The game unceremoniously truncates it to “Brune”, providing a disappointment which simultaneously feels like a metonym for the entire enterprise.Īnd yet, clumsy, oft-mistranslated, one-man passion-parp though this might be, it is in some ways a more sophisticated construction tool than the polished and appealing Bridge Constructor. Befitting my modest engineering aspirations, I go for “Brunel”. But it’s only when I go to pick a name with which to inaugurate my campaign profile that the penny drops. I suppose some things should have tipped me the wink: the mercurial approach to sentence structure on the Steam store pages the website’s eager use of Comic Sans pretty much everything about the way this game looks. I admit: I only downloaded this because I mistook it for Bridge Constructor, a cheery-looking physics game that I could have sworn had already been released to YouTubers’ delight some years ago. They are not entirely as terrible as they might first look. It also turns out to be standalone level pack otherwise included in the more sandboxy 3D Bridge Engineer toolkit - which is also on Early Access. This week, he dons his hardhat and unfolds the blueprint for 3d Bridges, a physics-based construction puzzler in which you construct - yes! - bridges and then run a truck over them to test both their mettle and their metal. The original code was written by DrPyspy and used with his permission, while I'm the one that updated it, such as by adding the User_SkyParallax variable, so the mapper can control how much the sky camera moves relative to the player without having to change the cameras' source code.Īlso if I can, tommorow I'll make and attach a video here of this sky camera actor in action.Each week Marsh Davies scuttles nervously over the creaking, makeshift architecture of Early Access and comes back with any stories he can find and/or plunges to his doom amid a shower of twisting metal. Also I'm not really sure where it would fit, so I decided to post it here in the SFX Shoppe. But earlier today I finally got around to having someone make that graphic (Tabijaky), though originally I wanted to make it myself. The only thing that was missing was a custom sprite for the actor, to not use the pre-existing graphic for the normal sky viewpoint. This is a submission I've wanted to make for about a month, the code for it was already finished and I've even used this sky camera for some of my unreleased maps already. For more info, read the DOCUMENT.txt file. The amount of parallax can be changed through the User_SkyParallax use variable. Sprite Edit: Custom sky camera graphic by Tabijaky, made from GZDB/UDB's sky viewpoint graphic.Īn improved variant of ZDoom's existing static sky viewpoint actor, unlike the ZDoom sky camera, this camera will move relative to the players' camera, making it so you can move closer or further from objects like distant hills that exist within a skybox sector, instead of the camera staying in place, similar to 3D skyboxes in the Source Engine. Spawn Ceiling: No, can be raised to it in-editor.Īctor Modification: Only inherits from the pre-existing SkyViewpoint that is inside the engine archive.Ĭode: inkoalawetrust (Improved code), DrPyspy (Original base code) Spawn Offsets: Where the camera will be is determined by the mapper themselves/ Connections: None (Inherits from a built-in (G)ZDoom actor.)
