Here is my plan for Wrectified in greater detail.

Blender Version - UPBGE + BP Player

  • Splash 1 (Unknown Forces)
  • Splash 2 (Made with Blender)
  • Splash 3 (Blender Game engine)
  • Splash 4 +Transition to (Main Menu)

Start New Game
Load Game
Options
End Game

  • Start New Game
  1. Randomly generate huge terrain using seed (one seed we all choose*)
  2. Randomly generate roads using a seed
  3. Randomly assign lots for buildings
  4. Randomly place foliage using a seed/random
  5. We place building generator instances in lots by hand
  6. After generating the world, we edit it and pickle a change list. this list is then applied to client copies after the world is generated. (puzzles/ gates / game items / enemies and story)

Terrain = 10ux10u tiles made of 10X10 vertex - Splat Mapped
Roads = a small kit is used to generate roads made of instances of geometry and a texture atlas
Buildings = Exterior kit + interior kit made of instances of geometry and a texture atlas
Foliage = Using stuff found on forums that is Creative Commons

Enemies = Made from modular robotics pieces
Vehicles = Made from modular robotics pieces
Puzzles = Made from modular robotics pieces

Characters = Stylized / Semi Chibi / physics armatures actors with control proxie

Weapons = usable by vehicles, players, and enemy units - Small / Medium /Large
-Weapon code is totally self contained in weapon and in projectiles.

So Far

  • I have systems to assemble friendly and hostile units
  • I have a level editor
  • I am making a terrain editor
  • I have a random dungeon interior generator
  • I have control logic for enemy units and friendly units and robotics and vehicles
  • I have a really nice inventory system that is per player
  • I have Physics LOD and Lamp LOD system that can also be used to identify objects to be loaded in and out
  • I have a rough story and ideas for characters.
  • I have a system for mouse and keyboard and joystick control proxies
  • I have a system to handle camera actions
  • I have the control logic for 20 or so weapons
  • Some of these tests are working files and some are in ‘Meat space’ aka my brain derived from insights from previous tests.
