I like that idea, make it have a velocity that makes it go downwards, but enough so it won't hit the ground on grasslands.

That's a bad idea really. It would just smash the thing into ground on most maps.

Well just a bit then. Like make it fall about 5 pixels then start floating.

Got the drones to work nicely so I released them. I got a little lazy so the sprites are pretty much the same.

That's actually a neat idea... think of technicals, or a massive land fortress with many turrets... Basically make an ACrab 'tank' and make a 'shotgun rider' turret... insta-driveby madness for everyone!

This has become more of a lua tech demo thing for me than an actual serious mod, so I might not really make them sprites. Plus I'm a pretty bad spriter.
Also, I managed to make the swarmer check for line of sight when choosing it's target. It needs some tweaking still, but I'll propably update with it in a few days. Currently I'm making a radiation bomb thing that sets anythigns hp to -1 when it blows up in 500 pixel range. It also has a fine feature of going only 100 pixels inside solid stuffs using the line of sight technique. Too bad I can't get it to work for some weird reason.

Updated. The swarmer works pretty reliably now, and the kill everything-bomb became a teleportation nade, which is infinitely cooler.

Does it always explode like that when you teleport? Its kinda nasty getting your feet full of shrapnel. : 0
Btw really awesome stuff in this package. Vortex gun is just so badass to use and the missiles are plain cool.

I've just discovered something kinda cool: you can use the slave chip from mail2345's LuaTech mod on your gun drones, meaning that you can control the movement of the drop ship part from the turret part, so you can fly around WHILE shooting stuff.

The explosion ignores the user so you wont get hurt. But eceryone else will. It's a feature in GibThis I discovered when looking at the docs.
Edit: I'll take a look at the slave chip now.

I managed to modify my code so it reads from self.gun instead of the player actor:
Code:
   local i = 1
   while  i < 43 do
   if self.gun:GetController():IsState(i) then
   self:GetController():SetState(i,true)
   end
   i = i + 1
   end
   self:SetAimAngle(self.gun:GetAimAngle(false)))
     end

Should do the trick.

I'm having a problem with the swarmer missiles detonating very prematurely, anyone else got this? : /

Also, I wish the drones wouldn't drift to the left xD
