Combat, air units and scenarios will be included in the next version (0.3).
I have heard of that project from a guy, Davy8x, who made Starcraft 0.1-0.6 Beta, where you had protoss and could use buildings and probes/zlots/goons. Though there was no combat nor exploration.
[Edit: Okydou, just need to find out that forum now...]

I assume so far the game have protoss only right?
Post by: Fallen Ghost on January 27, 2007, 09:27:00 am
My game has Zerg, Protoss and Terrans (currently, I have those 3) and I might add Mutated Zergs when I add the campaigns (yes, my game engine actually supports 4 races). And each of them has a separate utility bar in-game (currently has that feature).
Lol for the randomness moment!

I don't know, still trying to get the game working completely (combat, buildings, scenarios etc.).
You know the bonus/secret mission when you finish mission x (I don't remember the number) in the Broodwar campaign where you have to kill Duran and his zerg+protoss mutating experiments? I might have those.

The units can currently do what they are said to do, independently of each other (still respecting collision detection), at the time required.
Many processes/sec will do the job, just update all counters and then if counters have reached what they were supposed, then do the things. For allies and ennemies.

As for the screen, the max possible is 6*8 (tile count) and 5*8 if you have selected a unit. So a max of 48 units at the same time. For the process time, I'll try to make a system so that time is counted to allow continous speed.
The most of the time of process is made by drawing the unit and by fastcopying. (I think)

Anyways back on topic I cannot wait 'til this game is released this looks so sick. I love turn-based strategy games.
Post by: Fallen Ghost on February 03, 2007, 04:30:00 am
Dinhotheone, each side (ennemy and player) will have 200 units and 200 buildings.
48 is the max number of units viewable in the same time on the screen. Not the max unit possible that you can have.
Note this is going to be REAL-time strategy, not turn-based.

-Non-turn-based
-Exploration (possibly fog of war)
-Combat animations like in SC
Some functionalities, like pathfinding, will be excluded because they take too much processing and RAM (unless someone tells me how to do that).

And beta testers (Delnar_Ersike) also get to play the game while doing it! :P  Post by: dinhotheone on June 20, 2007, 08:15:00 am Post by: Fallen Ghost on June 20, 2007, 03:39:00 pm Post by: Liazon on June 21, 2007, 02:04:00 am Post by: Madskillz on June 21, 2007, 03:43:00 pm Post by: Fallen Ghost on June 26, 2007, 12:05:00 pm option #1: with 400 units+buildings total (aka 200 each), ~2.5 frames/sec with 200 units+buildings total (aka 100 each), ~4-5 frames/sec but units will target instantly while idle or attack move, and splash attacks will not create lag. option #2: with 400 units+buildings total (aka 200 each), ~4 frames/sec with 200 units+buildings total (aka 100 each), ~6-8 frames/sec but units will take 16 frames to search through all the units, and splash attacks (aka mass tanks or reaver) will induce lag like hell your choice?
