NO MORE ECOMS!

We need more war worlds.

By popular vote a War World is what you are going to get. Only give e awhile and I will do a War World. If you want feel free to suggest some things.

Shush.

I had a idea, Sometihng like IDRIS, but 3d.

Where the helicopter settings mighr move it up and down... With small fighter ships to large Capital Ships (As in GK's crow large)...

And there would be like two star bases where ye could buy em... N stuff... arr.

Hope you don't mean actual huge large vehicles... that doesn't work too well, twas why I implemented as crows (even then the framerate decrease was evil)

6-12 FPS was it?

(BTW I won't change Iridis,mwaha)
Set the gravity to 0 and it could be possible...but we'd need those reverse jetpacks (been awhile,have they been implmented?)
Or create a new control mode entirly...
(And why has no one though of this untill now? Don't tell me your all slow like mee

)

*coughs* There IS a style of gameplay en route... don't you remember? Um... similar to this, kinda sitting dormant in alpha server though....

Minku ment 3D,not 2D. Noted that he said helicopter mode so it be ships going up and down,not floating above stars

GK8000 · Post by **GK8000** » Thu Nov 17, 2005 5:38 am

It's kinda 3d.... but the heli idea I have tried... firstly you have a giant ship that is extremely hard to see/aim, as well as the frame rate situation, and that makes for hard flying (I've tried it with an imp stardestroyer model I found... you don't see that for obvious reasons)

zaroba · Post by **zaroba** » Thu Nov 17, 2005 11:49 am

would also make for hard or impossible playing for anybody that could see the model depending on thier pc specs.

kirby, if your waiting for a control mode, post it in the feature request forum
it'll probably never be added if its not requested

yes we have reverse jetpacks. and a helicopter control mode.

Kirby · Post by **Kirby** » Thu Nov 17, 2005 5:10 pm

Nah,I'm good with the control mode we have now. I keep it mind though if I get a good space-type world going.
(BTW Alpha server is like this just 2D,there's no bases but I remeber theres another subgame based off Netrek which again is 2D but it's in space and I'm think capturable bases/planets or whatever...)

Helicopter - X - Spaceship
If you really want a world like this possible Minku your gonna have to request a new spaceship control mode (and the world setttings to along with it like no ground,etc)
I have plans...

zaroba · Post by **zaroba** » Thu Nov 17, 2005 10:01 pm

thiers space mode 1 and 2. think alpha uses mode 2.

it turns various buildings into the various planet types which are capturable. or were at least. used to be able to load marines from one planet and drop them off at an enemy planet to kill all its marines. then thierd be an option to capture it when the enemy planet had no marines left.

the current alpha server set-up was the origional galaxy. used to be able to land on the center planet and get a list of worlds that were useing it as a gateway and be able to connect to any of them. anybody that was around in the fall of 2002 probably remembers this being called Star Trek Galaxies

mode one is similer. but instead of a full space like appearence it just forces everybody into crow. it also lifts any walls into the sky. compined with the bullet bounce stuff, this could be used to make a maze or other obstical course for players to fight in in crows.
