Almost done. Im finishing up the shop. I gotta work on the swamp and the caves tomorrow, and finish up the plains. Thx
-Blue

Ok... heres the lists of what I got and what I have to work on:
*Completed: Beginner's Village Map, Tavern, Swamp
*Finshing Touch: Forest, Shop, Bank
*Working on: Plains, Shore, Shipyard

I don't think I can get them in by Monday. I'll try. I need Volrath to give me the unit data b4 i give it to you anyways deli. So just be patient and stick with me. Volrath hasnt been around lately...Thx
-Blue

*EDIT: Im not liking the way the forest map looks, so I'm remaking the whole forest map. Thx
-Blue

K, if you need any help with ANYTHING just tell me and ill be glad to help

Its ok. All I gotta do is do some terraining, and wait for Volrath. I think I should have it done by Monday. I got alot done today.
Update:
1. Forest - 80% done
2. Beginner's Village (Renamed to Daelon)- 100% done
3. Tavern - 100% done
4. Swamp - 98% done
5. Bank - 70% done
6. Shore - 50% done
7. Shipyard - 70% done
8. Grand Shop - 60% done
9. Field - 100% done
10. Plains - 10% done
11. Barracks - 0% done

Overall Average: about 70% completed.

I should have it done by Monday. I might not be able to. As I said we're still waiting for Volrath whereever he went. When I get the unit data, I'll send them to you death. I'll give you a list of triggers when I send it. Thx
-Blue

*EDIT: if Volrath doesnt give me the unit data by next week, I'll start working on some as well. I need an opinion though. Should I:
1. Finish the relative area for humans and go on to other races as the map gets there, or
2. Somewhat finish the human area, start one area for the Horde, and one area for the Damned.
Feedback would be appreciated. Thx
-Blue

The first one, we dont need the other races till later when the terran and triggers are further

Alright. I am about 90% done with the forest map. I wonder where Volrath is lately...
*P.S.: I'm creating a new idea of jobs. First three to be added will be herbalism, farming, and lumbering.
*Lumbering can be acquired by the lumberjack in the forest.
*Farming can be acquired by the farmers in the field.
*Herbalism can be acquired by the apocathery.

*This means I have to add an apocathery map. I also have to create a building for a healer. I think I'll just use the apocathery map for the healer as well. Thx
-Blue

*EDIT: The jobs will add a "taste" to the game, but shouldnt cause that much difference in the game play.

*With herbalism, you can create potions from herbs you gather.

*With Lumbering, you can collect wood and sell them or create *something* with them. (Not sure what yet.)

*With farming, you are able to gather rare herbs, and or gather food and plants.

Tell me if you think its a good idea. Thx
-Blue

And Im not sure if this will be possible, but have you guys played the map elimination? I think they use the carrion swarm or shockwave or something for the gunners to aim. As we get into the game later, I thought it would be more realistic for the archers and gunners to use the same concept of having to aim instead of just pressing "A" then clicking on the enemy. Thx
-Blue

*EDIT: I guess it is possible since it has been done before. But I think this will give the game a better look, and the arrows can be dodged. (And add an arrow system so once you are out of arrows, your hero cannot fire anymore.)

i hope you have a triggerer with either a lot of time or a lot of skill to back up all the ideas

and i'd suggest not using carrion swarm, and rather periodically moved units, because its unrealistic to have an arrow fly through 5 targets, or to have an arrow fly through a tree

Arrows flying through trees maybe. But I think you can change the skills to have it only target 1 target. (I maybe wrong, or maybe just not for carrion swarm.) As far as triggerers go, I got death to do some of it, but when we hit summer, its really the time to trigger then. (Hopefully have most of the terrains and unit balancing done by then) Thx

i believe you can set the maximum -damage- but not targets, ie your arrow will deal damage to the first one but will still fly through all the other guys and not hurt them, which looks kinda wierd :S

Thx for the input Raptor.
Death and Volrath, by the way, we got a new memeber in the development team. Shadowmanifest is joining. Death, I need to know how good you are at jass. If you dont know how to work jass, shadow might be taking the jass part. Thx
-Blue

*P.S. Volrath where are you? We're getting a bit worried...

Bad News

Hey we got some bad news here. Volrath is leaving the development team, at least for now. That reduces the number of developers + the fact that the unit datas will have to be redone now. Volrath will still be mentioned in special thanks for his ideas.

Current Rakaeon Development Team:
*131ueDragon
*Deathbedeli2
*Shadowmanifest

I'll try to get the unit data completed as quickly as possible. Thx
-Blue

P.S. Volrath you're still welcomed to post any ideas you have here.

Triggers

Death, I'm just going to work on the unit data and send you the file. The maps arent completely done, but I'll send you a list of the triggers that need to be done. I think we need to start the triggers. Thx
