[urban grove]

Amazing! I've always wanted more 1×1 diagonal buildings.Will you do 1×1 non isometric buildings? (If possible)

[unkempt pollen]

OH MAN IM GONNA HAVE FUN WITH THIS

[lunar snow]

Cool

[vernal dragon]

Well, I’m making diagonal ones... but unfortunately, poly-diagonal ones are a pain to make even with 2*2

[echo prairie]

Add diagonal pls /j

[midnight obsidian]

Add non isometric pls

[humble iron]

Make it 3d

How to make a plugin? Can anyone help

[restive pine]

Oh thanks

@crimson basin by the way where is it

I'm new here so may I get your help

[crimson basin]

@crimson basin another one please?

How to make building texture

[crimson basin]

a pixel drawing app

i use pixly but people use pixel studio and ibis paint x

[restive pine]

Oh can i use a png image there to make it look just like that

[crimson basin]

yiu should draw your own

[restive pine]

Pixly isn't available for my device version

[restive pine]

Oh

[trim blade]

Where's that APK for pixly?

I needed to use that on my phone

[restive pine]

Is this correct one

[crimson basin]

shhh we dont talk about those

[trim blade]

Pixel Studio also works

[crimson basin]

should work yes

[restive pine]

Oh okay

[trim blade]

Hmm, ok

[restive pine]

Thanks 😊

[trim blade]

I use both

[restive pine]

Oh i see

[crimson basin]

biggest regret of plugin making: installing json genie on my phone @orchid sorrel

and trying to make a json with that

id pick notepad over that anyday

also json genie json code looks horrid

its all on one line

how do people use that thing even

[orchid sorrel]

cry

[restive pine]

@crimson basin use zarchiver

And change it's format to json

It's hard to make the texture

[crimson basin]

thats a file manager

[restive pine]

Yep but it does change file format

[crimson basin]

you cant just change a png into a json

youre changing an image to a text file

thats not what jsons are for

[restive pine]

Png but why is png changed to json

[crimson basin]

its not what i said

i was talking about json not textures

[echo prairie]

Bunny trying to explain all this trouble 💀

This is the code

Average deco code
[{
"title":"",
"id":"$your id",
"author":"forge",
"text":"",
"price":,
"draw ground":,
"needs road":if need road,
"frames":[{"bmp":"your frames here.png"}],
"width": building width in game,
"height": building height in game,
"type":""
}]

You put it here

An this is a png example

You put the code and the PNG together inside a folder

And you got a plugin

[restive pine]

Oh u mean this

[echo prairie]

Ye

[echo prairie]

There's nothing we can do 😢

Idk if that works

[thin wraith]

you can't chNge an image file to a text file

[restive pine]

Hmmm

But u can get those on google

I did one into .png link format

[echo prairie]

What?

[thin wraith]

??

[restive pine]

I mean image to .png text comverter

[thin wraith]

maybe It's a language barrier

[echo prairie]

Pixel drawing
Pixel studio
Pixel station
Pixly
Others

[thin wraith]

no

[restive pine]

Oh

[thin wraith]

that is simply not how it works

[echo prairie]

Json code editor
Code app
Es file explorer (it's a file explorer but reads a lot of codes)

[thin wraith]

you have to make the game use the image for the building

[thin wraith]

this would be the .json code for a building

you do need to fill the fields yoursekf

[restive pine]

Oh

[echo prairie]

If you have more questions you know 👍

[static sandal]

Lmao

[echo prairie]

Who approval the plugins?

Devs?

Or TT KGB elite?

[trim blade]

What if you don't want a square image?

[crimson basin]

its gonna appear as a square image anyway

[trim blade]

Then why worry about the image?

[crimson basin]

idk ask ja

[stoic echo]

So it's not cropped I guess

[midnight obsidian]

now that i look at the thumbnail yea that disapproval makes sense

Probably not. Unless you want it to look really bad.

