Originally on dev black_prince, but yeah.

The server is now back up again thanks to Stefan

I think you should take a look at the Graal Statistics site o.o

It looks nice.

A gender setting might be good though. Eventually. ;-D

Also, lemme know if you guys stick to Turn-based...I'm interested to see how that'll work out online, if it'll be Largely Turn-Based with a default "impatience" timer when the other player's taking too long, and if they lose their turn or if you have an AI take over their turn when they default...or if you'll allow players to Turn-based at their own pace.

With DeveloperXY I meant Developer(SUMRANDOMNUMBERHEREPL0X)

Developer## would of been more fitting in that case though.

Indeed, considering there's someone with the account DeveloperXY.

Pelikano · #7 12-30-2008, 01:24 PM

I didn't know that

I missed crystia in wired's vaporware list.

Any proof against the thesis, that crystia is just vaporware?

Chompy · #9 01-01-2009, 05:03 AM

Player VS Player is probably next to do on my list of what to do :o

DustyPorViva · #10 01-01-2009, 05:13 AM

Hmm, is that what you needed the pathfinding help for?

Kinda

I couldn't use the pure concept of the A* method though, so I had to modify it a bit :]

Codein · #12 01-01-2009, 02:36 PM

Wow, that's nice

Rufus · #13 01-01-2009, 05:02 PM

I don't know if it's just because it's Jan 1st, but the transition between selecting a place to move and the screen going back onto your character really started to mess with my eyes. You might want to try and improve that transition somehow and maybe reduce the opacity of the grid, but other than that it looks cute.

Yeah, the change of focus happens quite sudden. I'll fix a transition and do something about the opaque :]

I also suggest making the grid more checkerboard rather than a solid color, it looks better aesthetically.

Hmm, that should be a easy fix, making odd numbers one color and the others a different one

Tyhm · #17 01-01-2009, 07:57 PM

Defend/Counterattack/Ready Attack is always fun...particularly when you can represent it graphically. "You can walk right past this guy, but he's gonna interrupt you with a sword on step #5..."

DustyPorViva · #18 01-01-2009, 07:58 PM

Maybe have the opacity of each space lower the farther the distance?

Chompy · #19 01-01-2009, 11:04 PM

:] Kinda hard to see the opacity though, but yeah, it's there

Rufus · #20 01-01-2009, 11:05 PM

Much much better

DustyPorViva · #21 01-01-2009, 11:40 PM

Screenshot?

Should up the jump in transparency to something like...

1-((x/y)*.75)

x being the the respective distance number, and y being the max distance possible.

Just a little opinion here. Looks good but I think it might look better without numbers in every square. Why not just show the squares and have one number represented somewhere that shows how many steps it will take?

Could probably be done. Crystia is kinda on a hold of now, so I do stuff in my sparetime on there (Mainly working on the tactics engine).

I'll see if I can do something about that though (and the numbers are mostly for debugging). How the path finder works, is that it will it use that number you choose as how many steps it will max take. If you choose a square with number 8, it will find a path with max 8 steps. The path finder is quite flexible, because at the moment it only moves in 4 directions, but it could easily be done to make it work in 8 directions (Thus creating even shorter and faster paths..).

Rufus · #27 01-02-2009, 03:09 AM

I like the last screenshot the best, but that'd probably be because it includes everything I suggested

zibou · #28 01-27-2009, 03:49 PM

I heard Crystia died because some staffs were leaving :O !

You heard? Well, you should get the stuff you hear confirmed first.

Crystia is put on hold: Lack of staff.

(Not directly aimed at you though)

Crystia is put on hold until we can get some plans done in terms of hirings and such. But unfortunate, all Crystia hirings threads have a tendence to evolve into a sea of flame posts coming from both parts.

Things are looking slim right now, but who knows what the future might bring?

Angelu · #32 01-27-2009, 05:30 PM

At the moment i dont have time for Graal :O

i hope i can go on soon with Crystia

Nobody knows if it will be made on Graal or not, but Elk is definitely working on it.
