Thank you for the info. Will they trigger the mesh warning?

The real question is, do we have a pie emoji?
I’m not personally a fan of emojis in any capacity, and I think they are an eyesore on these otherwise beautiful worlds. But I am happy for those who do enjoy these. It’d be nice to have more /Boundless/ ones. Glyph emojis, anyone?

Did we get a answer on the release of these wonderful new additions
You see what me see

I did make a post asking for them in block form recently. Plan to bring it whenever I get a chance to talk in person again. We should have the space in the block space for something like this especially if we keep it simple like the same character on each side or just 1 side.

Also all knowledge base icons would be cool to have as ‘emojis’

Instead of emoji, personally i prefer some art work or icon more related to Boundless’s graphic style.
To be honest, emoji’s style looks very different as Boundless’s style. It looks very weird in game

I’m sorry to say this, but after seeing more of these in game, I’m starting to think the same already… I’m not sure the art style fits the current theme of Boundless at all (and it won’t be long before people stop complaining about gleam towers and poo huts* and switch to complaints about giant poop or other emojis dotting the landscape.
I think I would much prefer having an emoji for each of the in game items, along with some of the previously concepted stickers.
*Ok, ok, people will always complain about gleam towers and poo huts

What’s the actual text that was typed here which is being censored? You can turn off the profanity filter temporarily (to save you from typing the text on the forum here), but this is something that we need to fix.

Agreed.
I mean, in all honesty, I don’t personally see what I’d do with these emojis, but I’m also already seeing some people over-using them, and it’s going to drastically change the game’s landscape.
Are these emojis limited to Gleam-Club users?

I remember a similarly reaction to the release of leds…a lot of hype/interest , some real concern but in the end some mild cases of overuse but otherwise not widely seen. Hoping this will be the case here.
Used well this new addition could be fun, if used in moderation but I doubt we will see wide spread use of these.
As to concern over abuse, you can already write something rude or passive aggressive but have the ability to report a sign…guessing the same here? Can also can build offensive/rude structures but the landscape seems fairly well devoid of these

Yeah, I mean, sure, you can technically abuse everything.
But I don’t think it’s the same thing between LEDs which are a Boundless-made block, and these emojis which are looking very similar to the ones you have on chat apps and such.
If people make LEDs towers, I honestly don’t mind. I mean, personally, I will think “meh, it’s a bit ugly”. I recently saw a pixel-art gleam thing depicting a dabbing unicorn. Made me laugh, but also “ugh…”, but it’s fair enough. It took actual work to do.
Now if you just have to put signs to blast giant emojis at people’s faces, it’s going to create a lot of drama.
Just sayin’, the devs are gonna end-up having to clean some messes.
I agreed with Stretchious on the fact that we should instead have the stickers that were teased a long time ago.

I suggest move this emoji thing to next patch, so you guys can have more time to test how everyone think about it. Because this emoji feature I believe it will change city’s style a lot. I won’t say it must be a negative change, but its huge for sure. In my opinion, this change even bigger than beacon reclaims, so I think it need more time to consider releasing it or not.

I suggest to not do such things at all and just release it ASAP.
Why is it that people always see the negative things of new features and never the positive?
I’m happy with this addition, I won’t be using them in abundance, I don’t need all the smileys or other weird symbols, but there are plenty of them I will use and you can be sure that won’t be ugly one bit…
Worry less, enjoy life, it’s short as it is…

Those will probably come too one day. These are just special characters they now also allow on signs and they added vector graphic versions of them so they can be rendered nicely in different sizes. Stickers as once written about is a totally different thing.
It’s like saying, yeah skip these emojis and give us titans instead…

nothing new there 
they do seem to enjoy creating extra work for themselves…
do definitely agree that a texture etc based sticker would be a lot more useful but hopefully they have that in mind with this new system being introduced.
What a wonderful idea! Let’s do this!

Well, looks like you like this emoji system a lot.
But in my taste it looks terrible as hell.
So, its their decision to make if this is a good call to release this feature in such short time.
Otherwise I think Goblinounours is correct, they are gonna end-up having to clean some messes for sure.
I don’t mind those emoji pop up in the chat, just don’t want to see a giant smile face pop up everywhere.
