@Peikko: Hmm. Are you using Mac or Windows? If the former, then i may/may not have found another Mac incompatibility. Anyways, try re-downloading first, and if that doesn't work, give me a nudge and i'll see if i can fix it.

@RaggedDruid: Lizard speaks the truth; you can't. Not right now. I think i'll try making it so it flips around like AHumans or ACrabs, though. Can't be that hard.

@NaXx: Awesome, thanks. Glad to hear you're having fun with it.

Edit: Right, newly devised control system works great, and it looks a lot better too. Once i've shoved it into the Lua of all the drones, i'll release the update so all of you can enjoy facing left as well. :U

Edit2: Hmm, horizontal flipping seems to cause problems with attached emitters. Dunno if i can fix that. I hope i can. >.>

what

It's the time it takes for Shook to make another pack the size of this with different content.

Yeah, plus/minus 6 months, depending on how many ideas i have. =P

Anyways, updated. Tried fixing the issue that Peikko pointed out, and also gave the control system of all drones a much needed overhaul. It looks and functions a lot better, AND you can flip around horizontally, allowing you to shoot to the left(!!!). Heavy Pyro Drone had it's projectile velocity increased, in order to avoid shooting itself during movement as well.

Will you please start saying whats new.... I see the update March 20th 2010 but don't see anything new.

He said what he worked on right above you.
For goodness' sake, read the most recent post in the thread.

NNNNNGGGGGGGGGGG

It's written 5 centimeters above your own post. Seriously, that must be the epitome of human laziness. But, just because i am such a nice guy, i'll give you a list.

- Drones are now flown via Lua which works and looks a lot better and allows you to flip horizontally. That means you can shoot left now.

Longest list ever.

Can you plese tell me if it is possible to make a change direction button? So that i could fly left and shoot right, pless a button and still fly left while shooting left?
Also, is there a way to make bombs explode in midair? Some of them would really benefit from that(e.g. fillers, clusters)

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!

Also, yes, that would be possible if shook wanted to do that.

tap the opposite arrow key quickly

tadaa

I guess i could make something like the firing key locking the horizontal orientation, but then it'd require you to release the firing key if you were to flip around, which isn't very practical. Might give it a shot a bit later.

Also, the bombs in the new pack will feature timed detonation. Ain't gonna fiddle with these.

Hmmm... The gas drone doesn't seem to fly. I havent had this problem with any of the other drones, but the gas drone seems to be uncontrollable. It just falls out of the sky...

Hmm, that it does. I see why, though. It uses a Lua script that isn't in the Drones folder, so i missed it when i was implementing the new control system. I've fixed it now, so hold on a sec while i upload the fixed version.

Edit: Right, done. Gas Drone should function properly now.

Has anyone noticed that the Reflective Sphere is the most deadly thing in this, or in fact most, mods? Why spend 3 hours digging a tunnel the normal way, when this baby can excavate a better one in 10 minutes, and go in and raep everything at the other end to boot?

i really like the pyro glob, the tuna cannon and the headguys


the couple of problems i've seen, is that the AI fires the tuna cannon like a regular gun, most of the time causing themselves to die, is there any way you can make them fire in an arc?

also the sun tuba sometimes feels like not damaging enemies. no idea why.

love this mod, but zero division cannon needs to obliterate the particles it leaves behind, thus no lag! and then my friend and i can see whose base survives cause we could shoot that thing non stop, also the assualt bot is jumpy like he has adhd, increase some mas and decrease walk speed im thinking
