Yautja Prey Tracking
Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): Add a visible marker like a impregnated symbol replaced with a target symbol that only Yautja can see to a selected xeno/marine so one can easily distinguish and identify them.
Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): This would allow more easy, and accurate prey stalking/hunting as a Yautja.
Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc): It would work by allowing any Yautja to easily separate that one target from everyone else.
Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it): Magikal Coawdeng. player.additem.YautjaTarget (fallout joke)

Re: Yautja Prey Tracking
Would create a dynamic process that would cause further lag and I'm personally in to search and destroy my preys. No fun in knowing where your prey is when you can technically dance around anyone's defenses and kick their asses.

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

Re: Yautja Prey Tracking
This actually wouldn't cause lag at all. But I had some ideas on how to change predator vision in the first place, though not sure when or if that will happen.

Re: Yautja Prey Tracking
+1 very good.
I think i know a good way to use the pred tracker installed. You get a device that locks on the prey you press on with the device, and then have like a pinpointer tracker device thiny.

+1, and it will help let other Predators know if prey is taken by another Predator.
Honestly, it'd be similar to the sechud code, right? The way you can add a criminal to the database, and all?

Something along these lines, but in SS13. Specifically how the vision works and looks.ParadoxSpace wrote:Tell us more?

Yea, something like that. Like a unique sechud that allows you so single out someone/something.Boltersam wrote:+1, and it will help let other Predators know if prey is taken by another Predator.

Re: Yautja Prey Tracking
A repurposed sechud is exactly what I had in mind. Could have different kinds of tags too: promising, worthy, shitter, avoid.

Re: Yautja Prey Tracking
I would love to have this. Also B U M P +1
