Hello,
I m wondering if its possible to make a simple Command and Conquer clone with TGF2?
By simple I mean:
1.You click on friendly unit.
2.Then select an enemy unit.
3 Friendly unit moves towards and shoots at enemy unit.
Thank you in advance,
Steam Bucky
In TGF2 I don't know but in MMF2, I think it's possible.
I've never played Command and Conquer, but from your description, I'd think that you could make a game like that with MMF2. I don't have TGF2, though.
Never played C&C!!!!!!??? You haven't lived yet!! That was one of the first RTS games.
It's definitely possible w/ MMF2. I don't know about TGF2 though. Do fast loops work with TGF2? I can't remember. If they do, then yes, you can make it with TGF2.
Thank you for you answers - people on this forum are damn helpful.
cheers
When using single units only it's more of a Dune clone :)
I wouldn't dare to select and move multiple units, but single unit movement can surely be done. Assuming the route to the target contains obstacles which need to be passed or require to check for a line of sight when attacking, you should already have some skills using TGF/MMF, of course.
I don't know about TGF2 because, the fog of war could be difficult or impossible if TGF2 don't have required extensions like "Overlay Redux".
its very possible to move multiple units, just requires some smart coding =)
I didn't say it's impossible, but probably beyond my abilities and it's most likely not an option for the "simple clone" he want's to create :)
If you want to do it right, you'd not only have to select and move the units correctly, but also keep some kind of formation or at least a little distance between units. Which requires really smart coding, considering MMF (and the user himself, too, in many cases) is easily confused with complex instructions for multiple instances of an object.
very possible . . .its been possible since tgf1/mmfx.
Fog of war would be one limitation with tgf/mmfx, but you could probably find a work around too.
