#

so ye, just wait

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:45 AM

#

I need it to be approved, cuz a lot of the changes broke already existing stuff... so if people use it now it will break after... and more people are getting it, xd

#

Ye I get that

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 9:45 AM

#

ye

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:45 AM

#

I don't have a life 😢

orchid sorrel Apr 10, 2023, 9:46 AM

#

you literally uploaded it yesterday

#

12h have just passed

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:46 AM

#

it feels like a long time, okay

#

xddd

#

i'm impatient, haha

#

also the first update that broke the original plugin was uploaded like 24hrs ago

#

I just added more to it later

#

but no longer core breaking stuff

#

How does one become a volunteer for approving anyway?

#

Also how does one get a cool role like you have... for example 'plugin intermediate'?

#

or 'builder'

#

or all these others

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:50 AM

spark valve Also how does one get a cool role like you have... for example 'plugin intermedi...

@orchid sorrel by you i mean you, just in case so ya know :p

orchid sorrel Apr 10, 2023, 9:51 AM

#

see ptag roles in bot commands

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:52 AM

#

Okay

#

thanks

#

Sheesh I didn't realize how much I added to my plugin yesterday

#

#

like damn, lol

#

I thought the corner pieces were there already from the day before

#

i guess not

#

That makes me more proud of my work... that I did that much in 1 day

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 9:54 AM

#

out of boredom, here's a spinning kamaz typhoon

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:54 AM

#

haha, cool

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 9:54 AM

#

lol thanks

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:55 AM

#

spark valve

This is still not all btw... I have like... a few more pieces ideas

#

Like an outer corner for example

#

As I only have an inner corner

#

But idk when ima get to that, cuz weekends over

#

:p

#

I also wanted to add a... 1 tile turn and 2 sided pieces so you can like make parallel parking small parking ovals

#

Which I think would be pretty cool

#

I just want to make the plugin in a way that it doesn't limit your creativity im how you want your parking/roads to look

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 9:58 AM

#

i dont get your idea

#

can you show me a pic

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:58 AM

#

Um like

#

Well the external corner is obvious I think :p

#

And as for the other thing

#

Lemme try draw it

#

But on a phone on a subway, so a bit precarious

#

lol

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:00 AM

#

some plugins take around a week to get approved. 12 hours isnt anything, ive had to wait days too

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:02 AM

#

So this is what you can do now, right

#

But my idea is...

#

The same thing, but only on a 1 tile gap

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:03 AM

#

wha?

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:03 AM

#

As now you can do any tile gap except for a 1 wide gap

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:03 AM

#

what do you mean?

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:03 AM

#

Ohmygod

#

Wait

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 10:06 AM

#

spark valve Well the external corner is obvious I think :p

Ah

#

Ye you should try

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:06 AM

#

spark valve Wait

hm?

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:10 AM

#

#

The idea was to be able to do this

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 10:11 AM

#

I get your idea now

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:11 AM

#

if you had a 1 tile gap between roads for example

#

To be able to add parallel parking

#

Which I think it kinda cool

#

You could also use like... the lineless pieces to make both roads thicker even if only 1 tile away from each other

#

I also want to add a 1 way road that's half a tile wide

#

So you can have actually working turning lanes

#

Not just visually

#

It should be possible as I saw something similar before

#

The one way thin road with parallel parking on one side

#

I'm basically creating a cool road stuff pack at this point

#

Not just parking

#

And it only has like 50kb atm with already a ton of stuff

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:14 AM

#

~~you should learn lua~~

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:14 AM

#

So I think I can add a lot more without space being an issue

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:14 AM

#

crimson basin ~~you should learn lua~~

Why

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:15 AM

#

allows you to do a lot more things

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:15 AM

#

Like?

#

What exactly is lua?

