WIP Physics Wars

[PrisonLove]

This sounds like a lot of fun. I would suggest making a game like this where you control only heroes as opposed to whole armies and youre heroes can just fling units every which way and make it sort of an AoS, but instead of lanes just make it a huge open field of some sort. You can have like a push and pull that only damages units, some kind of bubble that hoists units into the air and damages buildings or something. I don't know, but I like the idea, I'm subscribing.

 

[T.s.e]

You ought to be able to make a singularity in this

 

[Sevion]

Singularity?

 

[quraji]

Singularity?

I think he means a black hole

 

[Sevion]

I think he means a black hole

Wut o_o'

I is out of the loop.

 

[quraji]

You know, a black hole. Thing that sucks everything around it in including light? The singularity is the point in the black hole where everything goes.

 

[Sevion]

Well. I have no idea what T.s.e. means by that. XD

 

[quraji]

Probably he means you should have some kind of black hole mechanics. Like, your hero or whatever summons a black hole and units get pulled into it.

 

[T.s.e]

A gravitational singularity or spacetime singularity is a location where the quantities which are used to measure the gravitational field become infinite in a way that does not depend on the coordinate system.

Calculate that.

Basically, an ability that sucks all nearby units in to a target point, thn spits them back out when it's done (or maybe not ).

I think an anti-gravity bubble is also another thing to do. Basically it creates a bubble that hoists all units into the air and when it finishes it drops them to the ground, dealing damage.

A singularity stops time, so I guess it would be pretty rigged. But then again, physics is rigged.

 

[Sevion]

Stopping time was actually going to be something I was giong to implement. It would likely have a 10-15 second max and a 30 second cooldown or something.

A singularity stops time, so I guess it would be pretty rigged. But then again, physics is rigged.

Well actually, it would slow time infinitely as you got closer to the singularity (until it 'stopped'), but only for the people within the effects, time would move normally for everyone else. So, many years could pass inside the effects, while only a second or two passes outside.

Code that

 

[Sevion]

Code that

Mmmk. ^_^

Update on the UI

The current draft palette is up.

Check first post under the Concept Image.

 

[black.sheep]

Cannot wait for screenshots/gameplay vids.

 

[GetTriggerUnit-]

Please make an AI!

Also I'd enjoy if you could release a testmap even if it's bad.

 

[Sevion]

Zomg. AI for this? XD Massive coding.

 

[Zack1996]

Zomg. AI for this? XD Massive coding.

Depending on the level of the AI's skills. As long as they move and give you something to play against, you got an AI.

Also, any in-game screenies?

 

[Sevion]

None ;o Have you seen the progress bars XD Nothing to show atm.

If the AI is on such a small level that all it does is order units around then it's probably supah-easy ;o No fun at all ;o
