Gravity

Interesting support system in the game Star Rupture - need a ground support every four blocks, but given that the property system is built on claims (5x5 plots), and considering the fact that the most popular warehouse is also 5x5x5, I can't imagine how such a system could be usefully implemented. Also, a fixed distance between supports would hinder player creativity, and all buildings over one floor would become uniformly aligned with the support grid.

There is gravity already, players, vehicles, animals are not floating in the sky, even wood and stones are falling when cut. What could be a nice visual improvement is to have some support rules for placing/removing blocks, checking for adjacent blocks. It could depend on the building material, to be able to make nice roofs, overhangs, but no floating roads or dirt.

I like this idea because going through a realistically generated world and seeing floating structure kind of kills the immersion and just looks ugly, but I think it would be a complex thing to change and do right.

I my opinion it would be too complex and it wouldn't be Eco anymore :x I mean.. it's not even possible to die.

Pancake storages and one-tile flying bridges drive me crazy!
