Crossfire maps /test/anthony
|
|
|
|
These maps were created for the purposes of studys into controlling various
|
|
timed events and actions in crossfire. The specific goal in this case was a
|
|
sort of conveyor belt to deliver a sequence of items in order, one item at a
|
|
time. The items could be anything from apartment room keys, passports, scrolls
|
|
of remove curse, or an increasing bonus of special items for completing a set
|
|
of quests in any order they like (assuming the map does not reset :-)
|
|
|
|
The resulting conveyor belt could also be used to create a ``select a prize''
|
|
device, Eg: turn handle until prize wanted is visible, then make
|
|
the `once only' selection of that prize to eject it from the conveyor.
|
|
|
|
It could also be used to create a rotating display of items this quest
|
|
will also you to find. :-)
|
|
|
|
The maps were created in the following order.
|
|
raffles_cascade A study version of the raffles prize selector.
|
|
connected_objects Study of gates/buttons/handles/triggers/altars/etc..
|
|
special_objects More complex study of special devices.
|
|
roller_cades Studies into very tight loops for rolling boulders around.
|
|
cascades A look (and timing) for different types of cascades
|
|
conveyor Using a straight forward cascade to create an
|
|
conveyor belt of items.
|
|
|
|
The result of all these can be seen in the ``Office of Passes'' in Scorn
|
|
which unfortunatally requires a fix to get ``gold floors'' to work again.
|
|
|
|
A Cascade can also be used for other traps! Like a squeezing wall trap :-)
|
|
or timed events, EG: open this, teleport item, create fog, close that.
|
|
|
|
I have provided these maps as examples and `help' for other people wanting
|
|
to create special maps and tricks for their adventure.
