Strafe Arena 1.13

This was a map I made a while ago and I thought I'd post it here.

Objective: Kill your opponents' Fenixes using three weapons: a Dagger, a Gun, and a Bomb.

Game Options:

• FFA / Teams
  
• Lives
  
• Health (How many times you get hit before dying)
  

Weapons: Each player gets three zerglings to use their three weapons. Move a zergling down to use the weapon stated on the power-up beside it. Hotkeys are recommended.


The Dagger: Kills all enemies near your Fenix.

The Gun: Shoots a straight line of fire in the direction your Fenix is facing and kills all enemies in its path. You can block enemy gunshots (explained later).


The Bomb: Plants a bomb behind the direction your Fenix is facing. Then it will detonate the next time you use it, killing enemies near it.



Blocking: When an enemy's gunshot is coming toward you, simply turn around from the direction it is coming toward you, and it will stop.


1 Mineral means you can use a weapon, 0 minerals means you can't.
Your gas tells you which direction your Fenix is facing: 1 = up, 2 = left, 3 = right, 4 = down.

There's only one bug I found, which happens if you move your zergling in the top before the game starts.

Thoughts?

Hey, I think I played the first version with you, along with Pyro, I think. CaptainFalcon right?

I suggest that you post the map.

=O I coulda sworn I attached it when I first posted it.

And yeah, it's me . It's been a while since the first version, I don't remember your username too well =\

I think that the stargate system was better than the zergling system. And it's also faster to detect when the zergling is not in it's location that detecting when it's in a different one.

Hm, really? I would think detecting when it's in a different location is faster.. Unless do you mean a 1pixel by 1pixel location on the zergling?

Use an inverted location (look it up in the wiki, if you don't know what it is)- it will give you the fastest movement detection.

Thanks for that, I just got it to work. It's surprisingly faster It will be useful for another map I'm making atm.

Can you upload the version with inverted locations?

Alright! CaptainFalcon!!
FALCON PUNCH!!!
Show me your moves!!

This game is awesome, and it is definately chaotic beyond my level of play.. so I simply can't play this game without getting owned/a headache.
I think it is partly because of the many hotkeys that we gotta use.. I would always click my zling too much or w/e.... and mess up somehow...
A gateway system would've worked too I think .. like z = dagger, t = bomb, and d = gun...
But u know what? it doesn't matter at all... your system is fine

However, it is a very over-the-top crazy game... >< .. I don't think I can get the hang of it...
but damn... it totally owned me like a FALCON PUNCH would..

SHOW ME YOUR MOVES, BITCH!

Meh.. making 18 same inverted locations would take a while.. >< and I'm working on another map. Maybe when I have more time and I'm not feeling lazy.

I fixed the bug mentioned earlier, updated first post.


Thanks . Yeah, people say that a lot. It's a fast paced game but gets easier when you get used to the hotkeys. The first weapon system was a stargate, but this method proved to be faster .
