Project list

• finish pet protocol
• Update Magic Carpet and sell it. it needs new flexies, vehicle actions, and camera.
• Make tank game (multiplayer assault)
• Make robot stop motion movie
• Document all types of rotations:
  • what transform is used to change right (or up, etc) to forward?
  • how to rotate around 1 axis to nearest lookat
  • how to zero X and Y while keeping same Z rotation
    • [1]
  • how to rotate child prim around root
  • how to rotate child prim around arbitrary point (this is a move and rotate)
  • how to rotate child prim around it's own center
  • how to rotate an arbitrary point of a child object (as an offset, eg. the top face of a box) around another arbitrary point
  • get the rotation of the avatar
  • get the rotation of the camera
  • get the position of a point x distance in direction y
• make various steering types
  • rotation is duty cycle of arrow keys. something like rotation = rotation + time_since_last_sample * key(1 or -1) else rotation = rotation * 0.5 * time_since_last_sample. If abs (rotation) < 0.1 then rotation = 0. possibly use a 1/2 second trailing average to smooth it out.
  • single press = 50% turn, double press = max turn
  • Dragging HUD element (if this works)
  • Dragging steering wheel?
  • shift-turn = max. can a regular turn be distinguished from strafe while in mouselook?
• investigate already existing 'zaggat' type huds or devices
• Make personal tank (like Bonaparte from Dominion: Tank Police)
• Make a building tutorial movie
• Make a low prim version of Chess.
