I know there's a way we can, like, use actors as devices (or weapons or however you kids call it these days).

There could be something like a weapon that gets the nearest actor and keeps its center at a certain point of a weapon, therefore using it as a human shields!

Maybe there's some way they could go "pew pew" while you go "rush teh sploiterz!11"?

Balancing:
1) Perhaps they could only be allowed to use one-handed weapons (or too much sparkle magic so nvrmnd?)
2) Your speed is decreased in half (Any way to do this or it's really the weight of the actor + guns that determines your "speed"?)
3) Since it is a shield, you can only use the main-hand weapons. (I think, it's normal).

Wouldn't it be fun to use your enemies as shields?

There's nothing to stop you adding an actor to inventory and it working exactly as if you're just carrying it.

The Darkstorms Oni can also pick up actors and use them as meaty shields. Or meaty projectiles.

Yeah, if you want a stiff pathetic thingy.

I think meat bags with ragdoll physics and health would be so much funner to play with.

in the minor mod dump there is a super strength device for picking up and tossing actors.

Code:
AddActor = AHuman
   CopyOf = Soldier Heavy
   PresetName = Soldier Heavy + Meat Shield
   HitsMOs = 0
   AddInventory = AHuman
      CopyOf = Dafred
      PresetName = Meat Shield
      Buyable = 0
      HitsMOs = 0
Adding actors to inventory in-game takes lua to do, though. This following thing is a simple, kinda glitcchy way of doing it, but that strength implant mod is probably much better.
Quote:
* to try out held actors, first make Soldier Light not hit mos. Then put this in the console while controlling one.
Code:
A = ActivityMan:GetActivity():GetControlledActor(0); guy = CreateAHuman("Soldier Light"); guy.Team = 0; guy.Mass = 10; gun = CreateHDFirearm("Sniper Rifle"); gun.Mass = 1; guy:AddInventoryItem(gun); A:AddInventoryItem(guy);
The AI will rarely fire, due to fear of friendly fire, but it helps to have a long-barreled gun. Omg aimbot hax.
Futhermore, Image lol wut
