flying_squirrel 0 Posted October 6, 2008 (edited) work continues. currently it is us programmers who are behind and need to catch up. although quiet, we continue in the background completing the seemingly endless little things that need to be done. At the moment we work on the AI. in this sucessful test, we got aircraft to fly in formations, two offset to a leader which itself is flying down a scripted path. that shot was a couple of weeks old, the leader was then not able to fly accurately down the path - it would fly parallel but off centre by about 200 meters. pretty close in navigational terms, but not good enough if the same system is to be reused to guild a plane down onto a landing strip! happily now the AI can do this. so the next step is to do just that - make our planes land on a landing strip/carrier. this is a fun part of the project. from working on the AI, gameplay emerges.
