Vehicles?

Post by Whoo »

Is it possible to make vehicles you can get in out of, and drive? :?:

I have figured out a way, though the problem is
1) It's untested because I haven't bothered to try to make it.
and
2) A thorough explaination would take up too much room, even with a spoiler tag.

So I'll start working on it, and if it works, I'll post it.

Drivable objects in doom? Not possible, not even in zdoom if I know that. If that were possible then well hell I wouln't know. I doubt it, doom is not 3d techically so there for there is not way a 3d model of a car or whatever can be driven inside the game.

Sweet video. I especially liked the parts of it that I coded. 8]

I'm pretty fond of the doomguy using the escape door to get a better angle. :)

How does the player get in the sub in the first place?

Man do I love the sounds of underwater subs!

In this case, the player starts out in the sub, but it'd be easy for us to check whether the player is underneath the sub and have him then come in through the trapdoor that you saw him fall through in the video.

So in turn, you can have one team trying to overtake the other team's subs?

Yes, it would actually be possible for us to allow the player to exit their sub through the trapdoor, then enter the other sub and slit some throats. We have other, equally cool things in mind to do instead though (however, I'm not completely ruling it out, and it's definitely possible and quite easy). :)

what happens if someone is in a sub when it dies? does the sub sink and crash and implode or does it do something more multiplayer friendly?

The code for this isn't finished yet, but a ton of explosions will occur inside the sub, an alarm will sound, the lights will turn red and fade to black, and then the players' views will be switched to the viewpoint of a camera spawned outside of the sub so that they can watch it sinking. While they're watching it sink, the sub's interior will be reset to its non-destroyed state and a new sub will be spawned. Then it'll kill all the players, respawning them back in the sub again.

Yes, if the sub dies, flashing red lights dizzify and sirens blare. The light eventually fades to complete darkness in the chaos and all players in the sub are annihilated.
