Squad-Based Gameplay

This is going to be a thread for the detailing of my project to bring a more squad-like game play into halo:

I managed to grab that video pretty luckily imho. Sapien keeps crashing telling me that the player weapon deleted unexpectadly.

Why the flashlight? b/c I have no other alternative for issuing commands.

That's cool, is there any way to point at a location and say "go there"?

I'm planning on having a flank and an advance ahead mode.

In fact, the framework for it's all ready. I just need to script it in

You should make some sort of HUD thing to maybe show how many AI are following you, and what they're health is.

I wouldn't know how to do that without open sauce tbh. And even then, unless someone volunteers to help me with open sauce i'd be lost lol.

You can do it with the vehicle, however, thats a vehicle. If someone knew how to do it without open suace, that would be cool. or at least have how many AI are following you on the side.

I remember you talking about this a while ago, really like this idea, especially RTS. Once I get OS updated and boost lib. installed, I'll help you out with the design and implementation. FUN :downs:

You make me very happy. :neckbeard:

Something's wrong with my keyboard ingame (I think some program is hijacking the keyboard priority) so I give you guys this:

I need better tags. D:

E: I managed to record a vidja without my keyboard screwing with me. Just check my xfire profile for it when it's up (about 3 minutes from this edit)

How do they know which direction is advance or retreat?
