Stage Tent

English

First public release. Tensioned canvas tents, a stage, and the site around them.

Tents

• Big top: king poles, quarter poles, scalloped valance, guy ropes and pennants. Round or long, with 1 to 8 masts.
• Pagoda: a deeply curved peak on aluminium legs. Square or stretched, and joinable with a gutter.
• Reception tent: a two-pitch frame in bays, with rafters, gable posts and arched windows. Up to 30 × 64.
• Folding gazebo: a scissor-frame canopy for a bar or a stall.
• Stretch tent: one membrane over the poles you place yourself, solved as tensioned fabric, with edge poles and ratchet straps.
• Tensile arena: a long span on masts and anchors.
• Inflatable arch: puffed chambers in two colours, ballast feet and guy ropes. Start lines and entrances.

The canvas is set from a three-tab screen, with a live preview:

• two colours, stripes, any RGB colour, a separate lining, valance, bolt rope, tied-back curtains;
• walls closed, rolled up, or with windows. Entrances: front, both ends, open front, or counter;
• floors (light or dark wood, red or black carpet, dance floor) and a stage with a back drape;
• warm or multicolour festoons that place real light;
• rigging bars. They become Theatrical pipes when Theatrical is installed;
• pagodas, reception tents and gazebos join side by side: the shared side loses its walls and gains a gutter;
• canvas, valance, curtains and flags move with the weather, more in the rain and a lot in a storm;
• presets: classic circus, concert black, wedding, cabaret, guinguette, reception, garden party, FOH control, and more.

The rigging wrench copies and pastes settings. /stagetents clean repairs orphaned collision cells.

Stage

• Decks at four heights (25 cm, 50 cm, 75 cm, 1 m), with a dyeable velour skirt, jacks and braces. The wrench changes the height.
• Stairs and a ramp, with rails at the end of a run.
• Cyclorama: cloth on a pipe, dyeable.
• Flight cases: the trunk, the wide case (2 long), the wardrobe (2 tall) and the large one (2 × 2). The three bigger cases craft from the trunk.

Site

• Generator, 3 long and 2 tall. Right-click to start it: smoke leaves the exhaust.
• Site toilet, with a door that opens.
• Site fence, 3 blocks wide, with a scrim, grommets and cable ties.
• Feather flag, about four and a half blocks tall.
• Queue rails in stainless steel. A straight run stays straight. Placing a rail perpendicular to the end of a run turns that end into a curved corner.
• Crowd barriers, rope stanchions (the rope reaches the next post, even one block away) and a tripod turnstile configured with the wrench, plus an access badge.
• Shooting gallery.

Floor

• Banquet tables, standing tables, banquet chairs, folding chairs, a bar counter and stools. Dyeable. Seats can be sat on.
• Bleachers, aisles and supports. The wrench opens the grandstand builder (rows, width, aisles, colour).

Under the hood

• Tents are baked into meshes once and streamed in a single bulk call. From far away the inside and the thin details are skipped, and the wind stops past 40 blocks.
• Collision follows the canvas: walls stop you within a few centimetres of the fabric, and guy ropes never block you.
• Pixel-art inventory icons, in the same style as the tents.
