I am developing on a mod or a game based on the glestcode.
I wanted to make a real new game at first, but now I realized, that it is
too much for me now to do both graphics and coding. So I decided to code the
basic concept first.
That's probably not very interesting for you, but I decided to have some
walls for it. Also I do not want to develop the graphics now, before code is
ready, I build those walls before this decision. It looks like the normal
ones in almost every other rts(
look here). But then I thought about magic walls.
My idea was to build ingame only column and if you want to make a wall, you
have to select two columns. Then you have the option to make some force
field between those. The only limitation is the width between the coumns.
And force fields have not to cross each other and no building, tree, or
moutain. You do not need any gates. You have the options to allow you people
and you friends to go though the field. And an enemy cannot destroy the
field only the columns. What do you think about this idea? Maybe it is a way
for glest?
If you do not understand all my text (I am not a native english speaking
person), you find an image of the magic force-field-wall-system
here(it is not ingame right now).
I do not need the graphics at the moment, so you can get it for mods and glest, too(although i did not got any answer from there).
I would finish my work then(do/finish the animated gate and started wooden wall, polish the textures, do the ingame-effects for magic walls).
I started with code for the wall-system, too. I would try to finish it, but I am not a very talented coder. So I do not know how long it would need.
