Yeah, that was a single player four axes version of it to try to keep one occupied until others joined.
I favoured the "watch how the zones move here" approach to single player timewasting.

Re: An idea that I have nod ieda how to exicute.

Did you ever play Chico's Ballpit Survival? Basically there are 2 seperate circular arena's on the grid, 1 for each team. In each arena moving green zones are spawned. if you enter a green zone you will get 2 points and spawn your team another 2 green zones and in your opponents arena you will spawn...

I would vote no.
But it ought to be decided soon as it will have an effect on who can/cannot play so teams can be formed.

Re: Scary 80's Hair!

When I was a kid they made a tv program using some kids from our school, I was one of those kids. We got to ride on an open top bus, "Charlie's Bus". Anyone remember that show? Anyway, who were the special guests on the bus that week? None other than The Flock of Seagulls :D We got to play...

Re: Armagetron Hall Of Fame

I've got it working. For those who haven't/can't it is basically a 3d world with a simple map created by word you can walk around, much in the same way as a first person shooter, but with no guns. It was worth it to see the guy in the Z-Man suit :) This world will (I assume) eventually be populated ...

Re: Ladle 21 (Voting Over) Official Settings on pg. 2

outputting SVG files and rendering them to a website. That doesn't work because it increases lag. I was thinking about that and I don't believe it's been fully explored. What does cause the lag? Here's a snapshot of the unfinished live mode for flower sumo. That webpage was running on the same serv...

Re: Snake add on to the game

I've put a server up with no additional hacking necessary. It seems there's a rubber zone in sty+ct ( hi hoop :) ) that will drain your rubber reserves whilst you're inside it or replenish it depending upon the value used. I first tried CYCLE_RUBBER_TIME 0 but this just stops you from using any rubb...

Re: Snake add on to the game

What about reverse logic? If you don't eat anything your tail gets shorter... Too short and you die. Extra points for core dumping? Could make for an interesting game. But you still have the same problem as me - currently everyone on the grid has the same length tail. Except when using CYCLE_RUBBER...

Re: Sty+ct Linux Dedicated Server Not Working

It looks ok. It doesn't seem to be linking to the tron.class.php file though. Try using the full path.. change: include("tron.class.php"); to: require_once("/home/thomas/mapscript/tron.class.php"); I recommend require_once() because it will halt the script if it can't find the fi...

Re: Snake add on to the game

With sty+ct branch using target zones and a simple script would allow you to make a simple one player snake game. It has been on my todo list for quite some time. Trouble is with multiplayer snake one of the best features (for me) is different players with different tail lengths. ie player_1 gobbles...

Re: Sty+ct Linux Dedicated Server Not Working

is the file "tron.class.php" in the same dir as this script? if so, you may need to paste the contents of this too.

Re: Amazing zone settings

Is it possible for a server to suggest to the client which of the amazing zone settings it might want to use for that particular server if the client supports it?

Have you guessed what's coming next....on a per zone basis? ok, forget that one, maybe zones v2 one day.
