addedI am back from the holidays with an update for AmaranTime. One of the features I was (and still am) proud of is the Run In Place Locomotion, but I found that not many people would prefer to just play the game standing in the same place. Since I want to test out if the Run In Place Locomotion is a good and not sick inducing mechanic, I've decided to implement a few new features to force players to move around the environment.The update can be summed up in this gif: The guns now have a finite amount of shots, meaning that the Player will have to collect ammo as they start shooting more. The ammo will automatically spawn when the shots get low, but they will spawn far away enough so that the player has to run over to reach it. There is also an interface on the front of the gun to indicate how many shots you have left. To Reload, all you have to do is insert the clip into the gun, like this MLG reload shows: There have also been a lot of work done on the backend of things to help make the game run a bit more smoothly, including a whole rewrite of how the game handles the player picking up and tossing objects. Other than that, here's a run down of all the changes in this update: Bug Fixes
changedBug Fix: Grabbing the head will now not reset the head position to global (0,0,0) coordinates
