Larvae run under grilles

Post by outordinary » 26 Jan 2016, 18:28

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):
Allow larva to run under grilles like they do with doors.
Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):
Imagine waiting on a Join as Alien verb timer when you suddenly spawn as a larva smack dab in the middle of the Dropship with angry marines. I escape them and try to run through a hole in the grille and mangle it instead. Continue until said angry marines kill me in one shot.
Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):
More realistic seeing as the larva has the diameter of a rat and probably the same skeletal structure. Grilles have many holes in them about the same size. Better survival chance against terrible odds.
Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):
Code it the same as door squeezing is.

Might be easier to have them go under the grilles the way runners can move under tables and barricades rather than squeezing under doors, at least code-wise.

Especially if they become edible after being fried by grilles.

Erm... When, exactly, would a larva even come across a grille blocking it's way? They're usually blocked by glass in the first place.

Marines secrete grilles the way xenos secrete resin.

Like I said in my little story, I burst from a marine on the dropship, slipped under the doors to the LZ, proceeded to get blocked by the large grilles, ended up dying while trying to break the large grille.
