Introducing: The Phoenix Potion! Throw the potion at yourself or another actor to turn them into a phoenix.

Activating the potion:



Aquiring the Phoenix Self-Destruct Pistol:



Self-destructing and re-birth:


From the Potion label: The chemicals in this potion give you the mighty power of the re-incarnating Pheonix! Works on bipeds and crab-based actors. Bipeds recieve a suicide "Phoenix Respawner" pistol to respawn. To self-destruct a crab with the phoenix effect, press crouch and jump at the same time.

Updates:

-Phoenixes can be thrown off the map borders without complications

Gibbing into yourself with Lua?

DL'd.


*EDIT*
This is amazingly fun.

This should be called a phoenix down.
But then again, you kill yourself with a pistol.

Does it work only once? I certainly should hope not.

It respawns you what seems like an unlimited number of times and is great.
But it has 1 problem.

Why did you make the suicide pistol 1 handed?!

I dunno, maybe because pistols are one-handed?

I was expecting this,

but the mod turned out to be cool anyways. YGMDL.

Well there's the problem that you can't use other 1 handed weapons, and maybe when you died you could generate a forcefield or something around the character that destroys terrain? Because if you get trapped underground it lags massively and you can't do anything.

Edit: Strangely when i tried to get a suicide bot to die by smashing itself into the wall it just created 2 copies of itself when it died...

Almost insta-DL. Not quite insta, but almost.
EDIT: And awsome. I should have downloaded sooner.

I would have done this if I wasn't lazy. Anyway, instadl here.

Minor updates. Now the terrain your bidy takes up is removed when you re-birth. The suicide pistol is also not one handed, so you can use other pistols and stuff.

Nice to see such a quick response. Thanks for taking the suggestions into account.

Now this mod is even more epic

The ACrab Lobbyist Organization demands ACrab representation in this mod. ACrab Pheonix Potions, por favor!

Just the thing i wanted!. But it seems familiar!?

Zillmore - zalo made a Phoenix Robot and clone, but not something that turns an actor into a phoenix.

Rawtoast - I might have to make a seperate potion for this, since I'm not sure how to transfer "ClassName" to the create function.
