Minor request: would it be possible to add custom point cost for live capture? (I don't even know how this is calculated, to be honest... twice the kill value?)I can do it, but only after I finish scripting (and this will take some time).
Well, I started working on a thunder hammer addition, as an upgrade, but ran into some problem:Nope, melee have fixed 0 radius. And for explosion if you want smaller then you should change it to different graphic.
Is it even possible to have an explosive (as in creating an actual blast) melee attack? My current attempt crashes the game..
Also, even though I restricted the blast radius, the explosion animation for the snapshot part is still huge, which makes it look stupid. :/
I've attached what I have so far, in case someone is interested in taking a look. (Try it in a new battle, it is not integrated in Piratez yet)
Why can't the base screen just be put to a higher resolution?Most of my answer could be Dioxine post. One point about "battlescape needs changing", I except that to do it right it would require rewrite half or battlescape code to made 4x2 units works. AI, Path Finding, Map and Unit rendering. And is big possibility that it will end up as big mess (3x3 would be more possible).
I don't see how the battlescape needs changing unless you mean to prevent the tanks from getting stuck. I don't see a problem with that...player either learns not to get tanks stuck, or learns to free them once they are stuck.
Can I use this to change the base layout to 8x8?No and No. Base don't have enough room to add new rooms. Adding scrolling would be overkill. And for tanks, this would need modification in lot of different places. Every part of battlescape would need changes only to support this.
I also want to make 2x4 tanks. It can theoretically be done, they just need to check a few squares next to them for passability when turning.
Saturn's gravity is actually lower than Earth's. Even the red dwarf Proxima Centauri is only just over 5G. Planets, even those bigger than Earth, tend to be less dense. But even if they are the same density, increasing their volume does not increase the gravity as fast as you might think.Good point, probably using gas giants as example wasn't best thing.
Mars probably has a more "medium" gravity, it's about 38% of Earth gravity. Martians might say that Earth's gravity is 2.6A.
Humans are mediocre because Earth is mediocre. Mediocre gravity I mean as gravity is a key feature.I strongly disagree, mediocre to what? Saturn or Jupiter that will never bear life (or maybe not??)? With only one example is hard to talk about average, min or max of some group. We need at least 2 other examples to have idea where POSSIBLE are we.
