Platypus 2 Reclayed

[umbral ridge]

leeching off my hearts

[sly pond]

DW, there are I-frames in our version.

IIRC, their I-frames upon spawning last 2/3 of a second.

[umbral ridge]

Yes those birds were already flipping the bird

[sly pond]

I said I was busy IRL, but I guess not today. :D
Anyway, enjoy swatting those bugs.

The animation index was way easier than I thought.

Also, I re-arranged the sprite sheet of the bug to make the animation system simpler.

[static copper]

oh nice, that's way more simpler

[sly pond]

So Bonnie apparently prepared a forward sprite sheet for the bugs, which looks like this:

[static copper]

also

[sly pond]

Love how I'm still typing midway. :3

Anyhow, fingers crossed till we get 10k messages here in this thread.

I made the bugs look up when below the player, but fsr, when going to the left while below, they flicker for a bit.

[static copper]

you can see my issue with something earlier

switching spritesheets can be finicky

[sly pond]

IKR?

IDEK if it is actually a bug or is it just our finicky animation setup.

[solemn epoch]

hopefully its gonna be less noticeable in regular run cuz the animation is very fast (in frame per second)

[sly pond]

I suppose so.

[sly pond]

Yooo, I think I've finally gotten to fix the bug.
-# Uhm, no pun intended. :p

[rich remnant]

you truly did some bugfixing

[solemn epoch]

bugfixed the buggy bug creature

[sly pond]

Welp, not anymore. :3

I just realized I used the same solution as the one I used for the smooth Psychosquid fin transition.

[static copper]

i still don't know why mine didn't work

[sly pond]

What caused the flicker issue was because the GoTo function wasn't executed every tick.

[sly pond]

Alright, I already committed to polishing all the bugs on GitHub.

[sly pond]

@rich remnant, I think this would be a good reminder that you'll probably want to make the sprites for the nuclear bomber flip plane. :3

Since according to Wolf2K, a nuclear variant of a bomber would be dope to have in the mod.

Just a visual reference when it comes to the color scheme.

[rich remnant]

I thought that was a joke 💀

But ngl, it'd be cool

What would it do, tho? 🤔

[sly pond]

Read the replied message above.

Oh, and by the way, the bomb it drops will look like an actual bomb.

[sly pond]

Anyway, in a nutshell, it will be an army green flip plane sporting yellow radioactive signs instead of jolly roger skulls.

[rich remnant]

I think it's a neat idea! I still don't know how to balance the behaviour, tho 🤔
I do think that when you shoot the bombs they could insta-kill you
But what about when they drop?

Making them kill you then would be unfair

And killing the plane before it drops the nuke would be almost impossible hmm

[sly pond]

The bomb will be the opposite of mines.

You have to shoot to disarm the bomb, and do not let it touch grass, lest shall the player get screenwiped.

With this in mind, it pretty much gives a nice twist from a likely more common red bomber plane.

[strange summit]

Well done!!

though, could you make the frames go slightly faster?

[sly pond]

I can easily adjust the timing, so yeah.

[azure raft]

Remember this? There we're not the last alien level replaced into the swamp

[strange summit]

hm

I have an idea for level 3

What happens when water and lava merge in Minecraft?

[azure raft]

Just like a nether dimension

[strange summit]

well, I imagine some kind of rock formation around the lava pool

as I never liked how on the map lava and water just exist in one ocean

[azure raft]

This is a Chevo isle

[hardy glacier]

Wait, why is the lvl 5 not same like platypus 2?

[azure raft]

Because I didn't want to draw that level 5 is a horrible design. So i won't

[hardy glacier]

Ok, i think the lvl 5 gonna be inside cave?

[azure raft]

yup. that's what i said

[hardy glacier]

Ok

[sly pond]

OMFG, I can't believe we're about to get a Lua enemy bullet sample.

Using the open beta build to improve the flexibility between Lua entities...

[strange summit]

ayooo nice flame sprites!

I mean the usage

[sly pond]

This is made by Claymatic though.

[strange summit]

ah, I kinda remember a flamethrower being there

[modern fulcrum]

[solemn epoch]

it finally didnt do the sudden stop firing

[fleet pond]

This. I think it'll be fun to have the regular bomber in which you want to avoid the bomb, and the nuke bomber in which you want to focus on the bomb.

[sly pond]

Gotta love this hypothetical synergy between the two bombes.

[fleet pond]

Also, great job on the Bug!

[ionic stratus]

Yeah I love how you ended up using both sprite sheets in the end

so it looks up and down

[ionic stratus]

I will say I think it can be a bit bigger, it's def smaller than the original size wise

[fleet pond]

The details are so good, it makes it lively

Turning around, looking up and down

[sly pond]

We'll have to defer that to @strange summit

Also, I think the bug could use some more rotation frames.

[ionic stratus]

Yeah absolutely an improvement on the original

[ionic stratus]

Yeah I noticed that too, it does look a little framey

[sly pond]

Specially if the bug would animate super quickly.

[sly pond]

Bon, as you are tasked to redo the sprites in accordance with Greenness et. al., be sure to take note of the sprite sheet layout I have employed.

[ionic stratus]

I feel bad though, it already took them 3 hours to configure the rotation lol

[sly pond]

I actually feel her too.

[ionic stratus]

so def at her own pace

[sly pond]

Massive headpats to her...

[ionic stratus]

I think the foundation we have for the bug is already very solid

it just needs some edits

[sly pond]

I'm hoping that we are able to play a looping sound effect in a similar fashion to lightning as a Lua function.

[ionic stratus]

For the wing flaps I assume?

[sly pond]

Yes, the bug noises.

[ionic stratus]

In terms of sounds, I also thought we could add some pterodactyl sfx

so before it comes into the screen you can have that as tell

[sly pond]

So far, from what I have seen in the public beta, there is no Lua function for that in particular currently.

[sly pond]

In entities.json, you can give them the ability to play a sound effect upon spawning.

[ionic stratus]

Unfortunate

[ionic stratus]

At least we can do this though

it has to be only the first one of the bunch though, otherwise it'd probably be too annoying lol

[sly pond]

Actually, curious regarding the sound design for the fan project.

[sly pond]

We can configure the sound effect cooldown for that in audio.json.

[ionic stratus]

I see, good to know

[fleet pond]

Oh so kinda like how the virus spawn thing, a sort of warning sign for them spawning.

