Staredit Network

Well not really.

PROJECT: DEVELOPMENT
A Dedication to SEN's Cartography

STORYLINE/INTRODUCTION:
First of all, this won't be that involved in as a story. There's more gameplay to it, then story, is what I mean; like CRASH RPG. I mean, it won't be -that lame- (no offense), but I'm focusing more on the systems. The storyline will be just mission objectives, a few important cut scene talks, you get the idea

I will be using unoriginal systems that have been implemented into maps many times before.

INTERFACE/FEATURES:
The interface will consist of many different systems and how they work.

ARMOR SYSTEM
Like in HoTf (Moogle), whenever you level up, your armor will go up. This is represented by shields.

Trigger

Description:

Armor system

Players:

¤ Player 1/Whoever

Conditions:

¤ Score is exactly 1 (custom)

Actions:

¤ Modify Shield Points for Player 1 (Hero) at Hero Lockdown to 5%

¤ Preserve trigger

LEVEL UP SYSTEM
Duh, a leveling up system in which you get better stats, ECT. This is counted by your kills, and then one custom is added to the leaderboard. Then, other systems are effected by what the score on the leaderboard is.

Trigger

Description:

LEADERBOARD

Players:

¤ All Players

Conditions:

¤ Always

Actions:

¤ Disable Leaderboard Caculations for Computer Players

¤ Set Leaderboard Points for the most Custom, Labled 'Level'

Trigger

Description:

EXPERIENCE TO LEVEL

Players:

¤ Player 1/Whoever

Conditions:

¤ Kills is at least 12

Actions:

¤ Set Custom Score to 1

¤ Display Text "Level up!"

¤ Set Resources Add one Mineral for Player 1

INVENTORY SYSTEM
So far, no. I may use a second dropship system, but the dropships can interfere with each other.

SPELL SYSTEM
Hotkey your dropship to quickly cast your spells! (Spells at 3, and every other five levels.)

SHOP SYSTEM
This is very basic. It will be like an enter/exit, inside/outside, items/purchase. Enter/exit will be where you go to enter and exit the shop. Inside and outside is where you appear when you enter and exit the shop. Items are the items you can purchase, and purchase is where you go once you've bought an item.

UPGRADE
Plasma shields have been disabled. They are used for the Armor. Armor has been disabled. Plasma shields are used for the Armor. The Attack will be available. Everytime you level up, you gain a mineral. You use this mineral to upgrade at the forge.

MANA SYSTEM
Depending on your level, your maxium mana will recharge to that certain extent to cast spells.


NOTES:

Systems I did not implement are still needed to learn. The equipment system seems to be bugging. It's very simple. Bring unit to equip item, equip item. Item equipped, set effects. But for some reason, it won't even start. You can see in the map.

Those systems are(EDITED):
RANDOM BATTLE
VIRTUAL HPSYSTEM
ABILITY TO SWITCH UNITS TO MODIFY CUTSCENES (if a player is not there)
EQUIPMENT SYSTEM[/color]

November Eight - Edited Topic; released Pilot.
New character.
Need to edit to satsify SEN folks and myself.

I have a fiew questions:

• Why don't you use BB Codes?
• Why don't you use the Maps in Production Template?
• Why do you post triggers for your map?

You COULD just learn the dropship system instead of avoiding it because it needs "too much skill".

Trust me, I tried. When I say too much skill, I keep bugging it up.

If it's so 'neccessary' to use BBCodes and a template, I will do so. Evidently, you people take no interest in things that do not apply to your usual standards.

i think the idea is neat and i cant wait to see the armor system which ive seen before but i would like to see agian. I hope this turns out to be a cool map and good luck!

BBCodes help for it to be more organized...like right now your thread is a big mess and you need to organized it

Yeah, thanks. But this will have a slow start. I'm only getting back into map making after having a lazy break. Like, I've tried for a month to get back into it, and now I am.

So, don't expect too much.


Oh I see about the BBcodes now. Thanks.

I'm not asking to make it beautiful, I'm asking to make it look decent, organized and appealing.

Right. It's edited.

NAME-Wafflestomper
AGE-9000
EQUIPMENT (attk-Waffle stomp 150 DMG, armr-Squar waffle pads 5 armor, factr, bons-Syrup Inhansers+2)
BACKGROUND
A experiment gone rong leaving Johny Ceesh in a disfigured waffle form. But with this he gained new powers of waffle stomping so now he is known as Wafflestomper!!!

Ahahaha, maybe

ADDITION:
Okay, Wafflestomper was added. I implemented the dropship system and it works fine. I still need to edit some bugged spells (they're moving onto the lockdown so fast, they can't attack). Also, I added a SIEGE TANK BOSS to end Chapter one.

After that, there's the road to ???.

Anyway, the basic structure is finished. All I need to do is finish the map and tweak it to its limit!

I hope...

YEAHHHHHH BABY!!!! WAFFLESTOMPING POWERS ACTIVATE!!!!!!

[attachmentid=21478]
Yeah! Except, he'll be in chapter two.

Part One Finished, but some stuff need to be edited.

Sorry to say, but if you had to ask me, I'd say it looks lame.

I'm using the same armor system in my new map =(. Wish i announced it first lol.
Goodluck.

~Tdnfthe1

Thanks for the good luck.

And if it looks lame, how can I improve? You tell me >>

The Terrain mainly I mean, I beileve that a simple map with only temples is pretty... Well, dull.

NAME 3-D MAN
AGE-32
EQUIPMENT (attk- 3-D blast 20 dmg, armr- skin tight clothing 1, factr, bons 3-D boosters + 2 dmg)
BACKGROUND
While watching a movie in a 3-D theater Waffle Stomper sets a bomb and stomping on it, making it explode! From the radio active waves from the 3-D film put together by toxic fumes from 3-D man's mom's butt crack turning him into a super hero!

Well, the systems I once avoided are now coming into place. But some are quite unneccessary, and I suck at storylines. So for the storyline, unless I get some help, it'll stay crappy.

Anyway, I need to edit EVERYTHING, but so far, I'm too lazy. And besides, I'm supposed to start a part two.

Maybe when I'm not lazy; like when I'm in a map making mood. Right now, I'm only editing the topic.

I'll write a storyline for you, if you want. Contact me on AIM as colddarkworld.

I don't have AIM.

But thanks for offering.
