您可能已經(jīng)注意到過去幾周 Youtube 和 Twitter 頻道沒有更新。不幸的是，我已經(jīng)陷入了其他一些業(yè)務(wù)，并且沒有太多可以炫耀的東西，而不僅僅是重新散列現(xiàn)有內(nèi)容。我在一些新結(jié)構(gòu)方面取得了一些穩(wěn)步進(jìn)展，盡管沒有什么值得視頻演示的。我也意識到我將不得不對現(xiàn)有結(jié)構(gòu)進(jìn)行另一次檢查，以使它們符合新的管道系統(tǒng)。


首先，民意調(diào)查：

雖然我已經(jīng)談到了游戲中存在的三個派系，但其中一個派系目前只有極少數(shù)單位在游戲中實際發(fā)揮作用。你可能會認(rèn)出其中的一些。

由于這個派系——目前被稱為 NWO，或 Collective，直到我想出一個更具體的名字——目前幾乎沒有任何內(nèi)容，我認(rèn)為向他們添加額外的工作單位以平衡游戲的名冊是合適的，特別是因為人們繼續(xù)問這個第三派。雖然我稍后會有更具體的描述，但這個派系的要點(diǎn)是他們在技術(shù)上比其他兩個派系更先進(jìn)，依靠精湛的技術(shù)和精銳的戰(zhàn)斗力，以犧牲數(shù)量為代價，他們的單位通常交換裝甲并保持火力。

到目前為止，由于這個派系的玩法，我也沒有為他們建造任何基地建筑；這個派系的結(jié)構(gòu)不是純粹的靜態(tài)建筑，而是半移動的，能夠在地圖上走動并重新部署（想想星際爭霸中的人族結(jié)構(gòu)，除了他們走而不是飛）。

因此，對于社區(qū)民意調(diào)查和你們希望看到的內(nèi)容，你們可以決定是否希望看到更多的車輛或更多的步兵單位。?

現(xiàn)在關(guān)于一般狀態(tài)更新：

您可能還記得上次更新中的傳送帶——這些管道的工作原理類似，將燃料資源從一個結(jié)構(gòu)轉(zhuǎn)移到另一個結(jié)構(gòu)。雖然此邏輯尚未完全實現(xiàn)，但此屏幕截圖應(yīng)該讓您大致了解其預(yù)期目的。

你可能會注意到類似地堡的結(jié)構(gòu)、炮塔和底部渲染都共享相同的基礎(chǔ)結(jié)構(gòu)。這是因為這些掩體——如果建造更多，將有助于增加人口上限——具有作為防御性掩體的次要功能，可以讓步兵駐守在里面，升級成一個更大的掩體，可以容納更多的步兵（甚至是野戰(zhàn)炮） ，如底部渲染所示），并且在足夠高的技術(shù)水平下，可以建造上面看到的那些巨型炮塔。

一如既往，我正在努力繼續(xù)研究一些額外的基礎(chǔ)結(jié)構(gòu)和一些現(xiàn)有結(jié)構(gòu)的返工。希望更多關(guān)于額外單元的工作將意味著我可以發(fā)布更多預(yù)覽視頻到 Twitter 和 Youtube。

敬請期待更多。

原文內(nèi)容

You may have noticed a lack of updates to the Youtube and twitter channel the past few weeks. Unfortunately I have been caught up in some other business, and didn't really have a whole lot to show off that wouldn't just be rehashing existing content. I have made some steady progress with some new structures, though nothing really worth of a video demonstration. I also am realizing I am going to have to do another pass over existing structures, to get them to conform to the new pipe system.


First off, the poll:

While I have talked about three factions existing in the game, one currently only has a tiny handful of units actually functional ingame. You might recognize a few of them.

Since this faction - currently dubbed NWO, or Collective, until I come up with a more concrete name - barely has any content currently, I think it's fitting to add additional working units to them to balance out the game's roster so far, especially because people keep asking about this third faction. While I have a more substantial description to create later, the gist of this faction is that they are technically more advanced than the other two factions, relying on superb technology and elite fighting forces, at the expense of numbers, and their units typically exchange armor and staying power for firepower.

I've also held off on creating any base buildings for them so far, due to the way this faction is to be played; rather than purely static buildings, this faction's structures will be semi-mobile, able to walk around the map and redeploy (think the Terran structures from Starcraft, except they walk instead of fly).

Thus for the community poll and what you guys would like to see, you can decide on whether you'd like to see more vehicles for them, or more infantry units.?

Now as for a general status update:

You may recall the conveyers from the last update - these pipes work similarly, moving fuel resources from structure to structure. While this logic isn't fully implemented yet, this screenshot should give you a semblance of an idea of their intended purpose.

You may notice the bunker-like structures, the gun towers, and that bottom render all share the same base structure. That is because these bunkers - which will server to increase the population cap if more are built - have secondary functionality of being defensive bunkers that can have infantry garrisoned inside, be upgraded into a larger bunker that can fit additional infantry (and even a field gun, as seen in the bottom render), and at a high enough tech level, can construct those giant gun turrets seen above.

As always I'm trying to continue working on some additional base structures and on reworks of some existing ones. And hopefully, more work on additional units will mean some more preview videos I can post to twitter and youtube.

Stay tuned for more.
