Next Version Ideas / level editor upgrades
May 17, 2002, 05:52:52 PM
Some of the below ideas are realistic goals, others are not:

as I mentioned in the problems forum the diagonal cliffs are sometimes jagged(depending on which way they go)

an Undo button for the level editor

A random terrain generator would be great

the ability to import a bitmap as the terrain map would make it easier to build intricate levels (different colors = different terrain heights

Tunnels would be fun.

If the train could turn 90 or 180 degrees you could do many things with that(could be a texture for left/right turn)

maybe have multiple planes of water (like a #### or waterfall)

The ability to overlay a large bitmap on top of all or part of the terrain.

tree's, houses, roads, cars, buildings, boats, people....various models you can place in the levels.

backgrounds-skies, clouds, pictures....

Night-time mode- would need to place lighting in the level design and have lights on the train and on the tops of the bridge.

other eye candy like weather (rain, fog)

Problems / Level editor problems
May 17, 2002, 03:34:27 AM
when ever you make a 45 degree diagonal cliff edge that runs from 1:30 to 7:30 (if you lay a clock down with 12:00 forward and look at the hour hand) the edge is jagged. but if you do the diagonal the other direction(10:30 to 4:30) it is smooth.

This should be a simple fix and maybe it can go into the next upgrade.

Does anyone have any Ideas for this level.  it seems almost impossible.  

I am thinking about something that lifts the train but how??

It seems impossible to go uphill that much.

but I am thinking of some sort of lifting mechanism, but how?
