Magic Casting System

emortylone · #1 08-13-2002, 11:08 PM

I've just finished a system for casting magic.
It is based on a balance enviroment.
When you cast the spell you will see a bar next to the spell.
You have to keep it balanced, if it goes to far up or down, the spell will cast.
In order to get more balance, you will have to stand on stuff like poles(like in karate movies), and while your on the pole you will have 2 bars, you have to keep both in the middle also.
Well here is the beta, please point out anything i should fix or add.
Please also tell me what you think and if its good to put on a server.

Its really hard to control

i noticed my first post is kind unorganized.

Ok lets rephrase it:

You can gain more balance points to make it easier to control by
doing training stunts like balancing on poles or walking across logs.

When doing those stunts, the longer you balance the more points you get.
The more balance points the easier it is to control the magic.

PS-- dont worry, i will change the explosion thing, thats temporary.

(Kadar):
Very original Idea..

The only thing i think you should add is that the light should only be able to goto x and y 0-64..

My light always gets lost because it goes past the level boundaries..
