Alien donation items

[TheTylerLee]

Personally, I exclusively play alien (Observe on round start). I'd like to donate for some alien items.

Obviously aliens do not wear clothing so their choices would be limited, so instead of clothing we could have nice skin colors, with maybe stripes and whatnot.

Thanks.

That's not impossible to do, just much more difficult than spawning an item in a backpack.

[UnknownMurder]

Aliens having a special skin? I'll give you all my loving to you!

[Minimike]

That'd be pretty cool, but what happens when you evolve?

[Commander Cookies]

Maybe skins for certain castes. Such as the alien warrior, remember that one xeno that nearly died but that net the predator shot at it? Perhaps something along those line

[TopHatPenguin]

I love this idea D

[TheTylerLee]

That'd be pretty cool, but what happens when you evolve?

I was thinking either 5$ for a caste, or 5$ for individual aliens

Whatever the devs decide i suppose

Aliens DO have slots for their head and chest... never figured out what they were there for but they show up on the UI. Maybe just make some sort of clothing item to go into those slots?

[apophis775]

I suppose, we could make custom colored aliens.

[SecretStamos (Joshuu)]

If you can figure out how to implement it, I'd be happy to do some spritework for it.

inb4 aliums with rainbow stripes and clown masks

+1 Custom Colored Aliens should be awesome. It should be per specified by the donor caste and/or specific type. And should be obviously within the reasonable limits aka NO RAINBOW ALIUMS!

1 word.

clown alien

[razerwing]

Alium Santa!

[TopHatPenguin]

Alium Santa!

The Marines would get instant brain damage if they saw that o.0

Add longer tentacles for the chest slot and for the head, some green battle scars or additional side spikes on the chin.

[Void00]

Add longer tentacles for the chest slot and for the head, some green battle scars or additional side spikes on the chin.

So basically a mini-illythid , or a mini-cthulhu ?

[Newnermul123]

give aliens cat ears and cat tails.
Give aliens a clown costume
give aliens battle armor
give aliens tentacles
give aliens robotic limbs
give aliens a Daft punk visor
give aliens a marine costume so they can disguise themselves (unsuccessfully)
give aliens a Facehugger hat
give aliens a Xeno costume


the possibilities are endless!

[Raikyh]

Give aliens everything that ruins immersion and atmosphere, amirite?

[Newnermul123]

of course its a joke. but having aliens have some cool stuff would be neat.

Like battlescars and stuff

[coroneljones]

I can finally make an angry alien

[HighwaterOffical]

Aliens with Battle Scars, Extra Spikes, Thicker Chitin, Yellow/Red teeth, Maybe animated invisible items, Like a clear spot on the aliens that can allow visuals of the blood moving through them, Or maybe Runners, or Smaller aliens could have certain parts of their body removed/skeletonized?

[speedybst]

@razor: From what i've been told, the head/chest slots are to do with their armoring and for things such as the electropack.
This would be interesting, if you implement...

[razerwing]

Armoring? And you can put electropacks on those things? If only we had electropacks on the Sulaco... though I'm curious as to how a Xeno would get armoring.

[speedybst]

i'm not sure if the same, since we changed the alien code to a very large degree, but i believe it was to do with their ability to soak damage like the HoS trench coat. It was basically a placeholder, if i recall correctly. Apophis would be able to tell you for sure.
