Hello maniaplanet world :)

I'm French so sorry for my horrible ludicrous english skill

Today, I'm presenting you a new Title Pack for ShootMania in development. It's called Adventure.

Authors :
- Spaï
- Kommu
- Lethan (me)

What is it ?
This title pack will contain a new mode called Adventure too. It will be a Players versus Environment game-play (PvE). For each map created, players have to complete defined missions to win the map.
Missions ideas :
- Items collect
- Bots eliminations
- Infiltration
- Bots battles

What about players ?
The map can be played with a team composed of 4 players max. Each player will have a custom class. Here are the classes available :

Code: Select all

// These values might change in the future if needed
// Tank
#Const C_StaminaTank 0.5
#Const C_ArmorTank 1000
#Const C_AmmoTank 5
#Const C_AmmoGainTank 1.2

// Sniper
#Const C_StaminaSniper 0.7
#Const C_ArmorSniper 300
#Const C_AmmoSniper 1
#Const C_AmmoGainSniper 1.7

// Assault
#Const C_StaminaAssault 0.8
#Const C_ArmorAssault 400
#Const C_AmmoAssault 8
#Const C_AmmoGainAssault 1.2

// Speed
#Const C_StaminaSpeed 1.0
#Const C_ArmorSpeed 400
#Const C_AmmoSpeed 2
#Const C_AmmoGainSpeed 1.9
Editor & Custom objects
When users wants to create a map, two universes will be available : Sci-Fi and Medieval. Each universe will have his own objects. After choosing the universe, the user will place bots spawners, 3D objects, boss spawners... etc...

Omagad, it's maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaadness. What about now ?
For now, meanwhile Spaï and Kommu are working on the core logical system of all of this, I developed a "temp" mode called Annihilation which introduce you what the final Title Pack will look.

Tell me more about this mode Annihilation
Developing this mode give me knowledge about ManiaScript and it was really fun to code it.
This mode is very simple : You have the Laser Weapon with a semi-fast reload, there are many bots on the map, your main goal is to eliminate (annihilate :mrgreen: ) them before the time limit. Here are the features :
- 4 types of bots with a custom color and a unique weapon (Rocket, Nucleus, Arrow or Laser)
- When you hit a bot, you have one chance to five to get a LifeSteal (+100 Armor)
- When you hit a bot, you gain Bonus Time and this one depends of the distance you got him (Longer distance -> Bigger Time Bonus)
- You can play with 3 more players, but the map will be HARDER (Bots number * 2, Time Bonus Gain low...)
- When bots are eliminated, it's maybe not over...
The bots have custom skins : Bot B and Bot D from Unreal Tournament 2004 (screenshot by Kommu)

The mode Annihilation is still in developpement but nearly done (Bugs...). I will post here instructions to get the Title Pack dedicated to the mode.

But you can watch these two videos introducing the mode :
