Place & Play

Base sections
There are 4 base sections Red, Blue, Green & Yellow.

Doorways
Door counts are decided by the group of players participating. Players can also change the shape of the door instead of just using the standard doorways provided or even add windows and drop downs all kinds of interlinking pathways to connect each section.

How to play
Place & Play is quite simple to understand and participate in. You can play it by yourself, with one friend or with a group of three friends, or as many as you wish. The standard player count is four.

Rules & Guidlines
The rules and guidelines are very simple. If you are playing with three other people, you are each given a base section either Red, Blue, Yellow or green so a max of four sections for four players. You and your friends are tasked with creating a section of the map individually, making sure that you include the door ways in your design, it's very important that you include the doors so that the map works. You are not allowed to build outside of the base perimeter, you are not allowed to build inside of another persons section unless you are given approval. This is usually something you would do at the end when everyone has built their section, just to finalise the map. This goes the same for player, weapons and other spawn points. Be mindful of the placement limit. But overall this is a pretty flexible game that you and your mates can play.

The great thing about this concept is that you can put the section of the map that you made up for download, so other people can get your section of the map and you can get their's, giving you a large library of section that you can place and remove while experimenting and creating new ideas and maps using this concept. If you and your friends create something using this, tag it with " #Place&Play " so I can check it out and others can easily get hold of your map or sections.

This is supposed to work like a game my Dad, Bro and myself played, pretty sure other people played this but you basically fold a piece paper in three pieces one person draws the head, one draws the torso and one draws the legs, you're not allowed to see what the other person draws, so when you unfold the picture you have this crazy character. I was going to add this element of surprise so you'd each create the section of the map without seeing so when you put it together, you make this crazy map. I hope this works and people use this and create some crazy, but functional maps.

Example
I didn't have anyone to play with but I made one section of the map to demonstrate how it works, sorry it's a bit messy but I hope you'll get the idea.

This is th top few of the sections that I preplaced the doorways.


This is it with the section of the map that I made.



Hopefully people will use this in someway.
I'll add this up for download when it allows me.

 

Agreed. Thanks, I really hope it does kick off, it would be interesting to see how other people incorporate new ideas to it.

 

Unfortunately for those looking to start now I am unable to save any prefabs or the map, anything with saving or editing the name/description won't allow me, it continually states that I am unable to save at this time I've tried a few solutions but it's still not working I'll give it a try later, the best thing I can do is give you the blocks that I used to get started. If you do make a map section please tag it so anyone who's looking for it can find it easily find it. #Place&Play or #P&P is fine. Make sure to add the colour of the section that you created in the name or description either Red, Blue, Green or Yellow.


Each base section is made from 9 Block simple [16x32x32] in the shape of a puzzle piece


Should look like the above pictures shown.

The door ways are made from 6 Block simple [4x4x16] together to form a rectangle


The colours that are used.

Blue = liberty

Red = base 1(reference)

Yellow = User 3 (reference)

Green = Light green


But I'd say maybe the best thing to do is wait until I can publish mine so it's not so chaotic when it comes to mergeing pieces together because the door may be different compared to others, it may not matter because you could download someone else and build on it. I don't know, I wish it would just let me publish this so it wasn't such a hassle. Sorry for the inconvenience, hopefully I'll have this all sorted out. Hope this can make do for now.

 

Also you could probably shorten the amount of blocks placed by switching around some longer pieces that will take the place of 2 blocks instead of having the extra pieces like the vertical pieces for the door ways.

 

I'll try would an xbox game clip do? I don't exactly have any recording equipment. I really do want to get some videos out about this to further explain it. Thanks for taking interest in it.
