It's already using ray tracing for the physics calculations. The bullet object just follows along the path of the ray trace (so there's no calculations for the bullet object itself). The ray trace (as well as the bullet mesh) also get deleted if either the velocity goes below 10 cm/s or 5 seconds have passed since the bullet was shot/spawned. The only thing that would cause performance issues for people would be UE's lighting and mesh culling. But I'd rather focus on making a functional and fun game before going too far into the neverending optimization pit (there is always some optimization you could do).

@@officialdeadendgames thank you for explaining, you're 100% right working on fun factor is more important and your implementation should have good performance, I just was worried that you use the bullet mesh for collision calculations but you clearly know what you're doing

No, the collision boxes have to be in those exact positions or they don't like up with the buttons when interacting. I think it has to do with the way unreal engine translates the 2D mouse movement to 3D space.

Thanks for the interest in my game. Since this game is only in an alpha state I still plan on adding more to the Ted the Caver gameplay (around 5-10 more minutes of gameplay). I already know of the next 2-3 stories I will add and am working on getting in contact with some other creepypasta writers for rights to their stories. I agree that what made the original Ted the Caver creepypasta terrifying is the unknown of the creature in the cave with them. That's the main element I wanted to capture in my game. I keep having a game with no jumpscares or monsters would make creating a creepy atmosphere more challenging but I hope I can live up to the original story with this game.

It finally finished. It just took an hour.

There's some stuff I'm keeping very secret so I'll just go over what will be immediately playable on launch day (which is like, probably gonna be another 2 years or so). Multiplayer (obviously since that's what I'm working on right now). I'll probably have a total of 10 maps on launch. I want a good range of small and medium maps. I plan on having the basic FPS game modes like Search & Destroy, Hardpoint, Domination, Free-For-All and Team Deathmatch. I also am working on a completely original game mode but I'll touch on that a bit more in a future video. The campaign will be a more gritty and realistic take on the Vietnam war with you playing as the average marine. You will be apart of of 1st battalion 7th marines for the majority of the game but I do take a small bit of writer's liberty by having you also play in the 2nd battalion 7th marines. I have kept as much historical accuracy as possible when creating the story for the campaign and plan on continuing with the historical accuracy with the assets used. I've done hundreds of hours of research reading, watching and compiling information about the war. I'm planning on a World at War style campaign to give an idea of the grittiness I'm going for (maybe even more intense than WaW). finally, I will also have a co-op missions mode like spec ops from the original modern warfare 2 and survival mode similar to the one in the original modern warfare 3. On top of this I also want to include a new game plus for the campaign where you can play as a squad leader from the start and you'll have to do squad management on top of fighting a war. And, as stated previously, I have some planned secret modes that I cannot and will not speak of at anytime (besides giving hints here and there). for more specifics of the multiplayer I have a list of 28 weapons in total. I also plan on adding a perk system similar to Call of Duty's and killstreaks. I have other ideas floating around for game modes and whatnot but for now that is all I have planned. Depending on time restraints, hype and my abilities as a programmer some of these plans might not come to fruition upon release but I plan on supporting the game fully for at least 2 years. After 2 years I will put support for the game on the back burner and begin work on some other game ideas I have in store. If my game/these videos begin to gain more hype/viewers that are interested in the game, I might hold a live Q&A session to answer more questions about the game. But all of that is wishful thinking and something for future me to worry about. I appreciate your enthusiasm towards my game dev journey. I hope I am able to make a product that I and anyone who is watching these videos can be proud of. Thank you for the support.

sadly, I am working on my own game (based on the vietnam war) right now with my own small group of developers and designers. I'd be happy to help with any issues you have along the way though! And I'm always open to help test other's games and give feedback on how the systems work. You can add me on discord at Devishjack#9012

Thanks. This was just a short video made for some friends I'm working with on a game to show a free mocap solution that could be used for cinematics. I'm glad others are able to find enjoyment in my stupidity while I test out new technology.

He's super over dramatic (pretty sure he's got a little bit of husky in him at this point). Whenever he gets bored he'll do this till we play with him or let him go outside to play.

Nah it's cool, I also did it pretty late at night. I did the video mostly to keep my thoughts down on how the code works (in case a take a long break and forget) and also in case anyone did tune in, so I could talk about it and not be overly bored while coding.

@@officialdeadendgames okay, I hope to see you stream soon man!

@@jimbobutnotslimbo625 I might stream tonight, and if not I will definitely stream tomorrow.