[ionic stratus]

Yeah pretty much

[fleet pond]

Seems good, if feasible a spawn sfx for only one of them and the flapping wings sfx would be nice fits.

[ionic stratus]

This is something I think even Platypus Reclayed is kinda lacking

Tells before something jumps into the screen

[sly pond]

Sound on spawn.

Or any other spawn telegraphs for that matter.

[fleet pond]

The first one to spawn would make the sound

[ionic stratus]

Yeah, that makes the most sense to me as well

we can even make it so the SFX sounds like it's coming from above

it's simple sound design stuff

[fleet pond]

if there are going to be any "scream" sfx's, let's make 'em good like this idea, lol

[ionic stratus]

Lol

"Lets use the girl scream sfx instead"

[sly pond]

Out of context moment

[ionic stratus]

If anyone here seen the film blow out

(Probably not, it's old)

Anyway, we can probably have onscreen SFX for them too besides the wings flapping

but it'd have to be pretty soft sfx so it doesn't become too annoying/reptitive

[fleet pond]

I see what you mean.

[sly pond]

Their SFX loops can stack up ridonculously when spawned in high numbers.

[fleet pond]

That would probably require a "random sound sfx" for a little scream, if intervals of sorts could even be controlled. But seems to start becoming a bit of a complex unpredictable task, depending on the number of spawns.

[static copper]

gotta remenber most of the time there like a ton of them

so a ton of sfx spawners

[ionic stratus]

Yeah...

again unless we limit it to only one of them

[fleet pond]

If it was one enemy, maybe.

[ionic stratus]

yeah that idea in general can be labelled as a maybe

[sly pond]

You know what, I think I have a far simpler solution.

[fleet pond]

That would require a separate entity?

[sly pond]

Just use the custom playsound level command I made in Lua.

I'll just forward it one moment.

[ionic stratus]

I think I'll try to look for SFX in a bit

[sly pond]

This handmade level command can play ANY sound effect however you like.

[static copper]

swarm siren

[fleet pond]

Hmm

Wouldn't this be too much effort for just one specific alien enemy? To balance things, we either have to adjust some alien-ish sfx's for other aliens as well, or try to simplify things overall.

Because some are dead silent currently.

[static copper]

playSound can be used elsewhere too, is pretty flexible

[ionic stratus]

This guy can def have a munching SFX

[fleet pond]

Oh yes, definitely.

[ionic stratus]

also some snake rattle sounds perhaps

[static copper]

good sfx can lead to a very polish appearance

[fleet pond]

I agree.

[sly pond]

My words exactly.

[fleet pond]

Just pointing out if one enemy becomes alive, all others deserve to as well.

Either that or all go silent.

[ionic stratus]

For sure

[fleet pond]

Balancing things.

[ionic stratus]

I mean, these enemies ARE alive

lol

[fleet pond]

Exactly.

[ionic stratus]

unlike the rest of the game

[sly pond]

In practice...

Ambient noise via playSound level command would be interesting, actually.

[ionic stratus]

I'm not sure what this enemy should sound like

It just spins

[static copper]

it would get muddied by the music and other sounds

[sly pond]

This is how to use this:
wait( 0); spawnEntity("entity": "playSound", "sound": "s_star1");

[sly pond]

True, I guess. :p

[fleet pond]

Oh so its controllable per enemy spawn

[ionic stratus]

Yeah in a more atmospheric game I feel like this would be more fitting

[fleet pond]

Well that's quite pratical, nice.

[sly pond]

That's right.

[ionic stratus]

Seems very flexible

much more so than how it was in the beginning 😛

[sly pond]

Funnily enough, the Lua code for it is actually simple as hell.

[ionic stratus]

the only issue seems to be looping sounds

[fleet pond]

Oof, yes.

[sly pond]

Precisely.

Like I said prior, there is no way to play a looping SFX.

[fleet pond]

Ah

[sly pond]

Ideally in a similar manner to lightning.

[ionic stratus]

Worst case scenario we just have to use some sfx for a certain amount of time, and then fade them into the background

[sly pond]

Sounds like a decent alternative.

[ionic stratus]

Yeah, hopefully in a future update Claymatic can address this though

I hope so at least

[fleet pond]

Spawn them with a lightning turret entity, which plays flapping birds sfx, the turret is invisble, the bullet is invisible. This is myself going back to old school alternatives, haha.

With a twist of the only new feature being a custom sfx.

[sly pond]

BTW, I realized the Flip Planes are now the first enemies in this project to use one of the all-new Lua functions.

Well, the ones already on GitHub.

I already updated some of the data and behavior files.

[ionic stratus]

Really love how flamethrower flip plane ended up btw

[sly pond]

In fact, I also organized entities.json and entities_turrets.json.

[sly pond]

I added categories, which go as follows:

• For SFX Add-on Cross Compatibility
• Lua-fied Reclayed Entities
• Returning Platypus II Entities
• New Platypus II Entities
• Platypus II Bosses

[fleet pond]

Has a missile hatch turret entity been made?

This was a struggle back then, sprite animation wise.

[sly pond]

I already made a boat missile launcher entity, but not the train missile hatch entity yet.

[fleet pond]

Gotcha.

I see that animation is more flexible now, so I believe this issue could likely be fixed. The hatch would open and close way too quickly.

[ionic stratus]

Yeahhh I remember that

[sly pond]

I reckon, by deriving the source code from the boat missile launcher, one could be able to make a train missile launcher.

[fleet pond]

Oh yes, even the missile squid.

Which is why having bases for those is REALLY helpful.

[sly pond]

Just a random tangent, but I think I tend to edit a lot on MAKYUNI's to do list spreadsheets lately, more so than the same person who made it in the first place.

Regarding the missile squid's cannon sprite, will it be static or animated?

[fleet pond]

Well, if it can be animated, even better, I'd say.

It would function as a warning to the player

For quicker reaction

Like many turrets currently

[sly pond]

Actually, will the missile squid's barrel be reworked visually, to fit better with the telegraphed missile launch?

[fleet pond]

Well, the barrel I used is just a thinned out cannon barrel, heh.

[sly pond]

LOL, I see.

[static copper]

i remenber the missile squid using the missile hatch, or maybe i'm miss remenbering

[sly pond]

Can't confirm.

[fleet pond]

It has a thinner barrel launcher, which isn't animated in Platypus 2.

[fleet pond]

The hatch is only used by Trucks.

And Boss 1?

[sly pond]

It's also static.

