This was something i was working on before i ran out of memory my plan is for enterable buildings there will be a level with all the insides in sections

but for this to happen i will need to somehow work out a spawn script of sort so you teleport to the correct location do you guys think this will be possible ?



Ps it is floating as it has its own ground so will be good if the option to have no terrain is implemented.

I think it's quite possible as long as "levels" aren't linear as they seemed to be in FPSC (I only played with it for a couple months, but I understood that once you moved to a new level, you couldn't go back). The teleporters in FPSC worked well, and with the size of the world available to us now, it could be "faked" pretty easily. I have dabbled in something similar in DBPro, and simply destroyed my current world and replaced it with a new one, and vice-versa. To make Reloaded all that they envision, it would almost have to be a feature, or something a clever Lua scripter could implement. (I'm thinking Avram or DVader). BTW, your city looks awesome! Someday I may strap on my Oculus Rift and take a tour of it. (Hopefully fully armed, of course)

Hi,



Excellent work on the city, it looks great.



Once Beta 1.006 is out of the door and we have a fast, stable engine to work from, we'll be focusing on AI and LUA scripting. This will enable us to look at starting to look at additional features, such as teleports (which is a pretty easy feature to code compared to some requests .)



That said, I think everyone will agree that a focus on creating great AI should be the priority, and we've learnt our lessons that trying to do too much too quickly can often cause delays. So, the plan is AI.... LUA (How much is added here for Beta 1.007, relys on how long the AI takes).

personally i want 2 way area transitions linked by x/y co ords maybe even x/y/z co ords, i dont think it would be to hard to do its been done in other older engines.

just a case of linking doors to maps and back again. aurora engine does this and even has a setup wizard to make it even easier and that was 10 years ago.. so if reloaded cant do this relitively easily then something is going wrong somewhere imo..



@tattie

are the buildings from tgc m8 or from somewhere else they look cool from what i can see of them lol, or did you model them yourself or something??

Hi guys thanks for the feedback

I hope this isn't the case m8 as some games are based on that idea.

Now this is good to hear as the AI is missing a few marbles lol

This is something i would also like and it would make sense to add it.

No m8 made them myself most are boxes so were easy to do.

cool, would save a lot of time, conkit will be fun but skyscrapers would take some time planning and restarts I would think!! and without lifts to take you up higher a lot of stairs lol...

Nice looking city. Must have taken ages to model all those. I am guessing you duplicate a few, but still, that looks like a lot of modelling and texture work there!

I'm pretty sure teleporting will be added later on, either as a basic option or a script. Teleporting around the same level would be easy enough. Even between levels should be fairly easy, but could add complications such as remembering what state you left each level in and adding some loading time, which obviously wouldn't be the case for a single level. I've already requested these and other options, but until work is done on performance and such we will have to wait I guess.

Your right some are duplicates with different textures and some are the same all together but spaced out so you don't notice as much but its pretty big almost fills the map .



The complications could be solved by some way like saving the map as you exit that way its the same way you left off not sure but i suppose as you said we will see.

As soon as we are able to control player's X,Y an Z position in LUA, making an in-level teleport will be a breeze. Cross level teleport would depend on engine's support.

I think this would be an awesome feature to have implemented.



I've just completed my last model for my stargate game. While it is still in dire need of textures, the blender bake still gives it a nice feel.



I just hope this can be implemented sooner rather than later.
