Post Animal mods?
Hey is it possoble to make animals? If so the animals could be deer,sloths,spiders,scorpions,monkeys,hippos,and lions or lynx. I just thought that would be cool and alot of animals of different viriaty would be cool right?, But m not a modder or whatever so I wouldnt know. :)
(pm me if this is a good idea or if you could try to make it or just help)
ok lynx isnt such a good idea but any modern animals or maby even a hunting mod!!!!! :D
-Moved
Please post things like this in requests or mod making, in the future.

I always, ALWAYS wanted some more wildlife in CC. The planet seems so dead except for a bunch of crabs.

And yes, it is totally possible. Simply by using an ACrab as the base and you can make all the four-legged animals you want. And probably more creative alien lifeforms as well.

The only problem is if anyone is interested in making them.

The jumper is in the wildlife.rte, and it's entirely functional, just not in use, if you're interested in that.

Thanks! But I was expecting wildlife that actually do something, not just stand around and take space up.

Hmm...

Give me ideas and you might even see them in official content.
Right now I see what you mean, local wildlife that will claw you if you threaten it or go teabagging its nest for no apperant reason. And things like predators and some live plants that might produce something useful even.

Right now I'm looking at super metroid, that has some really good examples.
Like Kraid or Ridley, those would be nice wildlife, no?

You actually got a nice idea there numgun, is it so that we can expect more varied and dangerous wildlife in the next builds to come?

in that case, there should be an own actor class for animals other than ACrab.

EDIT: for wildlife, i THINK you can flip an actor by making it's body sideways and not allowing it to pick up things by removing it's hands and replace them with feet. Just an idea.

Ideas, I did thought of one long ago. The thread is dead now but whatever.

This wildlife is a kind of bug. Actor or ACrab would do. The bugs start with an immobile queen bug, which is a bomb that your actors can hold (should be animated to make it look alive). You can plant the queen anywhere on the map, and after some time, it turns into a nest.

The nest will have emmiters on it, spawning worker bugs at a constant rate, and they'll run around the map. You can use a digger to 'harvest' the bugs because they gib gold when they die, making them an easy source of money. (A crude explanation for this would be they leech gold from soil to build nests)

It would be kinda stunning to see a parasite turn your troops against you.

Couldn't that be made by making a crab with a mounted converter weapon on top of it?

I see a Scrab actor in my near future... with jaws as a weapon!

For other wildlife... let's try some Facehuggers, Aliens, hmmmm ZERGS! and starship trooper bugs. Maybe Edgarbug from MIB if anybody's willing.