#

Oh

#

A coding language

#

I can't do thst, I suck at coding

#

Tried to learn c#, c++, python, html

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:18 AM

#

theres fun too, fun is used for goofy things

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:18 AM

#

i don't know crap, lol

#

i just am terrible at it

#

It's just not my thing

#

I can sorta do the jsons, but even them keep forgetting commas and crap

#

adhd go brrrr

#

The best I ever did with programming was unreal engines visual scripting

#

As it was more visual than numerical

#

lol

#

I'm just more of the creative/ideas type

#

not the numbers/coding type

#

lul

#

huge discrepency

#

xd

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:20 AM

#

i can tell some json errors now
ngl i feel very accomplished if i manage to do a json without help with the errors xD

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:21 AM

#

haha

#

same

#

I managed to make my fence sidewalk work

#

All by myself basically

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:21 AM

#

usually expected value comes when theres a trailing comma

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:21 AM

#

When uh Kulche was busy

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:21 AM

#

my problem comes from other stuff nnow

#

yeah hes a busy man

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:22 AM

#

Yea

#

I know but I fixed my fences when he was busy

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:22 AM

#

fun fact i have a folder full of jsons

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:22 AM

#

And yeah the sidewalk shifts a bit and has no shadow

#

But it's great at filling gaps

#

If you want parking only on one side

#

You don't notice that much

#

Way better than not having it at all

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:22 AM

#

spark valve

Used it a bunch on this promo image

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:23 AM

#

#

i had too many jsons on my home screen

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:23 AM

#

You can kinda see the switch from country road to fence here

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:23 AM

#

idk what they are anymore

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:23 AM

#

But like

#

Still awesome imo

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:23 AM

#

spark valve You can kinda see the switch from country road to fence here

fence?

#

where

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:23 AM

#

crimson basin

lol

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:24 AM

#

crimson basin fence?

Where the sidewalk shadow ends and there's 1 pixel missing

#

From 2 views it shifts 1 pixel down

#

So it's more noticeable

#

But still rlly good imo

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:25 AM

#

spark valve lol

i think this was back when my json was 1000 lines long and i had like 10 copies of the json and i was angry with all the bugs because there were so many. it was my first pack so i was having trouble with putting multiple into one json

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:25 AM

#

Why would you put multiple into one?

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:25 AM

#

why wouldnt i?

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:25 AM

#

Idk

#

My pack has like 26 jsons, lol

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:26 AM

#

one json is the same as multiple smaller ones. it saves space ~~i think~~

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:26 AM

#

Probably a tiny bit

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:26 AM

#

spark valve My pack has like 26 jsons, lol

i have 5 buildings with 25 animations each and night animation

#

night animation was also split

#

into 2

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:27 AM

#

But for my roads there's no point in me doing that... it's like 57kb... might be 150 when i'm done... that's like 1/6th of a megabyte, lol

#

for like a very versatile road pack

#

So a few kb I would save... not worth the work

#

I can spend the time doing other stuff, lul

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:27 AM

#

this is my plugin folder lol. the one i save all my images and jsons to

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:28 AM

#

Nice

#

Oh I wanted to ask

#

Do ya know how to make subcategories?

#

Cause my pack has it's own category, ye

#

But then I would like it to split into 2

#

Seperate the versions with sidewalks and without

#

As ima add a lot more pieces

#

To make it less overwhelming

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:29 AM

#

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:29 AM

#

spark valve Do ya know how to make subcategories?

let me seee, im sure theres something on the forum about that

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:29 AM

#

I would also probably split.off versions with cars later into seperate ones too

#

Just to section it a bit

#

So it's easier to find stuff

#

As I already have like 26 different pieces

#

And it will probably get to like 60 or summin

#

So I will need to make it easy to use

#

Cause finding the right pieces would be frustrating otherwise

#

I also updated the naming system like 4 timss now to make it easier

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:31 AM

https://forum.theotown.com/viewtopic.php?f=41&t=4269

there

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:31 AM

#

Like for me it's pretty easy to orientate myself in it... but still for people who open it for the first time, that woule be great

#

Wait is that a drop down menu?

#

I just wanted the one where you click on it and there are more options

orchid sorrel Apr 10, 2023, 10:33 AM

#

you'd just put a category in a category

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:34 AM

#

How tho

#

I have
"category": "category"

#

right

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:35 AM

#

kulche are you on holiday?

