Mod Ideas/X3Pak

X3Pak

X3Pak???

Yeah, I'm considering modifying the XXXPak's name to X3Pak to avoid the annoying Roman Numeral-biased pr0n detectors.

I'm adding this page as a scratch paper to organize some thoughts on the current list of mutators in the x3pak for the upcoming release. Wiki types should feel free to scribble as well.

New Mutators

Health/Armor Station: JaF0's idea, I think. Replaces the Armor and some Health pickups with stations to recharge instead. A basic armor station is working, I just need to expand on it.

Type Protection: Stop type killing in it's tracks. When you're typing, you're invulnerable. Trying to make it so that it's not an exploit now

Reality Config: Easy selector to make the game more realistic, arcade or anime like.

MAR Rifle: A highly accurate rifle, capable of headshots and knocking the weapon out of someone's hands. Some kinks to still work out - but mostly there.

Shield Rifle: A version of an idea from I think it was Kel, which replaces the impact fire with actual fire. Haven't started.

Blood Money: I started BM in order to test out some theories on how to rewrite some stuff in Freehold. It's a mutator which will give you money for kills, store the value on the server and let you spend it on a completely configurable list of weapons, ammo and items/powerups. EDIT: Blood Money is almost certainly going to be a mutator included with Freehold instead of the X3.

Major Updates

Night Vision is getting competely reworked to make things more visible and less eye strain.

Fixing the Minigun HE's network issues.

I think I have a way to make Skeleton Crew work online. I might make it work so that you can use different models as well (turn everyone into a robot...) UPDATE: Yeah, I have Skel Crew working online, but not a configurable version just yet.

All of the config screens are going to get updated and reworked.

As usual Burning Man will probably get the rewrite...

Comments/Suggestions/Notations

Alex AC: not a mutator, its my name ^_^ anyhow what bout a high speed spider thing, also i would like some sort of gun that creates a black hole, or otherwise messes around with gravity.

RegularX: a high speed spider might be an idea. A black hole device is coming out for ChaosUT, I suspect, but random gravity warp might work....
