hello. first time im posting in this forum :)

I was wondering if the actions on an alternate account affect another account. For instance, if I make an alternate account, and submit flash, will it affect my 'mayoarm11' account in any way. And, just b/c i'm curious to know how it works, if I get banned, is it an IP ban, meaning I can't log on mayoarm11, or is just an account ban. I'm guessint IP ban, but just wanna know. I'm not planning to get banned, or spam the portal, I've just always wanted to know how it works on NG.

thnx in advance.

the snow pile can be used as an obstacle, slow rate of fire

any good?

no it's weird :(

obstacle turret:
The gravitational bomb launcher launches a max of 5 "bombs", that spin around the turret (hence the gravitational part of the name). So the gravitation bomb launcher is basically the same, just cooler.

guitar turret:

it has a guitar as the top turret but and it rotates where it is shooting and its shoots little picks out! good eh? hopefully, if it doesnt fit the theme, you can always make in an unlockable

you could have little string sounds when the pick hits the enemy?

it's not very unique. It's not unique at all >.>. Sounds like a regular bullet turret, just with picks as bullets.

MASSIVE MODE:
upgrade the guitar to put on rock mode that instead of hurting or killing the enemies it makes them play a guitar and rock for a bit defening nearby enemies slowing them down and hurting them, the guitar player then dies

thanks

hope this is a good one!

lmfao. That's just a weird-ass snow turret.

support turret:
its really weak to start with, when theres only one but build one within a certain range and they both become stronger, the connection is shown by a electrical beam from one to another, you can make a massive grid of them and they have uber power, the attack projetile could be anyting, maybe electrical bolts or somthing its the group power thats important!

funky

haha. dude this is hilarious. You just described my pos/neg magnetic turrets. When a pos magnetic turret is placed next to a neg turret, they form what you described, an electric bolt between them, that shoots little electric stuff at the enemies. And when two of the same kind are placed next to each other (pos&pos or neg&neg) they bombard the area between them. :D

thats the kind of originality im looking for. Too bad it's already taken :)

I didn't look at your turrets yet, but I see you just used reload-range-damage combos, which are very unoriginal. Ima look at them anyways to see if they give me ideas.

Limitless Turret - Neverending Rapid fire.
Fire Rate: N/A (Doesn't end until out of range)
Range: Medium
Damage: Extremely Low
Splash: None
Cost: Low

k ummm... nothing special. Already have like 5 turrets like this.

Mine Launcher: Launches a highly explosive mine.
Fire Rate: Low
Range: Medium
Damage: High
Splash: Medium
Cost: Medium

Already have the mine deployer turret.

Rapid Mine Launcher: Quickly Launches an explosive mine.
Fire Rate: Medium
Range: Medium
Damage: Medium
Splash: Low
Cost: Medium

what? the difference is the rate the mine is deployed?

Flame Bunker - Sets enemies on Fire at short range.
Fire Rate: N/A (Doesn't end until out of range)
Range: Short
Damage: High
Splash: Low
Cost: High

Already have the flame turret, and the flamethrower :)

Heavy Flame Bunker - Set enemies on Fire with Plasma at Medium Range.
Fire Rate: N/A (Doesn't end until out of range)
Range: Medium
Damage: Very High
Splash: Low
Cost: Very High

plasma? Wut difference does the plasma make? looks like it just adds damage. So it's like my frame turret, which does less damage, Than I have the flamethrower turret, which does like twice the damage.

If you need more, just tell meh. :D I have LOTS more.

ok. But uhh.... I need something very original. I have 70 turrets now, and if you wanna contribute more, you're gonna have to be very original. No range-damage-reload combinations. Something that has some kind of another effect to it, or smoething that makes it unique.

At 8/3/08 02:20 PM, funkycaveman wrote: oh ok its gonna be a big game can you tell us what its called or breif explaination

it has no name at the moment. Explanation? a damn ass fine turret game. You make turrets, try to protect your base. There are types of enemies, with different speed variables, health, damage, etc. You make money by killing enemies, and spend it on turrets. There will also be different modes. Survival mode (normal mode), capture the flag mode (enemies try to get your flag, and return it to their spaceship), and maybe other stuff i'll think of.

It'll be a pretty cool game, but it's just an engine really. Preparing me for the next release, which will also include making your own units.

around 70 I guess. I think at the end of everything, I'll have 80.

