Post Intruder Alert! A Tripwire Alarm Suggestion.
For example, on large maps, you might not always be keeping a close eye on your brain. You might put guys there to defer the enemies, but even a Darkstorm Turret can die, and it might just happen when your not looking. So, i thought of making a Fence, or a Pole or something, so that when enemies walk past it, it makes an easily recognizable sound and you immediately switch to it and drop a guy down before its too late.

Since i fail at lua, I'd never be able to do this by myself, actually, i wouldn't even make the sprite. This isn't something too impossible i'd say. I have no idea about lua but it'd probably be like
If Actor: X:5 Y:5 then play base.rte/sounds/alarm.wav or if Actor Team = 1 then Play Base.rte/Sounds/Silent.wav

Actually, A tripwire alarm is pretty easy. There was the exact same thing for B22. But it was on the ceiling. And it was very loud :(

Though, a ACTUAL tripwire could be helpful...

Someone made a robot that released a horrible sound when it died.
That is the closest anyone ever came to this, as far as I know.
This should be in requests.

I would like a whole home base security system.
Like, to tell if a door is broken down... security sensors for the brain room, etc...

Hmmm...I could release MY alarm. But, its glitchy. And the sound it makes is a Air Horn thats sounds like its held up to your ear.

Coalition guy enters the base.

You have ear phones on and can't see the soldier.

Next you notice, your out of your seat shaking like a leaf and deaf for 10 minutes.

Unitec has alarms. Theyre near the turrets.

Yeah, it has a weapon that causes only sound and fires whenever it sees an enemy. Had it for a while I think.

The UniTec one works very well. It even acts as a diversion.
