It's getting there, just need Fighting Sprites, Character Roll Call, and more testing! It's about 90% if I were to make an estimate, but I don't know how much work the Fighting Sprite Team will need. Probably not a lot, it's just that they need a sort of engine. Here's what I thought of for that: - In Game Maker, all variables are multi-cast. This means that I can assign a normal string variable to be an array of strings if necessary. So, what I decided to do was to convert all the player indices to arrays (lists) of player indices. - When a player is KO'd, the next player in the array is loaded, etc. - Since the fighting sprites will have very small data files to be loaded, the lag time after each KO will be minimal. Thoughts? |

How many different Fighting Sprites are there? If there's only three different kinds, then you could do the same thing as the Team Match and just have 3 character slots with 10 lives each or something similar.
Um... in Brawl there were alloys for Mario, Captain Falcon, Kirby and Zelda... Dang, that's four...
Well, we don't have Zelda yet, so we could just have 3 types of sprites in the Fighting Sprite team.

Okay, so what other things to finish off?

Everytime a minimal lag?
Depends how much is minimal.

Minimal would be as little as possible.
So probably not very much, if any.

Just a random guess, I'd say minimal is probably 10 frames or so.
@corey: Here's the list for Classic:
1. Fighting Sprite Team
2. Testing
3. Race to the Finish (later update).

Yes, Roll Call is under construction at the moment. No worries.

At the end, when they show all the character's names and stuff where you shoot everything, like in brawl.
There should definitely be something to unlock if you shoot everything.

I, personally, hated that, and wouldn't like to have to go through that again and again and again to try to unlock someone. |

I assume the level could be turned down.
OR
doing it unlocks a new mode-credits mode.
So you won't have to go through the trouble of going through Classic to do it.

I like that although it seems a little pointless. I can't imagine the credits for this being particularly long though.

How many different sources are the sprites and characters coming from?
Point in case.

Well, I'm guessing you could add a few things whereas you make the credits go slow, so that you'd hit all the trophies and Pokemon, and other stuff.

I dont think there should be unlockables by shooting in roll call. Slowing it down to shoot it for the pupose of unlocking makes it too easy. And shooting at decent speed is challenging enough as it is, and im sure many of us would be very fustrated if we lose our chance for an unlockable only cause we fail to shoot one or two names. The purpose of roll call is for a relaxing game after a hard battle with the final boss and for entertainment during credits. Plus, lets say you are playing classic to unlock one character, successfully beat it, go through roll call, shot all the names, and now no one knows which character you will fight to unlock since you just completed two different task at one time. On top of that, say we fail to beat the unlockable character for roll call, do we really want to play through both classic and credits for one thing?

I don't think he's suggesting unlocking a character or stage or anything important from it. Maybe just some bonus thing like a credits hard mode or something.
