Re: ROCK FREAKING PAPER SCISSORS

In Response To: Re: ROCK FREAKING PAPER SCISSORS (pete_the_duck)


: Because the swords can't intersect themselves. I probably could have done it
: if I reverted to Halo 3's method of merging (put one not to spawn at
: start, put the other, wait for the first to spawn).. but that would
: require really precise placement and much trial-and-error, because I'd
: have to position it so that it intersects with a sword that hasn't
: appeared yet and a block that isn't in place yet (since you can't merge a
: sword into a block, only a block into a sword).

: So, yeah--I had considered making a pair of scissors by having two swords,
: with only half of each sword visible. I would have looked cool. It would
: have taken forever (I'd have had to do it 4 times too).

: I also considered making scissors out of other objects..nothing looked really
: good and nothing stood out as well as the energy sword. And nobody is
: going to get confused about what the energy sword represents, so I went
: with it.

: My brain is fried--so much went into making this thing happen. I could go on
: and on about all the problems I had and solutions I had to sort out when
: putting this together. On. And on.

: Oh, and thanks! :D :D

You're welcome. I just thought I would nitpick something and give you a hard time about it :) The sword absolutely works. No need for the extra effort - diminishing returns and whatnot.
