All hail.

Now all we need is a controllable super bomb, you've made a cursor so I bet you could make a bombcursor that has collisions.
Right?

Step 1. Order a normal crab.
Step 2. Give it invincibility via the appropriate cursor.
Step 3. Drop a Starman on it.
Step 4. Throw it at things at laugh maniacally as any actor that gets hit by the little ball of doom disintegrates into an upwards moving explosion of blood.
For bonus points: delete the legs for little ball of doomness.

While I agree this is awesome, sadly it refuses to work for me. I moved the cursor a few spaces and immediately my game crashed.

This is brilliant, aside from the occasional crashes.
I still think that a crab or actor version for missions would just be the best, I normaly play missions.

This is amazing so amazing that someone needs to make up a new word for it.

You know what TLB I think someone has to go get Data to come down here and personally tell you "Good Job!".

Jesus fudge Christ on a stick. TLB just made me start playing CC again.

How would you have it move around, and have the cursor?
Have it "deploy" somewhere, then be stationary, and able to un-deploy?

I also love this mod. However, it often breaks down my CC and lags.
And, once or twice, I've had a Heavy Digger be immune to the Delete function.

Actually, I did some testing on this with a project Grif and I were working on and maybe one day will complete. MOPixels will turn to scrap as long as there is no background layer behind them. That's why terrain and bunker module pixels don't scrap, but the concrete barrier does - it has no background. Try placing one halfway into a bunker. The part outside the bunker scraps, the part inside doesn't. I've brought this to Data's attention, but it could take a while to fix.
I'm really sorry this crashes so much. If I could reproduce the crashes I would go out of my way to fix them, but I very rarely get them. Why some systems crash and others don't is entirely beyond me. I think we have to admit at this point that it's mostly underlying components of the CC engine causing these problems, because theoretically Lua should work the same on all platforms. There's just not much I can do about it yet.

Is there any code that refers to what the brain is? as in if you were to make it a crab would it change anything?
We could make a system similar to a deployable turret from Darkstorm,

Oh, and the crashes seem to just be similar to the normal game crashes that happen occasionaly during skirmish, never on missions for some reson though I may have had a crash there once

Honestly I think one of the reasons your mods have a "tendency" to crash is because they add in additional CPU overhead, over and above the already poorly optimized CC engine, and that causes the program to do bad ♥♥♥♥.

Again really the problem is all optimization.

PS yeah pretty good mod I guess

also, (to TLB) constructor starting soon I promise

On a computer worse than what I normally use the crashes increased a great amount. So yeah, it's probably the CPU for at least one factor.

One can GREATLY reduce crashing and lag by being nice to it. Keep your MOID and particle count low (very easy with the delete tool), don't ram things into each other really quickly with the move tool (a gentle crush works just as well) and avoid the terrain tools whenever possible.

It still crashes inexplicably, no matter how gentle you are, but that's Data's fault, not TLB's

Wouldn't a floating brain do the trick? it' shouldn't be capable of attack or defense (aside from the brain functions, of course), and be able to hover in place, and move with the directional keys. A n example would be shook's drones.

Unnya!
Even with my Dual Core,it's still crashy T-T.
And i was having fun 'sploding their body parts one by one with the burster.....
Also,what about a tool that converts enemy actors into your own?
