apocolypsetrain's Issues

Create destructible objects

Create destructible objects that break into pieces when destroyed

For barrels and barricades
This includes modeling simple 3D objects for the barrels and barricades

Train should damage enemies

Train should damage enemies based on speed so going fast feels powerful. Maybe knock the enemies back as well.

Limit Coal drop-rate

Limit the drop rate of coal from the enemies.
Not all enemies should drop coal.

Add Explosive Weapon

spawn a projectile, when that projectile hits something, or timer expires, spawn sphere collider and check for overlap with enemies or obstacles. Deal damage to ones that were hit.

Barricades To Stop the Train 🚂📦

A way to not only stop the train but also make players have to get off and get rid of it to continue moving forward.
Need the model, collision, and health. Cool!

Upgrade drops from boxes

Adding random boxes that spawn on the map that have maybe fuel, bullets, or upgrades to the train/turrets

Create a reward system

clear idea of what the reward system is, so it can be implemented in code

zombies only occasionally spawn behind train

enemies should spawn over time

enemies should spawn outside of the camera and move toward the player/train at a constant rate. (maybe the rate can fluctuate based on total distance) as the train is not moving the speed at which zombies spawn should increase maybe.

train camera issue

if lever is set back to move while train is reversing, if the train starts accelerating again when lever is flipped to stop train stops immediatly. This shouldnt be the case

fix bug where when there is 3 players incorrect timer is shown

Fuel Collision

otice how the fuel stops player from shooting, as well as stops enemies from walking through. Need to make sure these dont happen, but it still needs to generate an overlap or hit event for the player, so the player can collect it.

Also if you are able to make it so they fall to the ground it would probobly look nice so they are not floating (Definity not roll around tho)

Metrics and blocking

Clear measurements for object/element structure
Blockout of various objects/elements in Unreal Engine

Knockback melee

Giving the players the chance the back slap the zombies! Giving b button a place for players to knockback some zombies off them and other players to get away or towards items.

Prototype Tank Enemy

Larger slower enemy, should deal more damage. Longer attack time. Should show a ring on the ground and slap down. Players within the ring get knocked back and take massive damage

add buttons to control train movement

Add 2 buttons to stop or start the train. any player should be able to press. train should still have acceleration and decelleration time. While the train is moving it should burn fuel.

Respawn location

Making the respawn location the train with a button press to do so. Along with out of bounds respawning doing the same.

Create a survivor model

enemy death anim

disable collision on death, play anim not looping

Zombie Texture + Animation

enemy spawn locations

Playtesting + Feedback (10/26/23)

Get feedback on what works and does not

Level Blockout Continuation

Create several more blockout pieces.

Change health bar color

Create a dash particle effect

In the spawner on the VFX you can change spawn type to By Unit or something so it spawns as the player moves

Change shooting to use hitscans

The way it works currently with projectiles doesn't seem ideal, as its possible for the bullet to skip over an enemy. this feels unfair and inaccurate. Hitscans are also more performant than spawning abunch of projectiles (not that that matters at this point)

hold to use stockpile make train go faster

Players should be able to hold A to add fuel to the train. Progress bar to display the time before the fuel is added so there is time to cancel adding. When progress bar finishes fuel should be added to the train.