[rich remnant]

Can confirm

(Thanks Psychosquid) 🙏

[sly pond]

Greetings Maki

[rich remnant]

Hoi :D

I tend to go to the list like "damn I must add this new- oh it's already in" xD

Truly a time saver

[fleet pond]

The way the barrel could work is similar to cannon barrel, animation wise.

[sly pond]

I have a habit of writing down things real time, like whenever someone already does something.

[rich remnant]

I think it was like that on a test design by someone here
But the original one uses a simple vertical barrel sprite

[fleet pond]

I don't recall tests like that, hm.

[sly pond]

Since I also made a softcoded big cannon gun, I can use its animation system for that as well.

[fleet pond]

Yeah, and just swap to a missile pretty much.

[sly pond]

The slim barrel you made lol

[fleet pond]

Yes xd

I got inspired by their methods in Platypus 2, haha.

[strange summit]

-# designed for (14.29 FPS) according to exgif.

[strange summit]

Thanks

[solemn epoch]

our fav pseudo bug creature

[fleet pond]

It looks really cute too, lol.

I love that. I am vey inclined to this alien art design style. The fact they are supposed to be aliens, so that would probably mean menacing, but are actually cute. Feels very Platypus-goofy and I am all for it, haha.

[ionic stratus]

Why isn't this guy the protagonist tbh

Lol

[strange summit]

-# someone make it a player ship xD

[ionic stratus]

Lol actually probably very doable

[fleet pond]

Alright, future Platypus 2 Reclayed Add-on everyone!

Recommended to use it for the first 4 Levels, wink wink. Don't attack your own, though!

[ionic stratus]

Platypus 2 but from the other perspective

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HFI_khl-uQM

I think these sounds are pretty fitting for it

although considering it's from a youtube video, quality is probably not great

but this is the direction at least

[fleet pond]

The first sound seems to be fitting for their spawn. Something like that at least, imo.

[ionic stratus]

Yeah, agreed

this is pretty much what I had in mind too

[sly pond]

@strange summit, it would be appreciated if you provided more tilted sprite sheets.

Two tilted sheets aren't enough imo.

Perhaps two more tilts inbetween the two already given would suffice.

Anyway...

[strange summit]

-#

[fleet pond]

Ooo, they took their growth vitamins.

[sly pond]

Headpats for you anyhow.

[ionic stratus]

Yeah size def seems better

[fleet pond]

Yup

[ionic stratus]

https://uppbeat.io/sfx/category/dinosaur/pterodactyl

There are some great SFX here

would anyone happen to have a subscription?

I doubt it but I'll ask just in case

Okay I got it

we just need bird squeals

they sound similar enough

and I can get those easily

Let me know which one is the best

1st and 2nd fit the most I think

[ionic stratus]

Since bug alien is smaller than a Pterodactyl I actually like these sounds more than this

[ionic stratus]

After listening to it more times I think this one is the best

[last ivy]

HOLY SMOOTH!!!

[ionic stratus]

Added the SFX to github as "bug screech.ogg"

[clear snow]

"They're worse than Boomerangs!"

[static copper]

reminds me to the annoying bird that flies nearby my house

[sly pond]

I wonder what bird species in particular.

[static copper]

i dunno, but they screech all day

[ionic stratus]

A hawk maybe?

lol

[static copper]

probably

[solemn epoch]

this one is annoyingly alright

[solemn epoch]

this one extrudes too much america 🏈🏈🏈🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅

[ionic stratus]

Yeah only the second one is good lol

the other ones sound too much like birds

[fleet pond]

The one you picked is fine.

[ionic stratus]

We can always change the SFX later anyway, if we're dissatisfied with it

[static copper]

we can always replace every sfx with girl scream anyways

[fleet pond]

Oh no

[solemn epoch]

spamming them pterobugs would be fun to hear lmaoo

[sly pond]

donnykurniawan be like...
Write that down

[solemn epoch]

eb0y would very absolutely obviously disagree

[sly pond]

Imagine pushing the devs on making an april fools patch that does exactly that.

[static copper]

add on that replaces every sound with girl scream

[sly pond]

Peak addon concept

If gamemoretv's earrape addon called PNG Invaders isn't enough.

[ionic stratus]

I'm curious though did you prefer the youtube one

[solemn epoch]

platypus 2 reclayed : re-aaaaahhh!!!

[ionic stratus]

I think it was a bit too extreme in retrospect

[solemn epoch]

actually scared to play that mod cuz it could bust my speakers 🥹

[sly pond]

Ah, I feel you.

[ionic stratus]

I think there's a better SFX I can get from here

but yeah, don't really wanna pay for a subscription...

[ionic stratus]

@strange summit I think the worm should be a bit bigger as well

looks a little bit bigger imo

[strange summit]

okay...
the Reclayed sprites are definitely NOT 4.5 times the size of classic ones then.

[ionic stratus]

Yeah I guess so

they did 4k scan them iirc

for Reclayed

so they must be very big

[strange summit]

well,
I always render the sprites the exact size they're supposed to be

[ionic stratus]

Is there no way to change the sprite scale within the game itself?

is it entirely dependent on the size of the sprite?

@sly pond perhaps you could answer

[ionic stratus]

It might be that there's some way to change the scale ingame internally

[static copper]

i do recomend rendering again in a higher size

to avoid quality loss

[ionic stratus]

Maybe 1:4.5 is more accurate for the original Platypus than Platypus 2 as well

it should theoretically be the same though

[strange summit]

sprite.
updated.
frames.
added.

-# that's not a mockup.

Ok.
What resolution would you like the worm to be?

[ionic stratus]

if it was 4.5, maybe try increasing it to 5.5?

[strange summit]

okiii

[ionic stratus]

I think I have a good idea

for how you can measure it

take the Reclayed Platypus ship sprite and compare it to the size of the worm

[strange summit]

oki

[ionic stratus]

and see if it's similar to the og in terms of size

like side by side in different layers

[strange summit]

please tell me, is the bug perfected?

[ionic stratus]

I mean I think so

you even added extra frames for it going up and down lol

I guess it's worth double checking the size again compared to the reclayed player ship, but to my eyes at least it looked perfect

[strange summit]

[ionic stratus]

Lol

I like the name of the emote

[strange summit]

I think I'm done for today, I just couldn't let myself stop and rest until the sprites were adjusted.

