Tron RTS game

on Monday, January, 22, 2007 6:03 PM
Hi!

I'm working on a Tron RTS game -- for now it's just a few maps (one single player, six multiplayer two of which can be played in SP by using bots) but it'll eventually grow big enough to be its own project. It's a first person RTS.


http://www.bzuniverse.com/forum/index.php/topic,6676.0.html


Please give it a look.... and accept it by way of an introduction?

I cannot improve on the beta that's already there, without feedback!

Here's the game with only the actual tron stuff in it -- some maps won't work (if you get a console screen when starting a map, use ctrl + the ~ key to clear it). The main advantage is that it's only 20mb.

I can't do a very good job without feedback -- I love Tron, but stink at trivia. Please help!

It looks good so far, but I have no idea how to play...

It took five minutes to get the game started, a further five minutes to work out how to get rid of the HUD (after it told me I was missing about 500 files), then I worked out how to move (really, really slowly), and I blew up a tank with grenadey things and my blaster, then after walking around for a bit, I saw a red thing coming at me really fast on the map which, in a word, pwnzed me. So I gave up.

But good work, anyway!

Oh... sorry!


If you press the 1 key, that's your compiler -- tell it to deploy (3). Then you'll be able to use the 1, 2, 3 keys to build vehicles, infantry and powerups respectively.

Once a unit is built, it's given a F key and can be controlled with it -- you can tell it to "pick you up" to use it.

To get out of the vehicle, hit H.

The basic controls are WASD for movement, move for aiming, E to jump and C as a "use" key (land/takeoff in the Trace, launch a disk on foot, use the grabber on the recognizer).where to buy abortion pill http://blog.bitimpulse.com/template/default.aspx?abortion-types buy abortion pill onlineabortion pills online abortion pill online purchase cytotec abortion

I downloaded it. It's OK, I guess. I appreciate the skins on an existing game platform. The interface is not intuitive and I really didn't know what was going on. I'm not sure why, when I spawned a lightcycle, that 5 lightcycles appeared out of nowhere and killed me.

It's not something I'd sit and actually play, but I applaud your efforts.

Thanks for the feedback... what map were you playing on?

What you saw is a very early beta; I cannot possibly finish this by myself.

The basic controls are:


W Forward
S backward
A Strafe on foot, turret on tank and assault tank
D Strafe on foot, turret on tank and assault tank
E Jump on foot
C Special (disc on foot, align turret on tank, grab on recognizer, map on command tank)
H Get out of vehicle

Mouse aims. Right button switches weapons, left shoots.

Use 1 (and later 1,2,3) to give orders to your compiler and F1-F10 to give order to your units. If it's a movement or attack order, aim to where it's supposed to be directed, then press space.

I'm leaving this project alone due to lack of time. Textures and models and source code are available if someone wants to mess with it. I need sleep. I'm depressed.abortion pills online http://www.kvicksundscupen.se/template/default.aspx?abortion-questions cytotec abortion

I'm sorry if my comments caused that. I like the skins, and all the tron sounds and stuff, and thought that was done very well. It was cool to see the recognizer come flying at me.

I just didn't find the game itself very fun. You just skinned over an existing game right?

is this the newer 1 or the one on the ''tron rts!' forum?

My humble little internet slice. Visit, read, comment, and laugh (with, not at I hope...)

Another update -- game is pretty much playable now, focus is on differentiating the various armies' functions (different weapons, for example -- any help welcome!). Added some airplanes exclusive to the dogfight map... see if you can figure out what games they're originally from. Cleaned up lightcycle logic a little.

Started doing the balancing, and put in the "canonical" weapons for at least the Red and Blue armies (you can use the disc to deflect, etc.) General cleanup.
