Gravity, Acceleration and Projectile Physics!

by Justin DuJardin · in Torque Game Builder · 04/03/2005 (11:32 am) · 11 replies

For the sake of not repeating too much of what I've just rambled about, I'll leave you all with a screen shot and a link to my plan which discusses in further detail what I've been up to. Just got T2D the other day and I must say I love it!

I've been working on recreating ScorchedEarth with a new twist, thus far I have the projectile motion done (except for the wind resistance which i'm doing today) and plan on working on the terrain deforming after I create a decent fxTerrainObject class.

Don't forget to check out My .Plan and leave me any feedback, concerns, suggestions, comments :)

Did you try .setConstantForce for gravity before your hack?

BTW - looks cool. I'm interested in how you plan on implimenting terrain deformation. =)

Phillip, of course not! That would require I actually take a good look at the engine before i start changing things! :)

Yes! The terrain deformation will be interesting. I've got my eye on this one.

Just an update, I did get my terrain deformation code working, you can check it out in my newest .PLAN

Nice job, man. Nice job indeed. :) Now where's our demo to screw around with? :-p

Any plans to create a resource on your engine changes? I'd definitely be intrested in knowing more about how you did this :)

Is anyone else thinking a Worms clone? Or was that just me? =)

Awesome man.

Justin is coming out for an internship this summer, so you guys know, and hopefully he'll be helping us with T2D. :)