[ionic stratus]

Have an easy weekend

I guess it's my fault you couldn't rest, sorry about that

[strange summit]

-# no it's not, please don't blame yourself

[ionic stratus]

I see, well regardless I really appreciate your dedication 🙏

At the end of the day the mod will really benefit from it

but yeah, you could take your time more

don't worry about getting things done as soon as possible too much 🙂

[bronze venture]

Portuguese...

[fleet pond]

Yes

[ionic stratus]

I see

[fleet pond]

So only by testing in game one can tell the size

[ionic stratus]

so in the case of Platypus 2 at least, 4.5 is probably not the right size

[fleet pond]

Yeah, probably bigger

Like you said, they did render in 4K after all.

[ionic stratus]

It might be closer to 5.0 or 5.5

[fleet pond]

And the gameplay screen is much wider

Likely, yeah

[ionic stratus]

Bonnie should probably have all the sprites in a similar size to how the bug is now

[fleet pond]

Oh yes, after getting a solid size to base on, the burden is eliminated.

[sly pond]

OMFG, I just woke up.

FYI I am from Asia, specifically in the southeast.

Right now, I'm halfway toward 6:00 am.

[sly pond]

But anyway, I totally agree with Tar regarding sprite scaling.

That should be a habit for most graphic artists out there.

[sly pond]

Updated bug animation in action

Haha, bugs (almost) everywhere on GitHub.

[ionic stratus]

Bug should be the mascot of this mod

[ionic stratus]

Also I just had an idea...

what if they shot bullets in higher difficulties?

[sly pond]

Will they shoot in a similar manner to saucers?

[ionic stratus]

I guess so yeah

in sporadic intervals

[sly pond]

Or in other words, randomized fire patterns?

[ionic stratus]

yeah that's what I meant

that could be redundant though, since they're already heading in the direction of the player

but maybe?

[sly pond]

Not if the bullets they fire are faster than their flight speed.

[ionic stratus]

That's true

maybe it could be squid bullets then

[sly pond]

I wonder where they'll come from...
Oh wait, that's right. They breathe bullets from their mouth.

[ionic stratus]

Yeah lol

[ionic stratus]

But yeah it honestly does look perfect now imo

[sly pond]

By this point, Bonnie may take a well-deserved rest from that buggy shenanigans.

[ionic stratus]

For sure

[sly pond]

Either way, good night according to your time zone.

Meanwhile, I am already preparing for vacation.

[ionic stratus]

Have fun!

but yeah good night(day for you I suppose)!

[sly pond]

LOL,

[umbral ridge]

well i was able to install paint.net

tho it's upscale is horrible likely i have a png file

that isn't great with upscale

[solemn epoch]

this will be our mascot tbh

[sly pond]

-# Noice

[ionic stratus]

Nice

[sly pond]

Some of you might have noticed my messages posted in #😀┃chat

[umbral ridge]

So umm Psycho about that well the modded guns

like did u and your buds tell the Claymatic about this modding feature

Since it's a wet dream

with new firearms instead of the twin gun

[sly pond]

You already did so to the thread.

[sinful musk]

🐤

[sly pond]

Before I even start going to college, I have something to show you...

We now have a turret that keeps on firing even when out of sight. 🔥

It uses the new reclayed_turret.lua.

@solemn epoch, you're gonna love this.

[solemn epoch]

im a noob at dodging so we'll see 🫠

[solemn epoch]

replace all ordinary turrets with this one

[sly pond]

Should be easy actually.

Oh wait, it already is braindead easy.

[umbral ridge]

Well one of the Claymatic team told me that custom weapons for ships is too complex and risky, so yes Platypus 2 Reclayed will stick with t1 for now until a new update released with those weapon types

[last ivy]

FINALLY!!!

[sly pond]

I can finally recreate Squid Mother turret, which is exactly what we will need for the custom switching turrets for your miniboss idea. :3

[strange summit]

-# Hold up, didn't I assemble the final sprite sheet?

• I made the first sprite sheet
• PSquid suggested a rearrangement
• I re-rendered all the sprites, giving additional frames, then assembled them

I consider that done

[umbral ridge]

oh gosh

they will burn my face off

[sly pond]

I actually assembled the final spritesheet too.

Mainly to get the tilting animation to work.

In fact, there are 5 separate spritesheets, each having their own tilt angle.

[strange summit]

oh, sorry then

[sly pond]

No problem

[ionic stratus]

Wouldn't it be the most correct to say you both assembled it then?

[strange summit]

ya

[ionic stratus]

I think I'll change it then

[bronze venture]

Turret Ship, when he's a Pyro

[ionic stratus]

Oh that's great

It means the flamethrower won't randomly stop now

it'll shoot consistently now like the original

[strange summit]

-# for the record, I don't want to brag not take credit for the tweaks made by someone else, I wanted to emphasise on how much effort I've put into this, especially the animations and rendering

[ionic stratus]

Nah dw I think you deserve it

it ended up being a very ambitious sprite sheet for 1 enemy lol

[sly pond]

Totally makes sense actually.

[strange summit]

also, the rollship's status can be set to done imo

[ionic stratus]

I don't think anybody did code for it though

at least yet

Visually though absolutely

[strange summit]

ah right, I forgot about the code xD

[ionic stratus]

Yeah, when the enemy is fully functioning then we set it to done

I'll look over the list in a sec

and see if anything else needs to be changed

[ionic stratus]

Do you guys really feel like we need to remake this enemy for the mod?

I feel like the purple gunship from Reclayed could probably replace it

I'd it's either we replace it or make a new behavior for the enemy, in it's original incarnation it's a pretty underwhelming enemy imo

[ionic stratus]

Considering it's called "Lasership", maybe it potentially shoots out lightning esque shots?

[strange summit]

I like that!

though I suggest maybe painting it teal? as ther already are purple gunships

-# I could recolour it

[ionic stratus]

Yeah, I think so too

[ionic stratus]

If you feel like it, go for it!

[strange summit]

oki!

[sly pond]

It could fire a laser beam in quick bursts.

[ionic stratus]

What kind of laser beam, do you mean a new type of bullet?

because that's kind of what I had in mind too

[sly pond]

Pretty much so.

[ionic stratus]

Alright so @strange summit hold on with the recolor

it might not be teal in that case

[sly pond]

Welp, I imagine it shouldn't be that hard to make a Lua script out of it.

The beam

[cobalt sorrel]

What kind of beam?? Just asking.

[ionic stratus]

It just needs to be a long bullet right

[ionic stratus]

that would probably do it for the most part

[sly pond]

Yeah.

