Re: Physics model

SPEAK YOUR MIND

"Does the distance one travels from center make one more free to move?"

"No. Freedom has two parts: potential and resolution; as metaphor has two parts: form and interpretation. Of course, the two are intertwined. Metaphor lines the road to freedom, as symbols and words are the bricks and mortar of meaning. Freedom is being the bricoleur, the mason."

In Response To: Physics model (SilentMan)

The ability to turn and change direction in midair (air control) is native to Unreal Tournament, and is in effect in Marathon:Resurrection, just as in Marathon.
Grenade jumping and wall climbing are weird byproducts of the Marathon physics engine, and don't work the same in UT or M:R (or M2/Infinity for that matter). The deprivation chamber will need to be modified to allow the player to get out again, just as it was modified in the M1:A1 conversion for Aleph One.
