Does Ares have Moving Building Logic? - linglin - 25.07.2010
This logic from FireStorm,Cabal's Defender is a Building that can Deploy,Attack and move
RE: Does Ares have Moving Building Logic? - DCoder - 25.07.2010
Code:
; Core Defender (deployed)
[DDEFD]
Name=Core Defender
UndeploysInto=DEFENDERRE: Does Ares have Moving Building Logic? - Nighthawk - 25.07.2010
The undeployed Core Defender is functionally a VehicleType, it just has a selection box like a building.

Just small talk. if you made it so buildings actually could somehow move like tanks or infantry. wouldn't that cause massive lag and major graphical glitches when going up or down uneven land?
RE: Does Ares have Moving Building Logic? - WoRmINaToR - 29.08.2010
Not sure about massive lag, but graphics certainly would look funky for a moving building.
Thus, why buildings don't move (among myriad other reasons).

I wouldn't put it past C&C to have one... oh WAIT, I forgot. It does. Thank you, Tiberian Twilight!
RE: Does Ares have Moving Building Logic? - WoRmINaToR - 29.08.2010
Lol.
But logically it ceases in many ways to be a building; it undeploys, grows wheels, etc. All characteristics of a vehicle (but it can still build stuff, which is retarded).
However, I do agree with your point; Tiberian Twilight did just about everything to the CNC universe that a CNC game should never do.
RE: Does Ares have Moving Building Logic? - Beowulf - 30.08.2010
No, I disagree with that statement. The implementation of the ideas were poor, but the ideas themselves are not intrinsically bad. A fully mobile command fortress is a really cool idea, but Tiberian Twilight removed a few too many C&C staples like harvesting. That was the worst move for C&C4 to be honest.
Because, let's be honest, C&C needed a new direction. It's stale and everyone knows it. There's only so much GDI and Nod bullshit one can see before growing bored.
But anyway. Back to the topic at hand...
RE: Does Ares have Moving Building Logic? - WoRmINaToR - 31.08.2010
Agreed.
To the topic: in YR, buildings shouldn't move.
RE: Does Ares have Moving Building Logic? - Beowulf - 31.08.2010
In vanilla YR, yes. In a total conversion, why the hell not?
