1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:01,440
Alrighty.

2
00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:02,340
Welcome.

3
00:00:02,340 --> 00:00:07,230
This lecture is where we are going to set up everything we need to start scripting our game.

4
00:00:07,740 --> 00:00:12,450
You may see me building the map in the background of this lecture, and I'm going to lay the foundation

5
00:00:12,450 --> 00:00:14,520
for what we're going to need in our map.

6
00:00:14,550 --> 00:00:18,180
First we're going to need to spawn areas for our players.

7
00:00:18,210 --> 00:00:23,310
The first spawn area is going to hold all of our dead players while they are in the main guy.

8
00:00:23,340 --> 00:00:26,100
The second spawn area is going to be on our map.

9
00:00:26,340 --> 00:00:31,830
Our map should have four areas that zombies can spawn at, so it's not possible for the players to camp

10
00:00:31,830 --> 00:00:34,410
one particular zombie spawning area.

11
00:00:34,590 --> 00:00:39,090
Our map should also include a shop where players can purchase gear at the end of each wave.

12
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:44,250
Lastly, our map should be impossible to escape, meaning we should have invisible walls to prevent

13
00:00:44,250 --> 00:00:47,400
players or zombies from wandering outside of the map.

14
00:00:47,700 --> 00:00:52,770
All of the assets you will need for this project, including the map, has been attached to this lecture.

15
00:00:52,770 --> 00:00:56,880
However, feel free to manipulate the map or even create your own from scratch.

16
00:00:57,710 --> 00:00:59,480
So let's go ahead and get started.

17
00:00:59,510 --> 00:01:02,450
I'm going to create a new empty base plate.

18
00:01:04,260 --> 00:01:08,910
So now we can go ahead and delete both the spawn location and the base plate, because the game assets

19
00:01:08,910 --> 00:01:11,610
that I've attached are going to contain everything you'll need.

20
00:01:11,610 --> 00:01:16,950
So we can go ahead and open up our toolbox and insert the game assets here are mine right here.

21
00:01:16,950 --> 00:01:18,600
We'll drag that into the game.

22
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,660
And now here is everything that we're going to need for our game.

23
00:01:21,660 --> 00:01:24,780
As you can see, we already have a big base plate for the game.

24
00:01:24,780 --> 00:01:28,560
We have some nice city buildings surrounding just for the aesthetic.

25
00:01:29,890 --> 00:01:31,450
As well as an area.

26
00:01:31,450 --> 00:01:37,180
If we go back here in our map, here is an area where we're going to hold all of the dead players in

27
00:01:37,180 --> 00:01:37,600
our game.

28
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:41,710
As you can see, here is one of the spawn locations for them.

29
00:01:41,710 --> 00:01:45,940
And then the other spawn location for alive players is going to be on our map.

30
00:01:45,940 --> 00:01:47,740
This invisible spawn location.

31
00:01:48,340 --> 00:01:53,260
When players join into our game, they're going to be spawning right here in the middle of our map.

32
00:01:53,590 --> 00:01:58,030
Now, as I stated, you want to have four different areas that zombies can spawn at.

33
00:01:58,030 --> 00:02:03,130
As you can see on our map, one area is going to be right here, another is going to be over here,

34
00:02:03,130 --> 00:02:06,610
one is going to be over here, and the other one is going to be over here.

35
00:02:06,610 --> 00:02:09,640
So I have four different areas that zombies can spawn at.

36
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:16,480
And inside each of these areas there is an invisible part stored in this folder called zombie spawns.

37
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:19,300
And these are the different areas that we can spawn our zombies.

38
00:02:19,300 --> 00:02:26,140
And inside each one of these is an attachment which we're going to go ahead and set the zombie keyframe

39
00:02:26,140 --> 00:02:28,990
to when we want to spawn them in the map.

40
00:02:29,660 --> 00:02:36,350
We also have a shop in the middle of our map with an invisible part, and this part has a proximity

41
00:02:36,350 --> 00:02:41,150
prompt inside of it, and this is where players can go up, trigger the prompt, and open up a shop

42
00:02:41,150 --> 00:02:46,880
guy during the intermission between different waves where they can go ahead and buy other equipment.

43
00:02:47,060 --> 00:02:52,700
We also have ammo boxes that players are going to be able to use to refill the ammo in their guns when

44
00:02:52,700 --> 00:02:53,510
they run out.

45
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:59,960
We also have invisible walls all around the map to prevent zombies and players from being able to climb

46
00:02:59,960 --> 00:03:03,410
out and get outside of the map's boundaries, which we don't want.

47
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:07,850
So we've added all of these invisible walls to prevent that from happening.

48
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:14,960
We also want to prevent players from being able to enter into the spawn areas of zombies.

49
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:18,290
So that's why we have another set of invisible walls.

50
00:03:18,290 --> 00:03:22,730
And each of these invisible walls has a collision group called Zombie Walls.

51
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:27,410
Now, since we've created a new game, that means the collision groups are not going to be set up for

52
00:03:27,410 --> 00:03:27,560
us.

53
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,350
So we need to go ahead and set up some collision groups.

54
00:03:30,350 --> 00:03:35,480
So if we head over to the model tab and open up collision groups, we're going to want to add three

55
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,930
collision groups, one for zombies, one for players.

56
00:03:38,930 --> 00:03:42,380
And we're going to want to add one for the Zombie Walls collision group.

57
00:03:42,380 --> 00:03:45,830
So we can go ahead and add one for zombie walls.

58
00:03:46,370 --> 00:03:48,710
The other group we need to add is zombie.

