Got a bit of a problem here. The Leader appears to be uncontrollable, and does absolutely nothing besides switch inventory items. I'll switch to him, attempt to move, and fail. I can't even throw the nades. I've reinstalled the mod twice already, and it's not working.

I just press the 'previous actor' and 'next actor' keys repeatedly whenever that happens. It works for me, but I'm using the classic keyboard control configuration.

I read the description, had no idea what it did. Downloaded it anyway, and It was a clone brain equipped with an smg and multiple grenades which spawn clones which are not on either team.
I don't get it.
what's it do?
Is that it?
What's this about every-growing numbers of clones?
I R CONFUSED.

Le'me guess the torso has an attached emitter that emits more dudes infinitely?

This is really cool the squad mate can't die (if you leave their torso it keeps spawning actors, that's why I think its got the whole emitter thing)

I don't know why people keep saying amrobotics is the best modder, Zalo would beat amrobotics any day.

awesome mod,

P.S. can you post the pistol that removed 3 coalition helmets without harming them?

Edit: seems to crash if I start and he isn't selected (IE if I start while holding the next/prev actor keys the game crashes)

Amrobotics made stuff that is still considered good in build 20 even though it was made back when cortex command didn't have many good actors to use as templates. Also, I think it might crash because some sort of paradox in the coding.

I got it working.
This is hilarious.
Maybe you could make a sensible mod with this: bacteria!
the split like bacteria already, and you could make them dangerous somehow, maybe acid-gibs?
This code could go places...

Comparing those two is like comparing a lifetime supply of icecream with a Lamborghini Murcielago.
Both are awesome, just different.

The code seems just fine, and how can you get a paradox in a code, if by paradox you mean infinite loop than there is no infinite loop see for your self (The only .ini he has is the Index).

I don't think he meant that there was literally a paradox in the coding...

Well Actually, it was originally intended to be a Squadmate.

In the beginning they had a life time of 4000 (four seconds), and they it a new one every four seconds.
So the BrainHunt AIMode would refresh its path to the brain every four seconds.

And the Actual follower was holding an invisible GoodGuy that would shoot at enemies.

The problem is.... The gun turned around in the follower's hands and aimed for the followers head.
It literally looked like the clone was committing suicide (which it was).

So I made it so the CharHeight was 900 pixels in the air so the good guy in
his hands couldn't see the Green Team follower. It didn't work, it just messed
up the AI's ability to follow you.

So instead of just making a boring follower guy that didn't do anything,
I made a Multiplying clone by removing the lifetime on the actual clone.

Feel free to change it back if it suits your fancy.
