Sniper is no where to be seen though.


I got him all wrong so I removed him for now.

And I really have to point out that i'm not really an actor person.
I never actually got to make a worthy actor ever since I began modding, so you're most likely to be disappoint.

But I wouldn't mind to hear some suggestions that might help me figure out what I should make.

@ Lambda
Still waiting for you to explain.

Maxim, the miner is satisfactory, just churn out one more actor.

Oh, and he wants a self destruct button for the bunker modules you made.
For example if you have a deep, and vast bunker, and they have broken through your first, and third heavily armored entrances, and them to die with having to send in a costly battalion, you flip a switch, those tow entrances are destroyed, and so are the enemies.

Ohhhhh, I see...
Well... I can make bombs that you can attach to bunkermodules and detonate with the push of a button.

Thank you!

And try your best with the sniper, cause the miner looks decent enough.

Well, though I skipped like fifteen words in that example, you got it.
And the Miner does do it's action pleasantly.

It destroys your entire bunker (Or not, depends on how you'd want it I guess.) in a huge cataclysmic explosion.

I guess you'd use a central charge (Pinned Craft, maybe?) that detonates a chain of smaller explosives (Breakable objects like the lifts.) set through your tunnels.

Yeah, I got it.
I have some ideas for it, and it will most likely be placeable bombs that will detonate in a chain reaction.

Anyway, I added CCMM Activity Manager support.
Drop the following file into 'MDC.rte' and you will be able to give AI MDC equipment. Or just make it rain GunShips...
Attachment:
MMItems.txt

Will be included in next update with whatever new content that will be added.

The PresetNames in your .txt are incorrect.

MDC Compressed Air Grenade is actually MDC Comressed Air Grenade in your mod, and MDC Miner is actually MDC Miner Clone.

Nuclear missile silos. They are needed.

I was thinking maybe not to, because, well... It's a ♥♥♥♥ nuke and it can vaporize your base if you press the wrong button... But on second though, why not?
I have some interesting ideas for the bunker module...
Tell me, can doors be opened/closed using lua? Like, if a certain button if pressed?

mail2345 wrote:
I know it isn't a problem with the code itself, but the Lua engine being wonky, but once in a while under heavy load the object pointer of the silo points to random crafts. I suggest checking if the missile is actually a missile of the same team.

lolwut? I'm not really getting you here...
Are you saying it starts spawning other stuff? \:|

1. Yes. Well, I don't remember. I think you set primary action on the controller.
2. Erm it doesn't spawn other stuff, it just holds other stuff.

Fixed and reuploaded.

@ Mail
Really? I never had that before.
I'll try messing ♥♥♥♥ up and see if that happens to me too.

Some progress:

- Changed Heavy Duty Motor sprites because they were ugly - Now they are pretty and shiny.
- Made turret bases less thick - From 24px to 10px.
- Increased altitude at which Cluster Bomb detonates - 100px was way too low.
- Added horizontal setup for the Laser Door.
- Did some changes to ground Turret's base and weapon sprites.
- Did some changes to GunShip's hull sprite.
- Did some changes to Heavy Duty Door BG sprites.
- Reduced terrain rape of Turret Machineguns.
- Added CCMM Activities Manager support (MMItems.txt).
- Fixed some stupid typos.
- Added Cannon Turret to the pack.
- Added Nuclear Missile Silo to the pack - Now quite what I wanted it to be though.
- Added Mini Ceiling Turret to the pack.
- Added small animation to Plasma Cannon.
- Removed unused code and sprites.
- Tweaked EMP glow a whee bit.
- Fixed small mistake in DropShip's hull sprite - I don't know how I missed it the first time.
- Replaced shitty old Tactical Nuke sprite with shiny new one.
- Tweaked Plasma Ball glows.
- Added Ion Beam Cannon to the pack.

So yeah, that's what i've done so far.
Next update should be soon.

Anyway, I need a volunteer to help me do some limb animations for a new MDC unit.
I tried rotating sprites with PhotoShop but they came out too ugly, I need someone to do it manually.

If anyone is interested, please PM me.

Try that, it worked great for No_0ne.

I did, actually, but since my actor is only about 1.4 times bigger than a Coalition Light, the rotated sprites look very ugly and misshaped.

upsize the sprites first, then use the rotator, then you use brush tool to make out the most importan details, then downsize it and touch it up.
