| Subject: That board game in New California Mon Nov 04 2019, 01:12 | |
| So in the vault in New California, two of the characters were playing some kind of robot-war board game. I really like the various games in Fallout 4 and New Vegas and always craved more. It makes me wonder if some kind of board game is possible in New Vegas or Fallout 4's engine; perhaps using very tiny robot npcs as the "pieces."
While we're here, I have a funny feeling that pool (the game, not the swimming) is theoretically possible. There's already a physics engine, all it needs is a way to apply a reasonable thrusting force to a ball, and some means of scoring. I think.
I can't see any way for an AI player to be implemented though. But barstool games shows off what modding just might be capable of doing in Fallout 4 with additional games. I suspect that if the modders hadn't left the project (I assume they were exhausted so I can't blame them, it looked like a big project), Caravan and poker would have shown up in the game too.
It would probably be a huge amount of work and probably some mysterious, advanced scripting to be able to control the pieces, so this is more of a "is it possible within the limitations of the engines" rather than a "will it actually happen?" |