59
00:03:48,710 --> 00:03:52,070
And then we also need to add a collision group for players.

60
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:57,650
Now we want to make sure that zombies are able to walk through these invisible walls, but not players.

61
00:03:57,650 --> 00:04:03,890
So we're going to make sure that zombies cannot collide with anything tagged as zombie walls in their

62
00:04:03,890 --> 00:04:04,670
collision group.

63
00:04:04,700 --> 00:04:10,670
However, we do want players to be able to collide with zombie walls, but we won't want players to

64
00:04:10,670 --> 00:04:14,900
collide with other players, so we're going to uncheck that right there.

65
00:04:15,850 --> 00:04:20,470
In fact, if you take a look at each one of our zombies and we were to select one of their limbs.

66
00:04:21,220 --> 00:04:22,570
If we check their cohesion group.

67
00:04:22,570 --> 00:04:26,050
As you can see, they should automatically be set to zombie for you.

68
00:04:26,050 --> 00:04:29,920
And that way when we go and highlight over the zombie collision group, as you can see, it highlights

69
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:33,460
each one of those parts showing us the collision group for our zombie.

70
00:04:33,460 --> 00:04:38,140
If we click zombie walls, their highlights, each of the different walls that zombies are going to

71
00:04:38,140 --> 00:04:42,520
be able to walk through, but players are not going to be able to walk through.

72
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:48,530
So now what we can go ahead and do is that inside of our game assets model, we can go ahead and take

73
00:04:48,530 --> 00:04:51,710
each of these models and ungroup them in their respective service.

74
00:04:51,710 --> 00:04:56,000
So for example this model right here needs to be Ungrouped and replicated storage.

75
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:57,230
So we'll move that there.

76
00:04:57,230 --> 00:04:59,180
Do control new and ungroup that.

77
00:04:59,790 --> 00:05:01,980
This needs to be Ungrouped in server storage.

78
00:05:01,980 --> 00:05:04,560
So we'll move that over there and group it there.

79
00:05:05,170 --> 00:05:07,150
This one goes to starter Guy.

80
00:05:07,150 --> 00:05:08,320
We'll ungroup that one.

81
00:05:08,980 --> 00:05:11,200
This one goes into teams.

82
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,200
So we'll move that down there and ungroup that.

83
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:17,080
And then this one needs to be ungrouped in the workspace.

84
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:21,430
So we'll just make it a child of the workspace controlling U and ungroup that.

85
00:05:21,430 --> 00:05:24,580
And now we no longer need this game assets model.

86
00:05:25,940 --> 00:05:29,060
So on your screen you should see all of this UI stuff.

87
00:05:29,060 --> 00:05:34,280
If you would like to hide that, we can go to the view tab and disable UI visibility for now.

88
00:05:34,280 --> 00:05:39,650
Because one more thing I would like to show you is that inside each of those invisible parts where our

89
00:05:39,650 --> 00:05:45,890
zombies can walk through, each of them have a child inside of them called a pathfinding modifier.

90
00:05:45,890 --> 00:05:52,430
And the purpose of this is to allow our zombies, when we code an AI, for them to be able to see these

91
00:05:52,430 --> 00:05:58,190
parts as non-existent and be able to pathfind through those parts, which why the property inside of

92
00:05:58,190 --> 00:06:00,590
here, called paths through, is set to true.

93
00:06:00,590 --> 00:06:06,680
We have these modifiers inside of these invisible walls, as well as within the different spawn parts.

94
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:12,950
For our zombies, they also have the same pathfinding modifier, so it's important that these pathfinding

95
00:06:12,950 --> 00:06:19,370
modifiers are children of the different invisible parts that we would like our zombies to walk through.

96
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:25,560
Now, another thing we want to go ahead and verify is that each of the spawn plates are set to the correct

97
00:06:25,590 --> 00:06:26,250
team.

98
00:06:26,250 --> 00:06:32,040
So if we go ahead and look at our live team and our dead team, as you can see they are set to the sea

99
00:06:32,070 --> 00:06:35,940
green team color and the dusty rose team color respectively.

100
00:06:36,540 --> 00:06:42,330
Make sure that your dead team has auto assignable set to true, and that your live team has auto assignable

101
00:06:42,330 --> 00:06:43,470
set to false.

102
00:06:43,470 --> 00:06:49,140
And then we want to go ahead and check that our live spawn is set to the same color as our live team,

103
00:06:49,140 --> 00:06:50,220
which is sea green.

104
00:06:50,220 --> 00:06:55,320
And then we also want to verify that each of our dead spawns are also set to the dead team color of

105
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:56,550
dusty Rose.

106
00:06:56,550 --> 00:07:00,300
So if we go and look through, as you can see, they're all set to dusty Rose.

107
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:03,220
And the alive spawn is set to see green.

108
00:07:03,220 --> 00:07:09,250
And we also want to make sure that each of these spawn plates do not have allow team change on touch

109
00:07:09,250 --> 00:07:11,380
enabled or neutral enabled.

110
00:07:12,100 --> 00:07:14,260
Now if I re-enable UI visibility.

111
00:07:14,260 --> 00:07:18,430
As you can see, I've already created the UI for the game, right?

112
00:07:18,430 --> 00:07:20,440
You already have all of the UI assets.

113
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:26,290
However, in the next lecture I'm still going to show you how to create this UI and exactly what process

114
00:07:26,290 --> 00:07:29,260
I use for creating UI in my games.

115
00:07:29,830 --> 00:07:35,050
So now that we have everything set up and in the correct places, I'll go ahead and see you in the next

116
00:07:35,050 --> 00:07:35,800
lecture.