Theotown doesn't like diagonals over other roads

[indigo girder]

:/

[crimson basin]

Yes because diagnals are considered corner pieces which require beam support

#plugin-discussion message

[vernal dragon]

How can I remove this gray background from the decal (ground type). I make semi-diagonal decals, and the problem is, instead of layering the decal, it replaces the previous one, and that’s all garbage

JSON these buildings

{
"draw ground":true,
"id":"PDR1_1_1_1",
"type":"ground",
"border frames":[{"bmp":"CGS1_2.png","w":32,"count":16,"handle y":8}],"edge border frames":[{"count":32,"h":32,"w":16,"x":0,"y":144}],"edge frames":[{"count":12,"h":48,"w":16,"x":0,"y":96}]},
"frames":[{"bmp":"PDR1_1.png","x":32,"y":0,"h":16,"w":32,"count":1}]
},

[orchid sorrel]

first, this is not a decal as it's missing it's level attribute

second, you can only place one decal on one tile

[crimson basin]

make one decor and one diagonal. easy fix. Or one road and one decal 🤔

or dont listen to my cursed solution lol

[orchid sorrel]

yeah don't listen to that

[crimson basin]

make them both road decor so they can be stacked. but that would make the decal vitually useless

[vernal dragon]

the problem here is that semi-diagonal buildings have an extra empty space, because of which, except for the ground, it is impossible to make a high-quality decor

[crimson basin]

ohhhh

yeah they do

[vernal dragon]

realy? one second

here you can see that the two decals overlap

I would like to know how to make decals like in this plugin

[orchid sorrel]

https://forum.theotown.com/viewtopic.php?p=175123

[vernal dragon]

God, thank you, I feel blind, because I searched the entire forum, but I missed this page.

[lunar snow]

Decals can overlap???

Wow

Now that's something i didnt know

[uncut acorn]

I didn’t know

Decals overlap?!!!?!?!

[vernal dragon]

yeah, if you insert level 1 into the decal, then it will be on top of the ground

[kind ore]

is there a plugin that creates diagonal sidewalks? Because I have roundabouts but I would like to put diagonal sidewalks

[urban grove]

Get alpha DanDM plugin (slashpotato server) it's better because it's a decal so you can put anything on top of it

[kind ore]

I put alpha DanDM in the plugin search bar?

[winged vapor]

@vernal dragon where is your private server???

[urban grove]

No it's not available on the plugin store. You need to join slashpotato server

@winged vapor check arangasit about me section

[winged vapor]

Where's that in discord???

I need link to that

[urban grove]

Click the pfp

[winged vapor]

What the pfp??

[urban grove]

sigh I'll dm you the link, just give me a minute

[winged vapor]

Ok

[kind ore]

So i search slashpotato server in search bar here ?

[urban grove]

Check your DM

[vernal dragon]

[vernal dragon]

click in my nikname

[kind ore]

Your bio ?

[vernal dragon]

what?

[kind ore]

what does this word nik mean

[vernal dragon]

ox, sorry, it is "tracing paper" from russian

[kind ore]

Hmm.. i don't understand

[vernal dragon]

something like a literal translation from one language to another. sometimes with a change in spelling, for example, recently the word "use" from English has moved to Russian and has changed a little and now sounds like " usat'(юзать) "

i dont know, what name this termin in english, sorry

[kind ore]

Ok... So but there is not a plugin that allows you to have diagonal sidewalks?

[vernal dragon]

There is, "advanced road". if I understood you correctly

[kind ore]

Ok i go check the plugin in-game

[vernal dragon]

and some kind of plugins from Potato

[vernal dragon]

Ok

[kind ore]

How so ?

[vernal dragon]

i dont know

[kind ore]

This plugin ''Advanced Road'' ?

[echo prairie]

MT-LBu Chassis variants

Why the red dot

@narrow light i dont think your suggestion is possible because you can only build one toad per tile. As mews roads take a whole tile to place even tiny pieces on, you cannot place the sidewalk on the ssme tile

[midnight obsidian]

[crimson basin]

that works lol

but pain

(mew mew can make it)

he has this so not too hard

[lunar snow]

Well now i know that it exists

I have some ideas in mind

Imagine like

An ultimate tiles pack

like a layer of transparent tiles as decal

And you can use it to overlap existing decals

[urban grove]

That would be nice and very useful

Maybe a mini version

[orchid sorrel]

ew

[humble iron]

It looks better as a roundabout monument

[humble iron]

It's proposed height is 4 kilometers

That thing is not gonna see the light of day

Maybe in the future

But today, or even 10 years from now? Nah

i really prefer those 8x8 rigid trucks

i think it's more common in asia but the trucks will be european

[crimson basin]

#plugin-suggestions message someones gonna be dissapointed when they find out TT has a max height limit

[urban grove]

What's the limit?

