It really depends on the meeting of gameplay and graphics, like someone up above said. If either is out of proportion, the game begins to fail. I can play text-based games, if they are good, but I do feel graphics make a difference. Luckily, CC has great graphics, for it's engine.

Re: Deadly Vinepit of death The vinepit is great. I managed to survive one with a hoverboard but then got caught in another.

Re: Deadly Vinepit of death My vinepits don't appear to do anything but the rope. Nothing appears to be missing from the .ini file...

Re: Deadly Vinepit of death Hmm, yeah it doesn't seem to do much damage  . I don't think that's what it's supposed to do...

Re: Deadly Vinepit of death Woops, I accidentally made the MOPixels not move at ridiculously high speeds, that's why it doesn't do any damage. Will commence launching 0.22 in 3...2...
Uploaded faulty 0.22, 0.23 is uploaded now.

Re: Deadly Vinepit of death A way to kill it...
I think there should be a core, which is placed separately from the vine pits. The core would have an effective radius of x. Pits are active if within range from core, becomes dormant if said core is destroyed.

Sounds like an awesome idea, but I thought about just making the thing where the vine comes out vulnerable, and have it take 20 hits before it dies. When it dies, the pit is deactivated for 20 minutes.

Re: Deadly Vinepit of death If you really want them to have a chance to revive, then the death time should be much less than 20 minutes.
Within 5 minutes I think. Uless you want them semi-permanently out of service.

Re: Deadly Vinepit of death Yeah, it should be shorter than that, more like 2 to 4 minutes.

Re: Deadly Vinepit of death It looks and works great One flaw ive noticed though when 2 pits are placed close to eachother a actor can get pulled by 2 at the same time thus not killing him but instead pinning him inbetween the pits. Something fun to do , use a Heavy brain robot to lure knights from MM into the pits  heavy's can actually get grabbed by 2 pits and still be able to break free,jetpack bursts do wonders

Re: Deadly Vinepit of death Make it stop trying to grab an actor for 30 seconds if it cant kill an actor within 30 seconds.
