 😭

also, defensive housing shenanigans

[lyric mountain]

That's cool

[spring kiln]

So we're all playing summoner class right now

[glossy sail]

looking good.. i think..

[spring kiln]

What is that for

A floating island?

[glossy sail]

im gonna add dirt walls in the pillars as a "support"

it might look clearer when i finish building it

just a little fun project

[spring kiln]

Kind of like

Hmhmmh

[glossy sail]

something like this

[spring kiln]

I get it

Keep up the good work

[next fiber]

i built something similar hope this can hlep

[glossy sail]

thats sick

mine isn t at that large of a scale unfortunately

[spring kiln]

You can try to make the land bigger

[glossy sail]

i probably will

make it a bit larger at the top part of the pillar

[spring kiln]

Are you going for like, an underpass on a mountain, or just a floating thing

[glossy sail]

liek a tunnel being worked on under construction idk how to explain it

im gonna add crates and stuff

also maybe some like tiny hut at the top with a rope going down to thje bottom

im honestly just free styling

[spring kiln]

That's one way to improve

Kind of like a mine is being made and a mineshaft at the bottom of it?

[glossy sail]

yes

[spring kiln]

Landscaping it can be a pain

[glossy sail]

mm not quite sure if a hammered part looks better than non hammered

[spring kiln]

You can try to only hammer a few blocks and leave ones as it is

[young bridge]

The top could use more varied terrain tbh
Looks a bit flat

Maybe that'd help

[prisma meadow]

what a struggle to make shape for shape that i'm not used to

[glossy sail]

i want to add foliage but i dont know how to

like grass walls or something

im also gonna plant trees i just dont really have acorns right now

[young bridge]

More foliage would work but i think the terrain could use some work first
No use adding foliage on terrain that looks unnatural

[spring kiln]

Plant trees first

Before leaf walls

[glossy sail]

how do you suggest i change the terrain?

[young bridge]

More hills and bumps, hammered as well

Small snippet from that one build i keep reposting, here's an example
I hardly ever have full blocks without hammered/sloped blocks next to them

[glossy sail]

im horrible at this

[spring kiln]

It's your first time

You don't need to despise yourself, you'll eventually improve:)

[young bridge]

That looks good to be honest

Try to make things asymmetrical

Would help it look more natural
Things, especially foliage, are hardly ever summetrical

[spring kiln]

You can try to watch tutorials on how to landscape, or just place blocks until it looks appealing to you

[glossy sail]

mm i think i prefer how it was before, might opt for a slightly more simplistic look

[young bridge]

Up to you, a build looks the best when you think it looks good

[glossy sail]

true

i really like the like quarter block that happens once you hammer a block once

probably just gonna put a few of those around

[young bridge]

Also as for the foliage, you can use the rubblemaker, goblin tinkerer sells it
As for the other two, the demolitionist sells them.
This is already pinned if you ever need it
#terraria-creations message

Seeds from the dryad always work too

[cerulean sinew]

The windmill would look so much better if u use a bunch of actuators and timers to make it look like its actually spinning

nonetheless amazing tho

[young bridge]

Living leaf walls,

Uhh grass walls also from the dryad

[glossy sail]

i dont have the living leaf wand unfortunately

[spring kiln]

Don't need it

You need a living loom

[glossy sail]

i think im gonna opt for only grass walls and differently painted grass walls

[glossy sail]

ah

[young bridge]

You don't need the wand for living leaf/wood walls
Living loom is for that

[spring kiln]

Shimmer your normal loom

[spring kiln]

To get a living loom

[young bridge]

Or find one in the big living trees

[glossy sail]

arent there many living looms in the trees?

[glossy sail]

ah ok

[spring kiln]

If you don't find one in there

[young bridge]

The shimmering a regular loom into a living one is a fallback option in case your world doesn't have any

[glossy sail]

oh god i only have one living tree in this world

do they only spawn in expert and above? ive never seen one in my classic worlds

[young bridge]

They spawn randomly

Regardless of difficulty

[spring kiln]

Where's the pins at

[young bridge]

Although there is a chance your world won't have any

[glossy sail]

yess lliving loom

[young bridge]

It had one?