[orchid sorrel]

there's no hard limit if you use animations

but it's gonna get very buggy

[static pollen]

1024 pixels

Basically

[sage grail]

Yippeeeee another truck plugin

[uncut acorn]

ouch

[humble iron]

@vernal dragon so many wasted space, you could definitely turn this type of buildings into 2x2

[lunar snow]

agreed

[dreamy hearth]

I remember potato coding in the burj khalifa that exceeded the height limit

I mean it is possible, but it's too daunting for me at least

U just gotta cut the building into sections and try to fix it in

[lunar snow]

vonark has already made it

[dreamy hearth]

Exactly

[lunar snow]

but he didnt use the animations way i think

he made 2 buildings and stack it together

[dreamy hearth]

That could work as well

[lunar snow]

eh i prefer the animation way

[dreamy hearth]

Personally it depends on how much space would be wasted

[lunar snow]

yeah

[lunar snow]

ah i was wrong

he used the animations way

[dreamy hearth]

Oh, eh still looked like a mix of both actually

At one point, someone should just name their plugin that, or private.

"Hey what plug-in is that?"

"Private"

"Oh, ok."

[humble iron]

Unpublished coded pixel art

[sharp kettle]

Tf ru talking about

I have 5 layers for making the things already

[eternal sail]

bro wtf you have an unfinished plugin of world war 2 of trucks, warehouses, posters, even shops and buildings that you will not have unfinished

[urban grove]

That's alot

[indigo girder]

Are these private?

[humble iron]

Woah

Never seen these plugins before

[eternal sail]

The same, now i need that I don't care if I die I'm going to find that plugin

[urban grove]

Probably private or unreleased plugins

[humble iron]

Is it available

[dapper sun]

I guess so but you have to ask permission

[humble iron]

To who

[indigo girder]

Do you have the server?

[surreal oasis]

release when

[uncut acorn]

It could be for some reasons

Amazing

[echo prairie]

Can you guess what's that?

[surreal oasis]

CIWS?

[echo prairie]

Hahaha

Maybe nobody knows what's that weapon from the cold war

[lunar snow]

1K17 Szhatie?

[echo prairie]

Nope but amazing idea

Amazing vehicle

It's Long-range remote chemical reconnaisance system

[echo orbit]

Need this plugin

[midnight obsidian]

We need to come up with theotown slang so that new members have no idea what we're on about

[lunar snow]

what was that slang for private plugin again?

[sharp kettle]

idk wtf he means tho, i was just literally posting progress about the trailers and stuff

its unfinnished

[static sandal]

Let’s goooo

[stoic palm]

I've already said this isn't happening. The "funny" joke is just confusing for everyone involved

[trim blade]

😔

[trim blade]

I wasn't talking about your plugin at all when I said that

[crimson basin]

looking for plugin recs i can make that are small (maybe 1x1 to 4x4). But id like suggestions of things that when you see it remind of me. But also, it has to be something cool people would want to build in their cities. Not just a boring purple building or anything. I already have one of those.

[dusty hill]

i like this

[sharp kettle]

game really needed more level 1 res buildings..

[stoic echo]

You could go for Miami art deco buildings

[dusty hill]

Trailer Park Boys nice trailers

[vernal dragon]

Literally me))

[quasi hornet]

So you making memes about yourself

Excellent

[lunar snow]

Nice

No wonder everyone is suggesting you for grapa

[sage lantern]

I think most of them are made by Sergio

[dreamy hearth]

Search "New York" or "American" in the plugin store

But yeah some of them are also made by Sergio so you can look him up in the store as well

[indigo girder]

I'll look in the store, but I saw that the guy I sent the image made his own plugins, and didn't release it

It's so hard to find art deco buildings, so when I do they are private 🥲

[dreamy hearth]

