@Vynlann Going back to change a shipped product this dramatically just isn't wise. This would be redoing the entire horde mode essentially. That ship has sailed. We learn from it and move forward.
But to your point, it could have gone up as a mod and I did think about it.
@abimander nope 🤣 I'm sharing this because 1. it's way in the past and 2. I personally worked on it.
Last post. Another look at what didn't make the cut. We wanted to have the ground appear corrupted and have this fog appear as well but had a lot of problems pulling it off - mainly related to time. Cheers!
@Skittlis Thank Slack. It keeps EVERYTHING
Keep in mind the dino is moving on very straight lines but that would eventually be randomized a bit to give it more of a human feel.
Anyways the point was to show the journey in developing a feature. None of this was even used.
And a SUPER early proof of concept. Pay attention to the debug strings in the top left. It's informing you of the dino's decisions and available moves.
Ok another example
@NadiaNeuro @spartan9999999 It was actually more than 4 months. more like 6 months - gone lol
@MaryyMaybe Nice editing and speaking in this. Will check out the whole thing later.
@Willistor @Roary11477177 @WC_Zane 🤣
@FM_17_8 I actually was posting this thinking of you!
@Roary11477177 @WC_Zane I did
In reference to the last tweet, As my buddy @WC_Zane told me I should mention. They would literally tell me to go home.
@adematoz Much love
@johtunn Actually not really that complex in terms of technicals but very 'expensive' on the server to provide all those dinos with 'sight' if that makes sense.
After spawning, dinos would only choose pathing points that had available routes to the center.
Unfortunately, there were too many edge cases to ship this in a final product. But it was fun. Let me know if these things interest you!
The idea from here was that if I dino did not have at least 1 pathing option, it wouldn't spawn at that point. Spawn points were meant to be the outer ring.
So in theory dinos would use this to know what direction to travel.
Here's how complex it could get on a real map
@garxooo The idea is that the dinos would ignore the red anyway - so in theory yes.
@pterafier Congrats my man! I won't lie and say I'm familiar with all your stuff. I need to get up to speed with your content and I will :)
