What do you NOT want spring to get?

Metamorph and stuff is fine, and so are upgrades, but to me, I need it to just unjam weapons and move parts

I don't like the rest of types of upgrades, to me, a unit should earn its stuff...

By getting veteran level

This si a very abd thread.

The point of feature sis that they're optional.

Just ebcause something is implemented or added doesnt means it added toe veyr mdo instantly. Features have to be turned on to be used, and its the modders decision.

So we could add any horrible feature to spring, but we wouldnt see it untill a modder started using it

Snipawolf · Post by **Snipawolf** » 19 Jul 2006, 21:09

yeah, but i don't like the idea of spring with upgrades...

Anyway yeah I guess your right...

AF · Post by AF » 19 Jul 2006, 21:14

Yeah but if spring had an upgrade system implemented there wouldnt be any mods using them that exist so users wont see any difference.

Bingo :)
Most of the features should be mod controlled anyway.

All of them should be imo.

Snipawolf · Post by **Snipawolf** » 19 Jul 2006, 23:27

Yeah, mod controlled would be nice, now as long as I can convince a lot of modders not to use too many upgrades

I don't know why, but on games with upgrades I porc a lot more

You should try vacuum cleaning your keyboard or something.

I have no idea what this thread is about.

Non optional features, bugs, myg0t's. That's pretty much it.

Snipawolf · Post by **Snipawolf** » 20 Jul 2006, 05:57

yeah, that tops it off, we can let it die now

I don't want sprite based graphics and starcraft stratage's.

Sprite based graphics are useful for particle effects and other things like unit icons when zoomed out too far to recognize the units. Starcraft strategies? WTH are those? All RTS use the same strats, they just implement them in different ways

Zoombie · Post by **Zoombie** » 20 Jul 2006, 06:05

No I mean the whole aspect of you can only win if you click the fastest. You know...Star craft strategies. Or should I say Speedmetal strategies :)

Oh and I forgot about the partical effect's via sprites. Good points there. remove the sprite based graphics from my "non-want' list.

j5mello · Post by **j5mello** » 20 Jul 2006, 06:14

or rework it to say "sprite based graphics for units/buildings"

Zoombie · Post by **Zoombie** » 20 Jul 2006, 06:14

Yeah. Those things.