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:35 AM

so would you do like
"category: "category" {"category"}

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:35 AM

#

youre suspiciously active 👀

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:35 AM

orchid sorrel Apr 10, 2023, 10:37 AM

spark valve so would you do like "category: "category" {"category"}

wtf is that

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:37 AM

#

A category in a category

orchid sorrel Apr 10, 2023, 10:37 AM

crimson basin kulche are you on holiday?

depends what do you mean by that

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:37 AM

#

xd

orchid sorrel Apr 10, 2023, 10:37 AM

#

you just reference a category the same way you'd do for a building

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:37 AM

#

how do you reference 2 tho

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:38 AM

#

orchid sorrel depends what do you mean by that

what kind of holiday are you on?

orchid sorrel Apr 10, 2023, 10:39 AM

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:39 AM

orchid sorrel Apr 10, 2023, 10:40 AM

   {
      "id": "categoryid",
      "type": "category",
      "category": "categoryidnumeroduo"
   }
]```

#

lol

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:41 AM

#

Yeah but how do I make this category go into another category?

orchid sorrel Apr 10, 2023, 10:42 AM

#

make sure to define the category you'd use as categoryidnumeroduo before it is used

orchid sorrel Apr 10, 2023, 10:42 AM

#

spark valve Yeah but how do I make this category go into another category?

man

#

that's exactly what it does

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:42 AM

#

what, how

orchid sorrel Apr 10, 2023, 10:42 AM

#

I wrote a category definition

#

that creates a new category

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:42 AM

#

where does it reference the previous category?

orchid sorrel Apr 10, 2023, 10:42 AM

#

and puts it into another category

orchid sorrel Apr 10, 2023, 10:43 AM

#

spark valve where does it reference the previous category?

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 10:43 AM

#

The "category"

#

?

#

so category is the 1

#

amd category numeroduo

#

is the one inside it?

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:44 AM

#

apparently "isometric" images from google arent isometric

orchid sorrel Apr 10, 2023, 10:44 AM

theotown is not 100% isometric

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:44 AM

#

oh

what

orchid sorrel Apr 10, 2023, 10:44 AM

as far as I know what isometric means

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 10:45 AM

so ionsane

orchid sorrel Apr 10, 2023, 10:45 AM

#

isometry is like 26 something degrees?

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 10:45 AM

#

it isnt?

#

no clue 😭

orchid sorrel Apr 10, 2023, 10:45 AM

#

a ratio of 1 : 2 pixels gives 30 deg

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 10:45 AM

30 i think

you mean a plugin store mederators?

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 12:08 PM

#

Yea

#

Cuz like idk, maybe I could volunteer

#

I sometimes have a lot of spare time

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 12:09 PM

#

i dont think they are hiring rn

#

but ig you can try to apply

#

somehow

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 12:09 PM

#

lunar snow i dont think they are hiring rn

why not, if it takes up to days to approve, lul

#

me being like... modding discord with over 300 people, modding reddit with 15k people (there are like 8 other mods, but I have 600 actions in the past year, they have like maybe not even 100 in total all together, lol)
I bet I could take on one more thing to check :p

#

As someone else here said... they have a life... me... debatable 🤣

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 12:13 PM

well yes but you must be experienced with plugin making in order to become a plugin store mods

well you are new so

#

not new to the game tho

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 12:16 PM

#

i mean that's not the point

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 12:16 PM

#

just joined the discord recently

#

lul

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 12:16 PM

#

the point is that you need to be experienced in plugin making

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 12:16 PM

#

why?

#

Most plugins are buildings and decoration stuff and stuff... like you don't need that muxh code for that

#

I could leave the more intricate plugins to be accepted by someone who knows more

#

And they wouldn't have to waste time on the more basic ones

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 12:17 PM

#

i mean im not the mod so

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 12:17 PM

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 12:17 PM

#

the26 and kulche is the mods

#

you can ask them for more

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 12:17 PM

#

i can ask them ig, lul

#

like i could assume you could just start with handling the easier plugins... and maybe with time as you get experience, yk, get to more complex ones

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

Like the reddit I mod, I also only started with like... some basic... post moderation and now I have rights to like banning and changing almost everything and soon ima get full perms... as ima be there 3 years and doing a good job :p

#

so yk... here you could start with approving basic plugins

#

There's probably most of those anyway?

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

Like I understand how roads work, fences work, decoration pieces work, categories, rotation frames and all this basic stuff

#

buildings are also like simple

#

Unless you have more complex lua stuff and idk... animations and stuff

#

it should be fine imo

#

You said it's volunteers

#

alul

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 12:45 PM

#

spark valve I mean you download them and test them if they work no? And if it looks good?