There are some by adutchguy

[indigo girder]

Yes, they are pretty good

[sharp kettle]

right wall could use more shadow

[lunar snow]

very interesting suggestions

i hope to see more when it's ended

anyway if i dont win any titles next week

i will have to resort to the last option

[dusty hill]

i think there's no shadow on first one

[lunar snow]

which is committing voter fraud

[crimson basin]

@lunar snow what are these three

[lunar snow]

oh those are internal awards

[crimson basin]

ah

[lunar snow]

they are given for people that have made great contribution to LPC

not globally

these are globally

[crimson basin]

yee i saw

[lunar snow]

yeah

[crimson basin]

so why are they pencil and rulers

lol

[lunar snow]

well

plugin creators

creative stuff

draw

so pencil and ruler

[crimson basin]

but why pencil and rulers xD

[lunar snow]

i have just explained

it's related to drawing and creative stuff

[crimson basin]

why specifically them

why not pixel master awards

[lunar snow]

so there's this awards in vietnam called

Golden Hammer and Sickle Awards

so yeah

[crimson basin]

interesting

[lunar snow]

yeah

[lunar snow]

btw i wonder if Dekuz uses discord

[idle plank]

road.exe isn't working properly

[idle plank]

I already commented in this plugin.

I would say that this is good considering you put pedestrians in the sidewalk, or half of the tile and managed to put cars at the road which is half of the tile as well.

But I have trouble making + intersection and most of the time it is frustrating.

I wish you could add the 'Join Road' option as well.

@signal lagoon

[uncut acorn]

Like I said before, the right sides need shadows

[orchid sorrel]

the buildings look rather large

[idle plank]

Woah chill

The 1st floor/Ground floor is big. The rest of the floors, 2md and up is fine.

Your 1st floor is 10 pixels high.

[signal lagoon]

https://forum.theotown.com/viewtopic.php?t=17799 see at junction direction.

[uncut acorn]

Yeah… only the first floor got large

[signal lagoon]

this road can be joined with others.

[idle plank]

Also, they have buggy response and cannot go into the area where they were called in. Even though the roads are Joint together.

[signal lagoon]

just join it with the same direction like junction.

[lunar snow]

Nice

[glossy basin]

Thinking of Making a Plugin for the Military parts

To make more accurate stuff

[lunar snow]

go on

[glossy basin]

Ex: Squadbay Barracks, Messhalls, Supply Depots, military schools, armories

[lunar snow]

im hearing

[lunar snow]

that's exactly what im planning for tlmep

[glossy basin]

Mind, it will be based off existing stuff I see

[glossy basin]

Whats tlmep

[lunar snow]

the leaf military equipment pack

i have a plan

to make some military vehicles

[glossy basin]

You doing just Equipment, or Buildings included

[lunar snow]

and military buildings

[lunar snow]

yeah both

but im focusing on the vehicles

the buildings should be in russian style though

[glossy basin]

I will focus on buildings, and will be based off MCRD, and what I see in Camp Pendleton

[lunar snow]

interesting

[glossy basin]

I am too early to say, I need to get a Laptop first, but for now just planning

[lunar snow]

i would hope to see some cooperation between us

anyway im really looking foward to your plugin

[glossy basin]

I would love to, first I need to get out of MCT first before getting a Laptop, Learning how to make a Plugin. And finally make a "US Military Pack"

[lunar snow]

nice

well i also have the us tree in my plugin

[glossy basin]

Will you be adding in just Equipment as the "For War"

Or Equipment including Logistical trucks

[lunar snow]

oh making a plugin shouldnt be that hard

eh i dont think i will make them for war

probably for military parade and military excersise

[lunar snow]

and yep i do have logistical trucks

[glossy basin]

Nice

[lunar snow]

thank you

[glossy basin]

When you planning on realising this plugin?

[lunar snow]

oh i have already released it on LPC discord server

im releasing it part by part

[glossy basin]

Whats LPC?

