RE: [RANT] No Winning With Lets Players

One thing I take extreme care to do is what I have dubbed "idiot proofing" my maps (no offense to LPers though). It's basically doing the most illogical things, such as intentionally trying to cause bugs or look in the most ridiculous of places for clipping textures.

Ideally, in your case you'd create a logical reason as to why the player couldn't jump over the fence (although it's hard to visualize what you mean through your description), you could add spikes at the top (and a collide callback to cause damage) or add wooden boards from "static objects/debris" in addition to the block box.

I think that as modders, because we know how everything works, we can sometimes over complicate things when there are simple solutions.

TL;DR: its the modder's fault, not the player.

I rate it 3 memes.
