Hi there
I have a plan to create RTS game.
So, i need these features:
Basically there are 30 players, you and others are bot/AI.
Each player will attacking closest other player if on line of sight and on radius.
Is possible to do this with Phaser 3? i don’t find any example or tutorial related to RTS game.
How about performance? especially on Mid end mobile devices
I don’t think any of the features you mentioned would be ready-to-use, out-of-the-box without custom code.
But I’m certain that they can be implemented and supported.
Following and radius detection are the simplest to make between the 4 you mentioned so I’d suggest some research on the other two first.
Best of luck!
Yep, someone has already in fact! And it’s a really high quality production too: https://phaser.io/news/2017/08/strike-tactics
I find this plugin https://github.com/mikewesthad/navmesh
I think it’s good compared to easystar, but it’s have less example, tutorial or documentation, so, it’s hard for me to implement this.
I think it’s made with Phaser 2
I’m pretty confident that Phaser 3 would give you a cleaner and easier to understand toolset for creating your games.
Yes it’s possible, but Phaser doesn’t come with complex algorithms like pathfinding out of the box, that’s entirely up to the coder to build. Phaser is more of a suite of building-blocks - like Sprites, Animations, Scenes, Asset Loading etc. - from which you build up your Business Logic (or, more specifically in this case, the maths needed to calculate pathfinding.
Forget Phaser for a second, pathfinding is a more fundamental Mathematic problem, than a JS Framework one. Look into A* (“A Star”) or Dykstra’s algorithm for basics on getting entities from A to B.
