  • Thanks, i'm going to look over this capx today.

    yes, the zoom should move with the dragging tile. so on touch(if zoom is on) the screen zooms to the tile. Then upon dragging the tile. the scroll keeps with the tile.

  • Nope, one of my favourite drama games I ever played. Didn't even know I liked Drama games until I played Ace Attorney.

    What your talking about is cluster based networking. yes that was my plan :D. there is interest of course. If you want to do it. Please go ahead. This would save Velotjet and me great time for some one else to handle it :)

    I was starting to do the PoC Here. But then I was faced with 2 problems.

    1. Photon doesn't have Channels or Routes. They only have from what I can tell are isolated lobbies. So i couldn't sit cluster server to be the game logic for mutliple rooms :(

    2. I would have needed to install Visual Studio Express. We all have our bias for coding langauges. I won't work with .NET unless I'm paid. I'm not being paid. I won't touch it. :D

    instead if no one set's up a C2 cluster network. I plan to use NodeJS Tycho or ActionHero. Which both can be configured for cluster networking :)

    My question is. Would people pay a descent amount of money on Kickstart for a team to get this going. Or pay an X amount for a plugin. I would love to quit my job :D

    Yes, You could do DDtank like game. However, that game looks like it will have a lot of server based code. So it's going to be a lot of work and at this moment. Your going to need to learn a programming language... unlsess of course some one get's a cluster network going :)

    I don't know. This wave of "is there online multiplayer" questions has a different feel to it.

    uuggg, your not the only one then. That's blowing my mind. Last night I had internet problem. So I rebooted the network. This gave my server a new IP. With a new IP I needed to update the game connection. I updated IP. Now here is the strange part. FF, Opera no problem. They get the new Ip address that was uploaded to the website. However, and this boggles me. Chrome is not. In fact I cleared various browsing data to empty the cache. Yet still on a fresh download the old IP address stuck in the code.

    I'm not sure why our 2 copies of Chrome are using old versions. Maybe there is a webserver setting I can check on. It's annoying me :(

    Two? that's a first, what's odd is that you were controlling them both. can you let me know your OS, hardware and location.

    As for the mini teleports. That's expected behaviour. That's caused by two factors.

    1. TCP/WS. TCP requires that the message is verified by the client and server. So the data is sent, recieved, then a confirmation is sent back before it's used. Then the data is ordered and used(if out of order) This increases overall lag. UDP(which is not standard yet) is a fire and forget. So TCP is naturally laggy.

    2. Well developed TCP games even in real time. use dead reckoning and client prediction. These allow for player correction that is invisible to other players(unless extreme lag). however, the test shooter is very brute force. If the game clients are out of 'sync' the game will do a brute force correction which will look like teleport. So this is as intended, but only because it's simple... and not a feature :P

    I'm not sure what's going on here. My friend who lives in the same city had a similar 10 seconds problem. However his starts fine in first 10 seconds, but then has lag problems after that.

    Interesting enough. That's why the game starts entry players with 10 seconds of shields. So you can't be hit, and you can't hit back. The 10 second shield is only to compensate for entry syncing, memory sorting...

    I understand you pain. I just added the referenced bindings(ZQ) to the project. I'm not sure when it will go live, but it's there.

    I ended up using WASD or left keyboard bindings because of manual key checking for state updates. Also I'm not sure I will add more weapons, but if I do I wanted quick access to the number keys.

    As for lag, well sounds like your in Europe. I consider 1 second lag to be amazing considering I'm in West Coast Canada :D. If only we had R-UDP :D. We could probably cut that in half or more :D

    Thanks for the positive comments for those that managed to play.

  • True Valhalla

    Appreciate the information. I was wondering about that. I need to find a team artist then :D

    love your blog by the way.

  • True Valhalla

    I have a question. Do you do your own art for licensed games or do they provide the art?

  • Main menu, I thought something catchy, quirky adventure ish could capture the mind. sorta like a earworm.

  • well. I'll try to have everything up and running. Even if I'm a sleep or getting my kids off to school.

    Thanks for the testing Wink :) I think I finally saw some jumping, but it was quick and didn't seem so bad. Considering there is no compensation.

  • Wink

    aaahhh... I think the 100 players would kill my bandwidth :D Your right though. I would like to see performance at 4/8/16 players. It's not written to handle any specific number. So I'm sure problems will occur with only a handful.

    Once I finish my Ouya game I'll probably see if there is interest to taking local mp, to online Mp.

    I'm located in Vancouver, BC, Canada as is the server. Let me know where your located so I know the distance is involved.

    I'll be leaving the server up. But I can't garuntee how it will work through the night with sleep mode on. Also i'll be ending my client connection tonight. So the server might/probably be empty.

  • Thank you very much. Appreciate the comment.

    I wrote the plugin myself.

    No sound was added to the game at all. the game itself was a quick throw together

    Must reiterate. the aiming is wonky at the side :(

  • Hello, just been tinkering with some net coding stuff. It would be awesome if some fantastic forum developers could give the "game" a quick test. It's very rudimentary, most bugs are out and there was no bugs cropping up in the last dozen tests.

    If any bugs alert windows popup let me know. Not sure if i'll bug fix anytime soon; as it's already taken 3 days away from my primary game.

    Important

    * Tested on Chrome, FF, Opera. May not work with IE

    * Click "Join Game". DON'T CLICK ON IT MORE THAN ONCE. BE PATIENT. There is a 3 second delay after connecting to the server to validate the arena room has been joined. Should take apx 4 to 10 seconds to join the game. Clicking on Join Game more than once, will just break it. Might fix later :P

    * You will Enter the match with 10 seconds of shields. Your shield will block your own shots.

    * Controls are WASD

    * Shoot with left clickwdsss

    * 10 health

    * get disconnected when 0 health

    * Mouse Aiming is funny when at the arena borders(fix is low priority)

    * no dead reckoning,

    * no client prediction

    * websocket, not UDP. So there is a delay. Attempted to balance shooting a little

    * will leave the server up, but my computer sleep modes at night.

    * timeout after 3000 seconds

    * No idea if it works outside my network

    * the server I'm running IP might change. tonight, tomorrow, next month

    * 100 player limit.... I garuntee the game won't run well. I have no idea if it will run well with 1 player over the internet :D

  • Bump after 2 days, I have found no solution. If anyone can take a look I would appreciate it. Also the current zoom magnifier is the number in the bottom right corner(1,25,50.. in percentages).

    I can't seem to figure this out. Zoom keeps on scrolling to the upper left corner. :(

  • Why would you want the joystick to move when the character does?

    Wouldn't you want the Character TO MOVE when TOUCH-ing the joystick?

    oh, ps. We indeed DO NOT HAVE a tutorial with 33+ thousand views

    This is not one of the most popular tutorial
