    Here are a couple of my ideas for sticknodes

    IDEA 1:

    LYP SYNCING:

    There are 3 modes to this: simple, repeat, and full set. Simple is what it sounds like when a sound is heard the mouth opens and closes. Repeat does the same thing except it is more than just 2 frames. And the full set uses voice recognition to calculate the type of mouth needed, but it may need an internet connection. Just like movie clips, it embeds the figure along with the sound (you might need to increase the minimum storage).

    __________________________________________ 

    IDEA 2:

    Auto or manual file manager:

    (It is either embedded into stick nodes or in another app). Because every time we download a pack, you have to unzip the file, take the figure out and put it in the stick figures file. Its a lot of work and would be very useful to have this feature. Just like MCPE master, you click the zip files and it does the rest, taking the files out of the zip file and out of the folder and inserting it into your stick figure collection

    IDEA 4:

    Mega alpha/masking:

    In backgrounds, the stick figure cannot really interact with it. But mega alpha puts a certain PART of the background as another layer and in front of the stick figure if wanted. Layer order, the wall, the stick figure. The door, the back wall. (There’s only 2 figures yet multiple layers. Like Masking!

    __________________________________________ 

    IDEA 5:

    Stickfigure dimensions and stretching:

    Like pasting a picture, you can make it stretched as in wide along with different dimensions like in a 3d model.

    __________________________________________ 

    IDEA 6:

    Multiple movie clip selections:

    Import multiple movie clips instead of doing it one by one, which is aggravating

    __________________________________________ 

    IDEA 7:

    Update voting (for your website):

    Having trouble finding out what new feature to add? Ask the public, with a new section on the website, people can upload their own idea and even vote for their favorite update ideas and whichever is top or to your liking, is to be a thing! Just like in Microsoft world’s update voting.

    __________________________________________ 

    IDEA 8:

    Particles:

    Particles! Him, this one is beautiful but hard to make and find, especially if it has randomizing parts, so why not make it a feature. Different particles like in geometry dash full, there are particles that leave behind a trail, its beautiful!

    __________________________________________ 

    IDEA 9:

    (I hope your ready for this one, it may be difficult, but will be a much-liked improvement) Multitasking render:

    Instead of waiting for your animation to export/render, you can choose to hide it and keep working. It makes a copy of the current project and exports THAT in the background while you are getting much more done at the same time, possibly catching errors you made, making it longer, or simply creating a new project instead of watching a stickman infinitely run around a progress bar, which wastes a lot of time, especially for people who like to get things done

    __________________________________________ 

    And finally idea 10:

    Gradient blurs:

    It’s exactly what it sounds like and could be pretty useful for some animations

    11: Clipping offset

    Position an object to the JUUUST right position, which is what I meant to say earlier but I was a thing too fast

    __________________________________________

    12: Curving

    You can have the option to be able to curve an part of a stick figure. Or line, probably a good idea if you want a tail to wag or something, which is relatively hard I do without the sharp edges.

    __________________________________________

    13: different types of blurs

    Mosaic, zooming blur, circle, etc

    __________________________________________

    14: Layers

    Makes it much better to do things, you can merge projects with onion skins of the previous one while you only work on a single one. Useful if there are multiple characters with unique movements

    • Idea 5, smart-stretch
      Stickfigures can be made to replace your trail idea.

    • Just tare it and throw it away

      2019-11-13 01:45:55 UTC 0
    • Idea 1:
      Just use Movieclips ya fuckin’ idiot, you can add sounds to them as well, and how would the damn feature detect Mouths? This isn’t Detroit: Become Human

      For Idea 2:
      It’s only pressing 3 Buttons ya lazy *ss

      For Idea 4:
      There’s a much better name than Mega Alpha

      For Idea 5:
      This ain’t Adobe Flash m8, AND THERE’S SOMETHING CALLED SMART-STRETCH

      For Idea 6:
      Have you tried pressing the Animated Button instead of Single-Frame

      For Idea 7:
      Great idea, but @ralph will probably decline everything

      For Idea 8:
      Great idea, but how the hell would they work?

      For Idea 9:
      Since when did Mobile Devices work like a PC?

      For Idea 10:
      Gradient Blurs, the f*ck would that look like?

      For Idea 11:
      What?

      For Idea 12:
      Ooh! I have a much better Idea! F*ckin’ round segments!

      For Idea 13:
      Do you know how long it’s gonna take to code that?

      For Idea 14:
      Ze what?

        almost every one of these counterarguments includes an unnecessary insult or passive-aggressive remark

          No need to add extra insults just cause.

        dude, im going to have to ask you to be quite, and stop, you are being rude, aggressive, and you are insulting very badly.

    • i don’t know if some of these will work, but i think this idea is awesome, i think gradient blur, curving, particles, multitasking render would be AWESOME, however multitasking is kinda like a 3d animation software for pc, but i still think 2d high quality stuff would be awesome!

    • 1. Boi you need to RIG the mouth to do that first, and app wont even detect it. And also even if it did it would be only one specific stick and app would be 100mb heavier
      2. This is literally been addded for months, just open zip with Stick Nodes.
      4. Been asked a lot, no due to renderer and lag issues
      5. lol @ 3d, you mean free transform? It would be too tricky to deal with when you want to transform and move nodes at the same time? This would bronk everything. I only see this in movieclips being doable.
      6. You can import multiple sticks/movieclips wat is the issue it’s just point 2 again-
      7. Ralph has like… A massive trello to-do list. Everything organised (or not) across updates. When he gets new idea he puts it on to-do, later update or early update depending on how much it will take to do and how useful would it be. (Notice how movieclips basically took half a year)
      8. Lag, bruh I do particles with movieclips. Just make them play at different angle, interval and few variations. Boom, it’s almost random.
      9. It specifically tells you to not do anything else while animation exports. It just makes your phone bronk and skip important line of code that bronks the rest of the export or stops it completely. Also it’s gonna mess up even harder when people edit frames that weren’t even exported yet. As well as biggest issue… Exporting uses a lot of cpu, it was done that way to export as fast as it can (with mobile app limit too). That cpu is also used when animating, clicking, rendering filters etc. That idea is just bunch of mess that won’t even work out well-
      10. Blur is wonky filter that Ralph did, it’s just the stick being offset around original with applied transparency. It isn’t even good-
      But what you’re kinda suggesting is like blank colour… Which is another issue in itself with renderer- Directional blur seems to be added next tho.
      11. How is it really supposed to tell where do you want to snap it tbh. All it can do for you is snap to axis.
      12. I feel really bad for putting down all of these but this was also discussed, same as hollow circles. Another renderer issue.
      13. See point 10
      14. “No” -Ralph

      I said a lot about renderer but if you really feel like trying to understand what I mean by that I can explain it how it works lol. But in short, everything is made out of triangles. Rectangle? 2 triangles, Circle? Triangles, Triangles? Triangles. All these curves and stuff would just require crapton of triangles that wouldn’t just drop the f bomb and offset from eachother

        dude actually emailed me these suggestions the other day and I replied similar to you, but a lot more “no” + some “sorry about saying no a lot” type of talk lmao

        • Replying to: Ralph (Developer)dude actually emailed me these suggestions the other day and

          i will create a idea list, but i will try to make it as accurate to sticknodes stuff as possible. (and i will make stuff for the site too)

            because half of it are wild fever dreams the other half is written like i was drunk when i wrote them which is entirely possible and the last half is a secret

    • Wow, I didn’t expect an entire discussion about this. And PS: I don’t say they where good ideas, I just said here are a couple ideas, that doesn’t mean they have to work out..
