Level design basics, part 12

Accurate level design
The best way to learn level design base, is to make a level in unreal
editor. It takes a great deal of work on details and the script code.
A wild strategy campaign takes a great deal of knowing how forests

work(grow). Accuracy is very important when designing, because
video game character accuracy is important as well. As accuracy is
basically important in any game, even in games that are not first

person shooters.  United states army is using this method for first
shooter video games making, more specifically Americas army games.
For the weapon barrel accuracy. They didn't just make the weapon

three dimensional models and apply some physics and just pull
the accuracy out of thin air. Making a level map from the level design
for three dimensional video games is hard. It requires a lot of

assembler related bit wise operations. The best idea for a map
making start would be to drive a large 2d rectangle area, like 100
meters times 300 meters. That's 30 thousand square meters. Then

apply the map to an editor. Check for all the entrances into the map
on all 4 borders. And exits. You should consult united states army.
Before making a military game. Forest is what should be covered

next. The three dimensional trees on the map.

Map nodes
Unreal Tournament 2004 's onslaught uses at power nodes, connected
to both bases. Map nodes basic building structures of level map. They
provide a draft support for the central part of the map. Battlefield

games are approved by the united states army. It literally means a battle
field. A campaign map should have level geographical relation between
maps. Basically it's not enough to make a campaign map and then just

randomly put the spots in order: you have to keep in mind the level
maps. They work just like onslaught map modes. On any difficulty,
onslaught mode is the hardest, also on any difficulty, skaars are the

most challenging. They are included in the level design. Their methods
and hard to get tricks. Rankin is a skaar zone. They climb metal plating
steeps while shooting. Or in other words, looking in the other direction

of climbing.

object oriented programming

Object oriented programming is a sound and bold approach to c++ and internet wiring application and video games. It reduces a lot of code messes, made by global and half global functions. One of the more advanced object programming techniques are private access, poly morph and object message inheritance. It is set by c++ bjarne stroustrup and iso isometric standard convention comitee to use classes instead of structs and structures for making objects. Which means you most definitely should , but not must or have to. class Monster {     std::string memory_attributes{}; public:     void treck();     void track();     void trace(); }; The treck() function makes the monster roam and do human like jogging and trimming. track() means the monster goes ai path tracking and trace() means it tries to find other monsters in the area. class Weapon {     std::string memory_attributes{}; public:    void use(); }; void Weapon::use() {   ...

What does a good game consist of? (part 19)

Programmer's Role in Game Development -part 1: Better Code Organization This will be a bit different blog post compared to the previous. It will be a sub-series of the role of programmer in the game development. The first part of the sub-series will explain how a game programmer is more effective alone or in a team. Code organization is in my experience essential, as the amount of code quickly increases, especially if the game has many features. It includes: knowledge of the programming language, APIs, dev kits and make sure you know the techniques with which will you finish the project  list of steps to get there a clear to read and understand GDD a clear task list don't rush to learn everything about everything related to your project-set to make a project which you can actually handle(=have learnt 98%-100% about it) There you go, one step closer to understanding how to make a classic game.
