Oh hai, im new. sort of

and i need cazy mod ideas. bring it

Ohai. How about a wall jump mutator. I just were on a server that had it and I thought it could be fun. Also I thought it could be a fun project to get myself into xonotic modding but on that end I have more ideas like:

-new movement mechanics:
--wall jump
--double jump(not that xdf definition but 2nd jump in mid-air)
--crouch sliding (dynamic fricton based on your speed when pressing crouch, as crouch has no real use ingame as its no cover based shooter and grenades damagee through walls anyways)
--maybe per surface gravity so you can walk on walls or having a sphere level ("surfaceparm grav" ...or something as shader-value)

-turret updates:
--enter turret like a vehicle and control it (should have a hud-element to indicate that youre supported by a fusion reactor etc.)
---should be toggle-able like having an ai when no one controls it, no ai at all, not controllable at all etc. best even via map-editor

vehicle updates:
-they should be affected trigger_impulse etc.

-devastator mutator:
--i want the redeemer from ut so bad lel

-a 'Play-Now' button that connects you to the best server like ranking them by some formular like, that accounts for ping and players
--under it you should be able to turn on and off the modes you wanna play, specify max ping, minimum players

-more fun stuff for mappers:
--counter, counter_increase, counter_decrease, constant, value_access_gate (like giving you the playercount on the server or in an area)
--compare gates
--func_enterable(a brush entity you can enter like a vehicle, needs a origin brush to place the player), should output what buttons the player presses, except the exit key
Always dreamed of having this in xonotic(better mute it):

Ditching QuakeC for better language? That would be fun.

You call that a mod? As much as i would like to work on something like that projects on that scale is out of scope for em atm.

Wall, double and slide seems easy enougth; also sorta goes in line with some stuff i want to do with Overkill, will look into.
Local gravity is a whole other can of worms, at least if you expect to change the down angle (eg walk on walls). Unlikely.

Player controlled turrets would be rather cool, and it is something i have thought abt in the past, however doing that right mean hooking them into the vehicle code and that code in turn was in a preddy bad state last i saw it which also addresses the vehicle point; that code needs some serious work; not the sort of light fun stuff im looking to do to get going again

-devastator mutator:
--i want the redeemer from ut so bad lel

This should be fairly easy, at least to get a PoC going. I'll look into it.

Menu stuff is not really my thing, but i like the idea - let's hope someone else pics that up.

Think some of this would be doable with existing func_ stuff, but may be wrong there, will have to check. _enterable would again likely tie into vehicle code or similar and that needs some TLC first.

Wow nice. Maybe overkill gets a comeback.

Also the most annoying thing I forgot mention:
The weapons-list hud element should use the priority list you specify in the options for sorting the weapons.

I know its menu stuff though.


Btw is there some guide on how to compile modified code and where to put the output? Preferably windows.
Coding in C would be a smaller problem. (i just hate the ';')

Ok one thing I forgot which would be awesome:

Instead of having to define the cubemap for each texture just write $cubemap and place cubemap_probe entities that automatically capure a cubemap, blur it and reference it to the shader.

Tzork!!!

Hey man!

Oy u oldold nerds , wtf is going on here , like i have been online and no old members
