what does it take to classify as repelling @NotDarkMagician

uh what are the evidence for repellant props

@svarozhyc There is nothing "basic" about these RTS games.

The coding involved just to grant units pathfinding in the games was pretty darned sophisticated back in the day.

Well we were doing this study with an olfactometer

It's complicated

I'll explain once I finish writing it up

cool <:tiptip:462282246695419934>

@Telly_G 『⚡130』PC | Hank Hill approves

what what

ohhhh

yeah the pathfinding was legendarily fuccd

in westwood games

the gameplay was to control the units around efficiently 😛

whilst theyd be figuring out which one should move for the other to pass through

many hours lost in red alert 2

i realise it's a massive challenge and the games were very playable and enjoyable with their solutions

@svarozhyc Yup. The pathfinding wasn't perfect.
But even getting the pathfinding up to that level was quite difficult back then.

They had to do a lot of things completely from scratch. There were no reference to take ideas from.

yeah they pretty much made the genre

westwood and blizz

damn EA

and blizz having a midlife crisis lol

I'd argue that the team behind Total Annihilation have a big share of responsibility for the genre.

@svarozhyc Did you ever try out the TA team's latest installment PLANETARY Annihilation? 😉

Pretty fucking insane as far as RTS games go.
