Category: Game Engine: General Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Lincoln Peters (lmpeters) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: New terrain subtype: offset connection Initial Comment: An offset connection is basically a cross between a border and a connection. It can impede movement like a border, and it can make movement easier like a connection. The basic idea is that the connection runs through a cell, but stays close to the edge (let's say it's about halfway between the center of the cell and the edge). A unit that can travel along it (as per mp-to-traverse) is assumed to be on it, while any other unit is assumed to be at the center of the cell. Thus, it may impede movement in a given direction for some units (like a border) and enhance movement for others (like a connection). The application I have in mind for offset connections is rivers in a low-level tactical game. By using an offset connection, land units can require extra effort to cross a river (if they can cross it at all), while naval units can use it to travel inland. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=698375&aid=1517818&group_id=124062 |
