I may have found something I missed. that will free me from having a total rewrite.


maybe LOL

Prime_8

ok seems I have the ship movement synced .. now it's just the weapons  :P

also some pics of spectacular fails.

here the bullets would only come out and halt allowing for some funky looking effects if I spun the ship.

Would be cooler if that's what it was supposed to be doing .LOL

But quite by accident I now know a way to do epic explosions .


scifieric

Yes, I would agree with that!

there could be something to that ..  I must not get side tracked to make a fireworks demo .LOL

Last night Jim and i came up with a couple possible fixes for the bullets. We confirmed i now have drift sorted for the ships.

for the bullet fix, part one has them spawn as children of the ship . but set invisible and not collision systems yet.
Then like a torpedo set them on their way , and after a set time they become visible and they arm/ respond to collisions
oh and change the movement system to something simpler possibly force based .

i want to get this nailed so i can move onto  beam weapons and making some platforms and larger set bits in blender.

possibly a derelict hull or two.

hey nothing too cliche .. possibly . I may regret saying that .
but i fully intend to have many options to pollute space .

Awesome!  I can't wait to see what you come up with, Scott!

I don't know how you figure all of this stuff out, but it makes sense to me.

Also I legit got a medal today: real medal .. on my real chest.

Prime_8

 it's supposed to be 500/20   and it unstably does 300/3
so I cant reliably upload. I think its broken line someplace.

my upload bounces from 0 to 7 MiBps up .
