GAM-603 Weekly Blog 14

Corrupted files

This week When I came back to work on the project a major problem I had was the project becoming corrupted. Now I tried to figure out what had caused this problem but no matter where I looked I could not find the reason. But luckily because I am using github I am able to revert to a previous version. This did mean I had to redo the same process as last weeks blog for me this gives of the importance of a tool such a github as if I was not using it I could have lost all my work and had to restart from the beginning and could have meant making the game way smaller to compensate for time.

Second Half of the revolver script

Continuing on from last week I went on with the weapon script focusing on adding the other half. What this includes is weapon recoil and sway. Recoil and Sway is something I did really want for my weapons the reason for this is to make sure they are not just boring static objects that have a functionality but give feedback to the player when used.

At the end this is all the functionality that the script provides for the revolver that I have. All these settings can be change to my liking and makes is so much easier to get the weapon working exactly how I want it to work. as you can also see the script also allows me to add a muzzle flash onto the gun which give more visual feedback to the weapon.

Working on Pause menu

For the Pause menu I used the same script used for the main menu as they are both similar in use and how they work. And so for the simple pause menu I made sure to add a button That would allow you to continue the game, a button that would take you back to the menu and a button that would fully quit the game.
