Long grass like in Minecraft? That doesn't really fit...

I think it's a great idea!

Can we please get back on track? BozoDel, you said about Minetest a few times, did you not? Also, recognise my name?

Hey, suggesting a feature is not offtopic (unless it's an SMG ohioioh).
Yes, I mentioned Minetest once or twice.
And your name sure does ring a bell, but my memory sucks, ye know.

That is true. My point is, the idea of long grass seems bad on maps like mesa, where there is sand.

Anyone want to make a long grass mod just to see how much it'd lag? :D
Do a few strands on every top block, and you should be sorted.

one of the good things about AoS BnS and iceball is that they can run relitivly lag free on old pc's and that wouldn't work with adding grass

IceBall doesn't work on old pc's.

I'd beg to differ. What kind of computer, and what's wrong with the game on it?

[BozoDel]

rakiru said it doesn't use a graphics card. That at least points in the direction of not requiring top notch computers...

Ace of Spades runs much better. But IceBall still works on any computer that comes after 1993

um...
pretty much every game in existence has grass.
and it would add another element of stealth.

sounds pretty fitting to me. long grass was often used for hiding in ww1.

you could choose where the grass went.
the whole map wouldn't be covered in long grass, just patches.(does that solve the massive lag issue?)
If it was a desert map, you could just not have grass.

"Pretty much every game"? That is the biggest exaggeration I've heard/read all day.
It's not going to do a lot for stealth when an enemy's name shows up when you look at them, when you're on the blue team, or when you have to disable grass because your computer can't render it fast enough. It would also require either adding in a block "type" property to each block, or just rendering grass on top of any block that's green.

This isn't WW1 though - it's a voxel shooter with weapons that resemble WW1.