I can read jsons

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 12:46 PM

crimson basin and lua

I can leave that to people who know that, if the plugin has it

#

Just skip it

#

If it has summin you don't understand

#

Leave it to someone else

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 12:47 PM

crimson basin and need to be very familiar with the plugin rules

Well I could get to know these

crimson basin Apr 10, 2023, 12:47 PM

spark valve I can read jsons

doubt it

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 12:47 PM

Well i'm better at understanding code than writing it

My whole learning of coding has kinda been that, I could understand python and c# pretty okay... but I can't progtam anything, lol

Somebody who writes malicious plugins

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 12:50 PM

Well I can run it, try it myself no?

empty night Apr 10, 2023, 12:50 PM

#

To just makes things simple

#

Yeah you can.

#

But the point here is that for you tu be a moderator in there, you have to have a good portfolio of experience and plugins made

#

Since remember, approving plugins can be really subjective on what it's deem unworthy and which is worthy of approving

#

You really have to keep an eye specially on how the buildings are made and drawn

#

There is a really fine threshold for that

#

And that you can only get it trough experience making them

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 12:56 PM

Well see you in 2 weeks ig :p

it works

#

just ignore the doubled up line

i haven't created the piece without a line yet to use as the other curved endpiece

#

so I rotated one center one with lines

you know

there's this one thing i really want you to do

that you could do

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 1:21 PM

#

yeah?

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 1:21 PM

#

bike lane and emergency lane

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 1:22 PM

that's not a bad idea

rich birch Apr 10, 2023, 1:22 PM

maybe some kind of city warehouse

you could make the bike lanes multi-color

this will be easy to make, just gotta make a version of my pieces with a full line

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 1:23 PM

nice

i would love to see that

#

it's something we are missing

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 1:24 PM

#

yup will do

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 1:24 PM

#

spark valve this will be easy to make, just gotta make a version of my pieces with a full li...

but you know

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 1:24 PM

#

i think this is the sort of plugin pack that can include this

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 1:24 PM

#

emergency land are like a lane

#

not a road

#

it should not be as wide as theotown's road

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 1:24 PM

#

yeah it will be like the same width as my other pieces

#

around half a road

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 1:24 PM

#

nice

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 1:24 PM

#

like one lane

#

size

#

or maybe a bit less

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 1:24 PM

#

yes

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 1:24 PM

#

idk how thick my things are exactly

#

about one lane

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 1:25 PM

#

just cut a theotown's road in half

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 1:25 PM

#

yup

#

yeah I can add this today probably

#

together with the center pieces

#

just gotta make 2 more sets of the center pieces

#

ones without lines

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 1:26 PM

#

yes

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 1:26 PM

#

and then the ones with chevrons

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 1:26 PM

#

nice

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 1:27 PM

#

tho i wanna try do the line set to have the lines alternating instead (not actually) but rn I have both pieces with the line on the same side

#

I think if I did one top and one bottom

#

1 pixel difference

#

you wouldn't need to use the...

#

without lines endpiece

#

since I wanna make different categories for a plugin

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 1:27 PM

#

i see

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 1:27 PM

#

and that would make it annoying

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 1:27 PM

#

spark valve since I wanna make different categories for a plugin

you can

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 1:27 PM

#

to have to go to a different category

#

for the endpiece

#

yk

#

but if I alternate them

#

it... should work

#

I think maybe

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 1:28 PM

#

i see

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 1:28 PM

#

gonna need to try it

#

lol

#

I want to make it in a way that gives you as much freedom of making what you want as possible

#

but also categorise it to not make it overwhelming

#

orrrr

#

yk what ima do

#

ima just make the lineless endpiece twice

#

like the same piece twice

#

so I can just have it be in both categories

#

cause I don't assume you can make 1 piece appear in 2 places?

#

or can I add "category" twice

#

and it will make it show up in both?

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 1:34 PM

#

i dont actually remember about these stuffs

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 1:34 PM

#

hmm ig i can try it when ima be making the new subcategories later

#

if it won't work ima just

#

ctrl-c ctrl-v some pieces

#

so i can have the same piece in more than one category

#

where needed

#

cause i believe i need that with some of the other pieces as well

#

i believe like 5 pieces in total out of the like 26 or summin

#

need to be in 2 categories

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 1:35 PM

Depends of which

#

Vehicles are tiny

#

No shadows

#

And no noise

#

and anyway too bad quality to take it and modify it

#

or it must be copied and improved

midnight obsidian Apr 10, 2023, 2:02 PM

i can but i won't

rich birch Who is it supposed to be

not anyone in particular

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 2:18 PM

#

@lunar snow oh btw I just realized you can make like could make like cool merge lanes... could go from the emergency lane to the chevron lane to like a normal dotted lane

