The Wonderland Multiplayer Suggestion thread!

StinkerSquad01 · Post by **StinkerSquad01** » Tue Sep 27, 2011 10:35 pm

Wonderland has always missed one thing, and that one thing is cookies. Just joking, it's really Multiplayer. In this topic we can share and discuss things about a multiplayer Wonderland.

First question: How will FireFlowers shoot it told to home when more than one player is there?

My idea: It homes in on the closest one, making a useful tool for puzzle, as one player can distract the flower while others solve a puzzle.

Your ideas?

2:Same is 1 but with chompers.

3:What happens if one player dies?
Ans:IDK

Dude, you aren't the only one to come up with that. I didn't even know you had that idea on your own until now.

This is not about whether its going to happen or not, its about if it were to happen, what would you think we be in it? Don't steal the fun! D:

I have a couple of ideas for multiplayer mode:

Are they good?

I think I am the original author of this idea (at least I think I am

)

Multiplayer mode is not at all undoable, but there are 2 modes for multiplayer:
-MMO - Would suit the Wonderland plot more
-Puzzle - Keeping the original idea of Wonderland, but we will need a special method to tackle lag (it doesn't matter much in singleplayer, but it matters VERY much in multiplayer)

As for commands, we need to invent a new protocol.

Name aliases would be easier.

eg /hat stinkersquad01
Would change my hat.

No, I am talking about the technical implementation behind. We could easily make a GUI for hat changing, but how this information is sent to the server is another thing.

Hey I got some ideas.
1,You are in a lobby with adventure stars.
2,When you die you go back there,
3,Make your own magic or gloves by digging rocks to getting crystals
4,Use either the classic game or the presant game.

The hub will have to be using the WA engine, but the puzzles can run on either RTW or WA engine.

You just took a list of the commands from wonderland and turned them into a .pdf. Now name them.

Fixed now!

First mode is doable, but the half-screen idea might bring too much lag for low-spec machines and/or those with slow internet.

MS might disapprove the second mode, as stated by him here:

d) the spirit of the game doesn't deviate too far from the official Wonderland games (e.g. a violent shoot-em-up where Stinky and Loof battle hordes of Zombies would not be ok)

But if it's a MMORPG, this mode is almost necessary.

I say online. You would design your Stinker, name it, and choose where you wanted to live. If you died you would return to your house,

jozsefkoma · Post by **jozsefkoma** » Fri Sep 30, 2011 7:26 pm

I think that in the wonderland server should be something like the spawn area(Minecraft) and when players die,he will back to this point.
What happens with items from inventory when the player die?

MyNameIsKooky · Post by **MyNameIsKooky** » Fri Sep 30, 2011 7:31 pm

It depends on how often players die.

If players can't die in one hit, you should lose 50% of your coins when you die.

Minimap.

A minimap will be helpful for all sorts of things.
Discuss!

Losing 50% is too much.
My idea that he could travel through places to learn magics.

Why? You can easily avoid losing too many coins by spending them as you get them.

Random idea:You lose all your coins at death but there's a bank in the first town or something that you can keep coins in so you don't lose them.

Who will a chomper chase?
Who will a thwart shoot at?
Wee stinkers will follow who?
what will happen if two persons surround a scritter and other 6 sides wall is there?
If one person moves, the scritter can't go close to either of them

not all adventures must be played with people. it can be solo too... for certain levels.
-if four players are going to play a level, the chomper might have 4 colors.
let us say. (player1: red chomper) (player2: gold chomper) (player3: green chomper) (player4: cyan chomper).
-the closer the player to the thwart, he'll shoot him
-the guy who firstly touches them.
-That could be confusing.
-That could be confusing2.

I don't want to move the game in my way, but I usually play online games like this.

Why? You can easily avoid losing too many coins by spending them as you get them.

I didn't think of that, but what would happen if the stinker had 1 coin?

Random idea:You lose all your coins at death but there's a bank in the first town or something that you can keep coins in so you don't lose them.

if this Idea and MNIK's idea worked. it'll be awesome. It'll be better than losing 50% of the money.

so who's going to make the multiplayer game?

ab-47 · Post by **ab-47** » Sat Oct 01, 2011 5:58 am

How about a new name each time his rank increases. until lvl 50
lvl1: wonderlander
lvl2: better wonderlander
lvl3-6: bronze wonderlander
lvl7-10: big bronze wonderlander
lvl11-15: silver wonderlander
lvl16-20: big silver wonderlander.
lvl21-25: gold wonderlander
lvl26-30: big gold wonderlander
lvl31: rainbow wonderlander
lvl32: rainbow spirit seeker.
lvl33: rainbow spirit keeper
lvl34:rainbow spirit chaser
lvl35:rainbow master
lvl36: rainbow wizard
lvl37: rainbow king
lvl38: rainbow superstar
lvl39: rainbow master star
lvl40: Ruler of all rainbows.
lvl41: shooting star.
lvl42: rainbow incredible star.
lvl43: rainbow superstar wonderlander
lvl44: rainbow wonderland king
lvl45: on the rainbow.
lvl46-49: above the rainbow

Most MMORPGs set that when you die, you lose about 5% of your EXP.

A bank is a requirement for a MMORPG

Guppy Star wrote:Who will a chomper chase?

The closest stinker in adventure mode, same as before in puzzle mode.
Wee stinkers will follow who?
Wee stinkers should be a playable character, or as the player when he is young (under level 10)
what will happen if two persons surround a scritter and other 6 sides wall is there?
If one person moves, the scritter can't go close to either of them
They probably won't move.

Comments in bold.

ab-47 wrote:so who's going to make the multiplayer game?

Me, I suppose. MS is busy, and I think I am the only one here (except Blast!10) who really has programming experience outside GML (I know PHP, Python and is trying to learn Java). I doubt I would really get anywhere, though. Laziness and stuff. (Did Guppy Star said he could code in C++?)

About the ranking idea: It would be easy to implement but I think it's not really necessary.
