Greetings all,

Here is my very, very, very, beta TD. All the triggers seem to be working and I would like to thank everyone who helped me to get to where this map is now, your suggestions made things much easier and less time consuming then the way I would have tried and failed at. I have a massive amount of balancing to do as well as code the upgrade system, but this version allows you to build any tower in map and if you have the gold you can upgrade through all towers. There are only 6 waves as of now, until I get all the core triggers done. After that I will go back and add more levels and increase the speed of the creeps. So please keep in mind this version is solely for my testing purposes. I get a kick out of goofing off with it so far, and now that its playable I’d like to see any feedback ya’ll have.


Larger Map size for a TD at current speeds it does take a while if you let the creeps walk through to the end


Basic premise of the map:

My wife likes TD games so I’m making her this map

Final release contents: RED
Finished content: Black
In progress content: Blue

Unlimited waves:
Waves will Spawn in pre-designated waves until level <? >
Waves will switch over to a timed spawn till you run out of lives

Large Custom Creep Array - Later Timed waves randomly pick Creeps to spawn
Large Pathing and Mazing Map:
Complex path route allowing for greater tower placement options and play styles
Large open mazing arena completely build-able and customizable
Towers are attackable and gain HP with lvl block their path and watch the creeps fight their way through
Sacrifice System for gaining more Building area
Upgrade system:
Upgrades will be based off Wood bonuses granted during the game

Towers:
Ground towers levels 1-10 <need balancing>
Air Towers levels 1-10 <need balancing>
Ground / Air towers levels 1-10 <need balancing>
Slow Tower levels 1-10 <need balancing>
Bonus towers 1-10 (incomplete missing range bonus still) <need balancing>

Nice, only bugg I could find after 10 mins testing was that you gained alot more gold then you should when selling towers. For example when you sell the slow tower wich costs 30 gold you gain 100 gold^^ Othwerwise it's coming along real nice.

corrected I forgot to change the cost vs point value on selling the slow and bonus towers they will buy back for only 100% now. I also fixed the bonus tower it will upgrade to 10 now.

question: are you seeing a timer stay on the screen labled timed wave 1 that doesnt dissappear like the other timers do?



EDIT: now its fixed

    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    Another bot invasion 493 members online most of them bots that do not show up on stats

    I'm looking at a solid 378 guests, but 3 members. Of which two are me and VSNES. The third is unlisted, which makes me think its a ghost.

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
