reminder

>>146080638
next to nothing, I can create the terrain and if I hard code units I can command them to move/attack.

>>146081027
first, make it possible to create units from within the game (with some function or so), not only by hardcoding them
after that, make it so you can group units and make them execute the same command (move, attack etc)

So how do I into an event scripting language for my game?
I'm doing Java and libgdx. I feel like hardcoding shit like "when eventid== 42, move character to this position and display textbox id 12" seems really stupid.

>>146081027
Do you have a system for designing units yet? Inheriting from a unit class? Having a unit script in Unity? If you have a system in place it'll be faster to design.

But think about what a unit is. Is it a collection of values (health, move speed, damgae)? How are special abilities handled?

>>14608068
Tons. I have a horde of manager objects that control most of my systems in my game. I woulf like to make them static classes but they work better with unreal this way

Its just for enemies to taunt you. Allies to tell you stuff. That kind of thing.

>>146081327
Each unit is a JS object with it's own properties. like type, position, health...

>>146081225
So I should first make it possible to build buildings. But I have to make buildings a thing first.
Only then I can move to units creation.

>make it so you can group units and make them execute the same command
this is already implemented.

>>146081252
>>146081347
i'd imagine it would be cool if you could assign functions to some table
then, when event with id 42 comes, you would call function table[42](args)
this way, you could do event handling in separate functions, or even files, for each event, and add then whenever if necessary without making spaghetti in code
that's what i would do if i had enough will :^)

If you want to test combat first, why not just have a button that spawns units onto the screen at a fixed point, or a key that spawns them at the mouse location?

Would a good way to program a guard's sight with raycasting be to have several levels of sight, like close, mid range and far, and thren check for the pc to be in tall grass and shit? Like give it all a percentage and degrade that percentage as it needs?

Virtually no progress, again. I spent the morning modeling low poly ships for my Jam game though.

I spent a lot of time thinking how to make a grade system that incorporates all the stats but unsuccessfully so for now it's only based on the number of notes you hit.

Also spend quite a bit breaking and fixing the idol dance move switching code.

Sorry, though but at the point where I realised that making an online shooter would involve incorporating online features, I gave up on it.

I've just started working on another thing, though. Hopefully the low poly and lack of online will make it more likely that I'll finish something.
Reposting from dead thread

>>146082273

what do you mean by 'old properties'?

>>146082102
Raycast gives you a distance and postion of the player. Use that position to find the cover level of the player (however that is done). Now you have two inputs, a distance and a cover level. You can also do a cone of vision by getting the angle between the player and the guard's eye.

With those 2 or 3 input values, write some MATHEMATICAL function that gives you the desired results, then code it up.

>>146082510
Drills are cute

>>146082246
I have a gameobject in unity which contains the message ui.

The boss sends a message to the ui object with the text.
Create instance of the message.
start it with a y scale of 0, so its flat.
move its y scale to 1 over a set amount of time (so it looks like its popping up)
Add the message to a list.
if any other messages are in the list move them up by x amount so they scroll up.

thats about it.

Nope, it's all mine. I'll sort out the AA on the ships though, it does look terrible now that I look at it, it was a sort of unintended side-effect since I'm cheating pixel art and using Photoshop instead of a more 'purist' tool

>>146082951

I still don't understand. Obviously the object would be tinted by the color of the light. Could you put photoshop the image.

stupid anime nonsense gimmick

>>146083115
PS elements 7 = [N] pencil tool
PS CS6 = shift+[B] pencil tool
none of the antialiasing that brush tool has, just pixel filling
make sure you uncheck texture and all that in Brush Settings
if it's a matter of resizing the sprite then go with bicubic instead of nearest, i think that prevents AA on resizing

>>146082524
Well that sucks. But I suppose it's good that you know when something is too big of a project for you.

Your artstyle seems pretty cool. Looking forward to more posts.

>>146082114
is the anime girl just here for pandering or is there more to it? make it smaller because it takes a lot of the screen for nothing and gets old fast

>>146083650

so you want some objects to be always lit, depending on the material?

Look at this if you're using Unity http://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/shader-SelfIllumFamily.html

>>146083991
I actually wanted to do the opposite, shading the unlit one but this doc might be a good start for me

>>146078134
That looks real fucking nice. Keep going!
You should get rid of the anti-aliasing on the UFOs/player, though. And maybe rework the shading on your containers, it's outright nonsensical.

>>146083650
>>146084265
You could just look for a lit toon shader. The one you have in your screenshots seems to be one that uses a fixed fake lightsource to do the shading based on the camera.

I'm already getting rid of (or rather, seriously toning down) the anti-aliasing on the ships like the other anon suggested

For the containers, I did have a bit of trouble with them. How would you suggest I do them? Corrugated metal should theoretically be the easiest thing in the book to do, but however I try and do it in pixel form, it ends up looking like some freaky optical illusion where you can't tell if it's going one way or the other.

