I really like the looks of this, but I haven't been able to use it!
It's not under bunker bits, or anything else!
I went through the code, and I don't know why it won't load.
It's added, it's buyable, everything seems to be there.
I think it's a problem with the index, but I don't know what!

it's under bunker modules or bits, I think, called klonekannon base or something like that. You place the base which looks like a green cylinder and it'll show after that.

nah, I've looked through it a thousand (hyperbole, but seriously a lot of) times!
I just looked again. There is dummy crate, then nothing.
I really wanna try this out!

Go to the klonekannon.rte, select all, copy all.
Create a new folder, call it KloneKannon.rtea, paste everything there.
Delete old folder and rename the new as KloneKannon.rte.

Seriously people, start using .rar to pack your mods.


This is really good mod. Great idea and fancy sprite.

*sigh* I didn't realise that problem was a zip file thing. I hate zips.

I say we do a massive switch to .7z format. Super compression woohoo!!

It'd shrink most of the major mods to like, 2 megs. Don't know if that's healthy or not.

Post subject:  Re: The KloneKannon

yeah except 7z is so innaccessable. it's the indie rock of the compression world. I'm cool with it, but think about how many people will be like 'wut does 7z??'

Post subject:  Re: The KloneKannon

If you people really need smaller mods just
change all .wav's into .ogg's.

I don't know. Does winRar support 7z? if so, go ahead :)

Anyways the topic is going offrails.
I'd like to suggest a strong dreadnougth-like ACrab to fire off and defend the landing zone. Doesn't need to be so mobile.

Make a bomb that spawns a teamless kamikaze actor. He can be loaded with the vanilla grenades and bomb. He would attack anybody he sees and cause general havok. Extra points for randomness and hilarity if he attacks your guys.

A fuel-air bomb would be kick ass. I'd imagine you wold just change the parachute bombs sprite, make it explode while ABOVE the ground, and make lots of flame come out. (I'd recommend copying the DarkStorm FLamethrowers Flame.)

7z supports rar, zip, etc plus it's freeware so basically if you get it you don't need winrar or winzip anymore. I've got kgb archiver and 7zip.

The new stuff is really cool, except the parachute doesn't seem to be working properly, and I don't quite understand how to load the bombs in the cannon.
