Thanks for mentioning it, though!<br /><br />@<a href="#c6970006543847394709" rel="nofollow">GreenGuy</a><br />@<a href="#c7570587338871944054" rel="nofollow">Lupus Albus</a><br /><br />The turn-based battle system will be in Single Player mode only, the MMO side will be primarily social-based and is unlikely to have combat, at least in the first release, unless it is part of a mini-game.<br /><br />@<a href="#c8834630576566449947" rel="nofollow">Lupus Ford</a><br /><br />I dislike the "Next" prompt as well, I'm sure this will be adjusted in the future.<br /><br />Options can be accessed via ESC, but it is a good idea to have it on-screen.<br /><br />Key re-mapping is already possibly in the engine, but we have not exposed any interface for it yet. Some actions, such as the battle system, still need to be mapped.<br /><br />Bounding areas is an upcoming item on the list of things to do, so be rest assured that kind of area won't be in the final game.<br /><br />Some of the animations aren't perfect yet, but good eye on them, I will relay that to Urimas.<br /><br />The lower-case 'i's are actually capitalized in the scripts, but the Celestia Medium font uses those silly lowercase style ones. We may have to use a tweaked version.<br /><br />Also - the Manticore encounter was pretty much just made for the demo, we have other plans for enemies.<br /><br />@<a href="#c3957754825130082002" rel="nofollow">Lupus Datsun</a><br /><br />The text is sometimes difficult to work with.

Only the Attack and Defend actions are present for the demo, there will be much more coming along. The shadows were thrown in just cause, and will be different in the future.<br /><br /><br />Thanks for your feedback and comments everypony!<br /><br />If you have more questions, check out the FAQ we put up at <a href="http://www.mlponline.net/faq" rel="nofollow">http://www.mlponline.net/faq</a>Toasty Justicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13349950725688597511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1865775941337421610.post-47528013729052371982011-09-29T21:01:46.146-06:002011-09-29T21:01:46.146-06:00So the demo ends after the manticore fight?

Not just to the...The text feels too close together. Not just to the edge of the dialogue box but each of the letters are awfully close to each other imo. The black background and the yellow letters don't look that nice. Even if the letters were white with a yellow outline it would look better. <br /><br />This was mentioned, but when entering a new area, sometimes twilight will still be walking without the movement key being held down and walks into a wall. it's fine once I get moving again though.<br /><br />I love the way the battle screen looks! Very cute. However when the battle is won, that black and yellow text box and level-up information look out of place. Maybe a pop-up box in the same pink/red scale instead? The stat increases moved by too fast for me to actually see them.<br />when I tried to see if there were any spells, it would end the turn and let the manticore attack instead.<br />The shadows under the ponies usually don't fall directly under them and it looks weird. <br /><br />For the multiplayer bit, turn-based combat could still work. If I recall, Atlantica Online uses a turn-based combat system (albeit not a final fantasy-esque one) and pulls it off with aplomb.<br /><br />All in all, what's already done looks great! Obviously there is still an unprecedented amount of work to be done but what's there is lovely.

Or just make it so that clicking anywhere in the text box advances the text once it's all typed out.<br /><br />I also recommend an Options button in the menu in the upper-right corner.<br /><br />And I STRONGLY urge for implementing key remapping! I hate wasd, the arrow keys are no better, and while the keypad works well enough, it would be rather awkward to use along with the mouse if it actually did anything in the game, which it doesn't. I was forced to use GlovePIE for this game, which will cause me further strife if I will actually eventually be able to communicate with other players via text.<br /><br />Fluttershy's back yard scrolls more than is what would be aesthetically pleasing. Considering that "room" is smaller than the screen, is it possible to prevent all scrolling on that screen completely?<br /><br />Upon further scrutinization, I notice that the walking animations are not smooth - they appear to be missing half of the frames they need. Basically, a hoof will teleport from extended backwards on the ground to extended forwards on the ground instead of being lifted off the ground and placed further forward. A minor issue to be sure, but I don't feel I'd be doing my job as a tester if I didn't point out everything I noticed. This issue is not noticeable when your pony is walking north or south.<br /><br />When Fluttershy speaks, I notice that the text does not appear to use any capital I's and instead just uses lower-case i's.<br /><br />As for the Manticore encounter, there needs to be some manner of incentive not to fight him - one that feels equal (yet different) from the experience gained from defeating him.Fordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12598115806970858612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1865775941337421610.post-62777098602739463142011-09-29T15:23:10.505-06:002011-09-29T15:23:10.505-06:00@Lupus Albus
