Game Development: Map Rabbit

[Glorthan]

if you guys have some time to kill, a super basic character design would be amazing

3 faces and body types per gender
5 hair styles per gender
5 hair colors

game gets 100x more unique. hell, make it a member's only feature. i'd pay for that

Jorb, in order to make this actually possible, perhaps have a few different hair models per actual hair style, and configure the model for different equipment. For example for the female hair hair models, one almost bald model with just red scalp colouring in case someone uses cam bad and can see the fringe, for really tight fitting hats and cloaks, one model with the pony tail bit and coloured scalp, for hats that have the pony tail exposed, and the current one, for very loose fitting hats - or no hat.

I think this would really help with a lot of your modelling problems that you seem to have with the hair models in particular painfully clipping through objects where the hair shouldn't even really be visible. This way for each equipment item you could select a different hair model to use, if required.

Make horse hair harvestable and wigs from horse hair. And make it go into the hat slot.
Then add beard wigs and masks to hide the ugliness.

If you put a plate helmet on a female, you will notice that we already employ that strategy. It is not a panacea, however, unless you consider always turning the pony tail off as an acceptable solution.

Stonewalls!

Agree, I also thought so
It hould be just stones or stones and clay. Should be something between the fence and palisade (for example, players with 100 strength should be able to destroy that (stronger, if clay is used). It could be something useful for early players.
Something that look like this.

Also, it sound logical to use bricks for buildings rather than for a wall. A brick house with metal roof maybe

The new map is awesome, I didn't really understand what it did yesterday, lol, it's brilliant!

I would like to be able to move on it though as someone suggested yesterday, think it was Jacobian, by clicking, like you can with the minimap ... some of the resources are now mapped from another char and it would be handy to be able to click to head there with my main and also when doing quests and when visiting ppl.

But regardless, I love it!


@ Flyrella ... yw.

- Being able to move while holding an item on the cursor

Already possible by Ctrl-clicking, in fact.

loftar, you should make it so that map cache is saved separately from other cached files. That way people would be able to move map data between different PCs. If you need, I can send you pull request or something.

Rather, I'm planning to add an export/import format.

Being able to move by clicking via minimap is useful because it helps you get your bearings when you're wandering around in all the similar looking forests and other terrain and constantly rotating the camera. A quick click on the minimap and you know what direction you need to go from that point.
