freeone3000 Report post Posted July 11, 2007 For those who like to have the perspective on, clicking near the horizon will not allow movement due to the limitations on walking. A simple fix would be to route all walking through the pathfinder, which would not cause considerable processor use increase and would allow for click-walking much longer distances due to perspective than available. Would this be an acceptable change? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Krystal V Report post Posted July 11, 2007 then everyone would change there view so they could walk like everyone else. not a problem but wat if somone liked the normal view better? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ttlanhil Report post Posted July 11, 2007 One thing on this... If every walk-click went through the client pathfinder, we may be able to take more load off the server's pathfinder by having the client send shorter walks (the greater the distance, the more calculations needed, and all that) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scorpius Report post Posted July 11, 2007 (edited) then everyone would change there view so they could walk like everyone else. not a problem but wat if somone liked the normal view better? its not about changing the default view. its about that IF you use a view that allows you to look further into the envoirement it would be nice to also be able to move at the, lets say, furthest point of your view. #EDIT: ebul typo devil <.< Edited July 11, 2007 by Scorpius Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freeone3000 Report post Posted July 11, 2007 map-walking calculations are done client-side. Currently, moves of only 10-ish (less?) tiles can be sent to the server. Thing is, when you click to walk, it tries to do it anyway, and lo and behold... nothing happens. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
draegox Report post Posted July 11, 2007 I love this idea. I have frequently been annoyed by not being able to walk where I click, and I dearly hope the solution is implemented. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
