right now i have a problem with the Plasma Bugs Fire-Anim. Maybe you can help me.
As you may know the Plasma Bug fired with his back. he blowed up and then fire the plasma ball from his behind (quite disgusting :biggrin: )
Ok, my problem is.
Should i make in the fireanim a turn-anim too? because it has to turn for 180° to fire, it could look quite stupid, if it just flips around.
But if i add a turn-anim, the whole anim could last to long, so every target can simply escape before this thing fires.

Make it some kinda turret. That is, if deployed. Hold on a sec', maybe not. "Neutral" AI is far too dumb to do that, lest you make your own AI for them. Or if all else fails, you might try making as little frames as possible. Is this bug a "vehicle" or "infantry"?

Also, give the Plasma Bug's fire-animation some massive damage value. You said the Plasma Bug explodes upon firing, no? Let its own firing anim kill itself. ^_^

Oh, and by the way, nice job with the SHPs, LKO.

To Corsair:
I don't like "White" Terrans, though. I always thought it nice if they were to wear blue. By the way, is that the UED? They sound more of corrupt than sane - making use of the Overmind.

I always set white as the computer AI, and the rest of the players the other colors on my maps. So no, my map isn't the UED, but yes, the UED were just a bar below insane

The United Earth Directorate makes me want to play Starcraft :biggrin:; yeah they were quite insane, but they almost were successfull ; would be cool to have 2 different terran armies for the next starcraft.

@LKO:
I know that jumpjet logic is flawed, since it uses the firing frames at ground, and the standing frames when flying, and sometimes it messes up other sequences; but you could still use it, if you make the bug fly at ground level; I mean using the same sequences for the ground and flying state; in this way, the game won't mess up by alternating the ground and flying anims, since the are the same; this even reduces your work, since you shouldn't have to animate too much frames

BTW great work so far :biggrin:
