Movable Objects

[Yes]

What if in Soldat we had crates that when you shoot with a weapon like the M79 they moved because of the explosion. That would make it seem a little more realistic.

[InuYasha]

isn't it same as animated sceanry? I won't think MM would do something like that.

[amb2010]

I think movable scenery is the same as movable polygons which is sstated in the rules to not suggest....and no it would take too much time/code to make and probably lag people with slow computers.

It's been suggested and it wasn't even close to winning. It would be pretty cool, but then again, it wouldn't. Waaay too messy, if you ask me.

[Lord Frunkamunch]

Basically, if this was possible it would be added asap. Everyone wanted it, but with Soldat's map code it just. Can't. Be. Done.

[BondJamesBond]

Not that it can't be done, but as echo_trail suggested, it would be too messy. Remember how many nades, explosions, and bullets are constantly flying across the screen. Imagine the crates bouncing on the bullets, seemingly floating in the air. Not real realistic.

In single-player offline mode, pickups can be knocked around by bullets and explosions. This doesn't happen online because of lag issues, I believe. Scenery or other objects wouldn't be any different.

read the forum rules. this one isn't allowed.
it would be great to have it but its just not feasible.
can a mod delete this topic please before it gets filled with people flaming each other over this please?

I just pictured someone getting axed in the face with a crate. Good times XD

[BlueBerry Pie]

Too much coding time and the current format couldn't support this.

I say F12 if it wer possible ;p

[adadqgg]

it would probaly be like a health box, just bigger.

f12.

[Biscuiteer]

This would require a physics engine to be implemented into Soldat - which would take alot of time. It also would remove the classic Soldat 'feel' as well. I'd rather have the developers concentrate on more useful stuff than being able to shoot boxes around...

[O.R.I.O.N.]

As much as this would make Fistbox even more endlessly entertaining, it's asking for trouble. Implementing moveable scenery objects that respawn after not being touched for long enough...that'd be a bitch to script. Especially if they act as player-colliding polys. You could fill chokepoints with them and shit; be hella annoying for other players. F11
