Pvt.Reaper 8 Posted May 19, 2013 (edited) So what's the deal with the Zombie Aliens? Are they literally undead Aliens or just Aliens that use the zombie logic? What's the exact difference between the bloodseekers and the spookers? Also aren't their eyes supposed to glow in the dark?

Richie 330 Posted May 19, 2013 Exellent work IceBreakr :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
icebreakr 3157 Posted May 19, 2013 Gen.Reaper: see the readme for all the info. They are the aliens that use "hunt" FSMs and are able to take down players in suprise. Differences are mentioned in the readme too (rtfm). Basically two bloodseekers use different logic (one more agressive than other, but other is much more stable and less prone to object clipping) and spooker usually doesn't even engage enemy but just lurks around nearby and spooks.

ryanbeckey0 1 Posted May 19, 2013 hey, awesome release :) how to disable the alien vision for human players? I noticed if 1 player is a zetborn, all the other players get alien vision even if they are on a different side/faction Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
icebreakr 3157 Posted May 19, 2013 Sturm: it is strictly forbidden to use mod in A3. Stated in readme. Ryan: yuck, we thought we eliminated that bug... No chance right now, dont use aliens for players yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ryanbeckey0 1 Posted May 19, 2013 alright :) also the AI zetaborn air, apart from the mothership the other two aircraft are reluctant to engage ground targets, tanks etc. maybe add a movable turret like the alien heavy tank has to the aircraft? also love the new bloodseeker AI adds a great fear factor to the game Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No chance right now, dont use aliens for players yet. A quick look in the zetaborn init, this might solve the issue currently you guys use: if (!isPlayer _caller) exitwith {}; but you might want to use instead: if (player != _caller) exitwith {}; Which will check if the player is the Alien the script is running on, and exit if it isn't.

krycek 349 Posted May 19, 2013 Had a run with them and although I like the improved models I will sure like if it was possible of course to add the old models too. Other than this I have a small bug with the tanks.They flip up way to easy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pvt.Reaper 8 Posted May 19, 2013 Wow Bloodseekers are scary as fuck when you're playing on a night mission without NVGs and unarmed because you never know when they're going to pop out and get you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ranwer135 308 Posted May 20, 2013 Wow Bloodseekers are scary as fuck when you're playing on a night mission without NVGs and unarmed because you never know when they're going to pop out and get you Very true...If they try to pop out and get me in the game.
