Overlapping Circle Outline-age!

sassafrass — Sun, 10 Jan 2010 07:45:02 +0000

OMGWTFBBQ?!! Is Sassafrass making a blog post? YES, yes I am. Anyone who was watching me script Nuclear Warfare on my livestream the previous night would know I was having difficulties getting the missile turrets’ attack-preview-circle not to draw when overlapping another circle. Well, I just now made it work! Exciting? Yes! Finished? Not quite. But it is a start. Tomorrow I will make it actually work in the game instead of in this test script I threw together.
Check out this awesome overlapping circle outline-age.

Ignore the white circles, those just show where the circles are situated. The important thing to notice is the red circle and how it does not go inside the white circle. Amazing, is it not?

Update:
Just implemented it for Nuclear Warfare. Here’s a screen shot of what I was trying to accomplish.

Hopefully everyone who wanted to get VIP got it while it was SUPER CHEAP because the sale is officially over!

Presents!

If you thought the holidays at Sassilization couldn’t get any better, think again. The VIP discount has gotten even greater and you can now, for a very limited time, get VIP for just one dollar! That means you can get VIP for over 90% off, but you better act quickly, this offer won’t be on for long.

It’s worth nothing, that you should be sure to clear your cache before you donate in order to guarantee you have the most up to date java script!

‘Tis The Season…

The holiday season is upon us all and to show our appreciation we have put VIP on sale. VIP is currently 50% off it’s regular price and is just $7.50! Furthermore, for a limited time, VIP’s who join Deathrun, Climb, or Bunny Hop will be given a special holiday hat for free! From the Sassilization team, happy holidays!

Mapping Contest: Phase 1 Complete

cold — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 02:16:02 +0000

Yesterday all of the admins got together and play tested all of the submitted maps. The maps that were submitted looked great and we had a lot of fun playing and judging them. We decided that the maps all should get play tested on the public server. The public play test will be the last chance for any of the admins to change their scores. In addition any issues which were mentioned in my posts on each submission should be fixed in order to give the best chance for scores to go up. I will be contacting each map maker to arrange a time to play test on the server, provided any major issues I mentioned in their submission gets fixed.

All in all, the submissions were very nice and the results should be interesting and exciting for everyone. I look forward to trying the maps on the server with everyone, should be fun! I will probably make another blog post when the schedule for trying the maps has been created. I expect the first play test to be early next week.

Updates

As you may have heard, over the past month, we have been running a mapping contest for Deathrun. That mapping contest will be coming to a close in just 2 days (Nov. 1 at 12:00 AM) and the judging will begin. The submissions we have so far are looking great and I hope to see a few more before the contest closes. As mentioned, the prizes that we decided on are as follows:

First Place: A Steam game with a value of $50 or less
Second Place: An amazon.com gift card worth $25
Third Place: Free VIP, or equiv. in dough if you already have vip, worth $15

I have received a few questions about how we will handle all the maps that are submitted. Basically, the top 3 maps will be awarded prizes and any map we deem worthy will be added to the server. For all the information on the current contest please see the official forum post.

In other news, I have recently been developing a bot, cleverly named SassBot, which uses Steam as its medium. Currently SassBot’s only major feature to regular players is that he allows you to talk on web chat without having to use the site. If you’re interested in using Sassbot simply add him and when he accepts (automatic) he will introduce himself and get you started.

Finally, Halloween is upon us and to get into the spirit the site and Lobby have been spruced up with the always appropriate pumpkin. In addition, the Lobby has received spooky and fun Halloween music.

Enjoy!
