A little challenge

Post by SHAD0Wdump »

Who here can best combine BSF style sections,Shipwright Arms style sections,and Fraxy sections?

Sounds only a slight bit mad at least to me.

Lets step it up a notch.

I present a challenge to ye ambitious shipbuilders:

Combine BSF style sections, Warning Forever sections, Fraxy sections, SA's TSA style sections, Eri's fuel rods, AD's two-pronged nose with sweeping side wings at the rear shape, Anna' grade section arrangement, at least one of every default section including Kaelis' steampunk and mecha sections, Arc's heavy composite turrets (fully functional), incorporate Eri's self-destruct and fin funnel triggers, make use of Danny's tendency for vibrant colours and forward shielding, must completely fill a 1024X960 screen, use at least 1 of every weapon and module (modded), cannot be shaped as anything remotely construed as phallic, have logically placed EX thrusters everywhere, make use of at least three other people's custom sprite sets on top of that (BT's perhaps), be stock balanced for its size, have a fully-functional complex transformation trigger and, finally, a backstory spanning at least 5 paragraphs long (must include thesis and conclusion).
Realism, seriously? It's a space ship game. Realism was thrown out the window a long time ago.

Also, it must blow up into a shape vaguely resembling a phoenix in flight, regardless of how the hull looks.

Energy weapon turrets should also have charging sequences and animations, and include glow triggers that emulate heatsinks when the weapon fires, and kinetics should have animated ammo belts/recoiling barrels/ejected casings as appropriate.

The ship must also have visible hangar bays, with fully animated doodads depicting hangar activity and fighter craft. The ship must also have a complete understructure detailing all auxiliary facilities, as well as triggers that will shut down the ship if certain reactor sections are destroyed, and I got into one little fight and my mom got scared and said you're moving with your auntie and uncle in bel-air.

I felt like trying this until I saw "Anna' level section arrangement".

And be without fake aegis abuse, but still using it on all of the exterior.

May whoever accomplishes this be referred to as
'God of Everything Awesome'.

I guarantee that nobody will be able to make a ship with all of these rules.

And yet it has so very, very much potential.

No, it was a terrible idea from the word go, and you should be ashamed of yourself for posting it.

It was still kinda a silly idea before Squishy twisted it, but yeah, the original concept was workable if unlikely. Stock sections simply don't mesh well with fraxy and SWA-styled sections, but with some work it could be done in a way that didn't look like ass.

Perhaps something more reasonable would be to limit to just one style of sprites and keep everything else. The phoenix shape explosion bit is impossible though, as parts will always be blown off in parts. Everything else sounds cool.
