Wow! Looks cool!

And the Trick Master walks again.

Nice.

That’s really cool.
*Imagines gladiators throwing nets over each other* Yeah... that could be cool...

Just a question, how many tricks have you discovered?

Oh, about the water trees, there is also a forest tree on water, not only jungle.

A question better left unasked. I don't know how many hits he scored, and I was there when he started his discovery spree.

I guess they are almost too many to count. And hopefully there is yet more to come.

When you got it ,,you got it.
I don't got it .

Fascinating, I cannot wait to see that in a scenario. Which brings us to the next issue, Philip: When can we expect a first peek at your scenario?

Yes a recuring question if I do say so, .

It wont be much longer for anyone interested heres my to do list:

1) Finish little bits of Candy on the maps.
2) Add in a particular interesting fight scene.
3) "Need more sound effects"
4) Get playtesters+ Squeese playtesters for every little drop of info.
5) Submit finished product to blacksmith.
6) Repeat steps 1,2,3.

I think this may have been the first time I have seen Ingo not end his message with "Ingo".

Really? I don't usually end one- or two liners with my name... takes up twice or three times more lines than my whole message.

Erm ): True enough Allways exceptions I suppose.

Nothing wrong with ending with ones name.

"Philip"

W00tness! Could you pick me as one? I'd really like to view your scenario, and examine the triggers check for bugs!

Philip:

About FLDOG...is there a way to make the unit still?

Also it seems the FLDOG food supply has a timed life...did you find this in your research?

Yes I did find those things in my research. The way to control the FLDOG so you can kill it and start the timer is by using a combination of triggers.

Just one trigger did not seem to work, the unit is almost impossible to hit with conventional unit fire so I used a kill object.

I also used a looping task trigger with no location set for the unit to go, a freeze unit trigger and another tasking trigger with location this time and a stop unit trigger.

The unit still moved 1 square back and forth but tinkering with the area I got it to stand still until I wanted it dead.

You can find the exact rot rate of the FLDOG and make it a time sensitive mission if you like. You could also map copy more dogs for a longer time period.

If you did not like the FLDOG you could use a conventional boar or other animal with alot of food and put some gaia object to cover it up.

Use a fairly wide set area radius for the triggers.

I do not see why you can't be a playtester when the time comes just remember to be nice to the scenarios.

Nice trick! I know I never would have thought of it. Maybe I should just wait for you to come up with a billion more tricks before I complete a scenario. Maybe that FLDOG has even more secrets... It's a pretty strange unit.

Yes Philip!

I could not get it to stay in one place long enough. Your trigger description is exactly what I was looking for. However, I am more excited by your second suggestion, as that will also do the trick very nicely.

Thanks!

Damn you Philip.That's a great trick.

*you just don't know when to stop,do you?*
