Slowed flying creature animation bug

Open Branikolog opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

Vampires don't move smoothly over battlefield. They turn into bat, bat starts waving with its wings, then bat appears the next hex. Then jumps the last one (Vampires have speed 2) and there we can see transformation. Vampires issue.zip

This is the problem for any flying creature.

@Branikolog , could you please check if in the original game slowed creatures can fly through a castle's wall?

@ihhub In the original game slowed flying creature acts the same to walking creatures: It cannot fly over any obstacles or other troops. It also can be stopped by a moat.

I think, slowed flying animation should be fixed up to upcoming 1.0 release, as it looks quite bad, actually.

Hello, @Branikolog. In the original game the slowed creatures also have bad animation:

fheroes2 for the comparison:

The most notable difference is the lack of a vampire-to-bat animation.

Do we plan not to replicate the original game, but to make the smooth slow animation for the flying creatures?

Hi, @Districh-ru ! We should improve the animation. Original game looks as bad, as the current implementation. I think, there're two problems here:

  1. No take off and landing animation frames.
  2. Not smooth enough flying animation.

Ok, I'll try to fix this issue bout I don't know how fast I could do this.

@Districh-ru You've done well before! I really appreciate your help fixing all those game issues!

Thank you, @Branikolog! I'm glad that I was able to help with the project development. :)

The start is made, they learned how to take off and land. :)
