Change squad armory lockers to EVA lockers

Post by Tristan63 » 11 Mar 2016, 11:50

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): ok so the marine lockers are the click open kind. My idea is to resprite the lockers to look like real marine lockers, and you click and a menu comes up similar to the Eva locker menu and you can open and take you're gear out that way. And maybe add in named lockers for those people that could have their donor gear.

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): add in some levels of immersion from the real movies. And make it easier to get certain items and hide loot in for later

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):change the lockers to resprited Eva lockers scripted to hold people's donor items etc when they spawn(at round start your assigned locker would be random unless your are a specialist or SL)

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):lots of recoding but it doesn't look impossible.

+1 maybe? I'm not completely sure code wise, but wouldnt having EVA dispenser style lockers reduce lag a wee bit by reducing items spawned on maps? Its about 100 marine lockers worth of items generated, consisting of 7ish items. Maybe having EVA lockers that only the locker items on request might do something? Lorewise, it might fit a wee bit better and look a bit better as well?

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

I'm not sure how this would be more accurate to lore or why it's really necessary. Denied to lack of interest.
