Player Blockers

Note

Available starting at version v0.5

A blocker is a special component to limit the player movement over it (the player cannot cross the blocker area). If you don’t add a blocker part Age of Joy will create one around the cabinet.

It is useful for bigger cabinets for example or cabinets where the player can be inside.

You can add one or more blocker components to your model to delimit two or more areas.

Tip

The blocker is used to calculate the base of your model to put the cabinet on the floor, so you should align it to the base of your cabinet. The last blocker in the CDL parts list is used for that (remember you can have as many blocker parts as you need)

How to add a Blocker

This example creates a simple blocker in Blender

Assign the blocker

To assign the blocker to your model you should declare it in CDL the Cabinet Description Language

description.yaml

parts:
  - name: blocker1
    type: blocker

Note

The blocker part of your model will be removed. The user will not be able to see it and cannot cross its limits.