#

that would be cool

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 2:18 PM

#

you can make it

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 2:18 PM

#

I will make it

#

and you will soon be able to make roads with that

#

haha

flat oracle Apr 10, 2023, 2:19 PM

#

We need more realistic decos in the game

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 2:19 PM

#

in terms of road decos

#

i'm on it

#

xd

#

actually ever new piece type I add takes a lot longer... cause I gotta make a crap ton of versions of it, lol

#

for all the possible ways

#

so straights, end pieces, inner curves... and all in 4 directions

#

to make it rotation frame compatible

#

painnn

flat oracle Apr 10, 2023, 2:21 PM

#

I can too. I have never drawn road deco/fence/transport plugins, but I can make it. I already have an experience with buildings

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 2:21 PM

#

I already made 42 unique different road deco pieces

#

which means

#

168 pieces

#

cause each has 4 sides

#

I mean I added 38

#

i'm working on another 4 now

#

and there's more planned

#

the emergency lane will add like another 5 pieces?

#

but it will be 6

#

as I need to make a external curve piece

#

and 7 for a sharp internal

#

so every piece will have 7 piece types

#

meaning that ima need to add 2 more piece types to almost everything

#

lol

#

you will probably be able to build race tracks with this

#

like something that would look like it kinda

#

cause you can use the chevron pieces as edges

#

if I make a road completely without any markings at all

#

lol

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 2:25 PM

#

nice

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 2:25 PM

#

yea, xd

#

this will probably become the biggest like road deco stuff pack ever, xd

#

ima probably need to rename it to summin else

#

not only parallel parking anymore

#

what should I name it

#

renaming it means I need to go through all the json files and rename it there, lol

#

but it's also actually a really small pack

#

as all the pieces are pretty simple

#

so the pngs are super tiny

#

but it is big on like A LOT of work

#

lol

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 2:46 PM

#

this looks really cool

#

there are so many things you can do to your roads already with the pieces in this pack

#

so many combinations

#

and varieties

#

it's like endless, lol

#

and will be even more so when i'm done

#

this is where the limits to your road design end, you will now be able to make your roads look however ya want :p

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 2:49 PM

#

nice

#

what is that

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 2:49 PM

#

chevrons

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 2:50 PM

#

ah

#

i mean it doesnt look equally divided

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 2:53 PM

#

yea there are some gaps, it wasn't really possible to make it equally divided and work well with parking spaces and end curves and stuff, but I think it looks cool

#

you could make like the lane merge thing with them

#

or like in my plugin image

#

corners

#

the issue was when I added a line in each of those gaps

#

it was at the edge of a piece

#

which meant they sometimes doubled up

#

and I kinda didn't wanna spend time redesigning all... 16 pieces

#

cause that's kind a pain

#

ngl

#

lol

#

i will rather just add new cool functionalities

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 2:57 PM

#

spark valve you could make like the lane merge thing with them

you should really divide those lines equally

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 2:57 PM

#

than spend hours perfecting the chevrons

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 2:57 PM

#

it's really annoying to look at lol

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 2:57 PM

#

i find it cool

#

lol

#

I can send you the files and you can fix it yourself, xd

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 2:58 PM

#

ye i could fix it

#

send me the files

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 2:58 PM

#

really?

#

sure then, ima work on other stuff in the mean time, that would actually be cool

#

I fixed them like 3 times already and yea

#

kinda bored of chevrons

#

xd

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 3:03 PM

#

anyway

#

forgot to say but chemical corps from all countries will be included in tlmep

specifically, i see the chemical corps a lot during covid-19

maybe a better name?

or just

I don't think the turning pieces should be squared?

Erin do you plan to add cars on park ?

