So I was developing a GKC map, and I came across a question that is vital to the maps continued development: When you’re making your maps, what are the most frustrating things you’ve ever had to do?
I don’t mean things that are difficult, I mean things where you go “Oh, I wish there was a better way to do this”. For example, flipping a very large selection of props to all face the other way.
This is related to my map, so any stories/ideas/other things about frustrating experiences you’ve had building would be deeply appreciated.
Hmm… probably when I forgot to change the settings for a trigger before I started to duplicate it, so I had to change each trigger individually. Also, when I forgot to change the collision in a coral rug so I had about 500 coral pieces WITH COLLISION and I had to start over.
Seeing what’s floor and what’s wall and easily erasing accidentally placed walls instead of having to spend 6 trillion years (and overnight story) differentiating between floors and walls.
Liking every comment because all of these are so true
But probably mass-option-changing
or
When you build a giant structure out of terrain then realise all of them were set to floor instead of wall so you need to start all over (a way to mass-change terrain)
Oh, and grouping… for props and barrier art. It’s so annoying I swear for example if I have a mountain with like a bunch of props and barriers, but it’s on top of a grass emoji carpet thing, I can’t copy the mountain cause I’ll end up copying the grass too
And layering in the layers section, I have to keep clicking and clicking the arrow and I wish I could drag each item up.
Adding onto that, I think we need like, a different layers system that you can use personally during editing so you can move and interact with things under large barriers or decoration.
Ohh, and I hate when it resets some of your deletion settings when you close out the eraser tab so next time you erase you have to redo all the settings.
When copying multiple devices with block code, and it only copies the block code on the device you used in that selection, replacing whatever code was originally on the other devices with the copied code of the one device.
Being blocked from a game multiple times, disconnecting for no reason, and after that, the Editing options don’t save, there is no Permanent Editing settings, and not having categories on props
It’s actually kind of funny how many things are annoying in GKC
