Hi again!
I have next question for you guys related to 0.0.3 update.
The update introduced element named "half pipe" which looks (at least to me) like holder open on both ends, which allows for creating gutter-like systems.
One of the traits of mentioned element is its smooth / low friction surface (its even stated in its tooltip).
So having that in mind are we satisfied ? Im asking if i should remove all requests about smooth surface from my list, or keep them on it, because we want something more than that.
This is basically the same question i asked about keymapper.
I need your feedback to keep the list relevant and maintainable, and also useful for devs and all interested users.
Thanks in advance.

I dunno about this one. I definitely like it but although it serves that purpose, personally, it's simply not flexible enough to be a solution to everyone's needs. It's too bulky and can not be easily manipulated. Though in no means am I saying I don't like it!

It eh, is decent but eh... kinda a pain. add a bendier version maybe?... I dunno it needs a groove to it- its sorta.... eh... i cant even describe but it should have another slope like version because so far its useful but eh... a pain to move projectiles and such around in a straight line formation only.

Heavens no. It's just a start is all. Just one smooth surface off the top of my head would be a layer kind of like bracers but it's a single smooth sheet that covers the wood. Options and variety are always nice especially for something like this.
I'd point out that the half-pipes aren't even ideal as they are, the spheres don't like to roll on them very well. They just sort of roll in place with a slow movement along the pipe, without severe inclines or pistons set to actively drive them along.

I mean in terms of look and placement, not necessarrily exactly armor panels. Not so much, I'm referring to the way bracers are placed. You click one block and drag to another and it fills the space. Were it to behave as armor it would be more clunky, as even as-is it can be a pain to fill the spaces you want filled unless you entirely use the small squares. This sort of placement would lend itself more to creating angles, such as slides, without messing with flat surfaces either. |

The half pipe is fine, but it should be a liiiiiitle bit wider so boulder/balls can roll in it better.
