I thought of a gravity point,

All players will 'fly' there. Sure, polygons will stop them before ^^

This would really screw up Soldat's gameplay and physics...

Lol it would be a fun script though.

how exactly is FLYING TOWARDS POINT realistic?
i probably don't understand what the fuck you're talking about but w/e

if you say fuck, than fuck you! [just joke]
It will be like earth.
our earth isnt a plane, its a sphere!

I have no fucking clue, but if you want no gravity bullshit, I don't think it's possible.

You can always make a map that contains teeny tiny land for flag+base, and rest of the map to fly around with HUGE amount of jet.

F11...

1) Soldat is 2D not a sphere like a planet, so have a centrally located point to draw things to it, would be completely useless
2) It is useless...and would be a waste of coding time that could be used for things that are helpful/beneficial to the actual gameplay

Do you have any fucking idea how gravity even works?!

... But we're out side, not inside... In soldat, people will just fall off the edge...

Scale will not be realistic then.

/fail

what the fuck is this guy talking about?

N. Escalona · « **Reply #11 on:** February 18, 2009, 05:20:30 am »

Am I really the only one besides Espadon who understands what this guy is talking about? It's not that complicated conceptually. Gravity towards points, not down. Zero gravitation in the down direction, while all objects are instead accelerated towards preset points according to the inverse square law.

Yes obviously the scale would be unrealistic, but could make for some very interesting gameplay IMO. Implementation could be difficult, I know nothing about game coding though.

Dammit, beat me to it. While I'm not in love with the idea, part of me is curious to try it out. It would open up a world of spacelike maps.

iDante · « **Reply #13 on:** February 18, 2009, 05:23:59 am »

If it's any consolation, the downward gravity can be changed in 1.5 . It'd be interesting to be able to change the gravity along the y and x axis, but for now I'd say the y is fine.

N. Escalona · « **Reply #14 on:** February 18, 2009, 05:24:48 am »

I envision strings of 'asteroids,' with loads of jet and really fuxed up aiming.

scarface09 · « **Reply #15 on:** February 18, 2009, 05:27:43 am »

Hmmm, I sort of understand what this Gravity middle point thing is now. Although I don't think it would look good. Like all the players are sucked sort of like a blackhole kind of thing? What would the point of this be? Sounds to me kind of useless...explain more deeply please.

LORD KILLA · « **Reply #16 on:** February 18, 2009, 08:32:47 am »

lol,It could be in realistic mode.

And yes, I know what gravity is, we all know [its just hardeer to code

instead of making us laugh, or even cry, think better crap to suggest next time.

-Major- · « **Reply #18 on:** February 18, 2009, 02:04:32 pm »

well... if you did a round map, it would be the same thing as if it was a plane. except the vision would be diffrent. this could make some fun game play, but it would certainly not be worth it.

croat1gamer · « **Reply #19 on:** February 18, 2009, 02:32:51 pm »

i think the maps would then needed to get a new format (to place the gravity placeholder)
which we dont want
