So people aren't allowed a break from the game without dying? By that logic pause menus shouldn't work
@Kirby - By that logic, the Pause Menu shouldn't even be in the game. And he is right, it would be a bit more immersive if the game didn't pause.

Using the right mouse button to activate/deactivate selected items, and the scroll wheel and/or number buttons at the top of the keyboard to select items in inventory. Similarly to Minecraft.
The current inventory is fine as is. It's had its many bugs ironed out, it really doesn't need a huge change.
@Zack - Kirby is right. A Hotbar would be stupid, since all you need to do is double click something in your inventory.

Not sure a D-Class is athletic enough to jump. On a serious note, if you want jumping, there's the SCP Fan Breach mod.
@Kirby - Yes, because there can be no use for jumping at all, nothing to be added, nope! And the Fan-Breach mod doesn't even have a capable form of jumping. It just teleports you in the air a few feet, and you glide down.
@Zack - While it would be useless, it would be cool if you were able to jump over some things. I mean, shits got to be toppled over, everyone's scrambling to get out of the facility.
KirbyMario12345 wrote:Zackonark wrote:>It feels too rigid. This could be compensated by adding animations to every little item or by allowing the player to pick up and throw items laying around the facility.
This is SCP Containment Breach, not Garry's Mod. There are many items in the game and adding little animations to every one of them would take a few major updates. (Over a year)
@Kirby - What does Garry's Mod have to do with this? And why would it take over a year, and a few major updates? If Regalis, and some animator on the forums put their mind to it, an option for full body first-person and first-person animations could be done quickly. Besides, all he was saying was some animations for things like putting a Keycard into a slot, or pressing a button. Even picking items up from shelves. That would clearly take a year and a few major updates.

The maps are already randomly generated, although restricted to a point where you won't get an impossible mish-mash of rooms. One of Blitz 3D's selling points is random map generation.
@Kirby - Uh, no, B3D's selling point isn't Random room-generation, where did you get that. It's a simplified version of Basic, quote the language name as "BlitzBasic".
KirbyMario12345 wrote:Zackonark wrote:>I also believe that the zones need to be broken up by elevators. They could be loading points where sections of the map are spawned in or eliminated, improving frame rate and eliminating the need for teleportation which causes a lot of problems.
At this current time, that's not that big of an issue. Perhaps a few bug fixes will fix any present problems.
@Kirby - Little did you know, the Frame-Rate thing, and the teleportation problem is a thing. If you walk inside an elevator when teleporting, you fall through it, even though it's a slight chance. Frame-rate is an issue too, on some PC's, and eliminating parts of the map would be a good idea, since the map just loads shit like the maintenance tunnels into it. Gate B just spawns when the doors shut to the elevator and you start "moving".
@Zack - It's not needed, but it does seem something that can be cool when done. I was thinking sort of a split map like Half-Life. Loading-levels, and such.

Oh no.. MEDIIIIIIIIC! THIS MAN HASN'T READ THE
THREAD ABOUT WEAPONS... Ahem.. the thread explains why firearms will not be in game. There is also the
FAQ, which you should have read. But if you want firearms, PXLSHN is creating a
Nine-Tailed Fox Mod which is currently a work in progress.
@Kirby - You didn't need to be an ass. He probably already read it too, it's not hard to miss. He probably skipped over it. And while PXLSHN is making the mod, it would still be cool to play CB as a Class-D who has a fucking brain and picks up a gun to defend himself from shit like the MTF.

Wat.
It's not just a map, it's a radar.
Juanjpro's Irrlicht Engine Port has/will have a map, just wait for the game's official release, he'll announce it when it's done.
@Kirby - Little do you know, it is a map. It becomes a radar AND a map when you put it into 914 on Very Fine.
@Zack - While your idea is cool, it wouldn't make that much sense, since employees use the SNAV (apparently) to get out, or to do things across the facility.

I actually agree. I think Reg commented on a video made by TheVolgun, that he was creating an SCP game (Good ol SCP Containment Breach) and that he was going to use a tape recorder and he wanted permission to use the interview that Volgun made. However, Reg never added a tape recorder in-game.
@both - Agreed.
KirbyMario12345 wrote:Zackonark wrote:>shadows need to be added in.
Blitz3D doesn't support shadows. Again, Juanjpro's Irrlicht Engine Port will support shadows, so just look out for that.
@Kirby - Uh, B3D supports shadows, it's just hard to do with DirectX7.
@Zack - Yeah, I think that would be cool
