Huggers On Supply Crates

Post by Desolane900 » 29 Apr 2016, 21:01

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): Make huggers automatically go to the top of the stack when under those crates you can only open with a crowbar.

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): It'll make it so those select few xenos that, instead of putting huggers in lockers, put huggers under supply crates can't do that anymore.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc): It's obvious rule dodging since hiding huggers falls under the hugger stacking rule and I've had times where there will be 3 or more under a crate. Just stop.

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it): Code I assume?

Its blatantly annoying with aliens hiding huggers under stuff and in lockers, we have no way to tell if they are there or not unless we right click which we rarely do. Going to +1 simply tired of the fact that aliens still put 3+ huggers under shit still.

I thought you were talking about how that hugger came out of the supply crate in alien vs predator 2.

Marine vs Predator Duels:
Predator Wins: 0
Predator Ties: 1 [Pred bleeded to death and decap'd me at the last sec. Had no AP D:]
Predator Lost: 0

There are rules against that, only 2 huggers can be put on a tile.

If it happens every hugger on the server gets deleted. People shouldn't be risiking it.

And huggers under things is our version of mines. Mines are essentially an instakill to T1s, and a death sentence to any caste if there are marines nearby. We have 2 huggers alone, which can only take down one marine, and huggers can be taken off with minimal damage. Mines are AOE, high damage.

Then it could be if you put more than two huggers under a crate or in a locker, it would show above.

Need someone to check to see if huggers go on top of lockers or are still underneath them so we can see if this thread is still relevant or not.

But seriously, does uh, anyone know the way out?!
