Wouldn't it be cooler, if the afterimage that is left behind after a teleport would have the same effect like in the anime?Like, having all thoes lines "cutting thru"..I don't know how to explain it...
In esf, the afterimage is too simple.

Wouldn't it be cooler, if an enemy is at short distance in front of you, when teleporting, you could land behind him, facing his back, for a surprise hit/ Just like in the anime...

Wouldn't it be cooler, if the swoop would have a trail, not very long, a short one...It will look more authentic...

Wouldn't it be cooler, if you could teleport WHILE swooping? So you could be heading for somone in speed, and all of a sudden be in front or behind him?

Now just tell me your oppinions of what's cool, and what's not:D

Allready possible. You just have to know how to do it.

You dont exacly teleport while swooping. But you do it right after. Same efect. And it requires atleast some skill ^^

I know about that, and in my oppinion, it requires TOO much skill:laff:


Instead of

swoop ______ teleport ____ swoop
>>>>>>>>> - - >>>>>>>

it's more like

>>>>>>>>| ???? - ----- >>>>>>>>>>
swoop ____ stop think teleport swoop


And what do you think about hte other stuff?

People can already teleport behind you and hit you, and yes i mean, they start infront and then suddenly appear behind you, it takes a lot of skill but its do-able. The lines thing, ive already got a good idea how to do it... just gotta hope its code-able ;)

For that I'd either be thinking a sprite, or a bund of black particles emmitted with a motion blur effect added to them. Works for me.

There isn't a such thing of too much skill, If you think it requires too much skill then that probrobly means you don't know how to do it.

It's as easy as hell to tele swoop, I figured it out when 1.2 was released when I was a 1.2 newb, you just teleport inbetween the second tap of swooping.
