Rts-sk To Rpg

by Matthew Harris · in RTS Starter Kit · 04/03/2006 (8:41 pm) · 2 replies

I just purchased the RTS-SK and am pretty excited. Its got a lot of the features I need for my RPG, camera, RTSUnit, minimap, selection, and fighting.

I have a few general questions.

1.) How would I make it so I control just one unit (the main character)? Am I supposed to put the other units/enimies/npcs on another team? If so how do I do that.

2.) Is there a way to make the camera follow just the main character while still being able to pan/zoom.

3.) Any suggestions on making the fighting turn based style.

Don't have much for ya (just started with Torque and RTSSK myself), but I can point you in the right direction for #1 anyway. You'll find the code that creates the units in starter.RTS\server\scripts\core\gameConnection.cs, and in there you could create yourself a single character on team 0 and everything else on team 1 (or however you end up deciding to do it)
