In an earlier discussion I talked about online features in my newest game, but unfortunately will be cancelled due to frame rate. A game with this many features will not hold up with online play!
The good news:
Even though online play is cancelled doesn’t mean there won’t be other players!
once @browngr is ready we can start on the ai! Some will be friendly and some will be aggressive (it is random) aggressive opponents will hunt you down until you are dead. Friendly ai will roam around and kill aggressives. Friendlies are able to be joined. You can create your own group of up to 3 friendlies to fight the infected, aggressives, skrats and the defense units
@Ramshacklegamestudios thanks for reminding me. I’m going to have to post-pone my work on DoM for HAKK3R 2, since it’s a higher priority project for me - mine.
I’m hoping to get back to work on DoM within a month or so, if I have an opening. Also, thanks for the more detailed summary on what you want the AI’s to do, I was kind of in the dark before that haha
Haha well…
We’ve been needing sprite editors for a while, as many as we can get. This game is going to have every sprite have different colours on the 32 x 32 grid for maximum graphics detail… You see where I’m going with this?
lol
I actually can’t rn @browngr (personal reasons I know it sounds weird, but yes I can’t use discord for “personal reasons”) you’ll have to speak to me through here
That kinda sucks that their won’t be online play, but then again flowlab isn’t a very good for it’s online mechanics cause you would need a very big and powerful computer for it to run smoothly. Not saying grazer did a bad job, it’s just too laggy on common computers, but the AI system would be a great idea, you should make it somewhat similar to fallout 4, where you can find camps with people in it. You can even add dialogue when you encounter people and have different choices of speech, but you can make them angry. (Probably a little too much for a flowlab game) Just some ideas. Good luck on your game, and I’ll try to find some time to play and give some feedback.
@browngr@ManiacPumpkin Only aggressive fire teams will hang out in small villages, and randomly leave to hunt/find and kill the player, friendlies, enemy aggressives and wild dingos that you will find them cooking and eating
Well, what ever they can get their hands on. I know in the apocalypse people will eat the weirdest of things including insects, mice, maybe even livestock (if they have it), and worst of all, each other.
When you said they eat dog, that’s pretty norm for apocalyptic survival. (Now this just sounds morbid)