[ionic stratus]

Yeah this seems like a good way to do it

we could probably use the same inspiration

and heck, maybe once we have control over player bullets, it could be a weapon type

[sly pond]

We would likely add some sort of telegraph animation.

[ionic stratus]

yeah, a tell before the shot comes out

good call

[sly pond]

In which case, the charging animation.

[ionic stratus]

It also might be better if it didn't use a turret gun

since that gives off the implication that it should rotate

so a squid gun would probably be more appropriate fo example

[strange summit]

will it remain purple?

[ionic stratus]

Nah it def shouldn't remain purple

imo

since we already have a purple gunship from Reclayed

I don't think it should be teal either though, since it's not a lightning shot

we have to see how the laser bullet type comes out

and decide from there

[strange summit]

oki, can I be the one to recolor it in the future?

[ionic stratus]

Sure thing

I'll add a reservation for you in the list

[strange summit]

thankyu

[bronze venture]

hmm...

I think the reclayed purple gunship is slightly larger than the gunship

[strange summit]

yup

[ionic stratus]

Yeah, we just talked about that, lol

it needs a recolor

even if the reclayed ship is bigger, it still looks too similar as well

[bronze venture]

sorry, I didn't read it lol

[ionic stratus]

It's fine lol

In general I am not a fan of the lasership design

it's not similar enough to a gunship to just be a simple recolor imo

the cannon should be different at least

[strange summit]

yup

that design looks kinda lazy

[bronze venture]

can I pet GREENCAT?

[ionic stratus]

Sure I guess lol

[ionic stratus]

Yeah, agreed

for the flamethrower gunship I think it works well

since it's still pretty similar to a regular gunship

but the lasership, nah

[sly pond]

Agreed.

[ionic stratus]

I think I have an idea for a redesign

I'll try to make a mockup

and you guys tell me what you think

[solemn epoch]

demote reclayed's super-gunship to platy2 lasership, and make reclayed's super-gunship shoot lightning

rotateable lightning perhaps

[sly pond]

evilgeio0999 approved.

[somber knoll]

So trueth

[hollow gate]

Level 5 = Blaster MK II

[ionic stratus]

Laser ship redesign for example

[strange summit]

AYO
Callisto suggested that once

[ionic stratus]

Not a perfect photoshop btw I know, just so we can settle on a design

[strange summit]

btw, how is it possible that the star lightning is angled?

[ionic stratus]

I remember before the Lua days Wolf had issues with that

doing rotating lightning

[strange summit]

dang

[ionic stratus]

maybe it's more doable now though?

[strange summit]

I've just checked that:

you know those funny obstacle game where you're standing around a rotating object and you gotta avoid it?

https://tenor.com/view/obstacle-course-kid-fail-gif-5430113

Callisto told me once "how about you make a laser that can rotate for the player to avoid?"

with this game in mind

[ionic stratus]

Lol imagine a gunship with a turret that instead of a gun it has a giant baseball bat that hits you

[strange summit]

xD

B O N K S H I P

[ionic stratus]

That's potentially an idea, not sure if it fits this mod exactly though

I did have an idea of domeships that are connected together by lightning

not sure if it exactly fits what you said though

[strange summit]

Imma cook with this idea

though I dunno how to code.

[ionic stratus]

Same...

[strange summit]

so I'm kinda dependent here

[strange summit]

-# so I'm not alone, yay

[ionic stratus]

Anyway guys let me know if this design is good for Lasership

I kinda feel like barrel from the thruster is fitting here, but maybe some would disagree

It's either that or we need an artist to come up with a new design for the gun

[strange summit]

tbh, looks cool, though could you swap green for yellow?

[strange summit]

-# could I maybe try my own take?

[ionic stratus]

Go for it

[ionic stratus]

Yellow is too close to orange imo

which is the flamethrower gunship

so I settled on blue

[strange summit]

no no no

[ionic stratus]

Blue and green are the only gunship colors we didn't use

[strange summit]

I meant to leave it Blue-Yellow

[ionic stratus]

Ah I see what you mean

[strange summit]

🟦🟢 --> 🟦🟡

[ionic stratus]

I'll give it a shot

[strange summit]

what app do you use?

[ionic stratus]

I kinda feel blue and green looks nicer though

Photoshop

[strange summit]

maybe, we'll see

[ionic stratus]

Also if you do it, I personally thought about going with a technology/futuristic motif

[strange summit]

designed by aliens?

[ionic stratus]

Yeah I guess so lol

that's probably the most fitting lol isn't it

[strange summit]

it is

btw, are you using Rotate Colours?

[ionic stratus]

I edited the hue

which is kinda rotate colors

I suppose

[strange summit]

[strange summit]

also, now that I look at it
if you want it to stay green (hence your name xDD)
you could make those 2 things the same shade of green as the window, that would be very cool too

[ionic stratus]

Yeah I'll def do that

I'll try to yellow first though

Yeah the green looked better imo

[strange summit]

both are cool now

but yeah, the green is much better than it was before

[bronze venture]

what is that? a new enemy?

[ionic stratus]

Trying to redesign the lasership

Since it's going to use a new behavior in the mod most likely

[ionic stratus]

Similar to this

[ionic stratus]

This is the scrapped "magnetic laser" powerup for Reclayed

Perhaps the lasership bullet should have the same color

In that case I may change the green to this

Also maybe the lasership laser should actually magnetize the player to it?

[static copper]

Depends on what degree of magnetize you want

[strange summit]

I understand it as "pull the player towards the laser"

slightly of course

so the player would have to be on the move to avoid getting dragged

[ionic stratus]

Yeah, pretty much what Bonnie said

[umbral ridge]

Yep that's the Death Star from Zhark

Because you can't shoot with it

The most recent is REMAM

[umbral ridge]

Ah gosh it will be Strange Attraction item from isaac trust me that item sucks without that Ludo

Was it or not like the one that can well magnetize enemies when firing lasers

[ionic stratus]

Yeah I play Isaac lol

Maybe the inspiration came from there

[ionic stratus]

Isaac also has enemies that pull you in

[static copper]

It wasn't it was a laser that bended toward enemies

But it was a bit too complicated and so scrapped

[strange summit]

ya, I know it's different from the actual unused power-up

[ionic stratus]

Ah so kind of like the lightning powerup in chicken invaders

[strange summit]

or Palpatine in Angry Birds Star Wars II

[ionic stratus]

I didn't remember that lol

interesting

I played angry birds star wars but I don't remember playable palpatine

Anyway, guess we should just keep it to the basic laser idea

[strange summit]

it was in the AB SW II

where villains had their own campaign

[ionic stratus]

Ahhh makes sense

Anyway I will say Eb0y brought up a good point

Zhark had a laser powerup

[strange summit]

ya

but since it was unused

then it was assigned to nothing, so you could shoot nothing

[ionic stratus]

Maybe we can take inpiration

from Zhark

and make the laser red

for lasership

[strange summit]

maybe

[ionic stratus]

Also @rich remnant would you be interested in making it?

