Land was created and the Art Of War was discovered

Greetings mates, we have some new intresting updates.

recently me and Ecko had some understanding troubleshooting :P I was trying several times to explain Ecko how will the map editor work - how will the tiles be placed on the screen (warcraft\starcraft style)... and he was trying to explain to me the order of placing tiles in our tile sheet - we both failed with our explanations.

[x] good news is, we found a solution to our little problem :P , we made a new tile sheet and a new tile placing functions - hahaha.

[x] muhahaha our scouts discovered the art of war and began spraying each other with hot lead :P awsome display of gun fire! :P


By Ariel_Yust

the display was quit fast, everyone were shooting on burst mode :P in the end there was nothing left from the blue team but shame.

[x] everything works great! we have tiles with there borders working, but modifications are in progress :)
as you can see we have some problems with the edges but we are working on it :) , we use high spice inspired from Dune2 and the rocks on the dirt can be use by infantry :P which aren't implimented yet into the game hehehe



[x] another intresting thing is the planing of the harvester... yes I dislike that stupid design of the harvester in the dune games!



they couldn't invent something better?! jeez I hate it! its big with wierd shape! berly moves and harvest spice :| and I don't think it would have been used in the future so I invented my own harvester design :P a very unique design muhahahahah!

my harvester is a walking harvester - has much more mobility then the normal dune harvester! it looks better! it has strong spot lights and any fictionary vision that you would like! and it walks into a field without ruining the spice! and collects the spice from its bottom part, most efficient!


By Ariel_Yust

My harvester will never sink in the sand! because Ecko won't progrem it to! :P

Well it looks slightly out of place to me in a modern warfare environment. But then again I don't know Dune very well and Dune does look somewhat steam punk.

Ariel Yust said:
hmmm I'm trying to have a hand pointer instead of the knife :) and the knife will be used when targeting enemys... for now... who kows maybe I will change that :S

btw... Me and Ecko desided that our game is not a dune remake... its more like a game inspired from the dune games :P

Updates have been slow lately. Ariel and I had fun with a racing car AI. Nevertheless, I expect to see harvesting scouts and flying scouts any time now.