[spring kiln]

Do you have access to actuators yet?

[glossy sail]

yes

[glossy sail]

no clue what those are

[young bridge]

Nice

[glossy sail]

oh look

[young bridge]

They're the things that allow you to put blocks in the background

[spring kiln]

Perfect

[young bridge]

Oh sweet

[glossy sail]

is there a way to get mossy stone walls or something?

[spring kiln]

Scrape itt

[young bridge]

You can get moss through using a paint scraper on moss, then i assume you can craft it with stone into mossy stone walls

[spring kiln]

You should use vine walls instead

[young bridge]

The hell's a vine wall?

[spring kiln]

I don't think its called a vine wall but

It's this one

Why did I call it vine wall

🤶

[glossy sail]

im on the wiki and i just eyed this wall

why does everything need ecto mist 😭

[spring kiln]

Ecto mist is a graveyard biome

[glossy sail]

i know

im too lazy to kill ymself

[spring kiln]

Relatable, but I just collect the tombstones

[glossy sail]

arghh i shouldve doen that

[glossy sail]

is there a way to make walls thinner?

[young bridge]

yes

[rugged wedge]

this is also on the wiki

under echo coating

might add it to echo walls as well but idk

or maybe just background walls\

[glossy sail]

ok i found what i wanted in the sawmill

didnt know beams existed

[rugged wedge]

idk why the echo walls add like a border while glass doesnt

kinda hard to notice

[young bridge]

*i should mention beams are generally avoided when using them for their namesake because they take up block space
using fences to create beams while not taking up block space (but taking wall space instead) is a more widely used method

[glossy sail]

ah alr

[rugged wedge]

also ebonwood walls and large bamboo

[young bridge]

i'm not saying theyre bad blocks, theyre very pretty when used right

its just that beams are better used as blocks and not beams

[young bridge]

large bamboo and ash wood ❤️

[rugged wedge]

mmmm ash wood

its like boreal but better

[young bridge]

not necessarily
but most of the time yes

[rugged wedge]

i would say ash wood looks better as like horizontal beams

but id be lying

in some cases

because the hard lines on boreal make it look more like a beam to me

[young bridge]

yeah...

[glossy sail]

living wood looks so similar to dirt

[young bridge]

but for horizontal beams/flooring its amazing

[glossy sail]

i wanted to use it as flooring but i couldnt tell apart dirt and the living wood

[young bridge]

are you sure that's living wood then

[glossy sail]

yes

[rugged wedge]

no i get it

[young bridge]

i don't see it

[glossy sail]

can you tell me where the living wood is and where the dirt is?

the image is sending

why is my internet so shit

700 kb

[young bridge]

yeah

there's 2 blocks of living wood next to the regular wood

that's next to dirt

[glossy sail]

welp

yeah you got it

but im struggling to tell them apart

[rugged wedge]

tbh i wouldnt really notice the difference if i wanst looking for the wood

we need a tick freeze for terraria

i need to take pictures of magical ice block without it breaking

[glossy sail]

should the design inside the house go? looks like im kinda trying too hard

[regal coyote]

chat im cooked, i was cleaning out discords i was apart of to minimize pings and accidently left this one

now i gotta get terrarian back

whenever it happens i do got some builds to post

[rugged wedge]

tragedy

imgur always exists

[regal coyote]

can you post imgur links without the perms?

[rugged wedge]

yeah

fixed up the no paint picture (added in echo and magical ice

now theres 30 more painted ones i need to change

[glossy sail]

welp thats pretty much the finished product

im just gonna clean up a bit with the torches and add trees on the top

[young bridge]

that looks really good icl

you should try the rubblemaker for some more foliage if you have the goblin tinkerer

[glossy sail]

im honestly.. really broke

and i have almost nothing to sell

[cinder vortex]

Events and bosses give some things worth some coin

[young bridge]

eye is a really nice source of cash early on if you get spare summons

you can sell the demonite/crimtane for nice cash

and on expert the shield is worth a nice amount

[glossy sail]

im gonna kill queen bee a few times for bees knees so she should be a nice money source for a bit

[young bridge]

okay so i replaced all the dynasty wood in my build with ash wood and oh my god it looks so much better

