Today’s work was involving testing the gameplay and adding a way to fight the other players. I was able to add a test orb that attaches to the player on run over and then able to throw it and hit a player if it is at a certain velocity. But I forgot to add the durability below 0 detection, so you don’t die after you get hit by a ball. I also added some ramps that launch the player (but are very buggy).

Play test bugs found;

  • if you become big and you die on clients you don’t die on server
  • replication isn’t working for the death on clients/durability isn’t being replicated correctly to the clients/server
  • when you become big and you go into pool you’re stuck infinitely
  • if you die from the pool’s damage you die infinitely
  • shooting ball midair while moving forward will collide the shooter with ball
  • ramps need to have more Z velocity
  • balls don’t detect after if person that was hit if they have 0 durability
  • replication.

I have a lot to fix tomorrow, but it’s mostly just replication bugs.
