Re: Why not use Rust for BT?

Yes its possible to create third party programs to control bots. In my case i did that with javascript and send commands to the server. But this works only for high level control of bots, else you have to recreate and simulate more and more of the engines gamestate and rules. And sooner or later you...

Re: gameplay: to hard-code or to not hard-code, that is the question

I think that would become more complicated to use. currently this would be only int buildTime = BG_Buildable( buildable )->buildTime; I see now a bit the problem with cvars usage in code. How would it be to use cvars only as an interface for players and storage for values. instead of reading config ...

Re: gameplay: to hard-code or to not hard-code, that is the question

My opinion on this is Cvars to the max :grin: Let players and server owners experiment as much as they want. It outsources testing and experimenting and if there come up interesting changes they could be adapted. It also offers a gateway for players to become interested in modding and could bring mo...

Re: General thoughts on Unvanquished - project wise

I don't think there is much real conflict, one could think otherwise by listening to our designated grumpy old man, but he also likes to exaggerate :grin: But that's also a part of the unv family, there are voices of different amounts of considerateness and opposing opinions that assemble to build s...

Re: Bug-Alien combat game (tabletop) - Inspiration for Round based Gameplay!

How would the round based part work?

I had also thought about having some framework to divide the game in different phases of building, attacking and defending.
Something like that could make 1v1 more feasible but i fear it would also make the game more stale with less freedom and more repetition.

Re: make low aliens dangerous in their base, even to battlesuits

This. Look at date. What has been changed? Nothing. No hope for this game anymore. You can look for a future news post that proves you wrong. :bsuit: https://unvanquished.net/upcoming-gameplay-changes/ The easier evolving made base defense much better. Before that aliens had to leave the base to ev...

It's too late now this game is forgotten and uninstalled. :thumbdown:

Just saying since this topic was started, two years ago, game activity has quadrupled or so (at some times even more). :grin:
