Hi. and ctrl+shift+d for both in a row, wow, the possibilities! That actually sounds reasonable to me, just using d with modifyers for direction and distance and such. ----- Original Message ----- From: Thomas Ward To: Gamers Discussion list Sent: Tuesday, April 14, 2009 11:31 AM Subject: [Audyssey] Getting target distance and direction.
Hello everyone, As many of you know I have been spending a little time the last couple weeks just working on the cross platform Genesis Engine so that when Mysteries of the Ancients is finished I can jump in and begin work on some new titles with it. Anyway, while working last night I had some thoughts about gathering target information. The first way is I could have you press a single key like d to gett the distance and direction to the enemy. Obviously that is quick and simple, but you might get a lot of extra information you might not want at the time. For example, it might say something like this. Enemy 1 Below and to the left Distance 15 meters As a gamer I can see the value of using different keyboard commands depending on what specific information you need. For example you might press shift+d for direction and control+d for distance. That way you can get absolutely the information you need/want without hearing the entire message. Any thoughts on this?
