Leeloo Report post Posted December 12, 2004 Once Cal3d gets implemented (that's still the plan I believe?), make a dance animation, that runs client-side, and only has a start_dance and stop_dance server commands. Right now, people use sit-stand-sit-stand-sit-stand... as "dancing", which causes lag and resyncs. To make it really advanced, how about a two-person dance - of course the two persons would have to be right next to eachother, and when they go around eachother, it should only be visual. The two occupied tiles should not change on the server, the animation just needs to end with both people in the original positions. The first one should be simple to do, the second might not be.

But I don't dance like that turn to the left for 2 and then turn to the right for 2 and so on then break it so you turn for 8 and you are facing the other way around and then start the sequence again, well good :lol: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freeone3000 Report post Posted December 13, 2004 This will add the "people sticking through other people" problem in addition to "people sticking through objects" and "people sticking through animals". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elise Report post Posted December 13, 2004 Freeone I thought that was a fun feature, not a problem. People seem to have fun with it anyway. Dancing while through other people/animal/buildings might be even more fun! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What triggered this suggestion was actually a complaint about BeyoncE dancing, causing lag for everyone. This will add the "people sticking through other people" problem in addition to "people sticking through objects" and "people sticking through animals". This happens in real life too, except it's more like "bumping into" rather than "sticking through". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
