During the weekend, I only had very little time to create, but the current process is still not publishable, because most of the work is not design but scripting. here I bring you at least one publishable trifle.

I thought about how I would show you the progress that is not visible in the game, so I did at least a video sample of the scripts.

and since I write almost all the scripts in more or less my own language, I will describe to you in at least a few lines what I am currently working on.

firstly:  for the fourth time I rework the physics of the train. At first I thought it would be easy to create a train, but as I was convinced, it's not just about the locomotive moving on the track, because there are also wagons on the track. and what would happen if I didn't put physics into the game? nothing... you see them, but the locomotive would simply pass through them.so I created a script to make the wagons move in front of or behind the locomotive. but what about if the wagons are not attached to the locomotive, and the locomotive moves away from the wagons???wagons should stop moving. simple. but let me tell you, it wasn't that easy for me. from the beginning, my wagons moved up and down the map like crazy ..in the end, I managed to fix it step by step, and create a universal script into which I will not have to insert any wagon values in the future.
I also started working so that the locomotive could only cover a certain number of wagons. each wagon will affect the acceleration of the locomotive up to the point where the locomotive does not move at all.
I also developed a fuel demand script.
and finally I created a couple of pictures with a translucent background, which I will use as icons of wagons, locomotives, I created an icon of coal buckets, which I will use as a fuel indicator. depending on the amount of fuel loaded into the locomotive, the bucket is colored green, but it also retains all other textures. Personally, I'm quite happy with that, but if my satisfaction isn't 100%, I'll probably come back to it again.

after long hours of suffering when creating basic scripts, I finally moved a big step forward today.. 
today I finally managed to complete the basic scripts for the locomotive and wagons, including the ability to move the wagon without connection, to connect and uncouple the wagons, the impact of the number of wagons on acceleration and deceleration, the impact of crashing into the wagon on speed, and several others.
I was finally able to start creating the visible content of the game.

welcome to YslaVulcana

 those of you who already know my work, you know that I create mainly technically oriented things with a lot of animations.
and it will not be otherwise in this case either...
The train I have presented to you, is the main PART of the game, but it will not be the main POINT of the game, just a means to fulfill some parts...
with the help of the train you will have to transport certain materials for the operation of several devices, which will then make other parts of the tasks available to you.

I hope to see you soon with more news... :)

Wow! I've had a hard time justifying to myself why I have spent 1700 hours building ships in this game...

I guess, among the people who are still here playing this game 1700 isn't that crazy hahah

 if you think you have found a connection with the game of the next generation, write in the comment a brief description of what the connection could be :) 

btw,my wife says it's a big hammer, do you think it's a hammer or an oil pump? :D

just like my colleagues, I have made some progress in creating an yland, so I am attaching a video sample of what I have managed to create in the last days.

 beware, the video contains hints on how to solve puzzles on the island!

after a short break, I'm abbot here. the fact that I did not put pictures here does not mean that I did not work on the island. on the contrary, I worked very intensively, but the progress is not very visible.
in the description is some things of it I worked on. 


work on locomotive,the locomotive already contains: basic sounds,  the possibility to light a fire under the boiler (without fire it is not possible to move the locomotive) without fuel it is not possible to light a fire, fuel depletion, completely new HUD locomotives without their own pictures.

partial modifications to the power plant : according to the number of electric generators, lights are on all over the island.
the lights are automatic, at six o'clock in the evening (game time) they turn on, but only if the power plant has been put into operation, and at least one electric generator is switched on. and they turn off at six o'clock in the morning. if only one generator is switched on, the brightness of the lights is only 25%, if all generators are switched on, the brightness of the lights is 100%.

work at an oil refinery: small design adjustments. added the main object of the oil refinery, a hall crane for refueling oil into wagons. The indoor crane already contains: sound effects when switching on and moving. all motion scripts.

I was wanted to use my own images to display the control of the crane, but the library of my own images have little storage space, which I still need to use mainly to display the controls on mobile devices. so a few pictures that should have been added but for technical reasons will not be there, I will at least add here to the forum.

I finally managed to finish another of the main zones, I would say the most important for fulfilling the tasks on the island.
Of course, I will still be working on design decorations, but the most important things will remain hidden for the player's eyes, with hundreds of lines of scripts that take place on the island :)

I can see that my colleagues have almost finished the games, but I'm not doing so well. I'm struggling with a lack of time, so I had to cut the scenario again , and leave it here really only necessary things. :( 
So I'm using my plan B. here is a lot of hours and I don't want to write about it much, but every new game on the island will have a unique code, 16 digits, to unlock the safe.

for those who would like to cheat and try to enter the code without getting it as intended: there is 1,E16 possible combinations, so I wish you good luck :D:D:D

At the time when I first looked at how many hours I had played, I had been working on this yland for about 70 hours ...

179061691_Beznzvu.png.ebbcde334ce540453e938b534ae03404.png

 

and I'm glad that after more than 400 hours I got to the finish line... :) 

after many mistakes in the scripts, I wanted to give it up many times ... but it didn't happen ... I endured it.

I hope that my island will meet at least the minimum requirements for placement in the world,

but if it does not, I pray that the developers will allow us to share with other players about these creations at least through a workshop...

 

I keep my fingers crossed for all the teammates and let the best one win!!! 

with the envelope of my island I say goodbye to you in this thread, and don't forget: stay classy and something more ylanders  :):):) ?‍♂️
