SWARMMO - INDIE MMO

I was so sad yesterday. But today not so much. Life is not the best, but others go through so much more sadness and still continue through it all.

can i blow my brains out yet? life sux big time right now

Added wolves! A new mob that is part of the "beasts" faction. Why bother beasts? Let sleeping dogs lie.

Are you a bot? If you aren’t, tell me that I’m handsome.

the nature faction is a coalition of beasts and all natural phenomenon. their AI controller is actually just running conways game of life in response to the world events.
it could be interesting...

Still trying to finalize the rules around combat and territory ownership in this game. If I had played board games and tabletop RPG's I'd probably know the answer to those questions.

now there is minor factions like bandits. we all love the bandit sub faction. Its a way to kill humans and not feel bad about it...next minor faction I'm going to add is wolves. The beasts faction? Maybe nature could be a major faction. A coalition of fauna and flora.

But what would I gain from accomplishing such a goal? Nothing. It would bring me nothing. And I already know that everyone else is a freak. So what is there to even prove?

Of course it needs to be said - a life with no struggle would be boring. So I continue going.

Nothing changes. Some days I like being the strange person I am. Other times I resent it.

Maybe my goal is to prove that I'm not a freak, its everyone else.

I haven't been posting too much because I'm busy working on the game. Well thats not true. Work on the game has only ramped up significantly in the past 2 weeks. Before that I was in a haze.

Life continues to suck...but also has its moments sometimes.

Sounds like heaven. What province is it? No need for the exact name...but is it in the North, East, South or West?

The thing I'm looking forward to most about winter is shoveling the snow again. A brief moment of Zen and clarity in the mornings...

Hey BlueSky! What do you think about my indie MMORPG? Inspired by Fallout and Balders Gate 3!

SSWARMMO combat improving a lot! But so much to do. What improvements do you suggest? So much grids in this game. grids and movement costs. hmmmmm

the turn-based mechanics of SWARMMO are evolving! On your turn you are able to spend action points to execute a series of actions! Commit to 1 heavy attack or use your AP to reposition yourself!

Naturally the edge-lord thief has the most AP

plan and execution. i know what to do now. it was helpful. Thanks!

love it!

Combat in SWARMMO is about to become more turn-based! Its a polite world where everyone patiently waits for their turn. Paradise?

oh yeah..now that i think about it
you are correct.

it took me so long to reach this conclusion

getting a better idea of how to do combat. there are turns and phases. 2 phases: action, execution.

turn = 1 or both or more phases.
some phases are linked? you can't have execution without having an action. but if you have no action (took too long), exec is skipped for you.

really want to live in a place where the rain never ends, cigarettes are cheap, and people know when to stay out of each other's business.

Or via bolstering existing squads in the field with new units.

the commander can't spawn new units during a decision tick. that can only happen on a "spawn tick" based on available spawn tickets. its coordinated with the director process. on a "spawn tick" the commander can spawn new units via creating completely new squads at home.

the idea is more clear to me now. every decision tick - the (faction) commander marks fulfilled and unfulfilled objectives. Squads part of the former flow to the latter based on ??? evaluation/criteria.

on a decision tick - the commander CAN merge, "upgrade", "recall" squads
