I was just wondering how the FPS engine works and how you are able to mod it. And can you currently play multiplayer games with? |

Third person perspective that is not absolutely right. First, you can't play multiplayer with the released demo. Oh wait... you can't play BATTLE.NET. Maybe the dev team can answer about LAN games. The reason is because if you run a 3rd party program on battle.net, it boots u off. Hacking prevention measure. How it works? This could take some time... hmmm... - Control Program: This basically sees if you are pressing any particular key (i have no idea, maybe it's some dll thing, but I'm crapping). It then feeds info to the map by changing variables thus making movement. Moving the mouse changes the Z offset and facing angle, but I haven't been playing with it so I don't know if it's from a variable. - Basically the rest is triggers. Firing is a JASS Trigger that runs when you press the leftmouse button thus activating a variable change. Movement is a trigger that runs when you press buttons on your keyboard. Lookin around is something that runs when you move your mouse. Clipping errors is something that runs when you go anywhere cause it just happens. Bah. |
