After a control point is captured, it now goes into a cooldown. Since capturing CPs = hacking the trolley and switching its direction, the cooldown helps keep the tension up.
Sorry for the scuffed video editing
Any Thoughts?

Thanks for your encouraging worlds. I do appreciate it.

Yeah, the state of AAA games are not great these days.

With all these new free AAA shooters dropping, Iโ€™ve been feeling pretty down lately about my solo adventure into making one. Still, Iโ€™m gonna keep grinding and finish this game. Hopefully Iโ€™m not deep in a sunk cost fallacy๐Ÿ˜….

Still working on the bot AI system. Itโ€™s taking way longer than I expected ๐Ÿ˜…
For now, hereโ€™s a quick clip of the weapon switch system in action!

Yeah I just forgot to hide FPS meshes when switching to the third person camera and this happened (long time ago) and since I use it to debug my animations and net code ๐Ÿ˜….

Turned this bug into a feature ๐Ÿ˜…, using it to sync FPS and TPS animations and check whatโ€™s replicated and whatโ€™s not. #indiedev #UnrealEngine #gamedev #indiegame #solodev

It could! I'm playing with it now I hope higher values might solve the problem.

Thank you. I think one problem is that I am a CS2 lover and I constantly compare my work to a game which is more that 20 years old and is constantly getting better. I guess that is why It took more than 16 months for me to just finish one gameplay loop. (not fulltime work though).

Oh, yeah! 2 great suggestions. Thank you. I will consider them. The life-bar is really not necessary there!

Why does it always feel like my game gives players less screen space compared to others?
Hereโ€™s a side-by-side with CS2 (and yes, I aced with a pistol ๐Ÿ˜Ž).
My hand modelโ€™s smaller, HUD tighter, maybe itโ€™s the level design or scale?

Feels unreal finally being able to play through a full gameplay loop in my game! Still a ton to polish and improve.

Which one do you prefer: a hit-scan sniper or a projectile-based one?

The tracks are solid static meshes. I couldn't get the result that I wanted using mesh instances on a spline. There are multiple separate splines in the map. I just need to align them with the track.

One in the middle. That's why the wheels are not perfectly aligned.

Much better movement. Now I need to carefully adjust the spline and match the wheel movement with speed.

Yeah, I tried to mimic a real shotgun mechanic and it made it way too powerful. I'd need to add more spread I guess.
