You also have to add the factor of:

Recoil
Yes, Ammo
Max Mana
Reload Time

and shitz like that.

Also, I have revised the gun system due to stupid bugs in the end.

Instead of that one click + recoil rate, it's going to be:

For every shot you...

Screw it, I'm gonna show you the map later. Once I've encoded it.

Here's the MiniMap!

and here's the overview of the map!

To Windex: Yeah, it's M16A1 and M16A3 I think. But they generally dumped those versions cause they already have M4 and M16 is much better and unique when it's 3 shot. Oh, and I do have an Accuracy system! Yiou'd think I'd leave that behind?

Heh, should have used my models vic. Only 500kb extra onto the map and that's not removing anything from it :p

Yeah, I know, it has the Command and Conquer Generals feeling...

But, I don't want to use it yet. Everything is still okay as of now.

Why don't you make your own map? Something that you'll actually release.

EDIT:

And this terrain was done 6 months ago. Then redone today, then actually playable.

A few updates.

is my newest minimap. I'll be honest, it's just to have people's attention there.

I think it'll do a great job in it just like my Galactic Conquest DE map ;).

Anyway, loading screen, will be like Monolith. It will surprise you. :p

Here's the map for an FPS test. Read this thread for more info (And also put your reaction and etc)

I'm trying out new models for the marines and found this to be a very general and versatile model from Hive Workshop.

This

I've reskinned it with camouflage and ended up with this. I can change it to cope more with the surroundings... It looks real good and I think I can make it fit my map soon... The only thing that makes me itch is the "box backpack, the way the gun moves as he dies, the forehead seems too stretched but I want to add camo textures there, and the gun and a few body parts of the marine have the same wrapping, so I can't change the gun textures without doing something to the body part too."

Other than that, lower file size and seems perfect and more the way I like it.

BUT WHAT DO YOU THINK???

It looks nice except for the mask and the hood.
I don't think marines have suits like that.
:D

Updated. Check it out. I've been doing a lot of changes ever since a nice guy hosted my games for me.

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?

    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though

    Heard Houston got hit pretty bad by storms last night. Hope all is well with TH.
