Re: Dummy Expansion
Quote: Then the whole thing freezes. Is it just me or what? I've never had this problem, has anyone else had this problem? Quote: The Heavy Dummy and the Dreadnought A both seem too blocky. Dummy-styled things use a lot of round shapes and curves. Fighter doesn't seem all that dummy-like to me in terms of sprites.
I'll fix the dummy and dread sprites but that fighter took a while to get right and I kinda like it so unfortunately, no changes there. Quote: Having a common feature between all the craft will tie them together.
That said, you don't put a massive clunky door on the bottom of your new sleek fighter just to make it fit in. Quote: Okay, I get you. But when most of the weapons you created along with most vanilla weapons simply ricochet off, it's a little too much. Because this mod seems like you were attempting Vanilla balance, I'd recommend you tone this feature down. Just my opinion. I'll make the heads normal dummy material, how's that?

Re: Dummy Expansion
Love the look of this. Definitely downloading. Not quite sure of the HUEG pods on the assault lander, though.

Re: Dummy Expansion
very god over all sprite wise .. but my transport blew up, when I ordered & the pilot went crazy & attacked my brain Attachment:
Dummies.bmp [ 441.81 KiB | Viewed 6729 times ]
I think you can fix that by putting for the actor & the heavy's walk paths are weird, he does the shuffle

Ha ha ha ha! Quote: I think you can fix that by putting
Code: Team = 0 for the actor
It's a gib of a gib so that won't work. When I can use Lua I'll see if I can fix that, but at the moment thats just how it's gonna be

Re: Dummy Expansion
I think the Phoenix was able to do that.
If you need any other help consult someone like Geti, or CaveCricket.

Re: Dummy Expansion
Actually you can have it with a set team, but then it would be set regardless of the craft's original team. As I've said, you could use Lua to make it the appropriate team though.

Re: Dummy Expansion
The sprites are absolutely amazing.
Also, about the Dummy armor and how bullets bounce off of it.
You could get rid of that and just make the big ones near indestructible as in it would take like 10 clips of the coalition Gatling gun to take it down. But you could also make a special rail rifle that is specially designed to take it down in like 4 shots and also perhaps a special type of mine or explosive. This would require Lua though so it might be out of the question.
Also, for the fighter dropship, you could have a hatch open while two turrets spray diagonally away from the hatch opening like the Aegis.

Re: Dummy Expansion
Dropship explodes because its gibImpulseLimit is set too low for its weight, it should be doubled or tripled.
I think the new actors are too hard to kill for reflecting most of the bullets.

Re: Dummy Expansion
I'm not sure if the rogue thing is a feature or just because you haven't figured out how to make it be on the team of the buyer.
Gibbing a craft which contains the actor usually solves the problem.
A+ sprites and functionality for most of the mod, seeing as the ones with less has been previously stated already.

I'll see if this works.

Re: Dummy Expansion
Update time! Quote: Dropship explodes because its gibImpulseLimit is set too low for its weight, it should be doubled or tripled.
This worked! Thanks. Dropship is now fixed. The Improved dummies head is now just Military Stuff, with a dummy alloy helmet. The heavy dummies head, walkpath and legs are fixed, will fix the rest in the next update hopefully. Made the escape pod unhittable and only gibs after 5 seconds. Have fun!
