SolarTournament – November 2012 Update
On 30, Nov 2012 | inNode.js | vonJohannes Hoppe
After some busy months I published a new version of SolarTournament to Azure. The public git repository was updated, too.
Under the hood it’s a massive rewrite of the client-side code. I would like to thank Ingmar Wietig for his great work. He is definitely more skilled in math and general game related concepts than me! :-)
Improvements of the physics engine:
- free 360° movement; it’s now possible to fly a loop
- the spaceships model gets a tilt when changing direction
- new collision detection that calculates the intersection of meshes
- third-person view
