| Title: | Spam reducer | | Summary: | Brick Spam Reducer | | Author: | Red_Guy | | Submitted By: | HansonBot | | Date Submitted: | Sat Apr 10, 2010 9:57 pm | | Description: | Spam Reducer
Spam reducer does 2 things:
1) prevent people from building REALLY REALLY tall towers
2) prevent builds from containing too many 1x1 or 1x1x5 bricks
TOWERS
The default values for tower prevention are 75 for normal user and 250 for admin.
This does not mean 75 or 250 bricks tall. This is the actual in game height coordinate of the brick. Each brick is 0.6 units tall, so a tower starting at a height of 0 needs to be quite tall before it gets 75 units tall.
Some maps may need the height values adjusted for this addon to work properly. If you get errors placing bricks on the ground,
then adjust the value of $Pref::Server::BrickHeight and $Pref::Server::AdminBrickHeight accordingly
ANTI-SPAM
Spam Reducer also helps prevent builds from using too many "spammy" bricks. The defaults are the 1x1 and 1x1x5 bricks. The numbers in the file are percentages - not absolute values. A big build by an experienced builder will use 1x1 and 1x1x5 bricks. The bigger the build the more bricks will be used, but the percentage of the total bricks used will be fairly low.
Scenario 1: a big build
player puts down a baseplate (brick count = 1)
player puts down 50 1x12x5 bricks (brick count = 51)
player puts down a 1x1 (brick count = 52)
a single 1x1 brick out of 52 total bricks is only 2% of the total, so no error is displayed
Scenario 2: a "spammy" build
player puts down a baseplate (brick count = 1)
player puts down a 1x1 (brick count = 2)
now, since the single 1x1 is half (50%) of the player's total build, they will see an error message: "Error: Too many brick1x1Data bricks. Max % is 20 of total. You are at 50 Use other bricks instead"
