Completely re-did Lua on this thing (again), now it's more (more) like the Halo needler.


*If this gif looks like it's in slow-mo, it is. Also the gif is old.

New Features:
-Rectangular detection system
-Needles stuck on the same object will explode at the same time
-bug fixes
-changed some sounds

Features to do:
-Lazier homing.

Considering you made this, why not make the entire halo arsenal of weapons XD

it looks like it could benefit from lazier homing (like Halo's) and some glow on the needles

Some added glow would seem appropriate for this mod, sorta like Whitty's needler.

Come to think of it that would be good to add (Glow that is)

Err, I already made this.

(It's near the bottom)

True (Didnt really go through many mods =S)

I know you already made it whitty, but I didn't like the sprite. It was too small. And I don't like having glows in my mods, they just seem like they cover up good sprites in the game with eye-burning colors.

Hmm... You should have made them MOSRotaings that explode on contact. With a cool Halo-esque explosion.

They are MOSRotatings that explode on contact. Just with a barely visible explosion, and a sort-of Halo-esque explosion sound.

I like the way it acts, and looks. Therefore, I like it.

The only thing I dont like (But can and will easily deal with) is the super shard turning

Superior Needler is superior, but maybe if you get the time you might look into changing the bullet sprite.

This could use some further improvement.

For one, the needles exploded after a time delay while being stuck to actor.
And two, add a small purple glow.

So make the needles home in and when they are very close to the actor, they get stuck on him
and after a delay of 2-3 seconds, the Lua script will do a GibThis(); on the needles.

And the homing is far too strong, whittys homing was less powerful, and more true to the original concept.
