Aradd
made by the light (Arjen Baarsma).
I've put all mutators I've made until now in the Aradd package. Because I'm curious what other people think of it and because I'd like to learn more about scripting from feedback I decided to put it on the internet.
Contents
Mutators:
LifeSteal
Gives you 10 health for each kill with a maximum of 199
LifeSteal Plus
Gives you 10 health for each kill with a maximum of 500
Colormatch: Red, Yellow, Green, Cyan (That's light blue, right?), Blue (Dark Blue), Purple.
Lets all actors (not only lights) give off light of the chosen colour
Regeneration
Read the tuturial and made one that works for UT (max 100)
Regeneration Plus
Duh (max 199)
Corrosion
Lose life slowly (not damage, loss of life) with a minimum of 5 (intended to be combined with lifesteal)
Corrosion Plus
Corrosion was a bit too slow for my liking
Extreme Damage
Lame name and lame mutator (Auchtime in package btw). Gives everyone unlimited UDamage. (Just copied Stealth)
Accelerating Rockets
Read some mod idea about it. Rocketspeed just rises exponentially (ever x time velocity * 1.00(something)). I Tried it, but didn't really notice anything, so I don't know if it worked.
Corpse Explosions
People explode when they die (really cool to see someone turn to gibs when you shoot his head off)
Corpse Explosions Plus
Bigger and deadlier explosio (not tested).
DeathJumps
Players make a jump (Z velocity + something) when they die.
DeathJumps Plus
They jump higher (and turn into gibs when they land (too high).
ShieldVials
The first inventory item I changed. Copied the shieldbelt so it gave 10 armor and increased its own charge when you take another one (and didn't remove other armors). Also made it look like a healthvial (I tried, but failed to change it's skin)
Loaded
Gives you all the normal UT weapons when you spawn.
Infinite Ammunition
Gives you 999 ammo every second (there must be a better way).
Darkmatch
Supposed to turn off all lights and give you a searchlight (not yet tested)
Low Friction
Duh
Low Friction Plus
Duh
Hi Speed
Changed walking speed with a factor (I don't remember right now)
Better Locking
Made a new weapon (copy of the UT_Eightball) and made it possible to lock while loading (You can start loading rockets and keep your crosshair on the enemy and lock him). Also made them fire rockets that home far better
Sniper Change: Explosive
Sniper Rifle causes an explosion where it hits.
Sniper Change: Biosludge
Ges SniperRifle. Produces sludge where it hits (nice to see sludge coming out when you hit someone's head)
SniperChange: Rockets
Not an improvement, but cool nontheless. Sniper Rifle fires rockets that home when you would have hit someone (same improved rockets as with better Locking) (Nice in face)
SniperChange: Rail
SniperRifle can shoot through walls and you see a crosshair on bots when you zoom (I just sort of copied this from the Unreal4E Railgun (but that one has a greater travel time and a limited range (I think))
SniperChange: Flaks
No more shot or decapitated damage, just an explosion like that of the alternate flakcannon fire)
Really rapid fire
Minigun fires a lot faster and deals very little damage per hit (also changed amount of ammo you get)
Discomatch
Everything is dark, but players give off nicely coloured (changing) flickering light.
Shockrifle trigger
Was supposed to enable the shockrifle to lock onto shockbolts and shoot them, but in the end I changed it so you could detonate your bolts manually.
ShockBomber
Shockrifle looks like the original (but bigger somehow (that makes it cool)) and fires bolts that stop after a while. These bolts can be shot or triggered and give Superexplosions (also explode up when owner dies or someone walks into it). Bots can't handle it btw.
MiniFlakker
Minigun fires flaks.
SpawnSkaarj
I thought I might want to spawn Skaarjtroopers in Pawnmatch levels and give them different weapons (without having to make a subclass of Skaarj), so I changed the spawnpoint actor to have it give them a weapon (so what weapon they have depends on the spawnpoint). Haven't tested this.
Enhanced Rippers
I changed the ripper in such a way that the alternate fire shoots a blade that doesn't explode, but produces many more blades. I've tested it and it's very deadly.
Frost Rilfe (Added August 23)
Turns all Shockrifle's into Frost Rifles. I didn't really like the freezer from U4E because it only really froze people when they were dead anyway, so I decided to create my own freezer. When its projectile hits there is a chance that it creates a statue that looks just like the player (Always happens if the player's killed), but with an icy texture (just like in U4E), but it also creates another one that has the player's texture, but is transparant so you can see the player through the ice. I made the player invisible and immobile and disabled his weapon until a certain time had elapsed or until he was dead (he remained invisible so there wouldn't be any corpse (just the statue) (he's visible again when he respawns)).
Gametype:
Pawnmatch
Just team deathmatch, but the teams have bases and they get extra frags for killing scripted pawn (Titan = 15 points for example). I based on the default health of the pawn (+ or - something if I didn't like the score) (so new pawn can be added). I turned Stalwart into a PawnMatch level because I was too lazy (and not good enough at mapping) to make my own maps for it.
The mod
Oops, I almost forgot adding this
