: Okey, people. The AN plug decided to mess with my mind a
: bit by doing the charming thin where it returns to the
: main menu when tryin to load a level. So. The changes
: probable to appear in the new AN plug, at least from
: me, since I will take the liberty of handling this
: beta are: Milk Man will be reverted to his original
: self, thereby cutting lag almost in half.
: Forrest's forcefield will be modified to look the way he
: wants it.
: Joy has a few minor changes, not worth mentioning here,
: except that his collection is 1/4 the size it used to
: be.
: I am sorry to say that Ducky and his SCARI SKWERL will
: remain the same. I don't have time to untangle Sil's
: byzantine script for the squirrel.
You can easily disable the squirrel, if you want it out of the way for this week's testing--just take the "initially active" flag off whatever actions in the Ducky&Squirrel section have it on. If the actions aren't active, they don't load the CPU.
: Two new units will be added: Smeagol and Gast. Smeag is
: an all-around unit, OK in melee if he has backup. His
: ranged attack is a poison sphere that does no damage
: but paralysis any units within it's detonation radius.
: His special ability is a superfast fireball. I
: honestly have not had the time to look at Gast's unit
: yet.
: All this is assuming Sil and I can work out an updated,
: standard script to easily and painlessly append to
: levels. If not, I'll have some hard times
: a'comin'...how 'bout it, Sil?
Cake piece. The biggest hassle will be Forrest's unit, since you have to cover the map with observers and link them all to the script, but it can be done. When do you need it by?
