If you could add 1 thing and only 1 thing to forge, what would it be? I would add a floor option so you could place floors at fixed heights without having to place stuff then put stuff on top then go back and delete the stuff underneath. Making multileveled maps would be so much easier and could lead to great possibilities.
interesting. umm... probably the removal of the budget and item limits. I can see the need for a budget, but each map's budget is too tight. If one item uses a lot of processor power, make it cost more! But I don't see why I can't have more boxes and walls in foundry, since I'm not using the wraith or flamethrower, so a couple boxes can't hurt. (although, after doing the money glitch, making a huge pile of crap in the middle of foundry sure does slow things down. but the limits are still too tight.
A switch to set things to be either immovable or movable. Like a crate, you could set it to either move, or be a static object.
in the forge, the world plays out in real time, meaning that the wheel on Zanzibar turns, gravlifts propel you and teleporters are usable, turning off real time would be stoppping time so that none of this happened, in my opinion it would make placing gravlifts and teleporters a bunch easier, it would also prevent people from joining on and then killing you when you tried to place objects
a map that is completely square "no crappy geometry" and blank on all walls. You can set the size of the map and even the texture of each individual wall with texture presets. THIS WOULD BE AWESOME
I would like the option to turn off/on physics. Alternative: I wouldn't mind the monitor being able to go higher than the invisible roof on foundry.
I would looooooove AI's in forge maps. I could do so much with these, and make so many maps. But I doubt this will come a reality. Too much programming. Alt: Being able to place any object on any map. Why can't I have a radio on Foundry? Why can't I have flamethrower on LR?
That would be really cool. I hate the shape of Foundry because when I try to create a straight wall in a cirtain area, the walls kinda slanted.
New skins for the objects. Not heaps neccecarily, but a choice would be nice. Im getting pretty sick of seeing the same old green boxes and rusty walls. Oh and water! That would be cool
Death barriers would be awesome! you could lay them on the floor to stop people getting out of your maps or to make people have to stay on objects
Most of the main desired features have been mentioned, so I'll just list something no one has mentioned yet. So, what I'd liked to see is the ability to control the respawn conditions on objects. I don't like it when something respawns because it's been damaged or moved slightly, so it would be nice to control those conditions.
just set the respawn time to never. i would like to be able to set power or strength for individual items. indestructable things. a weak spartan laser, a strong plasma pistol. this would also include the weight of each object. how easy do u want the object to move. these would make balancing maps much easier.
