Could you explain the bait part a bit more? I'm not sure where you would get the bait. (I feel confused at the moment, maybe it's that)
[editline]01:38PM[/editline]
Committed these changes:
- You can now aim at a bait and select your rod to hook the bait.
- Added a new parameter to the catch, which is models (which is also a table). So type is now the entity type
I added dead headcrabs too (you catch ragdolls)
Oh i left out the whole part about money.. Ill explain after school
I found a nice way to lengthen or shorten the rod easily. Maybe you can buy different sized rods and stuff too.
I added to my other post so check it out.
You're still not explaining what the bait would be, as in what large bait could be and small.
At the moment the bait is just props the catch likes.
I am so not understanding... model wise?...???
Should I hide all info on where to catch things and how to catch them? It could be fun not knowing and learning instead.
[QUOTE=CapsAdmin;20296117]Should I hide all info on where to catch things and how to catch them? It could be fun not knowing and learning instead.[/QUOTE]
Definitely, nobody would've ever played Diablo 2 for so long if the game explained how to best drop set items or gain xp.
If I read properly you will be able to craft things, it would be nice if you could then use some of them either to help you or to hinder/annoy others. Also what if by dropping one of these crafted items in a body of water other players now have a chance to catch it back?
Then you could craft say some underwater dynamite, dump it in the lake and wait for someone to fish it and explode along with his boat (because you will *need* fishing boats).

Agree'd
This is awesome. Although, I don't like the whole third-person thing. You should add an option to switch between third and first person.
[QUOTE=Tyvak;20302619]This is awesome. Although, I don't like the whole third-person thing. You should add an option to switch between third and first person.[/QUOTE]
This is very hard to do I think. It is why I chose thirdperson mode.
I'd have to make a viewmodel and all that and predict where it would be and so on.
[editline]02:40PM[/editline]
I'm almost ready to commit the levelup system. I also removed a lot of info and remade the info bar.
I just gotta test it some more in multiplayer before I commit.
[editline]03:47PM[/editline]
Committed!
[editline]03:54PM[/editline]
Also added new images to the OP.
[QUOTE=Extazy;20294212]I am so not understanding... model wise?...???[/QUOTE]
What I meant was: Will the current bait system have to go if this was implemented? Will all catch use 5 different bait?
Fixed experience copying to other players
Fixed some bugs
Increased the experience to next level rate. (uh, it's faster to level up now)
[QUOTE=CapsAdmin;20304669]What I meant was: Will the current bait system have to go if this was implemented? Will all catch use 5 different bait?[/QUOTE]
Probably. And yes.
Regarding the different bait idea.
Makes it so different catch go for different bait. So say if you had the following bait:
Insects
Worms
Pacifier
In the catch table you could add a field called bait. The bait for a regular fish would look, say, like so
Bait = { "insects", "worms" }
Where as the bait for a baby would be Bait = { "pacifier" }.
The possible things you can catch are restricted to the bait you are using.
This would add to the fun of discovering. You'd catch a bunch of things using insects, then you'd try another bait and discover a new range of things you can catch.

I don't understand this. Isn't this what the mod already does?
I think he's talking about the entities and that being a type of bait.

I think requiring a boat is too gamemode-ish.
I made the angry baby more aggressive. This is a lot of fun cause if you catch one and you're on a platform in the middle of the water, it's hard to catch and kill if you release it. It will escape and swim around like crazy around you and moving objects. Its main priority are melons so it [i]will[/i] launch into your melon bait and destroy it. You can also make automated traps using wiremod and dynamite or something. I made a trap using a target finder and an explosive with a melon attached to it and it detonated when a baby came close.
We cheated and spawned a lot of babies and going into the water made all the baby cluster up and push you up in high in the air.
It's fun, you should try fishing angry babies in the middle of the water (if it's huge)
Catch of the day any one?

[QUOTE=CapsAdmin;20312904]I don't understand this. Isn't this what the mod already does?[/QUOTE]
I don't know, haven't tried it.
From what I assume you have a single type of bait at the moment.

The bait is a table.
Seems like a great addon. Just one suggestion:
*The store should sell some kind of radio that plays nice music to listen to while fishing.
Just played with this a bit, pretty fun. If I can think of some interesting fish I'll try to make a few.

I would be grateful if you could. I really need more catch.

4:51 PM - [SoS] Infinitus: and maybe the opposite
4:51 PM - [SoS] Infinitus: a death fish, hard to catch and not good fertilizer