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 4:09 PM

#

lunar snow I don't think the turning pieces should be squared?

well in cities they can be kinda squared, but often there is a little curve, but I didn't want to make a new piece set just for that, lol

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 4:10 PM

#

spark valve well in cities they can be kinda squared, but often there is a little curve, but...

but emergency lane doesn't exist on the city road

it only exists on highway

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 4:10 PM

#

maybe

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 4:10 PM

#

It should always be curved

#

the turning point

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 4:11 PM

#

yes ik, but also if I had to make every piece of every situation you can have irl I would make like 50 000 pieces

#

and have it be my lifes work

#

xd

#

maybe I will make it

#

we will see

#

but first I wanna make some of the other pieces that are missing and stuff, haha

#

it all takes a lot of time

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 4:12 PM

#

I highly recommend you to make the curved turning emergency land pieces

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 4:12 PM

#

also none of these pieces will work with actual in game highways

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 4:12 PM

#

it is only 8 pieces

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 4:12 PM

spark valve also none of these pieces will work with actual in game highways

ofc

#

obv

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 4:13 PM

#

that should be easy

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 4:13 PM

#

hopefully

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 4:13 PM

#

you take the border less two way road frames

#

and make another draft for the one way version

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 4:13 PM

#

it all adds up, lol, only 8 pieces here, only 8 pieces there and it's 20hrs later suddenly, xd

Both of the following statements are true

change it into separate objects

sure

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 4:27 PM

#

i fixed it

#

#

ima add frames to the other too after, but

#

are the other 2 subcategories of the first?

#

yes I think so

orchid sorrel Apr 10, 2023, 4:29 PM

#

yeah that's how it works

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 4:29 PM

#

was missing the flat lines

orchid sorrel Apr 10, 2023, 4:29 PM

yep

now it's just missing frames

#

lunar snow I can help you on the icon

sure!

#

that would be cool

#

ima go put stuff into categories now

orchid sorrel Apr 10, 2023, 4:31 PM

#

yes I'd recommend you to create something that would sit flush with ingame icons

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 4:33 PM

#

spark valve that would be cool

alr

#

I have some experience with this thing befro5

#

before

#

it should be easy

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 4:33 PM

#

awesome, thanks ^^

#

i might later split these sidewalk and no sidewalk categories into more sub categories like... chevrons, sidelines, lines and stuff... but we will see

#

for now ima do this and see how it looks

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 4:34 PM

#

Alr

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 4:35 PM

#

so then it would be like
plugin > no sidewalk > chevrons

maybe

¯_(ツ)_/¯

ah

way better

#

like so much better

#

xd

#

having both the ones with sidewalks and without in one

#

was rlly confusing

#

lol

#

now it's ordered too

#

all the chevron stuff

#

then all the dotted stuff

#

then all the lined stuff

#

then all the sideline stuff

#

and then the basic empty pieces

which I think makes it really easy to use now

btw @spark valve

for the double side chevron

#

shouldn't it look like this

instead of this

#

I can fix it for you if I have the permission

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 5:09 PM

#

well it wasn't meant for the centre of the road originally

#

it was meant for 2 roads next to each other

#

xd

#

but sure

#

we could make that ig

#

that means we can completely ditch the ones with a sidewalk probably?

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 5:11 PM

#

lunar snow instead of this

except maybe for the endpieces

#

have the sidewalk go just like that

#

on the endpieces

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 5:11 PM

#

lunar snow shouldn't it look like this

and then this

#

and on the ones without a sidewalk it would do the same

#

but without a sidewalk

#

lol

#

and the center pieces would be the same

#

that's a good idea tbh @lunar snow

#

or or maybe leave the sidewalk on these end pieces as it is now

#

as some people could want to use it for edges of parallel parking

#

so just make the center pieces like up above

#

that will be good

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 5:13 PM

#

lunar snow instead of this

this works as it is tbh

#

yea

#

sorry for being a bit confusing

#

I was just running it through my head deciding what would be best

#

haha

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 5:14 PM

Alr

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 5:14 PM

#

yeah

#

ig just join these together

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 5:14 PM

#

I will fix it my way

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 5:14 PM

#

cool ig

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 5:15 PM

#

Kinda

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 5:15 PM

#

tho probably keep the lines straight

#

and not tilted cause

#

that could break with the rotation

#

and we don't want arrows facing the wrong direction, xd

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 5:15 PM

#

K

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 5:16 PM

#

I can make this endpiece later

#

when I do all of my inner curves

#

I will probably make a spiked version like this and a dull one too

#

as you can see both irl

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 5:18 PM

#

spark valve I can make this endpiece later

I could make it

Show me the thing

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 5:18 PM

#

that wouldn't rlly work probably as we wouldn't be able to place it on the normal road... we can only place stuff on the side of roads

