refogging

trineroks · Chief Administrator

after defogging an area with soldiers, and the units leave the area, that place shud fog back up.. but with terrain and structures still visible

cuz sometimes i wanna do a sneak attack but my enemy scanned the entire map with his eagle so he knows my every move

wonderer · Let The Truth Be Told

Would be nice maybe a few mins before the fog sets in.

not mins rly... prolly refog back 3 seconds after the unit leaves the area.

And to view the whole map, we can have an upgrade to the survelliance center. Make it have a hammer icon, and it's build option is Orbital Survelliance Center, with 1000 galaxite cost. The upgrade animation would show (only to the SC which you designate to upgrade) and enemies can kill it in the process, because its upgrading, not building. The build time would be 40 seconds, and at the end it would look like a revamped SC, defog the whole map, and still control turrets. If you lose all your Orbital Surveillance Centers, the map defogs entirely, except for places where your troops are stationed. Then you would have to build a new surveillance center, spend another 1000 to upgrade it back to Orbital Surveillance Center

any thoughts?

Holy **** this is freaking me out I just thought alot of good games refog and I was literally just about to post this. This happened before to but then great minds think alike! It's still kindof uncanny the timing.

trineroks · Chief Administrator

lol galm you were thinking the same thing xD

wonderer · Let The Truth Be Told

Map builders can Add a triger to fog the whole map when ever some one sets on the pad?

So it can look like a strock light
so ever so many mins it goes on and off for a few seconds

but there is no trigger like that in WI...

and there are already so many topics in with this idea. this says too things:

-you need to use the search function
-people really want this

id love to be able to control the refog in the M editor,

id have fun with that, I reckon the max areas should be raised, ( i like spellin things out with defogged areas)

galm · ForeRunner

That seems like a waste of time...

ElectronicFlesh · Very Active User

Naa, like you know how there are clan maps with their name spelled out in galaxite, I can spell something out to view via the minimap by defogging areas. And with the area limit raised I could spell more and give it a more crisp look. I would also be able to make special effects (kindof) in my last map I tried making parts of the map checkerboard with defogger areas. So that if u saw the enemy coming it would dissapear staight away, and play tricks with ur mind.

what the fuck is wrong with ure signature

If this were to be put in place, it would have to be put in by a trigger, and would NOT do this automatically. It wouod be pretty cool for just a few maps, but I would hate it if every map was like that. You would just have to kepp sending out and destroying continuous eagles.

elamre · Mega-Poster

wtf dude? first of all, was no porn. everything was legal, and no naked parts!

second, your still offtopic, even if its your topic

also, refrogging is a great need. mainly because the enemy knows EXACTLY what your doing.

trineroks · Chief Administrator

yes.. exactly

sam · Die-hard Fan

We Like Need! This

but then people would be scared to attack cause they cant see

galm · ForeRunner

It would make the game alot better to have the option.

then you could ambush them and that would be fun like send ten units attacking from the top so they think that your whole army then you send most of the other units of yours and attck the botton and they will never know what happen :twisted:

( AMBUSHED )

galm · ForeRunner

Yeah so then flanking and stuff would actually work.

Cod · Semi-frequent Poster

Yeah galm I think you should push and try and get the mods to listen ask law or Nate ( ECT) to ask scuttlu to see about this

It's good because I like playing game that refog back again It makes the game more funnnn!!!!

galm · ForeRunner

I think they have asked.

sam · Die-hard Fan

scottlu if your reading this can you at least think about doing it this thing or trigger what ever you call it would be like a master change to the game if we can make make refog back up again :!:
