PC "New Block Shapes" in A17 or later?

[SHODAN]

I am obviously looking forward to A17 and all that it changes, enhances and brings... but I do have one question I think hasn't been really covered or asked yet..

Will A17 bring new block "shapes"... or are there plans to add more?

Two examples would be involving ramps and corners.. in this case the "two part ramp"...When placed as shown in the pic below, there currently aren't any "inner corner" ramp pieces.. which in this case are filled with two cubes to show:

Or in this case, when its an "outer corner".. using the ramp blocks vertically, doesn't have a current block to fill the gap:

Finally, a third block set, that I am not sure I can give a good reference to.. a set of blocks meant to sit at 45 degree angles, perhaps referencing the below image from another game.. which in this case is the example of the structure I am trying to recreate:

Example 1: https://www.dropbox.com/s/j9nzjw0vyfsjwq6/S.T.A.L.K.E.R.%20%20Call%20of%20Pripyat%20Scientist%20Bunker%20Corner.jpg?dl=0

Example 2: https://www.dropbox.com/s/3ae8vqtia0nh82h/S.T.A.L.K.E.R.%20%20Call%20of%20Pripyat%20Scientist%20Bunker%20Corner%202.jpg?dl=0

Right now it seems we can do these sort of angles with the 1x1 corner and inner corner blocks.. but its the 2x1 ramps.. and other shapes that I am hoping for....

So yea.. any word on new block types, shapes, or other objects that will be added to the game in A17 or beyond?

Thanks.

Yes, please!

I'm really missing the corners for vertically placed wedges too!

I would also like to see the Stairs 50 to be not creative only. They offer some interesting opportunities combined with wedges and make some good lookin doorways. ^^

You can mod those stairs and add a recipe or add them as an upgrade.

What about online play?

If you run a server you can upload the xml files the changes are on, or if you play on a regular server you can ask the admin to add them in as well.

What about the hundrets of servers where there is no (active) admin?

Modding and xml is nice, but making items craftable really shouldnt be that complicated. Just include them in the base game and everybody wins.

Well that's up to TFP if they want to. My suggestion is find a good server. I have no problem adding small changes like these on my servers.

Yeah I'd love to see a few more shapes in the game.

So long as they leave some empty block ID's for us Modders to work with.

Well when a17 comes out in 10 years you can have pretty much all the blocks you want.
