I suppose the question is: does the existing engine allow having 3 weapons? Just a random thought I had. I've never tried but I think it would be pretty straightforward to do in the dev console.

If I can get a me sized pair of ammo drums for Zeus' I think it'd be easy peasy, but you'd be having a Time otherwise.

Pay a Tomahawk pilot to follow you around like a Gradius Option. Arm them with a Zeus/Galinha combo.

Maybe the gate controls would be constantly fought over, and would open and close every so often, and sometimes when open more enemies would show up and start wrecking poo poo. Of course, this would leave less of the map available for you to blow up yourself

SpaceClown posted:I'd want to see if the spacers are actually that much more combat effective than their counterparts. Shields up or shields down? If it's a matter of who shoots first on sight, many spacers that are not just lockdown delivery boys would do better just because of their guns being more "accurate", or hard radiation with a side of eye laser But most loyalsts units actually landing hits will ruin anybody's day. At the very least, if it was a fight between just their shield pinata units I'd bet on the Loyalists Scarab's worlds slowest auto-cannon hands down.

I suppose the question is: does the existing engine allow having 3 weapons? Just a random thought I had. There's a very old build somewhere of Brigador that has a toggle for switching between a 2nd and 3rd weapon. But by old we're talkin 2013 old. Would probably be possible to do with some modest code work, but we're so slammed with everything else right now we can't afford to indulge that ourselves. Pornographic Memory posted:and just like any AI in the game they'll happily shoot through any friendly vehicles if there's an enemy on the other side We had a functioning version of this at one point actually, the problem is that one of the ways we made having a shitload of AI in-game efficient is that they're only ever searching for one target, allowed us to really simplify the maths. At one point we had "police" units that enemies would actively go after, the idea was that you'd come in and the place would be getting wrecked if it were Corvids or Spacers, but there were all kinds of problems with this both from gameplay and performance sides, so we dropped it. Soon as you start adding multiple targets into the fray for AI to look for you're getting exponential growth on the performance cost.

I'm just gonna say that Brigador: Dictator's Cut is a genius name and I'm going to leavea steam review tomorrow and then start playing with random loadouts because as much as I love the banshee and ploughman I tend to overuse them a wee bit much. Especially the ploughman. I love me some war crimes.

AI optimization on that scale is a bitch to implement, too. The only effective way is to do it how ToadyOne did it for DF and that takes a stupid amount of effort and devtime to get working properly.

hepatizon posted:That directional shield flicker was cool, what transpired? The original shield flares were sprite based. I quite liked the chromatic distortion but the issue was that it was one size fits all, so tiny units had massive shields and bigguns like the Citadel looked like they had shield boobs projecting out rather than a full ovoid shield. Also we had no way of showing that a unit's shields were up. So instead we switched to a programmatic version that Harry whipped up. If we'd had more time we might've been able to get fancier with the coloration and things, but the big this is that it was able to convey when a unit was shielded and also properly envelop vehicles of any size. You can actually manually change the dimensions of the shield bubble and coloration via individual unit files and the global.json.

Re: Infantry Since you already have your pilot picked beforehand, I was thinking instead of just 'Infantry' it would be more like a legendary call-sign.

dual bonesaws + EMP is fun when playing as infantry, but smoke is more practical because you can set up concealment anywhere which is crucial to survival.

Brigador worked out nicely because it's short enough to not need to buy surplus vowels. As well as less confusion on how to pronounce your game's name when reviewed
