Re: Sweet Revenge Development Thread
That was clear, but if side 2 fired the catapult, side 1 cannot do this next turn, because the resetting of vars is in a side {SIDE} turn. Missed this.bigkahuna wrote:No, you misunderstood. It only works if you move ANY unit next to a repaired catapult.
They work really great, and the impact anim is amazing (and the mechanism saved my life, because it destroyed the bridge, which is an overlay)What did you think of the catapults in general?

Re: Sweet Revenge Development Thread
I fixed this in the last update. It was an error from not resetting the moves of the catapult, which was a required variable to fire (messed up allied side's turn, like you noticed). What you noticed was the AI catapult configuration, which is used in the next big siege scenario.Ceres wrote:That was clear, but if side 2 fired the catapult, side 1 cannot do this next turn, because the resetting of vars is in a side {SIDE} turn.

Wow that is a brilliant idea I didn't think of! I knew thatCeres wrote:(and the mechanism saved my life, because it destroyed the bridge, which is an overlay)
Really that was cool that you thought of that. So upload the next version and it will fix the catapult bug. Currently coding the 8th scenario.

Re: Sweet Revenge Development Thread
Random complaining about the catapult:
What is with this wimpy catapult? It only does 20 damage to enemies, and will only affect a single unit. [sarcasm] yipee, I can take out a peasant from time to time. [/sarcasm] I know, I know, WINR, HAPMA, UAPEB and all that. But I was kind of expecting a catapult to do some damage, even if it's only a few hp to the surrounding units. In addition, why are you using the tower sprite for the catapult when there's a perfectly good catapult sprite someone made? Check the brave wings campaign, it has the sprite in it IIRC.

I laughed when I saw that. Yeah, it is a bit wimpy. But this:Mountain_King wrote:[sarcasm] yipee, I can take out a peasant from time to time. [/sarcasm]
Means nothing to me. Sorry. If I raised it to like 50, it would be a bit overpowered. I've been tempted to just incinerate the entire surrounding area to make it look more AWESOME. I may put in some collateral damage. See bottom of post.Mountain_King wrote:WINR, HAPMA, UAPEB
Brave Wings catapult sprite is has a pretty over-medievalinated look. Also, the mechanics are difficult... I'd have to code something to rotate the picture a certain way whenever the boulder launched in a certain direction, which would look pretty stupid. Finally, the Brave Wings wasn't even a unit; it was a scenery placement which they animated to *look* like it was launching at a random unit. It wasn't made to launch in different directions.Mountain_King wrote:why are you using the tower sprite for the catapult when there's a perfectly good catapult sprite someone made?

Re: Sweet Revenge Development Thread
Yeah sorry about that. I put in a BUNCH of dialogue changes and such but forgot that one important one. I'll get on it. Thanks for playing that far, I think that you are the first to do it.figl569 wrote:When I kill all of the bandits that killed father of my hero nothing happened. no dialoge no objective complete nothing. the smae will happen when i kill all bandits that attack the elf
And you mean the second scenario, right? Unless you haven't updated the version, yet
Ah, the trials of a campaign maker How I wish I could. I think 35-40 damage would be good. I'll start working on it.Reepurr wrote:D - COMPLETELY INCINERATE LEVEL

Re: Sweet Revenge Development Thread
Umm... What exactly is that supposed to do?
All that does is make sure that the catapult only harms units that are level 3. Is that code that you need to use, or you're just throwing out there, or what...?

Re: Sweet Revenge Development Thread
last scenario
When I kill the first dwarwish leader it wrote to me that iI have 2 turns to recruit but these turns count from the first turn not from turn when I kill leader.

Re: Sweet Revenge Development Thread
Strange. I'll take a look at that once I fix the first, second, third scenarios and the catapult
Congratulations on finishing(ish) the first part of the campaign! What did you think of it?

Re: Sweet Revenge Development Thread
Ahh... Okay I get it. It sounded like you were saying incinerate the entire level in three secondsReepurr wrote:D - COMPLETELY INCINERATE LEVEL <3s (otherwise do 30-40)
I don't really agree with that. Here is what I will do (or try...):
Main Impact: Kills level 0s, level 1s, hurts level 2s by 35-40, level 3s by 25-30.
Collateral damage: Kills level 0s, hits level 1s 20-25, hits level 2s 10-15, hits level 3s 5-10.
What do you think?
EDIT: I'm going to do it anyway, so forget the "what do you think" Thanks for the ideas.

Re: Sweet Revenge Development Thread
You are doing one big mistake there! When you will be least expecting it, advocates of COMPLETELY INCINERATE will strike (probably in your sleep) you in the most unconfortable way and make you pay!bigkahuna wrote:EDIT: I'm going to do it anyway, so forget the "what do you think" Thanks for the ideas.Reepurr wrote:D - COMPLETELY INCINERATE LEVEL <3s (otherwise do 30-40)

0.0.7 is out, with groundbreaking changes involving large explosions... The next scenario is due anytime now, hopefully the next release (when I fix all the bugs in it).
EDIT: 0.0.8 is out, fixed some x,y placements from cropping a map.
EDIT: The next scenario is out! To celebrate, I skipped 0.0.9
LARGE AND RATHER IMPORTANT EDIT (no double-posting for me!):
0.1.5 is out! It includes another scenario (this time RPG style!), a huge code-cleanup (mostly for my benefit), and other such internal changes. The fourth scenario was made easier and smaller-scale so as to reduce frustration.
Silent Update: Fixed bug which never let you get reinforcements in the RPG scenario, fixed the RPG scenario again.
