Today I got motivated and I'm going to do a Racing map.
I am starting to do the basics: download a few sounds and sprites to put there and the map size and tiles are set. I'm probably going to use Blazzingx's "Shadows & Lights" tool. This map will (hopefully) follow the guidelines stated here: http://cs2d.com/help_mapping.php?part=3 - unfortunately parts IV and V (the ones I really need) are not finished yet. I keep checking them over and over but it seems DC completely forgot about it. ;/
I created this thread to list a few questions that may come to my mind while the map is in the making.
The questions list below will be constantly updated.
1. How to make a door that is closed at start but that opens 5 seconds later? Could you tell me which triggers to use + how to put "5...", "4...", etc. messages that keep up with the door opening.
2. Do you know any good racing sprites for CS2D? Like finish lines, flags and maybe even car sprites (to put on the map, not to use on player)?
Also, if you have some tips regarding racing maps tell me.
Thanks in advance!
