I like the vehicle idea -- I really do. I can't imagine it being that
hard to implement, so I'll stick it in the design doc. As to the
period-limiting option, I think we could set up a few rules for which
weapons go with which maps (i.e. each weapon, each map, each object, has a
"period" that it fits in, and all the periods have to work together).
Hmm, that doesn't sound entirely clear. I'm afraid I'm braindead, after
thirteen-odd hours of debating at Model UN yesterday and Thursday. Once I
recover, I'll write a more understandable explanation. But yes, it's a
good idea. As to the multiple characters (groups), I forgot to put that
in the design document. We need to decide whether or not it's such a good
idea for our game. It would be nice, yes. If we decide to, then I'll put
it in.
Later,
Ben
