Extra Information/Ideas[/center]


Features/Systems

-Pin pointing his coordinates is using a very nicely set up system that determines the units position on the map.
-Walk/Run is hes running the whole time intill hes tired and then starts to walk.(slow down unit trick)His stamina will be set high because going slow annoys alot of people.
-Ammo, Reload, accuracy system wich is yet to be determined but there will be one.
-Unlimited level ups using a very complicated system to prevent excesive copying triggers.
-Vhp too make healing possible my 1 hp at a time. also to detect for other triggers planned.
-Interaction action button will be a completly new concept to rpg's because im making it that any thing building or unit its next too it will interaction with many and random actions.
-Attack and Armor will be upgrades but the armor part might change to be part of the Vhp.
-Pylon Portal is same as town portal just teleport to the pylon and have a nice tele effect.
-Pylon shield will be a tricky thing because this shield will all be by triggers and preplaced units or mobile grids. Many neat effects to make it look like a shield.
-Scarab is just a scarab attack. Just like you've probably seen a scarab appears next to the unit and attacks the nearest unit.
-Green potion is hp restoration
-Blue potion is mana restoration
-Mines is vulture mines
-Stamina to longer your physical capabilites
-Anything the city Oasis mines will be transfered to the Co-op player if there is one. By using the income method and allowing the player to build additional units and buildings to defend the Pylon.
-Ordering computer units will be tricky triggering to make it very flexible for the player to make them do anything.
-Screen saver will have a 20x12 section that is filled with custom terrain that will look cool and some neat effects and have the Pylon dancing injoy.
-Burrow detection

Ideas

sounds for walking
sounds for running
sounds for attacking
sounds for hits
all units will have a blue overlap
all buildings will have a green overlap
all heros/bosses will have a dark blue overlap
Pylon will be multicolored overlaped
(getiing more)

Umm, I dont think theres a fast unit with a spell. Maybe you can have two Dts and when they morph thats when they cast the spell. OR you can mod the map and have a zealot have the storm skill.

Also, id love to test for you boomy. smile.gif

Ok added you guys.
Also for some obvious reasons ill be resizing that map to make it easier for me to fit everything in with out space problems. biggrin.gif i think ill go for 192x192 that should be good.
I need the unit for protector, before i can do any big advancments so suggestions? unless rantent decides first tongue.gif

ADDITION:
Ok Hunter Killer (hero hydra) has been choosen, by suggestions of Rantent and testing on the unit to fulfill the requirements. Intro scene is nearing completion.

Ok well progress is kinda slow lately because of personal live stuff. I'm debating to either post a replay of the intro scene or not but since there's not much feedback i most likely will. Ill finish it ASAP
