New Terrain, and Parts, and Built-In Materials, Oh my!

titanicchicken · January 21, 2021, 12:32am

Some kind of metal material like this would be nice.

orange4477dev · January 21, 2021, 12:48am

Some of the materials are open for the beta testers.

littleluke96 · January 21, 2021, 12:58am

Those are just the current terrain materials…?

orange4477dev · January 21, 2021, 1:04am

The snow, glacier, limestone, pavement, asphalt, and basalt have always been in it? Or did I read your reply wrong?

littleluke96 · January 21, 2021, 1:09am

This proves they were a thing before this announcement.

orange4477dev · January 21, 2021, 1:12am

I’ve never seen them before, or I haven’t edited terrain in months.

vrs2210 · January 21, 2021, 7:13am

they’ve been there for ages by now, they’re not new at all sadly.

These are all the original materials. No one at this point in time (excluding the people who are working on this and perhaps a selected few beta testers) has this feature.

Did you not see how he had wooden planks in the terrain people? I’m pretty sure those are one of the materials that is being added to terrain.

EDIT: NVM.

cunpliy · January 21, 2021, 5:09pm

That was always there for ages. It was there since smooth terrain was first even added

SimonEnderB · January 21, 2021, 11:52pm

Like cunpliy said, wooden planks are an original material. The list in the picture is unchanged and the same as its always been.

Also this material request seems unnecessary but could have a use for some devs.

Glow Material or glow intensity for neon material.

The glow intensity or glow material should do the old neon behavior back in 2018.

Should work similar to old neon (all colors glow) and the old neon glow in Legacy for people who still want that old neon look.

littleluke96 · January 22, 2021, 8:18pm

I don’t know if I’m crazy or not but I swear I remember people talking about it being added “soon” like a year ago, but it never was. I think a good amount of people would appreciate this and especially those building cities.

SimonEnderB · January 22, 2021, 8:23pm

Perhaps you meant a month ago. This has only been out since Dec. 20th. Also, my reasoning for them taking a little while is because when you read it carefully, they give a list of materials they would LIKE to add, meaning that they probably haven’t started on the new materials.

Edit: I realized you were talking about the neon. I would also love to see a neon that actually makes ALL colors glow.

Need this, i love all of this, want to play with it in beta, but don’t see how to activate it.

SimonEnderB · January 23, 2021, 1:58am

Unfortunately, you can’t yet. In the future, there will be a separate post to opt-in.

leea354 · January 23, 2021, 3:08am

I hope we can opt-in in the future that would be amazing.

ittrgrey · January 23, 2021, 7:30am

Regular reminder that you cannot opt-in yet, please stop attempting to.

LeVadamE · January 23, 2021, 7:32am

Understood, ittrgrey. I didnt see the other reminders.

hardlycool · January 24, 2021, 5:49pm

Love it. terrain is gonna be way more realistic.
