Weeds create resin walls on cave rocks when touching them

Post by saronsen » 15 Sep 2016, 19:22

Summary: When weeds spread and come in contact with rock/asteroid/cave walls/what have you, resin walls are created on them.

Benefits: Outside of minor additional protection from mining, it'll mostly be an aesthetic thing, making the caves suitably dark and resinous as a hive should be.

Details: Step 1. Weed. Step 2. Wait. Step 3. ??? Step 4. Resin Walls

Implementation: Uhhhhh

#1: I still hate you for that missing arm.
#2: Yes, but it'll require that weeds be re-coded so that they grow anywhere but tiles like space, making them create objects dependant on the tile they're on (Ground = Floor, wall = wall) imo.
CM was obviously inspired by Starcraft: Ghost opening. At least when marines takes too long to deploy.

I had a similar idea but instead of just for cave rock it would be for all walls the weeds are adjacent to the walls would recieve a resin wall overlay to create the impression of the infestation spreading.

That could also work. I was just thinking of how there's random pillars of Resin in the jungle caves, and theyre on top of cultwalls usually. Something to that effect.

A resin overlay would also be just as cool.

Solid +1 for rocks-->resin walls and 0\+1 on all walls-->resin if thsi will be purely cosmetic and possibly with another resin skin
