alright i posted this thread to let you modders know how this mod could be done..here i will answer some questions that i thought about last night....

for those of you that dont know....this mod/map idea is basicly a defense from antlions. all the players are on a team and defend the house/base from antlions.

someone stated in the other thread (a great mod idea) ,about how the lag would be so bad becuase of the server having to spawn all the antlions...

one way you could spawn the antlions, ive expeiremented in spawning them on templev1 map last night, the admin enters sv_cheats 1 in the console, and then binds a key to npc_create npc_antlion. he disables the AI, all the players are set up inside a base. he creates all the antlions, and then once everyone is ready he enables the ai agian.

when i expeiremented with this last night, the ant lions would not attack anything, they just ran around like retards. so someone would have to program the antlions to attack.

You used 3's instead of e's in the thread title. That pretty much well invalidates the thread instantly. Sorry.

More like a 12 year-old CS player, but whatever.

Sounds like an interesting idea, but too cumbersome to actually be worthwhile. It needs to be more like Invasion from UT2004. No admin to start things, just level after level of waves of antlions. Although even that would get pretty boring quite quickly.

the dude said 3's instead of e's invalidates my thread...but hopefully people would take the time to read what i posted in the original post and maybe put their two cents in?
 
Yea i think you need to enable coop 1 and ai_disable 0 I can't get antlions to attack in MP.

Nice spam.

Anyway, from what I've seen the AI is not loaded at all for npc's in multiplayer, they just generally stand around. I even spawned a strider and using ent commands gave it a target and it just sat there and started at me. :-\

hopefully someone good at making mods will tell us how to load the ai?

You obviously didnt see the question mark I put after that. This indicates that I was suggesting a reason as to why he hasnt got a responce.

Try reading next time, it helps. :rolling:

you're right my bad. sorry
 
meh, rip of ut2k4's invasison mutator,

and it does get old quick

and the way you are trying to implement it is absurd, sv_cheats 1? comon, once the admin (who happens to be sitting at his server 24/7 babysitting the mod to make sure the antilions spawn properly) turns cheats on, i would go to console, god, impulse 101, and be done with it, i would never lose..

well i think if someone would beable to pull it off in hl2 it would be alot cooler...exspecially seeing all the dead antlion bodys....something about a real warlike scenery makes me urgle.

and then the admin would call you a llamma, ban you, and password his server. your the kind of person we dont need playing games.

edit, i got you wrong sorry..... hopefully someone would have a good way to spawn the lions.
