Hi all. I wanted to open up a discussion about a map idea I have. I have other projects to work on now, so feel free to take my idea or help me develop the idea for when I forge it later. The idea is to have planets orbiting around a star. The planets would be extremely small. Players would spawn on these planets and shoot rockets at the other players on other planets as they orbit around the star at different rates, to make a goofy game experience. To do this, I would create the planet some distance form the star, then place a 1x1x1 chroma an equal distance from the other side of the star. Then I would weld the two objects. That way, the center should be right at the star. If you're having trouble visualizing this, imagine two spheres connected by a rod. That rod has a pin run through it. If you were to move one of the spheres, the whole contraption would rotate about the center of the rod, where we pinned it. That pin is the star. One of the spheres is the planet, while the other is an almost invisible chroma. I would script to tell each planet + chroma pairing to rotate at a certain velocity. The planet should rotate about the star. I would additionally like to have the planets rotate on their own with moons, but I'm not sure this is possible. The way I would do it would be to create the moons and the planet as one weld group, then assign a rotation script. After that, I would weld with the 1x1x1 chroma and have the entire thing rotate about the star. Not sure that last part is possible, but perhaps you have a better idea to simulate moons and stuff. I would line the map with black chromas to simulate space. ----- An important thing I learned in constantly-moving maps is that it is easier to script the objects so that they move when they receive a signal, and to have another object send this signal every x seconds. This way, you can initiate mass movement at one time and then save the map immediately. Otherwise, you may have to juggle many moving pieces at once and complicate everything! Let me know what you guys think or come up with!
