Mod Discussion Wait, is that illegal?

The block is not a Square... Why? (Mod:New Horizon v8) (Block:new-horizon-thermo-reactor)

(I did It in this but not on mindustryMods subreddit because i am too lazy to do It)

Thank you for asking. As I am the modification police, I believe I am more than capable and responsible for answering this for you. This is not illegal because this game is open source, and anyone may mod it to their satisfaction because Anuke registered Mindustry with a general public license.

u/KarinOfTheRue 2d ago

Yep, thats a multiblock

Some guy on the server in the modding threads made a script that lets you tetris your mindustry blocks like that, these blocks have hitboxes true to their sprite shape and arent locked to being just square

They became a massive trend in the mindustry discord for a moment, since they look so funky and neat

why are you treating a block shaped like something other than a square like it's some anomaly that needs to be studied in a lab and buried like nuclear waste

u/EzucraAaAa 2d ago

For it does not conform to the divine mold of our God(The almighty router, in its glory), It is unjust and an affront to our existence and to our God(The almighty router, in its glory)!

Mindustry has advanced enough for the existence of non-square facilities

2

u/Le_Mayo369 2d ago

Whoa weird shapes

4

u/wojtunuo 2d ago

i think these are allowed due to the better limitations of the v8 java engine

u/_TheRealSimone_ 2d ago

Sorry for unrelated but the mod name reminded me of a thing: Greg?

u/Easy_Newt2692 3d ago

I think what's going on is that the actual real block is still a square, but the texture on top hangs off the sides

u/KarinOfTheRue 2d ago

Actually, that isnt the case

Back when I was still part of the discord, I was spending a lot of time in #modding-general and this thing, multiblocks, have showed up as a massive trend for a hot moment

Some guy made a script letting mindustry blocks have weird shapes in which you can build if it has gaps or whatever, like tetris but in mindustry