We could potentially have the laser for both zhark reclayed and platypus 2 reclayed

I am asking since you've already made the original laser for Zhark

[static copper]

I actually had plans for making a watered down version of the regular lightning, but rotable

They are for casinopolis, but it resources could be used here

[rich remnant]

I wouldn't mind, tho the sprite would be very simple lol

[static copper]

Ah yeah

[rich remnant]

It's literally a white straight line with red edges

[static copper]

And circle

[rich remnant]

True

Either way idk if the laser will be kept in Zhark Reclayed
Lightning is already different in Zhark Legacy now

[ionic stratus]

I see lol

I think that's fine, it should be very simple imo

[ionic stratus]

Although perhaps Tar tary's version would work as well

[rich remnant]

I'm fine with whatever tbh 👍
If Tary wants to work on it I'm fine with it too

But if I'm needed, make sure to let me know again 👍

[ionic stratus]

Alrighty, fair enough

in that case I'd say we'll use Tar tary's version, and if it doesn't fit we'll see what we do

[strange summit]

hey, quick question
do you know how to model a ripped piece of vehicle, clay style?
like I have a complete vehicle, now I want to rip a piece without it looking... mesh-y

like the crease tool, but cutting off the part in the end

[ionic stratus]

I'm not super well versed in 3d modelling lol, but perhaps someone else here can answer

[strange summit]

I hope so

-# wait, now that I check the og sprites, looks like it was at least partially done in a photo editor...

[fleet pond]

This enemy is redundant, yes. Probably should just use Reclayed's.

At least in it's vanilla Platypus 2 appearences. An actual "lasership" variant could be interesting as well for other spawns.

Just careful with the color of the new gunship variant, as of now it looks too similar to Level 5's Podship.

[ionic stratus]

True, I didn't think about that

it probably should just be green then

that's the only primary color that we didn't use for gunships lol

[sly pond]

Green is actually secondary color, but whatever.

[static copper]

Primary for light

[ionic stratus]

Well whatever, you get the point lol

[fleet pond]

I think this color works nicely (for either the ship or the laser)

[ionic stratus]

Perhaps, I'm a little worried it's too similar to lightning

then again claymatic were going to do it as well

so maybe it's fine

I'm thinking we either use that color or make it red like in Zhark

[strange summit]

maybe red?

[strange summit]

ngl, the colour is kinda similar to lightning power-up

[rich remnant]

Make it yellow

Jk idk

[strange summit]

hm

not bad idea

[rich remnant]

Red might be hard to see if it's used on level 3

[last ivy]

I have a concept:

It's a Laser thing (Same as Lightning) it could pass through, but it has Higher Damage, but slow to shoot, it's like a Recharge Cannon

[fleet pond]

Hm, maybe

I was thinking more of a mix of green and blue, and not the lightning's sky blue.

Maybe some color from this palette could work for something.

Credits to Crepe, this laser design and color also looks solid. And, like Makyuni mentioned, to better contrast with Level 3, a bright laser color is recommended, I'd say.

[ionic stratus]

Seems like we might be going all green after all

fitting for me I suppose

[ionic stratus]

We're talking about an enemy behavior though

so damage won't really matter

perhaps we can consider this bullet type for a powerup though

once we have the ability to change player bullets

[rich remnant]

imo this should be a nasty dif. enemy tho

and we could keep the regular laser one from Reclayed for easier diffs.

[rich remnant]

unfortunately...

#1478005601970815127 message

but who knows... maybe they'll change their minds ||(hopium)||

[ionic stratus]

Hmm maybe, I don't like how the original enemy is just a squid on top of a gunship though

[rich remnant]

LOL now that you mention it, fair enough

[ionic stratus]

It's also too easy imo

in the original platypus 2

[rich remnant]

was bout to say that heh

maybe if we wanna try sth more original, we could make an in-between variant

not a P2 lasership, obviously

but an in-between of red gunship and super gunship

basically a purple gunship, the same size and health as a red one, and with one laser cannon instead of two

[ionic stratus]

Perhaps, I'm not against that idea

this could probably be something we can change between difficulties

maybe in easier difficulties, super gunship just has 1 cannon

[rich remnant]

agreed!

sounds good to me

[ionic stratus]

Then we can probably go for both ideas

The super gunship idea and the new laser bullet type

[rich remnant]

I like having both options

[ionic stratus]

https://tenor.com/view/the-road-to-el-dorado-both-both-is-good-gif-8304204

[rich remnant]

the gif that perfectly captured my thoughts hehe

speaking of Nasty enemies, I'll try working on Nuke Plane when I can, and also Psychosquid's Shield Tick

sadly my inspiration and time are variable, but I come back to it from time to time, so no worries

[ionic stratus]

No worries, take your time!

Looking forward to how they come out

[rich remnant]

Ty!! :D

[fleet pond]

You mean Reclayed's Purple Gunship, but shooting just one laser (but same size as red one)?

[fleet pond]

Also yeah, I felt this way too when thinking of what to do. Why choose only one when we can have both, hehe.

[ionic stratus]

Yeah, I think I will write this on the list so we don't forget

@strange summit I think we settled on a green recolor for the gunship if you want to make it

I can also continue with the gunship variant I started making, but I remember you wanted to do the recolor

[fleet pond]

Oh

[ionic stratus]

Probably similar to this

[fleet pond]

I was about to post a recolor attempt I did, well it's just to show what I had in mind.

[ionic stratus]

Oh lol

[strange summit]

oki, thankies!

[ionic stratus]

you can still post it

[fleet pond]

Yeah, Bonnie can still work on it, it's just to show the color I was kind of inclined with this variant.

Something like this

[strange summit]

go on, I'm looking forward to seeing it

[strange summit]

nice!