[rugged wedge]

could someone proof read this chart for every block if they have the time
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1OsxalMqUvKdchuDO8-v4qWtsm_Lf-DRguSHRzkajENw/edit?usp=sharing

[young bridge]

friendship ended with dryad flower seeds in planter boxes
rubblemaker plants are my new best friends

[rugged wedge]

they seem a lot easier to make than like strange plants

but also strange plants still have their use

bc they have the hitbox of 1 block (iirc) but it has the sprite of like a 2x3 or 3x3 plant

i need to retake EVERY SINGLE painted photo again because of a few mistakes, might kms 😋

thats 30 different photos bc poo was in the wrong spot

[young bridge]

strange plants are sometimes too big sprite-wise

rubblemaker plants can fit in 2x2 or 2x3

instead of the strange plant's 3x3 fat ahh sprite being able to sit in a singular planter box

[rugged wedge]

i would say echo coat but....

thatd just echo coat the whole plant

[young bridge]

exactly

you can't tell me these planter boxes don't look sweet as hell

[rugged wedge]

can you even paint magical ice blocks?

[plain owl]

can you paint labubu blocks?

[rugged wedge]

nvm, i had something selected in tedit

i was wondering why the blocks werent placing

the ice blocks dont stay on tedit when saving

i take it that they break upon the world reloading

[rugged wedge]

i took every picture... then realized i had echo sight on

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/251116850132287490/1481561474764640399/image0.gif

[slender vessel]

https://imgur.com/a/8ADC94N what should i add or change?

[rugged wedge]

wasnt that bad but still annoying i had to redo it

now i need to edit in all the echo blocks

[rugged wedge]

a somewhat easy thing to do would be to just stone mix to give it more of a varied texture

heres an example of it, you just use different kinds of similar blocks to and it helps the overall feel of the build

mostly by breaking up the repeated textures

it also depends on what you want the build to feel/look like to know what to add

[slender vessel]

im going for more of a abandon look

[slender vessel]

ill try that thank youu

[plucky zealot]

Something like this?

[rugged wedge]

AUGH i NEED to build to improve but i cant think of ideas so i cant build anything thus cant improve

you make me so jealous

[mossy maple]

how tf you all build like that

[rugged wedge]

practice

[rugged wedge]

just lots of time building

[mossy maple]

my max is like boxes in a row

[plucky zealot]

I feel that, inspiration be tough sometimes

[plucky zealot]

Lots of practice and experimenting

[plucky zealot]

Make something very simple, a house. Sounds easy but a good looking house is not so easy

[mossy maple]

do you know a good building blocks for a star castle or smth like that?

similar block like there are on clouds

[rugged wedge]

my issue is that ive built too many houses

[plucky zealot]

This was the result when I decided to make a house for once, and experimented with the roof which turned out great ngl

[plucky zealot]

Greenhouse, those are relatively easy to decorate

[rugged wedge]

like the last build i completed was this one

[wise bane]

how do u stack the strange plants

[proper ivy]

I like.

[rugged wedge]

not near it in the pic so the photo didnt have the shimmer effect

[plucky zealot]

Echo blocks or any other block that blends

[rugged wedge]

their hitbox is smaller than their sprite

[mossy maple]

i think i will be in that level in a cuple of years

[wise bane]

oh they can be placed on any tile??

[plucky zealot]

Pretty neat, though feels like there are too many spikes and the spikes are too big and the same shape

[wise bane]

dude i was placing grass and echo painting it 😔

[mossy maple]

but what is the name and how to obatain this shiny block

[wise bane]

couple fog machines here?

[rugged wedge]

aetherium block?

[wise bane]

aetherium brick and block

let shimmer come into contact with water

[rugged wedge]

i could try that

[rugged wedge]

or throw dirt into shimmer

[mossy maple]

thanks

[rugged wedge]

already told you but i used the bottom right section of this to build the house in my shimmer build

[mossy maple]

That's some crazy pixel art. Loving it, especially majora's mask and Sora

[mossy maple]

I also wanted to build a castle but it was crazy amouyof work

[proper ivy]

Samus and Sora were definitely the most complex

[cinder vortex]

[mossy maple]

[proper ivy]

[mossy maple]
