I would also like a Level Physical Adjuster. Basically, there would be a bar saying 'Change Adjust: X __ Y __ Z __ and an Adjust button. The __s would be default set at 0.0 You would type in the number of units you want to adjust the level and it would change it. All objects would be that much X, Y, and Z adjusted, and the tiles would be that much lower, farther, or higher.

That way you could make a wlv from the top of a canyon and another from the bottom of it that looked otherwise identical without having to change the Z Adjust of all the objects on the ground, canyon and all the tile heights individually.

As for multiplayer: how would it work, anyway? :?

Deathmatch doesn't fit the game type, and co-op... maybe for being able to move all characters "at the same time" for harder action-based tricks, but other than that, I don't see ANYTHING new that multiplayer could bring to the table here.

A MMO is theoretically possible, but it'd be way harder to develop... plus I tend to hate MMOs, so the less I say about them, the better for everyone.

Look at Portal's co-op. That worked very well.

Portal 2 gave different pairs of portals to the two co-op characters. Is there a logical way to make the characters abilities differ like that in WA?

Well, there ARE player-only buttons, so maybe Player1 and Player2 specific buttons?

I have an ideal! How about commentary mode. Valve does it with its games.

I was thinking that there would be speech bubbles on a certain spaces and if you right click it, someone will talk about that part of the game. Like valve does it.

:idea:

Custom sounds.

E.g.

in PotZ editor, you go to Chomper object:

Custom Sound, Moving: !Default
Custom Sound, Destoryed: !Default

etc...

May have mentioned this before, but kill commands. When anything is killed, you can change it to have any command, including win/lose adventure. Killable stinkers would be great.


And custom losing messages maybe?

Ooh, custom losing messages = Yes.

Think of all the plot/humor possibilities...

How about a special CMD button that killed the player but not anything else when stepped on? It looks really glitchy when a CMD 5 -1 destroys all the hats, outdoor objects, and furniture in a room. :x

Oh, and custom sounds. You can associate a command or event with a sound, so like when you finish a dialog about a bomb, a voice calls out and starts saying 10, 9, 8...

That would be cool, but uploading lots of fatty .wav files could be bad if you have a lot of sounds in your levels.

Multiplayer does seem like a good idea. But co-op would be better.

I also thought of the idea that WA could be compatible with PS3, Xbox, and especially the touchscreen devices; I love this idea.

Well, there WILL be an indigo magic feature for the coming WA. as for the 16:9 thing, I don't actually know what does it imply to exactly. :oops:
