[WIP] Follow Formations #12

Open Gultask opened 1 year ago

Gultask commented 1 year ago

Circle Semi-Circle Line Column Angular Line - Leader on Head

Circle: Maximum angle of 90 degrees formula for angle is memberIterator * angle, so for 3 members it's 90, 180, 270

Line: front -> back -> front -> back (Ghostriders of Karabor, other 4-member groups)

Column: left -> right -> left -> right (Shadow Labyrinth trash in front of Vorpil)

Angular: left -> right -> left -> right (many 4-member groups)

Formations can change both Follow Patterns AND Leaders/Members

Example: The imp dance near the entrance of Shadow Labyrinth change leader from an Imp to the Orc nearby

Formations can dissolve easily, and it won't force creatures to follow afterwards

Example: Dimensius the All-Devouring quest in Netherstorm

Circle starts at 0º + angle. Maximum angle is 90º

There must be a setting to allow or deny formations to reform at will. Proof: Hand of Argus Swordsman. They're a group that spawns near Blood Watch and patrols the area northwest of it. If some members die, the formation will be lopsided and will not reform. If the leader dies, they'll sprint back to the spawn area.

When a member dies, it'll automatically rejoin a scripted formation when respawned. Proof: Assault by Ground in ICC (Zone)