[ionic stratus]

Too bright but the idea is there

lol

[fleet pond]

yeah, brightness is a mess, idea is a bright green

[ionic stratus]

yeah I think color scheme is good

just need to reduce the exposure a bit lol

[fleet pond]

This is what the magnet power up and Crepe's laser inspired me.

Yeah, definitely.

[ionic stratus]

Also did you guys like the donuts from my version?

I think they might overcomplicate the design a bit lol

but I did vibe with it

[fleet pond]

this also has a white outline because I didn't bother much with background removal xd, once again just to show my idea.

Oh the donuts

[ionic stratus]

No worries lol, my version was pretty much the same

just showcasing design ideas

I think the donuts will be more fitting for something else perhaps

[fleet pond]

Maybe

[ionic stratus]

keeping the design simple is preferrable

in this case

it just needs a different gun

[fleet pond]

They would stand out too much? If it makes sense, within the gunship world.

All gunships are just recolors basically.

[ionic stratus]

Yeah I think green is the way to go

[fleet pond]

Oh yeah

Turret can be new

design

[ionic stratus]

yeah, I dislike the fact that it's a turret that doesn't rotate

Bonnie said they'd be working on a new turret design

[fleet pond]

could always be a squid gun or something similar in that sense at least

since they were using a glorified squid turret behaviour anyway lol

but new could be good too, yes

[ionic stratus]

I tried adding a squid gun instead, but it didn't really fit the shape imo

maybe someone who's talented with photoshop could make it work

but for me it was too much of a headache lol

[fleet pond]

Gotcha. Yeah, a linear gun that doesn't rotate is what fits best for this enemy.

[ionic stratus]

I think something similar to the umbrella weapon

for boss 5

a tiny precise gun

because it's like a concentrated shot lol

Either way, we'll see what Bonnie comes up with

(I'm just throwing ideas I had in my head lol)

[fleet pond]

Speaking of ideas, I have one or two. The enemy laser could either charge up (you hear sound of charging, to predict that it's going to shoot it's beam soon) or visually a light starts popping up to shoot the beam, or both. I know the charge up sfx is likely possible with lua, don't know about the visuals though.

I got inspired by the Satellite from Heavy Weapon for this.

Even though it's a vertical enemy in that game, the satellite charges the laser (you can hear an sfx) and then shoots it.

[ionic stratus]

It def needs some kind of tell

[ionic stratus]

I think both a sound and a visual tell

[fleet pond]

Yeah, with a lightning trash can you can tell it'll shoot it's lightning because of the unfolding pattern of the turret, for example.

It's always good that every enemy can be "predictatbe" or "avoidable", if it makes sense.

It's the good design approach, imo.

[ionic stratus]

Yeah, with pink ships there is a visual tell for the lightning though

[fleet pond]

And since it's a completely different turret behaviour, going for a new sound and visual warning could be a solid idea, imo.

[fleet pond]

Oh yeah, those already do that!

So it is possible.

[ionic stratus]

Yeah so reclayed already has a countermeasure for it

[fleet pond]

Just adding a sfx to make it unique then.

[ionic stratus]

for non trashcan enemies

[fleet pond]

Yup, that's very clever design, otherwise one could never tell when it would shoot, only if you really know the timing by memory.

[ionic stratus]

We can actually probably just recolor this graphic in green

and it'll do the job

[fleet pond]

Yeah, yeah

laser charge up sfx example

And this is Heavy Weapon's Satellite Laser sfx.

[ionic stratus]

This one honestly sounds perfect

I think the shooting sfx should be something more simple though

since it's a short burst laser

[fleet pond]

Gotcha.

[sly pond]

Worth noting that we are still unable to play looping SFX.

[fleet pond]

In that game, it is a prolonged laser after all.

But yeah charge up seems to be fine, I think I'll add it to the Hub

[ionic stratus]

To be fair I don't think this enemy needs looping sfx

[sly pond]

Right

[fleet pond]

Oh yeah it doesn't, it will behave similarly to a Squid Gun/Lightning.

so burts of sfx at each prediction+shot

[ionic stratus]

I think it should be like the original example psychosquid posted

a really short burst laser

[sly pond]

Oh btw, has anyone noticed the changes I silently made on GitHub?

[fleet pond]

Astrobatics-ish yeah, seems better.

[ionic stratus]

I saw you organized something

but I didn't see exactly what, lol

[sly pond]

I actually got the damage effects to work on custom enemies.

The shards and parachuters coming out of the enemy as it changes damage frames.

[ionic stratus]

Oh great!

[fleet pond]

Ah, I assume they didn't have those details before yet.

That's great!

[sly pond]

Prior to the beta, although the function for shards on hurt as plausible, literally no one figured out on how to make it work successfully.

[sly pond]

As you can see, the bottom Un dropped shards, except that they are inconsistent from the original.

Also, that parachuter was being wonky. ;P

[ionic stratus]

He decends really quickly in the video lol

I don't remember it being that fast in the og game

[fleet pond]

Probably had pockets full of fruit.

[ionic stratus]

so I assume now that's been fixed

[fleet pond]

Laser Charge Up sfx added.

I will look through more laser sfx's from many repositories.

[ionic stratus]

For the shooting we probably need just the classic laser sfx

You know the "pshiu" thing

[fleet pond]

Like this?

[ionic stratus]

Yeah def in this style

[fleet pond]

(from Atomaders btw)

[ionic stratus]

I would say something with a bit more of a bass though

but this is def the direction

[fleet pond]

So something clean like that one, and not static-ish like the lightning, correct?

But more bassy

Actually I can just edit the bass of that one, lol

[ionic stratus]

Yeah, pretty much something in the style you just posted, just with a bit of a stronger impact

[ionic stratus]

Also an option lol

We can also combine sfx btw

that's usually what good sound design comes down to

[fleet pond]

another sfx

I wasn't satisfied with the bass editing of the previous one.

[sly pond]

Zuma

[fleet pond]

So I went for another search

Actually got that one from Peggle, lol.

Is it the same sfx

[sly pond]

PopCap likes to reuse SFX, LMAO.

[ionic stratus]

Def the best one so far

[fleet pond]

I see, lol.

Yeah bassier like you said.

[ionic stratus]

Yeah, I think this pretty much fits

[fleet pond]

Oke, if satisfied I'll also add it to the Hub.

[ionic stratus]

I didn't realize we could take sfx from other games lol

perhaps that's what I should've done for bug too

[sly pond]

LOL, because of this?

