Development Pipeline: Server Spawn Screen WIP (Patreon)
Content
Hello Patreons! It's been a few days, we've been busy and I've been busy. Starting on the Acid Spitter turned out to be a very good decision on our part, it allowed us to get a handle on the workflow and production pipeline. We ended up having to make a 7th revision to the model to fix a few things we found in the engine, but the rig was easily reapplied and weights carried over. The Acid Spitter is officially finished with exception to the animations which will be ongoing (you never know what new emote we might want to add to the game)
Today I wanted to show you what I've been working on recently, well the visual part of it is just what you see, but behind the visual is the code that makes it all work. But when you join a server you will be greeted with a character select screen with server name, their discord link if available and their server message or rules. On the left is where you will choose your faction and your species, gender, and skin (from the skins available to you). You can then spawn into the game. There will also be information about the species as you click on it displayed in the lower left (info we don't want to show yet).
We have some exciting things to tell you about all this later, things I know you will all love. That's it for now though. Thank you for your patreonage!
