Hi,
is it planned to add collision to braces?
Cheers
Lari

I hope I speak for everyone when I say, "NOOOOOOOOOOOO!" yes you do. Braces are the best thing ever right now. |

I understand you prefer to have them as they are? ;D But to have a metal structure just pass through other material, can't be right. Its a physics based game. So shouldn't all materials have collision?
What would be the downside?

I wonder if it's at all possible for them to have a boundary box, in Kerbal Space Program (same engine) you have the same kind of item, and they don't collide either.
The fact that they make a beam in any direction thinkable may have to do with this but I'm not sure.

We are looking at braces, we feel they are a bit overused by people at the moment. Often players will jsut spam them everywhere.

Right. And in a "sandbox no limits" mode that should be no problem. But I am guessing there will soon be limits to how many parts can be used to finish a level. Either by number of parts or by some kind of budget (gold?). Making a structure stable without making it consist entirely of brackets is part of the challenge. Strategically placing them is unnecessary if theres no limit to them. But that kinda OT..  SO: I see how they are good the way they are for building certain things. But them having no collision just feels weird. |

While I have seen players spam braces everywhere for no apparent reason, I will argue that braces are extremely necessary , with wood (in it's current form) being so prone to breaking/crumpling. It's used so much because people deem it necessary to keep the wood together. This can be eliminated almost completely by using invulnerable blocks like pistons, springs, or the new ballast block instead of wood. Then the only thing you need braces for is to eliminate wobble. |
