11 March 2004 02:59 (UK time) I've been thinking that the units would work better if they had a line of sight - you know, like in Metal Gear Solid and a lot of the other games. This would work good with the patrols and commands idea. It would also make stealth a sort-of option through parts of levels. Also, there should be ways to alert people to where you are, cameras, trip-wires, alarms. That could be tricky though. But cones of sight shouldn't be too hard.

26 March 2004 19:53 (UK time) Stealth does make a game more interesting... in multiplayer it can be even more useful, although harder to program. I made the default chariture in my mod become invisible in multiplayer if he stands still long enough, although this only works if you don't have the always show playernames on.
