[SpikedHelmet]

ugh

[PicassoCT]

Well, i there are three steel atoms on the right which completely debalance your fine model, my good spiked. I would recommend beginning from scratch :)

[knorke]

omg thread split.

so, any new cool WIP's anyone ? KNORKOR AMAZE US

HOLY MILK SHITTING BATMAN
Here comes the shitmobile and ITS BACK ON TRACKS
is that some gif? THANKS CAPTAIN OBVIOUS you bet it is and now better stop your porn dl so it does not take ages to to load because YOU WILL NOT NEED THE PORN

OH MY GOD did you just JIZZ YOUR PANTS over a 100 pixel gif of some unfinished jaggy animation.

[rattle]

no suspension? boo

[d-gun]

wheels arent spinning either

[FireStorm_]

Cool! I can already imagine the vehicle running of its tracks when they break, although that might be expecting to much.

[knorke]

no suspension? boo

quick 5 minute test because someone talked about rocking units in lobby.
probally will not use though.

upspring

vehicle running of its tracks when they break

as long as the vehicle travels in a straigt line its easy but with turning it gets tricky. hm. probally wont do, sorry.

i finished fappin 1 min before i noticed this gif

but ye its epic ! humanity is proud of u

[knorke]

science.

[manolo_]

nice knorke, do u have any plans about the mod?

[knorke]

well, a bit.
But I am only slowly getting more certain if I really want to finish this. ie had the units-breaking-apart thing not worked out for whatever reason, that would have ended it.
Also everything I have right now is this + some Lua:

No use to write big plans when all there is are 5 50% done units.

but ok:
overall it should play fast&fun but not choatic spam.
Not quite as simple as Kernel Panic, maybe a bit like Broodwar on small maps like Bloodbath etc.
Everything that happens should be "there." ie should there ever be a slow firing cruise missle thing (example) it will not have a reload progress bar. Instead it will have a reload animation.
Probally C&C style harvesting. One kind of tank instead of 5 different ones. One resource as I do not have any idea i like what a second resource could be good for or be like.
Ideas for units or gameplay are welcome but yeah.

[FireStorm_]

Knorke, you're awsome!
There will be so much i can stea...ehm, learn form this.

And C&C style harvesting? Guess you're also gonna need a lego minecraft Knorke-land map heavy with feature models that will shatter into blocks one can harvest, when it is destroyed. But thats probably me just dreaming again.

quick 5 minute test because someone talked about rocking units in lobby.

I was discussing it with Godde for 30mins and going nowhere, meanwhile you started, coded, tested, got it working. Plus your code is better than mine, since instead of having rotation proportional to acceleration liked I would have*, you threshold the acceleration and turn a fixed amount, which makes it a ton more easy to configure and precisely control the result.
*By law of physics rotation should be equal to arctan of acceleration/gravity. But since in Spring engine units have a constant acceleration, there's not need to keep on measuring the acceleration at run time, but only to know if the unit is one of the three phases: accelerating / braking / neither, like you did.

No use to write big plans when all there is are 5 50% done units.

I like your spirit!

Whilst this is a nice idea... you might want to lay off on the 'animate everything' until you've got the balance down tight-ish. Otherwise adjusting reload times (for example) is going to be a bitch.

[zwzsg]

In a Lua animation, fetching the reload time from the weapondef, and the weapondef from unitdef, is easy enough.

It's easy enough in COB for one weapon, too; even in OTA.

[KaiserJ]

primary resource : bricks
secondary resource : paint

[Hobo Joe]

Don't forget glue

[KaiserJ]

idk, these cubes are here to fight, not to huff glue out of old rags down in the viaduct

unless theres another use for glue, but if there is, i certainly have never heard of it

[PicassoCT]

A Challenger appears.


Its solving Abilitys are supereffective. With every hit, a Brix is split.