[lunar snow]

currently im working on the Rockets n' Flame update

which will add these 5 vehicles

[lunar snow]

Leaf Ploogin Community

[crystal sandal]

i legit want that to come

[lunar snow]

same

[crystal sandal]

let's see if i want a train, something similar to like idk Steam engines or thomas ish

[glossy basin]

At this point in time, all I can is Sketch my plans for the Plugin

[lunar snow]

cool

as i have said

im looking foward for your plugin

maybe we can help each other in the future

[glossy basin]

I cant do much for the time being

[lunar snow]

i see

Nice

[sharp kettle]

oops, missed a couple of windows

[glossy basin]

Whats zis?

[rough hare]

crap zone plugin i made 6 yrs ago the sprites i made are kinda good just need to tone down the saturation on the grass

[sharp kettle]

and the glass

[rough hare]

yes i know

still not as saturated as my older older plugins

jeez if you saw them youll go blind

[eternal sail]

day 3 waiting for the plugin to be released to the public

https://tenor.com/view/cat-kitten-screaming-insane-crazy-gif-25352911

[sharp kettle]

||i planned to make a server where i can release some of my plugins in small number for some time now
but i simply don't trust anyone, not at all..||

[orchid sorrel]

theotown related server number 320583295

[echo prairie]

How many in reality?

[orchid sorrel]

too many to properly count

[tidal glen]

around 60 + -, if i remember correctly Pidroid its in like 68 servers

[crimson basin]

pidroid is in my server which isnt even theotown related. same with corn server

and a couple other private hangouts (non tt related) like pidroids world and some servers i am not allowed to mention (3 of them)

[uncut acorn]

Should be 30% darker at the right side

[uncut forge]

It's a nice building, hope to see it out soon

[eternal sail]

Nice

[eternal sail]

I finally the firts bogota house

[sharp kettle]

looks comfy

but the 2nd floor windows are quite large innit

[crimson basin]

Looks prettyyhy

[urban grove]

That's fine, you can't trust anyone these days especially on the internet.

[sharp kettle]

I did not sleep today🌚

i could not sleep today..

[quasi hornet]

||*If can't you sleeping everyday -

• you just will die at one day*||

[sharp kettle]

did you take your meds today? tf ru talking about

i thought i was tired, but your response sure sounds like you havent slept in 55 days

[dusty hill]

don't worry, you can trust me. I will never share your plugins for someone else

[humble iron]

the rock stare really?

[idle plank]

Yu mast sleppp

III like the results bud.

But it would be weird and funny if your Trailers spawn cars lol

[uncut acorn]

If you want, it’s your decision.

[dreamy hearth]

It's up to you, if you want you can keep it private within a small circle

[surreal oasis]

there's always a kid among us

and by kid, i mean one of the 47.2k members of this discord willing to claim your plugin as theirs

Kind of how the Minecraft Bedrock modding scene works

(or at least when it comes to military related content)

[eternal sail]

yep I did it so I could finally put more details in theotown, half the world is worth the proportions compared to a human in theotown

[orchid sorrel]

tampering with the scale is never a good idea

[uncut acorn]

…umm

ok…

[dreamy hearth]

Guess which building I'm working on

[lunar snow]

Some office from philipines

[drifting aspen]

Tried some more vehicle stuff

[crystal sandal]

Ooh i want those

[lunar snow]

Nice

[glad lynx]

sweet

is the mud-road yours too?

[sharp kettle]

Nah

Made by elder wheeler i think

[sharp kettle]

Cool looking

[sharp kettle]

Tbh, dosent it make sense to have some cars driving around

[static sail]

Genuinely love this

[rain gate]

Trying to make a plugin :> It originally only had two lanterns but I thought adding one more would be nice

I don't know if it should be residential or comercial though :[

[midnight obsidian]

it's not to scale

if you compare this to in-game buildings you'll notice your house is pretty big

the width and length are all fine but the height isn't

[rain gate]

Ohh I see, thank you 😄

I guess I should fix it then

[midnight obsidian]

you're welcome

[rough hare]

free building i made you can do whatever you want with it you can even print it and wipe your butt with it and i wouldnt care

[crimson basin]

also off scale

or looks like it at least

[midnight obsidian]

lol

[rough hare]

Maybe better off in the toilet

[crimson basin]

you can fix it, i believe in you

[rough hare]

Thanks kunny

[rain gate]

I have tried to fix it but I have discovered that I don't know how

:'[

It's okay like this?

