[FND] Milestone 4 roadmap

Post by Reid »

Hello!

Here is the current milestone roadmap for the version 0.0.4:

  • Splitting navigation export from the server export and make it optional
  • Remove all function call used by the server that use game nodes else than specific server data, db and conf files
  • Generate two binaries through the same project, be able to run in hybrid and in client/server
  • Split Entity code for a client/server use
  • Add basic client/server connection (ip:port connection)
  • Add basic entity sync with a client/server (pos, animation)
  • Add state sync with a client/server
  • Add emote sync with a client/server
  • Add chat sync with a client/server
  • Screenshot feature
  • Zoomed viewport for mobile and large screen
  • NPC support split from mob support
  • Basic NPC interaction
  • Add a new zone, the skull cave map
  • Chat history feature (Up/Down keys)

Code color for our feature:

  • Green, mandatory
  • Orange, optional
  • No color, done

We are staying with Godot4 beta13 for now.
Beta14 and beta15 changed some stuff with the animation process that are not yet documented and that break most of our animation system.

This also mean that we can't add new monsters for now, although, the monster listing is still in progress design-wise and a first list will be shown when it's ready!

Good news everyone!

LawnCable made the necessary fixes to upgrade to Godot4 stable version and I finished the basic network integration, some player actions and interactions are still missing but we may soon be able to host a temp server to stress and test it altogether!

All mandatory tasks are now finished!

Time for some testing, I will set up a temp server in the next days and then we should be good to release this milestone!

We are entering a freeze on this milestone to prepare for the milestone release, all non-mandatory tasks will be merged into the 5th milestone :).
