Storyline / Introduction
No story!
Few of my maps ever will.
Features
-Player Interface
Choose your sub, ping, aim, launch!
You can launch your torpedoes or CMs in your inventory, and buy them at the space bellow "WEAP" and "CM".
Money is given to you by intervals, and through power ups.
You can change your signature at the sounds section to evade detection by other players or torpedoes.
The torpedo will be launched in the direction of the aimer respective to the position of your sub.
Pick up the power ups for free repairs, money, invisible ping, but avoid the bomb!
-New ideas
*I don't think anyone had this kind of aiming system before.
*Same with sound settings
*and CMs
Details
-Subs
*M-sub
Highly mobile with weak hull.
Scout
*D-sub
Impregnable hull with weak engines.
Command center
*B-sub
A cross between the two subs.
Dropship
!All subs have same surface areas.
That means of you don't choose D-sub, the torpedoes will actually hit you before physically hitting you.!
-Weapons
*Dumb torpedo
No tracking, but high velocity.
This also means it cant be fooled by CMs.
Still explodes with impact with CMs.
Wraith
*Sound torpedo
A more expensive torpedo with tracking.
Dropship
*Guided torpedo
The most expensive, and slow torpedo.
This always goes towards your aimer, which guides it.
Overlord with speed upgrade
!Units are only for their speed. Damage is delivered if the projectile(unit) hits a CM or an enemy sub!
-CMs
*D-CM
A slow CM with a big area.
*M-CM
A fast CM with almost no sound.
-Ping
Pinging will expose your location to everyone else, but will also give you the locations of other subs.
-Sound settings
*Engines only
You can not shoot, but lose some necessary noise.
It is advised to do this when ever you aren't the one shooting.
*Total silence
Turn everything off for no sound at all.
But you cant evade either, or launch anything.
-Repair
*Repair
Repairs your ship at a price.

Well this looks cool. Is it going to be as if under water? I.e. Pylon sprites and scarabs (for bubbles) and recall (whirlpools)? Cos that'd look extra nice.
Sub system looks sound, hope it all works smoothly at the end
Good Luck

Danm internet was disconnected for 3 days.
Now, that wouldnt mean I cant work on the map but...the unit test was today so I couldnt work on it either.
Anyway, I think someone could come up with a better name.
Open to suggestion.

Name idea: silent hunters (I've heard something like this before)
OK, so what's with the CM ? It's some kind of false target ?
ADDITION:
And looks interesting. I hope you will have pylon auras to make it look like water.
Good luck.

I dont see how I could get pylon sura to work in a rectangular arena.
Love to do it if I could though.
But no observers.
This is under water not on water.
BTW I just got connection since... last I posted.
Thanks for the suggestion.
