Week #5 - Map mask, scanlines and AI improvements


Howdy, dear followers! This week I made some good things. The first, is that I created a kind of map mask, that way actors don’t get into forbidden places (so no crashs).

I’m testing some scanlines for the game, they look cool imo, but not in everyone’s, so I’m making it possible to deactivate it if you wish.

I’m working in the village development AI too. A debug image:

The red rectangle shows where the AI is trying to place a building, it goes around the village main building and go getting far until it finds a free place.

I’m setting things up like actors/buildings database and it’s nothing I can actually show in screenshots, but lots of progress were made.

It nicely separates the snowy biome from the grassy one.

It's built with painted Ebonstone.

Some time ago, we posted a screenshot of the Mexico level. A curiosity about it is that, like some other scenarios of the game, it was inspired by a real landscape, The Basaltic Prisms of Santa María Regla. It is one of the natural wonders of the country!

Animation test. Not an actaul conclusion to who wins sonic vs Mario. Just a test animation combo.
