by Rigo Cisneros · in RTS Starter Kit · 12/14/2006 (6:12 pm) · 12 replies
Heyaz,
well i have been coding with the RTS starter kit for about 6 months on our current game project which we hope to release the 0.1 version very soon.
but I know everyone seems to want more added to the starter kit.
Heres a basic list of what I see is needed some of which I have done already:
Resources already done
[X] TGE 1.5 - see the DIY guide that was posted here :)
[X] better Cameras - see advanced Camera Resource
[X] Mysql/ db support - already a resource
Things Needed
A* Pathinding - we will release a version not using raycasting.
So What do you want else would be wanted in an content pack??
Our company plans on releasing an specialized RTS kit :)

Unfortuneately I don't have access to a Mac atm...its a possibility in the future.
email me your console.txt and I'll see if I can make sense of it...also if you know where it crashed in the code..that would be helpful too.

I have the RTS but I have not look at much. What about the AI? I would like see something you can expand on.

I am including a basic AI at least for Battling. - Units auto attack you when you are near, also this can be expanded greatly using script. Things I may include in the next release might be - Run, Heal, Intelligent Targeting. Then for later version - Formations, resource tactics....etc. Any Ideas of what exactly you would like?

Wow that sound outstanding. A basic AI that setup a Town center and start building there force. When they reach certain amount resources and forces they hunt you down and attack. Thanks for doing this.

I'm just starting to put in all the resources I've found here on the forums, actually starting this on January 3rd or 4th. I'll be releasing everything put together here on the forums, but I'm willing to lend a hand if I get the time. I've been wanting to do this for some time now, just due to the lack of attention (no offence anyone at GG) the RTS pack seems to get.
I'll release all the source code here when I'm all done. I'm assuming everything will probably take a month or two, but I will release it here.