[fleet pond]

Are Reclayed's sfx all in stereo?

None in mono, right?

[ionic stratus]

I don't see why they would be

[fleet pond]

Just to be sure.

The charge up sfx I sent is in mono, if all sfx is in stereo I'll edit to stereo.

[sly pond]

They should be audible on both directions.

[fleet pond]

Oke, will update then.

Updated and added laser beam shot sfx

Here's an example of them following eachother.

I think it fits very well!

[ionic stratus]

Yeah, works very well

Although you might want to fade out the second sfx since it cuts off

[rich remnant]

yes
but also with a different turret, obviously

[fleet pond]

What about behaviour, will it use Reclayed's or like it is in Platypus 2, coming from the right?

[bronze venture]

Hello

[rich remnant]

I'm fine with whatever

Maybe making it come from the right would be cooler

As a gunship counterpart

[sly pond]

Improved pathfinding of green fish fighters...

Now they actually arc towards you.

Let me know if you want the green fish to have sharper turns.

[static copper]

Incredible

I wonder how you made it

[sly pond]

I used parts of the reclayed_turret.lua

[static copper]

Cool

[sly pond]

Quite satisfying that the green fish code improvements ended up having less lines of code than the previous.

Anyhow, the updated greenFishFighter.lua can now be found on GitHub.

[fleet pond]

Makes it more challenging, nice!

[sly pond]

Thank you reclayed_turret.lua for bringing us a far more efficient targeting system. ^^

[strange summit]

https://tenor.com/view/xwing-fighter-star-wars-gif-14735491

[bronze venture]

Fighter!

[ionic stratus]

I think considering we're basing the 1 turret one on the super gunship, it should use Reclayed's behavior

Otherwise it might get a bit confusing

for the green lasership, we can have it come from the right since it might as well be a brand new enemy

[ionic stratus]

Looks great!
I wanted to ask btw, is there a way to make them not shoot?

[sly pond]

Yes.

[fleet pond]

They are probably in nasty.

[ionic stratus]

I feel like for harder difficulties it's nice that they'd shoot, but maybe for easier ones it'd be better if they don't

[fleet pond]

Also, good point yeah.

[sly pond]

However, I want a consensus as to which difficulties in particular will they fire.

[ionic stratus]

Nasty for sure

Hard... maybe they should shoot but less frequently?

the other difficulties they shouldn't shoot imo

[sly pond]

If we settle with hard, I reckon they'll only shoot once.

Then on expert, up to two times.

[fleet pond]

Hard seems to be a good starting point, agreed.

[ionic stratus]

I think that works

[fleet pond]

Yeah

And Nasty they shoot 80.000.000 times 😈

[sly pond]

i think we should make it like this
-# (so i can definitely steal this for my own mod oops )

[umbral ridge]

HELL NA!

[sly pond]

Reminds me of one of @primal salmon's submissions on Design an Enemy Competition.

[umbral ridge]

I WANT THIS SHIP TO WRONG SIDE OUT!

[strange summit]

I'd love that

as I mentioned, Callisto suggested me such idea as welll

[sly pond]

Sprite rotations should be possible, but IDK if the center of rotation can be offset.

[strange summit]

since I made my Minelayer have the lightning turrets, the Big Pink Ship is kinda boring now

[strange summit]

well, there are some ways to fix that

that would be kinda space-wasting tho

unless dual laser is planned

[sly pond]

Also, insanely large spritesheets will fail to load, as the game can't keep up.

[strange summit]

hm

-# I remember mine loading a very large sprite

anyways, we don't want that

[sly pond]

We can't get away bloating the file size.

[strange summit]

yup

as far as I understand, this allows us to recreate something like lightning starfish pattern?
(fixed rotation)

but not certain if that would let us make the thing spin properly
(the whole thing with pivot)

[umbral ridge]

@sly pond Seriously this can be a problum with laptops like my Probook 450 3G

like if it fails to load or too long to load then it's only playable on a New Laptop

like with REMAM

[strange summit]

ya, we clearly want to avoid things like that

[umbral ridge]

because the remam file size is so HUGE that New Laptop is required to even play

[strange summit]

-# why am I not surprised about the filesize

could you remind me if there's a way to determine x and y location without trial-and-error way?

[solemn epoch]

ahhhhh alright

[solemn epoch]

remam is basically the most fatass mod in size cuz they combine any available mods

[sly pond]

Editing codes on mobile is kinda a nice convenience whenever I am out of reach with my computer.

Anyway, green fish should no longer be firing on Regular mode or lower.

By default, the green fish will pursue the player for 150 ticks (can be adjusted further via a level command argument), and during that time of pursuit, it will fire its shots.

On Hard mode, it will fire twice within the 150-tick homing time, and then on higher difficulties, four times.

[sly pond]

Try typing -skipAssetPreload_AllowStutter on your game's Steam properties.

[hazy crag]

How does the Mine Squid move in a straight way? Not like the other squid.

I might use it for something good...

[sly pond]

Are you referring to squids in general in Platypus 2?

I mean, the thing is, Mine Squids have the same movement patterns as any other squid in Platypus II.

[hazy crag]

The Missile Squid moves left and right in a straight line.

[sly pond]

Okay, I thought you were referring to the mine squid. 😅

[umbral ridge]

Well the mod itself it's extremely huge

[sly pond]

Have you tried this though?

[umbral ridge]

No I haven't used this but for Mods like Amplified Annihilation yeah

amplified isn't as big btw

[sly pond]

Actually, how long does it take to start up REMAM?

If I can load Casinopolis at around a minute without -skipAssetPreload_AllowStutter, then I assume REMAM would take over 5 minutes.

[umbral ridge]

Well the time it takes for Remam on ProBook 450 3g has similar loading times as RimWorld

RimWorld is known to have long loading times btw since I played RimWorld in 2024

Remam Rebalanced is also another big mod

[sly pond]

I can't really put that into perspective, BC I don't know anything about RimWorld.

So, can you please give me the answer in minutes?

Like, how many minutes does it take?

[umbral ridge]

Well when booting up RimWorld it will take around 5 mins but with the Remam updates on a ProBook it will take about 4-6 mins

[sly pond]

Okay, thanks for the info. ^^

[umbral ridge]

With the new laptop it takes 1-2 mins without skip asset

And because of the update were Remam being so huge it requires that new laptop

Again the loading times depends on the specs

If you Google search of loading times on like ProBook 450 3g
