Question Thomas

Hey Thomas, do you have a way I can get a hold of you in private? I am going to try to design a new combat system and I was wondering if you can lend some help if I get stuck.

Well, messages sent through the forum profile will get to me over mail.

But I think it's better to use the forum. Here are some reasons why:

• public questions are seen by others, who might help in ways I can't (or have time for).
• the forum is asynchronous - you may post when I have no time to answer, I (and others) can answer when we find the time.
• it keeps the forum relevant.
• code is better formatted on the forum than in a mail.
• I code for a living. Sometimes I need to not think about code to preserve my sanity. That's harder when it's sent to my mailbox.

On a general basis I check the forums about once per day, if I have internet and time available. You're going to have to live with about that amount of interaction.

That was a great post. I design wireless and large scale Cisco networks. Last thing I like to do is come home and do it more LOL.

Coding keeps my sanity.

Agree - I work with Windows Servers and Helpdesk issues all day.
Coding is a fun hobby for me

So Liko, whats the plan for your combat system?

I am wanting to do a skill based combat system. My buddy Trenton wants me to redo his old combat system from DB: FE.

It would go something like this:

* Liko begins a low motion sweep..(From here you'd have up to 3 seconds to type parry low). Now if you time it just right, the attack would be blocked. Miss it and you take damage.

How would you prevent client side triggers from handling the parry correct every time?
