DevBlog 7 - Collisions, Death, Respawn

9/18/2016Written by: Carmine

This past week I added colliders to all the current objects. Collisions will cause your hull health to go down. When your health goes to 0 the ship is destroyed and will respawn after a few seconds.

Under the hood, I have messages working across the network to send/synchronize commands, so while for now the ship is telling the other players it blew up, this plumbing will be used to send messages about firing weapons and abilities.

I've also replaced the Space Station model, and I've added the ability to add lights to objects.

Later this week I'm running a drum and dance camp so I might not have an update next Sunday.

Thanks for following along!
