screenshots will be posted soon
i gotta say this map sounds tight and cant wait to test it
u better work fast u got me quite excited over this and i will get me ish if u dont get me some previews soon
About the firing in the direction you're facing, how accurate will the system be, will it support nine directions, four, or be truely cool (and I think nearly impossible to trigger) and incorporate support for more than nine directions?
Also, on the footsteps, do you plan on making them directional-- so that a different .wav file, either from left or right plays when they're close enough to hear?
Also, what will the maze be made of? Will it be a static, terrian maze, or will it be dynamic, and made of minerals or something similar? ( I assume that the name "Maze combat" is not purely asthetic)
I don't like the idea. Maze Combat? Nope, doesn't work for me. Sure it's original, but it just sounds lame.
It's quite easy to trigger 8 fire directions. Not a bad idea, if you make it easy to shoot, it would be great !
Looks complicated but it sounds fun, I wonder how your going to do the ambient footsteps... Hmm... looks cool. I hope you finish it. I personally don't like "weird" map sizes, because I always forget to join a game before and I crash -_-. But this sounds like a good idea. Good luck with it.
ok id like to point out my maze is a 50x50 terrain maze the only directions you can really shoot in is left right up and down however IF there was to be diagnals in the map i would of done the other directions but there isnt (sorry)
also if a mod of some kind comes on here i would like them to delete Dark_Lunatic_K's post because 1. i don't like him 2. he hates me 3. frankly i dont need him talking in my topic if hes going to just send negative vibes
Sounds pretty tight. And about DLK, just report his posts. Were you the one who posted in MMA about firing in a direction?
The Arena could be 50x50, but that doesn't mean the map must be... unless your having a locations problem, you could just put null around it. I agree that we should avoid maps of odd dimensions at all cost.
Edit: I imagine this is what you were gonna do anyway. Btw: Nice map idea.
64x64 and I could do some interior 3d looking terrain instead of ur block-style...
O:
Just a thought to ponder... O:
wooden i swear u like making work for me :s if u want to make a 50x50 maze on a 64x64 sized map feel free. However if i do not wish to use it then that should be my final decision.
the map is a 64x64 map with a 50x50 maze this leaves room for the other features of the map
Your original post implies the dimensions are 50x50, not the arena. I'd clarify that.
I think the biggest challenge you will have is keeping the game interesting and easy to use when implementing all these features. The controls not only have to be neat and original, but easy enough to use that it never becomes a pain. I think if you can accomplish that, it would be a really sweet game to play
sorry about the misconception ive edited it so that it SHOULD be more obvious now
