    tag/credit feature


    This would work in the comments box to alert the user being mentioned
    this would keep conversations running without the need to open the site

    This would also work in the description to show the user you are giving them credit.

    smaller walls.

     

    I would like the size of the wall to go smaller that it already does as sure dmnd is great but it still conducts heat.
    i would like this for all types of walls

    No text limit on signs.
    Putting any text into saves as of now is time consuming and sloppy with no text limits on signs it would make things so much easier to add things like instructions.

    The ability to pick a sign type

     

    I can see there is temp and spark signs although when i click on a sign it should ask me what type spark or temp or normal ect.

     

    friends list


    a simple idea of a friends list so you can keep up to date with what your favorite users or friends are doing on powder.

    Thanks for reading guys and i apologize for the poor grammer.

    Where would mentions be shown? If I put "Stuff from @manics used in this save" in the description, would it send a notification similar to the "a new version is available" thing, or would there be a new area for these?

    Walls shouldn't be any smaller than they are. Walls are on another grid which is 4x4, along with several other things. You can create something smaller by layering DMND and FRME to create a two pixel wall.

    The next version of TPT has a larger sign limit. You can try it out in my new betas / snapshots. Unlimited might not be a good idea ... we don't want text only saves made with signs.

    I assume by "The ability to pick a sign type" you mean that when you place a sign you can click a button to decide what type of save it is? If so, I really like that idea, I had plans to add it to my mod + the android port. That makes signs a bit easier to work with on a touchscreen.

    Not sure on the friends list thing, but it could be nice. I had ideas for being able to "follow" users and be able to see any new / updated saves from them. I guess an "is this user online" thing would be nice ...

    So yeah for the notifications I would like to see it as a little pop up.
    and as for the friends list seeing who is online would be great and being able to message them or open a kind of chat like interface in powder would be amazing. I would like to see this done with groups maybe too so when you join a group you know who is also a member and who is online as i think this will encourage people to help eachother on saves.

    And as for the sign i think we are talking about the same thing im thinking i click on "make a sign" then choose a type

    I like the thing with the signs, that drives me nuts :P But you know that you can just put INSL in the middle of DMND to block temperature right? And add PUMP to stop pressure as well.
