Flying Grunts Created 17 years ago2007-01-15 22:01:50 UTC by hlife_hotdog

This is probably a big ask, but does anyone know how to code a grunt to fly, like he has a jetpack. I anyone can help that would be great. They would probably have to act like an Alien Controller but shoots bullets instead of energy balls. By the way, since when do Alien Controllers fire large homing balls heh?

I wouldn't know how, but I doubt it would involve much more than recoding parts of the Controllers, and replacing their model with something more suitable. I've never seen it done before though, so I wouldn't think anybody would have any experience with this kind of thing, especially here (there are barely any at TWHL)

Uh, I don't know, since ever?

Well if you wantde to you could put the grunt on an invisible block, you could also move the block to make it look like he's moving but it wouldn't look to great.

Yeah, he'd have a standing posture, he wouldn't be able to shoot straight down, and he might have a weird jerkiness, as most monsters do on moving objects. The best way to do this is definitely coding.

I'm sure Muzzle or Rimrook could do it easily so maybe ask them for tips.

The only thing i saw involving grunts that was even close to flying was when in the They Hunger mods. When they whould rappel, they used a parachute instead of a rope.

That was just a model change. It was still using a monster_grunt_repel, and it did the exact same thing.
