Trucks

Post by **oranges** » Mon Jun 12, 2017 6:24 am #307073

in absence of cheridan ever getting around to it, I'm gonna add trucks for miners that carry ore.

I need suggestions for features other than just carrying huge amounts of ore.

Do not fuck with the truck.

Make trucks be able to function like MCV's from the C&C games. Meaning you can deploy it in the field to make a mobile temporary base of operations.

Kor's about to be bowled aside by 45,000 pounds of rolling american steel, because this truck has no breaks

Feature: it should be able to transform into a bluespace shelter, then back into a truck. Or maybe just project some kind of shield that protects from storms.
(controlled from your PDA maybe)
So you dont have to fuck around with capsules

Emagged: it can transform into a bluespace shelter even on the station

Even better: just merge this with the minebot, so AI upgrade etc.

oranges doesn't actually intend to try and add this, he just wants to make memes about it and stir up the pot a little since things settled down briefly.

Did I do it? Did I finally understand oranges?

EDIT: test

Give different truck parts to buy from the mining vendor

You want a v20 quad turbo stacked super charge big bore hyper diesel? That'll be 200,000 mining points but you can go mach 5 and punch through walls

Are multi tile mobile mobs even possible?

obscolene · Post by **obscolene** » Mon Jun 12, 2017 7:20 pm #307373

add purchasable upgrades like a mounted drill on the front of it

or maybe have a plasma cutter turret that someone else could use on the top of it, making it a driver + gunner combo vehicle

That actually sounds pretty neat

also nienhaus It's a nice sprite but it doesn't match the futuristic space theme, i.e doesn't look air tight etc. and also technically it's a ute and not a truck

THANK YOU

I resisted being a complete dick about the sprites but basically this

I could add it as an admin option that just gibs everything it runs over and poops out empty space beer bottles

speedwagon is an object.

on the sprite: if you made the n/s sprite 3/4th then you should really make the e/w ones 3/4th as well, speedwagon follows this convention.

Post by **oranges** » Tue Jun 13, 2017 4:07 am #307660

convention is for smaller vehicles driven by bitch ass niggas like you

This will probably end up being M.U.L.E hit and run V2 with running over station folk, ashwalkers and the like with

Oranges you are probably more better applied by also making this replacable with a new truck via robotics (or elsewhere department if you drive it into a chasm) or to allow it to be easily repaired from the wrecks if it gets mobbed. (also why is this in coding instead of ideas?)

Spoiler:

Here's a prototype sprite i made that might interest you, its a halftrack truck with a goliath cloak cover.

because I don't have ideas, I make results, so this is in the coding forum

Yeah it wasn't actually made for this or anything, I just had it. I also may not have ever heard of ute.

kor the new system should have included that and i have constructed it under remie's close supervision so therefore im going to shift all of my blame on them it is really a mystery why this does not work sir

Could be an item found in a lavaland ruin or maybe for a new lavaland mob. A vehicle belonging to the Tera Space Confederation, a small faction from the southern reaches of space. Usually found alongside a couple of double barreled shotguns and some bottles of moonshine and whiskey.

If you some how manged to bring back on to the station and your some how gained enough speed you should be able to ram though walls and run over anyone in your path , but at the cost of heavily damaging the truck
