Re: Legio Machina [WIP] [minor update]
Neuro wrote: I'm having some annoying trouble with an ACrab... the legs keep sinking into the ground! They are outstretched and look fine in the air and in the actor viewer, though. It seems when I moved the foot Y vector up it helped, but then the legs were all bent up and it didn't walk too well. I've seen some great long-legged actors in other mods, what's the secret? How do I stop it sinking into the ground? You should just post the Acrab to let the pros fix it.

Tried that to no avail... it seems to just sink in there without even detecting the legs until a certain point:

Re: Legio Machina [WIP] [minor update]
I'd like these better if the 'faces' were different colors from the rest, and if the armor was a little darker and more varied in hue. Right now, they look like sapphire statues, and I don't really like the look.

Re: Legio Machina [WIP] [minor update]
Ah, yeah, I figured that a while ago. This new unit is looking awesome! Expect an update with the Praetorian fairly soon

Re: Legio Machina [WIP] [PRAETORIANS!]
I like how it jumps. It looks like a squid swimming
Is it possible to shoot off the legs of this thing though? i cant seem to hit them

Re: Legio Machina [WIP] [PRAETORIANS!]
Ah, thanks for that. I'd taken out the entry/exit wounds for some reason, making legs pretty much invincible. Uploading the fixed .rte now

Mech is awesome. Progress on Trojan horse ACrab/ACDropship?

Re: Legio Machina [WIP] [PRAETORIANS!]
I likes, the only problem would be the praetorian's leg, they tend to be jumpy, and sometimes they just suddenly stumbles down and stop moving.

Re: Legio Machina [WIP] [PRAETORIANS!]
All ACrabs do that, walking in this game is very iffy.
*edit* I think it might also be to do with buggy terrain detection, like they think there's land a bit in the air so they don't extend their legs, which leads to them falling over.
