LaceWinging it!
Posted 12th Jun 10, by HitmanN  
Alrighty, finally started toying around with Lacewing. Pretty interesting stuff, and the basics aren't as bad as I thought, thanks to the nice tutorial videos by Matt Luard ( http://vimeo.com/10977508 ). Optimization though... will be spending a lot of time learning that. ^^;

Anyways, so far I've got movement, and shooting with the basic weapon (1-pixel pew-pew gun) working ok online.

I've set the following to-do objectives for the first test release:
-Four secondary weapons to choose from
-Landings pads to repair/refuel/restock/switch weapon
-Chat messages

Shouldn't take that long to get there. Chat should be simple to add, landing pads are client-side effect only, and I've got several secondary weapons done for offline play already.

Yeah, Lacewing isn't that scary really. Making a lobby is by far the hardest part though, IMO.
Good luck anyway

Knowing that there won't be many players initially, I'm not making a lobby at first. Instead I'll just make the players join the same game channel automatically.
