Complex order (Word of the queen based)
Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):
Make the orders given by the queen have a menu like the word of the queen.
Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):
It'll allow the queen to enrich her orders with more constructive rules, a better UI and an overall easier-to-read approach in some scenarios.
Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):
The queen would be writting down a serie of orders in her 'textbox'... After a moment, she simply throws the orders there and ground-rules are established.
EXAMPLE:
Children, here is a set of rules you must follow at all time:
- Warrior caste scout and hunt in pack.
- Sentinel support when we're not defending or retreating.
- Builder, SPREAD THE WEEDS AND MAKE THE HIVE GREAT AGAIN!
Furthermore here's my rules for the reminder of this infestation:
1) [...]
You don't need more, you probably get the idea.
Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):
Take the textbox from the word of the queen and apply it to the queen's orders. Afterward, simply adjust the code to fit the Byond window for the orders.

CM was obviously inspired by Starcraft: Ghost opening. At least when marines takes too long to deploy.

I never play aliens but this sounds like a good idea, I'm hesitant to give a +/- on it though given my lack of experience as a xeno.

You will never be as bad as the baldie who picked up a tactical shotgun while a hunter was pouncing on top of a CMO for 4 seconds, with his only response being to pace around before being decap'd by said hunter. You are not Brett Kimple, and you never will be. You are not the reason why I regular MP.

Given that I didn't give a +1 or -1, that is already the case.Crab_Spider wrote:Perhaps you should sit this one out.