[orchid sorrel]

no it is not

[rain gate]

Oh

Damn

[rough hare]

I remmeber when i drew pixly made me wanna rip off my scalp so i use ibis paint

its easier tbh

[orchid sorrel]

putting your building on a template does not make it magically smaller

you'd have to redraw the whole thing

[rain gate]

In reality the template was already there, I just deleted it

[rough hare]

ibis paint has a lot of tools i use a filter to give my buildings texture

[rain gate]

Well then I'll draw everything again :]

[orchid sorrel]

it's best to use simple colors first and just draw out the geometry before going on with the details

eh nothing beats aseprite for shapes and paint.net for texturing

[rough hare]

what drawing app do you use

[orchid sorrel]

and mobile is just horrid for anything plugin creation related

[rough hare]

not really

json genie and ibis paint saved me

from insanity

[rain gate]

I use pixly since my phone is so old that when I open ibis paint it just overheats

[orchid sorrel]

I used mobile and I'll never go back to it, I can't imagine doing something on such a small screen

[rough hare]

i use a tablet to make my plugins

i guess use a tablet

[orchid sorrel]

pixly is a rather mediocre piece of software considering how unstable and barebones it is

[rough hare]

if youre more used to the bigger screen

[orchid sorrel]

but I guess there's not much choice for mobile

eh tablet is still tiny

and I prefer mouse

[rain gate]

I'll have to use my computer then, It will be a little more difficult but I don't think I can continue drawing in pixly dhdhd

[rough hare]

ok i gotta go so bye now

[rain gate]

Bye :>

[orchid sorrel]

paint.net is the free windows tool most people use

[orchid sorrel]

nice facelift

[orchid sorrel]

I didn't expect anyone to touch it

[sharp kettle]

i was bored, enjoy lol

[rain gate]

I'll see if I can use it then :>

[trim blade]

I might add to this version

I'll try adding something to the roof

[midnight obsidian]

yea paint.net is an incredible tool

easy to use, simple controls but powerful nonetheless

• plugin support

[sharp kettle]

how to use the game internal sprites for night animation?

[orchid sorrel]

what do you mean "use"

[midnight obsidian]

animation dev tool

ingame night animation sprites have their own ids you can use in your plugins

they work just like custom night animation sprites except you don't have to declare that there's this new sprite

[trim blade]

Do the shadows look right? I forgot the angle of the sun

[midnight obsidian]

yea they're fine

i love thow this plugin became a huge collaborative effort

despite it being a very simple 2x2 building

[trim blade]

I'm debating leaving it there and letting someone else work on it

[vernal dragon]

what to do about it? I changed the ID, since this is a remaster of this plugin, but they don’t let it through

[midnight obsidian]

revert the IDs

cause if you change the ids then the buildings just disappear and that will lead to people complaining that their buildings randomly disappeared and it's just a mess

[sharp kettle]

changing plugin id's causes the old ones to dissapear

yeah

happened to a side parking plugin, my whole city was quite a mess, thankfully i got alot of screenshot to fix it

[vernal dragon]

It's unreal

[orchid sorrel]

what?

[trim blade]

Does anyone else want to add something?

[orchid sorrel]

if making a plugin usable is 'unreal' to you you might want to reconsider your expectations

[rain gate]

It looks very nice 😄

[vernal dragon]

I exchanged them for old ones, but they were still rejected for the same reason

[trim blade]

Ping me if someone else is going to use it. If not I'll add more myself when I get back in about thirty minutes. If someone wants to I'll wait until they added something to add what I want.

[midnight obsidian]

make sure to mention that you reverted the ids to old ones then

[vernal dragon]

Ox, right

[sharp kettle]

is there like a tutorial on forum or videos of the basics of how this works??

[midnight obsidian]

i think there is but i learnt it the hard way

but if you do learn to use it it can be very powerful

[signal lagoon]

https://forum.theotown.com/viewtopic.php?t=12958 for the basic tutorial.

[mystic swallow]

any suggest?

[trim blade]

@echo prairie are you adding something to it?