#

as it's only decoration pieces

lunar snow Apr 10, 2023, 5:20 PM

Yes that's what I'm thinking

hard to draw on a trackpad

I already fixed that before

it should be good now

#

perfect

#

boop

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 8:11 PM

#

okay

#

ima redo my whole plugin as roads

#

will take up less space

#

less jsons

#

easier to build

#

less pieces and things

#

cause they will build automatically

#

this will be massive for this plugin

#

gonna propel it to the stratosphere as the best road plugin ever

#

:p

#

one done

#

25 to go

#

:p

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 8:58 PM

#

it will be the same plugin like I was making

#

but just better

#

as you don't need to place it piece by piece

#

which will make it a lot better

#

does everything automatically

#

you just draw it

#

so far only did the 2 emergency lane road versions

#

and now just the other 24 road versions

rain gate Apr 10, 2023, 9:00 PM

#

Will u still keep the placable ones?

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:00 PM

#

why?

rain gate Apr 10, 2023, 9:01 PM

#

I'd much rather just use placable ones tbh

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:01 PM

#

why tho?

rain gate Apr 10, 2023, 9:01 PM

#

Lets u customize better imo

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:01 PM

#

i think you should be able to customise the same with this

rain gate Apr 10, 2023, 9:02 PM

#

do what u want its your plugin after all.. i just think removing that would ruin it.

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:03 PM

#

short, long, around the corner, roundabout, little dot

#

all is still possible the same

#

you just drag instead of placing one by one

#

makes it also easier for me to edit the textures if they are in one file like a road thing

#

so updates will be easier

#

you can combine them the same as before too

#

here are the 2 types, sidewalk and no sidewalk of this that I made so far

#

so it works basically exactly the same, you just don't need individual pieces

#

you can just click with one type on another to change that one piece

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:13 PM

#

rain gate Lets u customize better imo

so you can customise the same

#

you just don't need to select individual pieces

#

just the road type

rain gate Apr 10, 2023, 9:14 PM

#

As I said, do what u want it's your plugin afterall.

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:15 PM

#

do you not think having a few road types is better than a million small pieces and json files and everything? it makes it harder to make any changes to the sets as they are all individual too and more work with the jsons and naming and descriptions and everything, this will allow me to update it easier in the future and make it all more neat and easy to use, imo

#

while retaining the exact same functionality

#

plus more

#

the extra lanes will actually be drivable, so emergency lanes used by emergency vehiecles

#

and such

stoic palm Apr 10, 2023, 9:16 PM

#

Both verisons have their uses

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:17 PM

#

stoic palm Both verisons have their uses

how come? i still don't get how it makes it different in use cases

rain gate Apr 10, 2023, 9:17 PM

#

Bro all i said is I personally like the pieces, your going on a rant now lol

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:18 PM

#

just expected this to be a better exciting change, lol, so i wanna understand why

stoic palm Apr 10, 2023, 9:18 PM

#

I think having the various pieces does allow for alot more custom uses, whereas having them as roads or something similar allows the in mass thing to be done very easy

#

Of course it really depends on how its going to be used

rain gate Apr 10, 2023, 9:18 PM

#

I actually think'd it be nice to have both.

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:18 PM

#

stoic palm I think having the various pieces does allow for alot more custom uses, whereas ...

i think you can use it in custom ways too though?

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:18 PM

#

rain gate I actually think'd it be nice to have both.

i mean I can, but it will make the plugin a lot bigger and any update way harder, lul

#

as well as i was thinking of trying to make parked cars as road decorations

stoic palm Apr 10, 2023, 9:19 PM

#

Yeah but when you have all the pieces rather than having a road it can get really custom outside of the use for parking haha

#

That's what I mean

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:19 PM

#

since that would be easier as you could place them on any piece

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:19 PM

#

stoic palm Yeah but when you have all the pieces rather than having a road it can get reall...

well you can still have every piece be different even with a road

stoic palm Apr 10, 2023, 9:19 PM

#

Yeah

#

I don't think my point is getting across haha

#

let me look at something before I say something incorrectly

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:21 PM

#

sure

#

i mean i can keep both in the plugin, but it will be a lot more work and the plugin will be twice as big, which some people said they care about plugin size

#

plus updates would be way harder

stoic palm Apr 10, 2023, 9:22 PM

#

You could always release both as different plugins

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:22 PM

#

hmm

#

i guess

stoic palm Apr 10, 2023, 9:22 PM

#

one as a "line tool", and the other as the pieces

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:22 PM

#

i'm still curious about a use case you can't do with this

#

lul

#

i feel like having it as roads gives it even more use cases than before

#

as you can place road decorations on it, we will try make car road decorations

#

you can actually have cars drive some of the types

rain gate Apr 10, 2023, 9:24 PM

#

I think all the road does is allow you to build faster and road deco..

