By removing one leg from the ACrab actor, could you then make a tripod? It wouldn't walk very well (nor would it with 4 legs) bu it would be awesome! Im just not good at all those walking paths, and other paths, and im already making a mod. But is it possible

then it would just fall over. not like they work perfectly with four legs anyway.

If only we knew how to mess with walkpaths, we could a heck of alot more then we are now.

If we did know how to mess with walkpaths, we could just set it so the 2 legs walk in the same way, hey presto, illusion of 3 legs, but like CC said above, it would topple over.

You could do it with three legs, yes.

But consider, this is a 2D game.
Therefore you'd need to have 2 legs on one side and one on the other.

Now let's say we're talking about a tall tripod, like the Half-Life strider (because, honestly, there's no point make "Crab" sized tripods because you wouldn't notice.

You might have the stroder walking around on a hill lasering things or something, and there's this one clone in front of you that you want to kill.



But then this skeleton comes up behind you with a flak cannon.
Now you have two options, you leave the skeleton alone and kill the clone.



Then you are blown up by the exploding flak

OR, you turn around to kill the skeleton.



Then it shoots you in the front leg.
Oh dear.



You can't balance on those two legs there, so you fall over and become useless.
Then the skeleton blows you up.

just make the legs invicible and the pod destroy able like in halflife. Then you could use them to something

Well, I do know how to mess with walkpaths.

2 legs falls over.

3 legs works if you know what you are doing.

But they always stick straight out infront of you,
and look silly,everytime before they take a step.

And I of all people know how much this forum cares about cosmetics.

I think he's getting at making striders.

It would only work if the legs, as said in a post above, were insanely strong compared to the head.

What if the 2 legs were at the front?

I can imagine a crab standing on 2 legs, though it might struggle slightly.

Invisible midget dangly leg (Think Scary movie 2) + 3 other uber legs?
