Further Notes
I might have your minerals as your shield percentage
and your gas as your health points so you know how much life you have left
I will use death counts to keep everything in tact.

miscellaneous
You will be able to switch teams to keep stuff even
If you kill 4 of your own team players you are banned.
Host can restart or choose a new game whenever he feels like it. Even after some1 has won he can choose to restart

Objective
i am basically making this game exactly the same as the demo for mac

So this is for the first Halo? Looks VERY nice. I can't wait to play... Please finish!

oh, yes it is first halo... the only demo I can find for mac. If you have a mac and want to play it. Here is the link, you need a Mac OS X
HALO

It was a really good demo, and to make it even greater, you are allowed to play online!!!!11one

Sounds pretty cool, I can't wait to see how you pull most of this stuff off, and how you'll pull off the shield system.

shield system is easy...

It will require 100 triggers to have it set perfectly..
then... 5 seconds.. heals 20% each second... but if i use death counts 12 deaths per second thats 60
100/60 meh around 2... so around 50 triggers to heal..

healing will go

condition:
minerals are exactly 0
actions
set deaths of a unit1 to 0
preserve

condition
if death of unit1 is 0
action
set deaths of unit2 to 120 (10 seconds)
preserve

condition
if deaths of unit2 is atleast 1
action
subtract 1 deaths of unit2
preserve trigger

condition
if minerals is 0
if death of unit1 is 0
if deaths of unit2 is 0
actions
add 2 minerals for current player
add 2 deaths of unit1 for current player

then check it again, skipping the timer.
will take a long time... but i pulled off copying 300 triggers all basically the same before
in an interceptord defense.. had 100 levels

complicated triggers is my specialty, have you seen apeiron? or Bomb Squad?

ADDITION:
I am really good with triggers, but terrain wont be easy to do for a mac user...

What is a halo Side Winder???

and thanks for the luck

I was thinking about making a halo game a long time ago. I made the life display on the minimap and it regenerated and everything but it was only 1 player. How are you going to pull off the ammo and such? I don't think that you can use the EUD detection thing.

It's just Sidewinder, it's a map in Halo... really cool map, I might add.

okay... that tells me exactly what sidewinder is....

ADDITION:

Everytime you shoot it subtracts a death count from the ammo you have in your gun.. then a reload time will be a few seconds with the ammount of amm you have with you.

remember I am shooting interceptors... not using the units.

I might need an EUD detection thing for the shooting maybe..
if you have 10 health you are shooting and it will heal you back to 20
so each time you stim it will start shooting, then you stim again and it will stop shooting

instead of selecting your barracks.. and build a marine thing..

Oh, so like if you build a unit at the barracks it will launch an interceptor at the enemy? And if your interceptor hots the enemy then it does damage? Controlling interceptors with triggers can be a pain sometimes.

Nice hope it is going to be good, whens it ready to test? ETA??? Hope it's as fun as it sounds..

sounds good but how would u use the gravity gun?

yes, basically


hmm... ETA, hmm maybe around early august if i really work hard on it.


I have no clue...
all i know, is it will flip a vehicle.. empty all passengers.. and send the vehicle flying..
other than that, I dont really no..

oh, and if your wondering how I will make marines invisible, I will do that 1 thing... ugh.. i fergot how it went
give
enable
move under fog
disable
disable
move back...
give back..

or something like that.

ADDITION:
hmm, would you rather have. automatically shoot at closest enemy when you fire,? or use a dropship, to change the person you are aiming at?

I am also going to have, if you cant see a person you cant shoot in his direction, so if your hiding he has to find you.

I think that I found a flaw in your system. When you order an interceptor, I think that it orders all of them in the area to the location. So it would seem as if the bullets are chasing you instead of flying straight. I'll try to test this more.

It will move the interceptor to your centerd location on your guy, 1 interceptor at a time, then center a idfferent location on the enemy, then order it to move there. then with the other interceptor, it will center a different location on the enemy. probably up to 20 locations per player for all the shots...

yes it will take a long time, but I don't look at how long it will take, if i do at least 2 hours work on it a day it should be done by early august.

well u got me excited but theirs alot of halo maps with this map idea but urs will for sure top it if it gets done. so good luck and if u need a tester ill do it for sure

sure thing.

I notice alot of people are wanting this map, so I will put this map on the top of my to do list.

Blood Gulch is a multiplayer map for Halo. Sidewinder is another multiplayer map for Halo. It is huge, has lots of cliffs, and is really cold with snow and evergreens and ice fields. It happens to be my favorite.

And as for my suggestion? A banshee, which is way up in the air, shouldn't be able to run over ground units.

ADDITION:

Just like a needler

ya i could probably make it a scout, then select something to go to ground... or something.

wow i like this good job dude, gotta show <3 to fellow oo member , and this guy is very serious you will probablly make an awesome map finally a good halo map.

now we need one for gears of war lol.

I can hardly understand you

ooh now i get it,
gotta show love to "A" fello Oo Member

kk took me a while

A purple Wraith would look more like a Banshee than a Scout.

hmm, is there a way to detect a cloaked unit? because cloaking might work..
to go to ground..

tanks would be so strong, you have 4 ppl on a tank
1 driving it and 3 passsengers all shooting at same time, WOW!!!
lots of intercepotors

ADDITION:
hmm... for the gravity gun, I will have it junk yard dog when it hits the person, then move the person under it constantly for a second.

sounds good?
