Cutscenes

[jo]

Imagine a cutscene as a in game animated film. Spaceships are moving around, shooting, boosting - all according to a screenplay.

The first step is to design a controller that follows a pre set description of a movement. All animated objects (spaceships, the camera, … ) can be steered by different instances of this generic controller.

• Think of how generically the movement and behaviour of a spaceship - or any other, less complex object - can be described. Which parameters are needed?
• Create a controller that can carry out the script. Have a look at the WaypointController if you need help with the implementation.
