Starting to populate our initial level with objects after gray boxing. Attempting to keep the final file size down, we'll try to reuse textures. This texture will get used a lot since a lot of items are made of wood or we can use it as cracked mud.
Next up
Readjusting and remaking some of the mechanical animations for the Lee Enfield rifle. It's now more accurate.
More asset creation. This 1907 bayonet will be at the end of our Lee Enfield rifle but also around trenches and other areas.
Debug lines! Testing firing-ranges and damage fall off from distance, as well as targeting various groups of enemies with a bit of chaos mixed in.
Testing enemy AI is complex and visual debugging and feedback is an integral step to figure out what's going on in real time. Thanks to our AI programmer James on getting the enemy AI in.
Revamped the targeting system to be more chaotic, like battles tend to be.
There was a bug where, if the unit was coming from the flank, only the one corner solder would be targeted, essentially getting all the bullets.
Testing out some battle tactics. I should introduce some randomness and skills so this doesn't happen in an actual game.
Making things more realistic is just making it more chaotic and less perfect.
I won!? Still not sure I believe it! I'm still playing on the PS1, so this will be a huge upgrade for me! Now I can't say I've haven't won anything, anymore! Thanks so much to the Game Jolt!!!!
Testing out the new targeting system. Enemy soldiers on the front line are most vulnerable to getting hit.
Animated with the Lee-Enfield rifle. Almost ready to put this into the game so we can remove the default hand. It's not 100% but beats the robot hand. Let me know what you think!
Working on the targeting control, to make it a bit more random and chaotic for battle. Yellow lines are for debugging.
