right click would be nice, but thats used for ironsights on the guns.
I figured this was the case, hence i did not suggest that. :P
I was thinking of how possible it would be to have like dodging left, right and backwards by pressing the jump key when moving in that direction.
In other games they use like movement keys and jump to dodge in those 3 different directions, but since you cannot detect movement key presses server sided (without client mod), you could still try to detect if the player is moving in that direction.
But that could be less predictable.
But then again, don't you use sidewalking for specific reasons only?
I mean in normal walking i do not think many players will use the ability to walk to the side, they will mostly use mouse aiming to take corners, right?
For the cloak, instead of completely invisible with visible name and footstep sounds, would it be possible to have a slight shimmer applied to the player? So that when they move you can see them slightly but when they're still they're invisible? Name wouldn't be visible but footsteps, maybe lower volume, still would.
I really like this!
A bit like the way the invisi watches work when you bump into someone.
Maybe a different kind of cloaking ability.
Maybe one that activates after standing still.
I use this kind of technique in the praying mantis bug on the bug mods, though not very effective, it is an interesting mechanic.
