Screenshots, Post 'em if you got 'em

Confused

I have been playing around with generating a village.

Basically right now spamming a pair of prefabs into a randomly designated set of points and then running around in them. Setup some angry villagers just because.




The idea is to setup a few different prefabs and have an area that spawns at random full of bad guys to shoot. The next step will be making the building prefabs decide what to spawn each time I make one.

I'm interested to see what the rest of you are up to with future prefect right now. Any one else doing cool things?

Cool idea! I'm looking forward to see what you have planned for the villagers.

Working on the heist game now. This is our (placeholder art) robot:

I like that village! (Edited your post to fix the second pic not showing up - hope you don't mind).

Working on getting loads of art from Fox3D, our outsource guys, into the game. Here's the laser wall, which will surely be a good fit for any heist game.

Insane, thanks for the fix. I played around some more today. It looks like the way i started to do thing was almost right, just need to script the creation of the sub blueprints instead including them. I guess the best option is to use the stack blueprint as a model.

anyway before I do that, a few more screenshots.


mistakes with spawners

I'm not entirely sure what's going on in those screenshots, but I 100% approve!

Did you write an automator to do that?

I tried to mimic the Label functionality. So there is an automator that creates the text in edit mode. Additionally there is a script that listens for the SetText event.
Was kind of tricky to combine both with lots of pitfalls. I.e. the automator crashes when calling World_SendMessage in edit mode and there is no way to determine if the game is started. Also the script cannot call the automator, therefore the algorithm to place characters needs to be present in both. This then requires all the fields (e.g. line spacing, horizontal alignment, ...) to be synchonized between both.
On the other hand, the automator maybe called even after the game was started, so now there is the script and the automator running at the same time, trying to do the same thing, interfering with each other. etc.

It's in the workshop.
