Unit Model Degradation #293

Open KeithSammut opened 5 years ago

KeithSammut commented 5 years ago

As the hp is reduced, the texture and the model of the unit changes, example an archer would have torn cloth, with blood coming out. This is currently possible, but obviously requires a lot of time.

youll have to make a lot of textures for this, possibly for all units in the game!

This would put more strain on the coders, but this could be done with 2 textures: 1 healthy texture and 1 degraded texture. As the unit loses health, the model transitions from the healthy to the degraded texture.