At 8/3/08 12:28 PM, ssjskipp wrote: Elaboration on the 'Swarm Missiles':
I just used that as a range -- Iduno how balanced you want it to be. Not random, but you'd set it so it fires off 20 missiles, once 1 enemy is in range (not all at once, but like every 0.2 second interval, until out of ammo), then once out of ammo, reloads back to 20, repeat.

oh ok. yeh i definetely like this idea.

The Peace Keeper is just a carrier that when fired up, breaks off into 10 MIRVs (Multiple independently targetable reentry vehicle), which means one missile goes up, breaks into 10, and EACH of those 10 itself is 20x the bomb the US dropped on Hiroshima. Yeah. Just saying you can get weapon ideas from real weapons.

ok obviously, im not gonna make it a superweapon. But uhh missile that breaks off into others. mmm. I thought of having a cluster bomb, which is basically the same thing. Idk, i'll consider it.

Here's what a Prism Tower did in Red Alert 2:
When 1 tower fired, it would shoot a laser to the target.
When there is another tower within range, it'd bounce the laser between the tower, and the resulting laser would do significantly more damage to the target. Basically, it uses power from other Prism Turrets to make it's laser much more powerful.
This effect is daisy chained.

dude I know what a prism tower does -_-
I designed a turret out of it so >.>
I mean, graphic-wise, it doesn't look like RA2's prism tower. But the way it attacks is just the same, it's awesome. My fav turret. I said that like 10 times, but idc. The prism tower does 15 damage, and there's an advanced prism tower, which does uhhh... either 20, 22.5, or 25. I don't remember, and am too lazy to check. But it's looks sweetsorz.

That's all, thanks =)

no. it's 0<=x<10

but I don't see why your function is void. Instead of tracing your w/e u wanna trace, why not return the value.

Unless you just made that so you can see if it works or something.

well the nanobots idea is definetely interesting and fitting to my game theme, but I can't picture this, and besides, I already have the poison turret that does damage over time. Not that I couldn't use another thing like this, but I need a different idea that does this.

genius. And the enemies have a %50 change of watching the submissions, which makes them not move for about 5 seconds, then they have a %50 change of commiting suicide from watching the submission. Awesome.

At 8/3/08 02:09 AM, ssjskipp wrote: More ideas:
Portal Turret
Creates a temporary portal from wherever to wherever. Has very high cooldown (perhaps once per wave?), but could be used as a 'saving grace' for bad leeks.

it's definetely interesting. I'll see what I can do.

Link Turret
Gains power from other nearby link turrets (of any level, if there's advanced). Essentially, the more link turrets you have close to each other (chains, etc), the more damage each link turret does - they gain power from each other -- kinda' like the Prism Tower from Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2

gain power? just by standing next to each other? they gain power from each other AND from units? You're gonna have to elaborate on how they gain power, and what their attack is like.

Chrono Turret
Control the passage of time. Can be upgraded in two ways -- 1. Slow enemies within range, or 2. speed up turrets within range. Obvious useage:
Slow enemies near fast turrets with short range or
Speed up turrets with long range and high cooldown. Pretty strategic.

"upgraded in two ways"? It's a very interesting idea. I may use it, except for the upgraded in two ways part. If I use it, it will just do both simultaneously, but its powers will be relatively quick.

Just some cooler style missile firing:
Missile Swarm Turret
Has a fairly long cooldown, but fires in bursts of 5 - 20 missiles at enemies, each missile choses a random target within range + seeks in.

ok random number of missile isn't a good idea, but the other part is very cool. An explansion of the guided missile launcher. I was thinking relatively ok reload, but the missile don't do that much damage.

Peace Keeper
Same idea as the actual Peace Keeper missile. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LGM-118A_Pe acekeeper

looks like a regular missile to me. Or am I not seeing something

Enjoy.
thank you very much, sir. Very nice ideas.

1) there is no road in my game
2) any turret, no matter what damage it has, that has a 1-tile range, sux xD
cuz my game's terrain is very big... so...

I typed in some code to fix it up, hit play, and BLAM. My framerate goes from running smoothly previously, to being insanely choppy and laggy.

so with that problem, is there a limit to how many mc's you could have on the main stage or does your framerate just gradually decrease as you add more?

ofcourse there is no limit. But you probably bombarded your MC's with filters. Set your filters to low.

no it's not. Give us a visual aid

Draw your shape, and then highlight the part you want to hitTest. Perhaps hittest is not nessecary and simple math is sufficient.

yep. Or if the are you want to hitTest is a simply geometrical shape, then you can use simple math.

i never heard of such a thing. cant you ask your teacher for a copy
