[Disable scroll for combobox in editor when it's minimazed]

 I think combo box for component field should not be changed by mouse scroll until i open it. I'm changing a values all time by accident when i scroll entity proprieties widget.

I have not yet added functionality to "break" prefabs, which would turn an object from a prefabs into a regular non-prefab object that gets stored in the map.

Yeah, probably it should be enough. Currently prefabs are just useless if i need to change anything in component values.

[Prefab brushes are eing culled wrong (can't be seen at most of angles)]

Still same issues on latest build in Steam. Tried existed maps and tried resaving.

[Quake Tactics - WIP]

Made more changes for improving UI/UX. Any feedback on that regard will be useful for further improvements.

[Prefab brushes are eing culled wrong (can't be seen at most of angles)]

1. Made prefab out of box brush

2. Copied prefab to make a couple dozens of them

3. Brushes are invisible in most cases.

4. I'm not sure how check it properly but picking is also seems to be broken - in my game i can't pick such prefabs at all and have no problems in old maps without prefabs

Example map with prefab

[Prefab component have no properties]

Tried again with other components. It loads properties after all, but original values from prefab, not from edited fields in map which should override it i think because otherwise prefabs are way less useful.

[Prefab component have no properties]

Prefab's components lack of properties - can't be found in Component::Load(), also map.ultra lack of component properties

[Copied prefabs can't be save in groups]

1. Make prefab out of brush

2. Make new group

3. Copy and past couple prefabs

4. Drag into new group created before

5. Save and reopen map - prefabs are beside all groups including Root

Maybe original entity deleting requires for reproducing, not sure.

[How to use Stipple shader?]

Yeah, with 3D camera it does not look good, especially while moving. SetLineStipple(LINE_STIPPLE_DASHED) was best when it was working before switching to OpenGL

[How to use Stipple shader?]

Made it work with strippleMaterial->SetTransparent(true);

Same result. Not sure if i did it right tho

[How to use Stipple shader?]

How does discard work? Looks like it ignores any mesh, not only mesh with this shader

[How to use Stipple shader?]

Thanks! Will try do to so later.

Looks like i was thinking about recently for 3D GUI elements (circle to show range for example) and noticed it in latest Workshop.

[How to use Stipple shader?]

Model just became invisible with it. What am i doing wrong?

[Quake Tactics - WIP]

Changes for last month:

- New special shot for Shotgun - aimed shot (bigger distance and damage but only for single target)
- Now in a first round only a first team have action and movement points
- Outline thickness setting
- Outline optimization which increased FPS a lot
- Different color for LoS lines when target is flanked
- No camera moving by cursor if it’s on GUI or in menu
- Camera movement with RMB and rotation with MMB
- Load Map button to play any map regardless difficulty setting
- Codex with tutorials, weapons and enemies
- Mini Codex with current points for enemy can be opened with MMB on them
- Inventory opening for Marine that under cursor with MMB
- Showing now max action distance with red circle for enemy that under cursor
- Showing potential tiles to go for enemy when cursor on them
- Glowing and sound when targeting a tile
- Which team turn now shown at top
- Current weapon name above weapon bar

 

[Non-latin symbols not displayed]

Seems to be resolved at some point in beta branch

[Max FPS limit]

I did not noticed significant issues with current FPS limit implementation so it was already better than nothing.

Beside 500 Hz 360 and 240 screens are also a thing. Also VSync adds an input lag which is crucial for action games, especially for multiplayer ones.

Even for g-sync fps limiter needs to be to eliminate input lag (to make it lower by 3 then screen hz - 141 if 144 etc).

[Max FPS limit]

Does it matter? Option is an option.

[Max FPS limit]

It's not dumb. VSync does it only for Screen HZ which can be even 500 HZ and a lot of players turn VSync off and use fps limiters.

[Max FPS limit]

Why was removed int maxframerate from World::Render()? Is there a new way to limit max fps now?

[Brush lost materials applied with script after reload]

1. Create brush

2. Select face.

3. Apply texture:

local texture = LoadTexture("/Materials/Developer/trigger.dds")
local material = CreateMaterial()
material:SetTexture(texture)
local faces = program.facepanel:GetSelectedFaces() 
			if (#program.facepanel:GetSelectedFaces() > 0) then
				for n = 1, #faces do
					local currentFace = faces[n]
					if currentFace ~= nil then
						currentFace:SetMaterial(material)
						currentFace:GetBrush():Build()
					end  
				end	
				return
			end

4. Select other face and apply other texture:

local texture = LoadTexture("/Materials/Developer/grid01.dds")
local material = CreateMaterial()
material:SetTexture(texture)
local faces = program.facepanel:GetSelectedFaces() 
			if (#program.facepanel:GetSelectedFaces() > 0) then
				for n = 1, #faces do
					local currentFace = faces[n]
					if currentFace ~= nil then
						currentFace:SetMaterial(material)
						currentFace:GetBrush():Build()
					end  
				end	
				return
			end

5. Save map and open again

Maps.zip

Same for prefabs

Also editor starts behave clunky after that - slow with delays and freezes

[Prefabed rooms don't hold texture coordinates]

Np, i hope it will be fixed sooner now. Can't make a maps for my game without normally working prefabs.

[Prefabed rooms don't hold texture coordinates]

Sounds as an issue that i met before