Or are you saying that it's good?

[echo prairie]

It's good bro 👍

[trim blade]

Oh, in that case I'm going to add more to it. Nobody said they wanted to.

Nvm, I need to do something, again.

😔

[crimson basin]

json genie 😭
after writing jsons the normal way i cannot use json genie, its just so bad

[crimson basin]

the devs recommend to keep the ids and to use alias instead to give it a new id

[stoic echo]

a little something I guess

[midnight obsidian]

another little something i guess

[trim blade]

Doors are nice

[dusty hill]

also added my detail

[sharp kettle]

Lol, ive started something

[trim blade]

There's no shadow for your little entry

Shouldn't be hard to fix, gimme a sec

[midnight obsidian]

There is a shadow

Plus, i generally add shadows after i do structure

[trim blade]

Yeah, it just was hard to see while it was in Discord

@dusty hill the yellow is a bit hard to see, do you want me to keep it?

[idle plank]

Condomenium

Modular Condomenium

[dusty hill]

yea

[dusty hill]

wait...

do i see well the Mindustry Palette

[trim blade]

Yeah

[dusty hill]

i used to do some of the mindustry sprites, but

i retired bcz i got banned on official server

[trim blade]

Skill issue

[dusty hill]

but it's long story and offtopic

[trim blade]

Anyway, I'm trying to find a nice yellow between my work. I don't want to overwrite your work for obvious reasons

I'm liking the plastanium green

[dreamy hearth]

Modular? yes
Condominium? Not at all

[paper river]

Kaunas Town Hall

[urban grove]

I thought it was a church for a second

[orchid scroll]

beautiful

[humble iron]

Beautiful

Now

Tell me if you'll release it

[lunar snow]

[midnight obsidian]

I do not regret checking discord this morning

Great job my man

[crystal sandal]

so cool

[uncut forge]

@paper river there's so much detail there, perfect job

[static sandal]

Opinions for this decal

1. Horrible
2. Horrible but more

[orchid sorrel]

very nice

[lunar snow]

Nice

[orchid sorrel]

you're talking about the tiles?

the random darker tiles are a nice detail

[static sandal]

I think the divisions should be a little clearer

[orchid sorrel]

maybe a bit

try it out

[static sandal]

I think

[idle plank]

Another Police Station in the works: Dense Big Police Station.

This was left in the files for more than 1 year.

[idle plank]

I'll change the Police car into SUV later on

Waiting for approval. For 5 days...

[crimson basin]

So?

have some patience

[idle plank]

I wait

While waiting, I kept myself busy playing the game

[dusty hill]

yeah, patience is very important

[quasi hornet]

Tell me honestly

Why did you choose exactly this building to make it as plugin for Theotown?

Or it's your own design?

I just wondering

[long dust]

holy moly THE CommanderABab replied to my post (and is the only comment 🗿)

[long dust]

dude mine took nearly a month

and the worst part is that it got rejected (but the reapproval for the fixed version was much faster though)

[urban grove]

What's wrong with making a huge giant school for TheoTown

[idle plank]

It's my own design.

[quasi hornet]

Ah then clearly

[frigid tusk]

It's huge for a school 💀
Hope they have a lot of elevators

[quasi hornet]

Nothing... I just haven't seen something like that before

[idle plank]

They have 8 elevators actually. And a stairways as well.

[idle plank]

If they reject a plugin, do they message you of why it was denied?

[humble iron]

Yes

[static sandal]

Lmao me too

I’ll be patient

Maybe the moderators of the store are volunteers.

[crimson basin]

they are

[sharp kettle]

Somewhy eveytime i upload a plugin, its usually only take around a 1-3 days

[sharp kettle]

#plugin-suggestions isnt that silver bean has already been made

i mean

its bigger but yeah

it works ig

i heard it used to float but people got scared

[static sandal]

Maybe like this

The lines

[orchid sorrel]

you either count the pixels manually (horrid) or use image editing software that shows it (brilliant)

do what

[crimson basin]

pretttyyyy

[orchid sorrel]

that's the game's assets

"animated" as in a full fledged animation or just a simple wind frame

also, please read the documentation to learn what those numbers actually mean