Just by looking at ff12 screenshots, they smoothed between the pixels of the texture, which it looks like you haven't done. Geometry is hard to tell since it's just a square hallway.

Are you trying to emulate the style exactly?

Well, look at the perspective on those containers. I'm no artist, but it's like the borders of the containers extend towards the camera, while the inner part is part of the background. You should at the very least get rid of the left and right borders, to make it look more like a real container.
Also, the metal plates are as bright as the border; you should darken them so they fit more with the inner part of the container.

Pic related: removed left/right edges, darkened metal plates (should also be darker when close to the top of the container, to fit with the other tiles.

But anon, I thought cargo containers did have those side parts (pic related).

I see what you're saying with everything else though, for the time being I'll get rid of the metal plates, change the shadow and the top part of the container and see what works.

Trying to make a roguelike with a friend who is doing the graphics mostly retro looking.

Create class called Weapon, then another class called Sword that extends Weapon.

Friend asked me to add fire sword to the game. Create FireSword that extends Sword.

Friend asked me to add Holy Swords to the game.

Friend asked me to have a Holy Flame Sword. I don't know how I would code that. Becomes a mess.

A few days later Friend adds sprite art for mimic Fire Sword to trick player. How the fuck do I even code that.

My friend also talking about a mimic chest I.e. a creature that is also an item. But, that isn't possible as creature class is separate to item class.

Why are you pretending this is something you did when it's directly taken from a Youtube video that's been posted here multiple times, retard?

How should I handle simple bounding box collision?
I'm using Monogame but I want to have a system similar to Unity's(it's what I used before), where you can just say onCollision(Collider other){ }.
How can I implement the same kind of functionality with Monogame Rectangles?

>>146087462
>I thought cargo containers did have those side parts (pic related).
My bad, they do. If the side and top parts are on the same level as the corrugated metal perspective-wise, they should have the same color palette, not be lighter (either everything is bright and the container is foreground, or it's all dark and part of the background).

Good luck with everything! Your art is really neat and I'd love to try out your game, it's time we experimented with non-space themed SHMUPs (I'm guilty; my current project's in space because being a non-artist is easier that way).

that's simple inheritance m8.
make a class Entity, make it have methods that every object should have, like Update, Render, OnCollision(Entity other). then make every game object inherit that class.
then just check collision with simple for loops, call OnCollision and pass the entity it collided with.
checking collision is just entity1.rect1.Intersects(entity2.rect2) == true

public class Player: Entity
{
//...
public override void OnCollision(Entity other)
{
// handle collision for player object
}
}

What's an interesting hotbar format?
I don't really want to do the slots 1-10 at the bottom of the screen thing, but I'm not sure what else I could do.

>>146093225
Not in CodeXL as far as I can tell, and the Nvidia debugger I've used (their Linux one) was absolute crap so I doubt it. I'm sure there's a way but it probably only works with a specific vendor's card or some shit.

So the process of debugging shaders for me is recording all the values I'm hoping the shader is being called with if everything is working properly and then calculating the shader by hand... which is not a scalable approach.

i'm devving on GM and i wonder what should be the minimum screen size to build my game on, if i want to support 4:3, 16:9, 16:10 resolutions
i'm having a lot of trouble to understand screen size, aspect ratio and resolutions, i was thinking on doing it on 1024x768 but its a little tight for what i'm doing, so i want to switch to 1280x720, but that would mean that that is the minimum resolution right? it' cannot go lower than that?

You've been posting that game for months. What a motivation.

>>146103584
oh it's not just a game

Is it possible to get good collision checking on a huge, single object in game maker?

i.e. I have a moon. The ground itself is solid. Based on a color check, water acts differently to solid land if you jump in it. It orbits another planet. The game is, for example purposes, a tech-demo platformer-style with interesting physics effects based on the relative positions of the two planets.

So basically instead of calculating the orbital position of like a million different things, I calculate the position of just the player and the planet. Is that viable, or do I have to plunge myself into the depth of calculating the position of nearly everything?

They are both fine for making games

Most wannabe developers get ahead of themselves. What was initially a pong clone rapidly becomes a VR experience of WW3 if everyone was actually an anthropomorphic goldfish.

Not me, no, I do the opposite. I round down problems until they are within my skillset. The problem is, my skillset is very limited, and what was once a pong clone becomes a single ball which one moves up, down, left and right with the arrow keys. No objective, no score, no scrolling. Not even a game.

I am nodev.

Texture class inherits from GraphicsResource.

How mad would nugaming journalists get on a scale of 1/10?

>>146107506
5/10
not mad enough to get coverage
