ok im back after a long weekend, apparently we are doing deadlines now, but I don't really have anything to work on, so…
im just going to wait until the game releases and if anyone needs me to test some features to see if it's halo-y I can do it.

also i almost forgot about the melee component in the game, how will we do that.
(meleeing boosts you forward when an opponent is at least 2 feet in front of you)

We might be able to do that. If not, we can have it be more like CE, with no boost.

that boost mechanic shouldnt be too hard - we can do pythag to get distance and snap to the player if its in range… clashing melees would maybe cause some problems though

we'd need to code a whole bunch of collision and physics scripts.

when I receive [melee receive v]
if <(meleeattack)=(1)> then 
bounce off
else
take melee damage
end

when [q v] key pressed
if <(opponentrange)= (2)> then
set [meleeattack v] to [1]
glide (.50) secs to x: (enemy-x) y: (enemy-y)
switch costume to (melee v)
glide (1) secs to x: ((enemy-x) - (2)) y: ((enemy-y) - (0))
else
switch costume to (melee v)
end

so I think the gliding part of that would be not very natural looking, I think we need to add the actual vectors into the platformer engine for that.

in halo infinite, the lunge distance is 4 meters, which is pretty far. i think we need to reduce that. but it depends on the map size

I mean, we don’t measure distance based on meters, rather we have “x” points. For reference, the Forge project “X Cam”

That seems like an easier idea, I vote yes. But how do we measure player distance ITSELF?
Do you just measure x points between the two sprites?

(distance to [ v])

So i think that once someone starts doing something, me, Crush, Vik, or Toss can give them a deadline. If it isn't done by the time of the deadline, whoever was working on it should share what they did with comments in the code explaining what does what. After that they can keep working on it, but they can also let someone else work on it if they're fine with it.

My two cents.

sounds good to me.

Ye It sounds like a nice idea

So everyone to work.

what happened to the jackal that i was working on?

You tell me.
