Springcord

Does anyone know what this is or was supposed to be, or if you can get it to work someway?

You can find it in Environment/Springs/Springcord.

As it has word 'cord' in it, and it has to do something with springs, I assume that was a Tubelectric cord which bounced you if you went at it.

The "springcord" is the silver, metal part of the spring which coils (not the red part.) I assume it was going to be an event, something like that - perhaps a broken version of the spring. That's a dumb idea, and that might be why it was never coded.

In any case, it does not work. Who knows what crazy ideas were in Epic's mind for it.

I'm guessing it was something like those bouncy walls in Orbitus.

I feel like springs were going to be made from two parts, and the spring cord would determine certain aspects of the spring (probably height or strength) and then you could just put a "spring" down on top of that and set its color, etc. and they'd be a team. Maybe things besides springs could have been put on a springcord and could be act like a spring. It's a tougfhty.

I've also tried to make it work with MCEs, but it doesn't even show up.

The rock is just bouncing off a spring and hiding the top. I see through your evil tricks >D.

No evil tricks this time, it doesn't work like you explained it, so Cooba must've done it another way..

I deleted of the plank or whatever from spring and replaced it with rock, that's all.

I doubt that springs used two events because if that were the case, there would probably be a spring top event, too.

Epic could have made that idea, but got too lazy to even remove the 1 line of text it took from the jcs, let alone actually do the idea.

Didn't someone at one point get Springcord to move springs up into the air a bit? I don't remember if that was true or not.

Tried some stuff... no real results.

There appears to be no Springcord MCE.
Same for SCE.
Rocket Turtle does not follow Springcord events.
Placing events on top of Springcord events does not change them.
Adding parameters to Springcord and giving them random numbers only does weird stuff like change the event, illumination and difficulty settings, but that happens when you add parameters to anything.

In short, it wouldn't do anything at all.

Seeing what Cooba does make me think that if this event was real that it would probably be pointless. Your better off just pushing objects onto a spring.