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:24 PM

#

like the turn lanes

stoic palm Apr 10, 2023, 9:24 PM

#

But back to what I was saying, when you have all the parts you can creatively use them outside of the application for a road. As road pieces they have specific conditions. Such as an end, a corner, a single road piece ect. So in an area where you make only want to use the center lane, for example, rather than the center lane along with the and curved end pieces

#

Or having to just a "mark as road" plugin

#

to get the effect you want instead

#

like my first, message said, I can see the points for both

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:25 PM

#

hmm

stoic palm Apr 10, 2023, 9:25 PM

#

and I do think they have different uses

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:25 PM

#

i guess I can release to versions

#

but ya'll rlly wanna murder me

stoic palm Apr 10, 2023, 9:26 PM

#

however, its also my opinion that at the end of the day the creator has the choice and their opinion is really all that matters

Whenever asked for insight I will happily provide though

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:26 PM

#

but I am not making versions with cars for the pieces if we can make it with decorations

#

cuz there's so many piece types

#

that it would just be so much work

#

lol

midnight obsidian Apr 10, 2023, 9:26 PM

midnight obsidian Apr 10, 2023, 9:28 PM

Although imo road would be the best because after all there is no limit for road decorations on a road tile

stoic palm Apr 10, 2023, 9:29 PM

#

Actually wait

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:29 PM

#

decals don't have rotation frames right?

#

that would be an issue

rain gate Apr 10, 2023, 9:29 PM

#

All of them have there pro's and cons.

stoic palm Apr 10, 2023, 9:30 PM

#

midnight obsidian Although imo road would be the best because after all there is no limit for road...

what's the main difference in terrian and decals in this case

rain gate Apr 10, 2023, 9:30 PM

#

Tbh all of then in there own way are really good, so if u wanted to you could make them all and that'd be incredible.

midnight obsidian Apr 10, 2023, 9:30 PM

#

Decals can be placed ontop of terrain

stoic palm Apr 10, 2023, 9:30 PM

#

midnight obsidian Decals can be placed ontop of terrain

can you then place something on a decal?

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:30 PM

#

do decals or terrain have rotation frames?

#

cause without that it won't work

midnight obsidian Apr 10, 2023, 9:31 PM

#

stoic palm can you then place something on a decal?

Yes, i'm fairly certain you can

stoic palm Apr 10, 2023, 9:31 PM

#

spark valve do decals or terrain have rotation frames?

I am honestly not sure

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:31 PM

#

re you saying you wanting to place down only one straight piece

#

I can make the road default to a straight piece

#

if there's only one road tile

#

this part

stoic palm Apr 10, 2023, 9:33 PM

#

Having the default road tile just be a straight section would be nice

#

that would fix that issue I was talking about

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:36 PM

#

yea

#

exactly

#

that was actually a really good idea

#

i just had these default ones there

#

as like

#

'nothing'

#

yk

#

there's still more unused cases, lul, cuz some of them just won't happen with a one sided lane

#

but some of the 'join road' use cases could be used for creating turning lanes

#

when you hit a road head on

#

with the turning lane variant

#

in a way it will be kinda like

#

town scraper

#

where it will just be smart

#

and do the thing depending on the situation

#

lol

rain gate Apr 10, 2023, 9:40 PM

#

I think your best bet would be to make dif versions, but do what u want of course.

spark valve Apr 10, 2023, 9:44 PM

#

i could since I already created a lot of it that way

#

but if feel the road one will work better, more benefits, that's why I got excited about it, since I think it's better, but I can release both

#

since 'all' it will require is more jsons and pngs

#

which isn't 'that' bad but still extra work, but yeah

#

I did most of the plugin that way already

#

so i can

#

if ya'll rlly want it, I can release it to ya'll, xd

#

:p

❤️

anyway I need to go sleep and stuff
