Thank you! Things have been super busy here, but I hope to actually get some time to do more on the game tomorrow.

If you happen to remember, could you message me when/if you complete the gameplay vid?

You have put so much thought into this game so far (just randomly saw a bit about values of different colours for colourblind people)! Details like that are often overlooked, but it means the difference in playable/non-playable games in some cases. It will be really great to see an example of it in action!

After all the stress of planning and finalizing something like a wedding, you're going to need a bit of time to relax. It'll be well earned though. Congratulations!

Thanks!

I've just started (finally) on adding in opportunity fire. This will take a bit of work, but when it's implemented in full it will make everything feel more like a game.

[happymonster]

First stage opportunity fire is now in! This took less time than I expected.

You can now be spotted by multiple enemies if you walk into their line of sight. They will each take a firing action at you in turn, which can be more than one shot depending on the weapon.

Currently they can see you from any angle if they have a line of sight, so I need to make them only check when the player would be within their 90 degree range of vision arc.

I also need to add in some alert text saying you have been spotted by x enemies (in the same way you get now when you spot enemies).

[happymonster]

Ok, I've now got the opportunity fire to work only if the player moves within the 90 degree range of view of an enemy.

At first I messed about with the angles, but this quickly got a bit messy due to the way angles wrap around from 360 to 0. So, I went for a simpler solution based on using the dx and the dy of the difference between the two units (enemy and yours). That works fine.

Next I need to add in a Spotted Alert.

Now added in a Seen by Enemy Alert.

It's coming along gentlemen..

I was wondering, what amount of hours a week do you spend on your game; it seems to have a so good progress rate !
I'm always frustrated as my projects don't progress much because I only work on it on my spare time, so I have only few hours a week...

Someone mentioned a gameplay video; have you made one yet? I'd be interested to see how this is all coming together.

It's a Trap!

Peous: Not that much with the wedding planning. I have more time at the weekend, but with a full time job as well it's difficult to progress that fast.
