I dig this Game (tentative title) development thread

[Previous]

I mean, you can dig five blocks after placing the first column!! that doesn't sound fair; I know that the dirt is being supported on both ways, but I am thinking on a way to nerf the column a bit. I planned having to use it each two steps or so, not 5 by 5.

if it is not possible, I'll have to consider a bigger playboard.

Everything is possible when your man smells like old spice and not a lady.

I can easily tweak it so there's a maximum of two free blocks between two columns. A maximal gap of only one block would require a little bit more work.

One question though, this came to my mind when thinking about those one block gaps:

Code:

Digits represent common blocks like Dirt with their respective stability level. Blocks wioth 0 would fall.

  10
321
32
3

But how about this:

Code:

Same as above.

  101
321 123
32   23
3     3

That's basically the reason one block gaps between columns are not possible right now. If you want that block to be supported, I could try to find a way.
