| Zehra | Some comments and questions on radar mockup and more general/generic notes/observations. | 00:24 |
|---|---|---|
| Zehra | The offset crosshair/target/sight/aim/scope being offset would be confusing at least for me. | 00:25 |
| Zehra | What does give me some idea/impression, is what if multiple radars were an option? | 00:26 |
| Zehra | So you could perhaps have 2 small/mid sized radars, but at different zoom levels | 00:28 |
| Zehra | The other thing, more of a generic note, is what should the radar be precisely? | 00:30 |
| Zehra | Since that would likely determine a lot in terms of how it should appear. | 00:31 |

| blast007 | what if we just make the game a turn-based strategy game? | 01:50 |
| Zehra | lol, but we'd have a different game then. | 02:02 |

| SpringTank | bzflag chess lol | 02:30 |
| SpringTank | might make for an interesting game mode. | 02:30 |
| SpringTank | would be kinda like scorched 3d | 02:31 |

| Zehra | "The king was hit by a laser and checkmated". | 02:31 |
| Zehra | :P | 02:31 |
| Zehra | I did actually want to try some form of BZFlag chess, but errr... my map making skills weren't enough, same as code at the time. | 02:32 |
| Zehra | (My map skills aren't good enough for it.) ;) | 02:32 |
| macsforme | the split-screen view would be an optional mode that has to be intentionally selected by those who specifically want it | 02:42 |
| macsforme | I don't see the point in two radars... there are already enough UI elements competing with the 3D view, and competitive players generally prefer a radar view that is as large as possible | 02:44 |
| macsforme | if we ever start targeting mobile devices with touch controls (or even without), screen real estate is going to become even more scarce | 02:45 |

| blast007 | A while back someone mentioned that it would be nice to have documentation for out network protocol. FlatBuffers could replace our unpack/pack functions and essentially self-document the network protocol, since you'd define a schema. https://google.github.io/flatbuffers/flatbuffers_guide_writing_schema.html | 15:54 |

| Agatha | Wait, bzflag has a 3D view? I thought the radar screen was all there was :V | 19:09 |
