Teleportation Demonstration!

above and beyond you have succeded again

 

If you lads and lasses are interested, my latest Discussing video features this video, as well as the gorgeous screenshot of the furnished room with a map.



I like the teleportation, it's interesting. I would love for there to be actual flying in this game, but sadly that wouldn't really work in a 2D game. Which was why I suggested mode7-esque perspective for those sections, but it'd just be weird.

Here is a question I had about teleportation when I first saw this demo: Does this mean we can pick where we "beam" down? Can we pick an X horizontal coordinate on the world, or is there a static spawn point set in the world, (like in Terraria)?

 

it may be random, or at least on the first time you land on the planet

 

I want my beam to be made of lighting, when I teleport down I shall STRIKE the ground!

 

By Odin's Beard!
I would love some alternate teleportation animations, but damn, I honestly don't think I could use anything but what was shown in the video, haha.

 

So like this omitting the first part of course

 

Essentially.
But you missed the part where 30 people port in right behind my in the same fashion or similar.

 

i still prefer drop pods

 

I wonder if it's possible to play around with teleportation in "Director mode" ?

 

I love how they did the teleportion animation! It looks great.

 

This is already more in depth than I had thought.
I love this game before I've touched it!
Ohyus.

 

you got that right

 

Beam me down, -insert ship name-! The animation looks great! It makes me wonder if you can choose the tele spawn point on each planet surface or if each planet is assigned one safe point of entry via teleport? Either way, can't wait to play me some Starbound.

 

I'm amazed by not just the teleport animations, but the sound of the atmosphere in both the spaceship and on the winter biome. It's the little details you notice in the game that make you happy.

 

Can we select a Cobalt Blue, Sapphire Blue, &/or Electric Blue Teleport Beam Color?

 

I just had the best idea ever.
Teleporting drop pods.
TELEPORTING. DROP. PODS.

 

Only if the drop pod looks like a coffin, then it's cool.

 

This will just make it easier to assassinate my hated villagers.....I MEAN TO GO HOME FASTER.....

 

Careful... what if there's such a thing as Teleporter Traps? I remember this Star Trek: Deep Space 9 Episode where some person or other who was close to Major Kira was killed by some kinda Transporter Trap that sabotaged the Transporter Beam so the person's Atoms got fatally scrambled & the person never got to Rematerialize... It even went the extra mile & took a few seconds to get the job done while the victim was screaming in pain & agony...
