So I’ve been playing around in forge and I have a few suggested objects to add to the palette.
- Non physical skybox objects: Ever try creating your own map background in forge mode? It can be difficult, expensive, and inefficient. It would be nice to be able to take use certain objects from the background skybox and put them in the background of our own maps. I’m talking about ships, mountains, islands, and other 3D skybox entities. This is the kind of stuff you can place in the background of your map without having to use blocks and other physical objects that could be used elsewhere.
- additional letter decals: Having letters is nice, but I would also like the rest of the alphabet to be able to spell stuff like ISAF and other words.
- An offline mode: I’m sure this has been asked for numerous times, but I would like to be able to play this game without the need for an internet connection. Maybe this could be expanded on in the future to allow offline and Peer-to-Peer connections for multiplayer. The servers will inevitably shut down. When that happens, I don’t want to lose everything I’ve put into this game.
- Fix terrain optimization. I’m not sure if this is a fact of the game or if this is a bug, but terrain objects, especially rocks tend to destroy the Physics Budget. If something can be done about this 343, please fix it. If not, ignore this one.
- Trait Zones: I’m not sure why these weren’t already here.
- Large flat terrain background sprites. Basically flat objects (trees, fauna, foliage) that you place on top of fake mountains or in the background of a map for a little extra detail.
- Simple rocks that take up less of the physics budget.
If anyone has any suggestions or other ideas, comment below
