NEW MAP: Hotstepper (lava map for anyone)
Hot like this!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i1lKuu-lf5E
As you see, this map is uglier though and the lava does not look as nice because the heightmap is a bit jagged. closeenough.jpg
Lava Tide Rhym:
5 minutes no lava
lava floods low level, goes down
5 minutes no lava
lava floods low level, goes down
5 minutes no lava
lava floods low level, stays at that level for 1 minute
lava floods medium level (the triangles + center hill are not flooded)
NOW HOSTING BA GAME
test games over, thanks for playing. scroll further down for replays.

Re: NEW MAP: Hotstepper (lava map for anyone)
what size is it? 32x32?
Also damn i am liking those lava effects.
especially the texture vs clearwater with red floor

8x8, so pretty small
mostly for 1v1 but just played a 4 ffa and didnt feel too crowded. players were newbs though

Re: NEW MAP: Hotstepper (lava map for anyone)
Needs some kind of vent with smoulderiness to act as a source for the lava to prevent random lava coming from nowhere syndrome
Re: NEW MAP: Hotstepper (lava map for anyone)
Tested it, lava did not come. Repeated messages in the console 300 secs away - then 10 secs, than nothing. Lets imagine the floor is lava, is no fun, if the floor is not lava.

Giant space penis cuming with lava on my map. I wont believe it.
I cant see any error in infolog, but on the other hand, i m myself.

Re: NEW MAP: Hotstepper (lava map for anyone)
thats strange.
first lava tide comes at 5min.
can you see the lava below the map? (its always hiding there when its low)
does stuff die if you put it in lower ground and wait until tide?

Re: NEW MAP: Hotstepper (lava map for anyone)
epic city. this map is WINNING!
Re: NEW MAP: Hotstepper (lava map for anyone)
test games over, thanks for playing everybody :)
no game was really on a "high level", always somebody had to fall asleep in lava
here are two random replays that were quite fun:

if someone plays a good game on this, please upload.

Re: NEW MAP: Hotstepper (lava map for anyone)
Interesting concept, how did you achieve this?
Re: NEW MAP: Hotstepper (lava map for anyone)
Code: Select all
function gadget:GetInfo()
return {
name = "lava test",
desc = "lava that rise",
author = "knorke + some edit by zwzsg",
date = "Feb 2011, 2011",
license = "weeeeeee iam on horse",
layer = 0,
enabled = true
}
end
if (gadgetHandler:IsSyncedCode()) then
function gadget:GameFrame(frame)
local LavaLevel
-- Calculate Lava Level
MapYmin,MapYmax=Spring.GetGroundExtremes()
LavaLevel = MapYmax-(MapYmax-MapYmin)*math.abs((frame/1800)%2-1)
-- Damage units in lava
if frame%10==9 then
for i,u in pairs(Spring.GetAllUnits()) do
x,y,z = Spring.GetUnitPosition(u)
if (y and y < LavaLevel+10) then
Spring.AddUnitDamage (u, 25)
Spring.SpawnCEG("BURN", x, y, z, 0,1,0)
end
end
end
-- Random FX in lava
local x,z=math.random(0,Game.mapSizeX),math.random(0,Game.mapSizeZ)
if Spring.GetGroundHeight(x,z)< LavaLevel then
Spring.SpawnCEG("BURN", x, LavaLevel, z, 0,1,0)
end
-- Pass to unsynced
_G.LavaLevel = LavaLevel
end
else --- UNSYNCED:
local DrawWorldTimer = nil
function DrawQuadVertices(x1,z1,x2,z2,y,TextureSize)
-- Where y the the lava plane position
-- Where TextureSize is the size of texture pattern, in elmos
gl.TexCoord(0,0)
gl.Vertex(x1,y,z1)
gl.TexCoord((x2-x1)/TextureSize,0)
gl.Vertex(x2,y,z1)

gl.Vertex(x2,y,z2)
gl.TexCoord(0,(z2-z1)/TextureSize)
gl.Vertex(x1,y,z2)
end
function DrawLavaSquare(LavaLevel)
DrawWorldTimer=DrawWorldTimer or Spring.GetTimer()
local cm1=(math.abs(((Spring.DiffTimers(Spring.GetTimer(),DrawWorldTimer)/0.78)%2)-1)^2)*0.5

end

end
end
end--end unsync

Re: NEW MAP: Hotstepper (lava map for anyone)
Epic idea, can you make a map with more height levels, so you would have to move up and up all the time to survive... i think that would be fun if the mod was fixed for it somehow

Re: NEW MAP: Hotstepper (lava map for anyone)
yeah but make it hard to get to the top, or else every one would just walk to the top from the start. maybe switch paths up a steep terrace
Re: NEW MAP: Hotstepper (lava map for anyone)
I think it can be done: put least metal in middle, and most in edges, kinda like inverted speedballs. so you want to be near-death-state at all times to get extra metal. but you have to move up constantly to avoid death as well... the map should be really big though.
Re: NEW MAP: Hotstepper (lava map for anyone)
How about steeling Behes Volcano for a lava-source?
A Robbin Goods appears out of the forrest. It super effective.

Re: NEW MAP: Hotstepper (lava map for anyone)
after having just watched a game; i feel like it would be really nice to have beheriths lava spew as a warning that the lava level is about to rise
if i made a map with this gadget in mind (its so hilarious and creative) could you help me a bit to get it all going? im thinking sewer sludge rather than lava

Re: NEW MAP: Hotstepper (lava map for anyone)
If you can make it steam at the edges of the lava then that should get rid of the fugly edges.
Right now there's nothing stopping noobs playing a 4v4 with choose start post then 5 minutes in everybody gets killed by rising lava having built their base on the lower ground, I assume that there's console messages warning?
