Does this require Project Armory or is it stand alone?

stand alone
The only problem is that a flock of arachnids cuts base very quickly. I decided to remove from his game this mod. Anyway, until the time when the turret will shoot the arachnids.

This is a lot of fun and not too tough once you get a way of dealing with the bug horde worked out. Its extra meat now.

[Evul]

Is it less meet now?

I found if they are stack together, nothing can stop them, doors can't even affect their movement speed for a bits :<
But I really like this mod.. if it's possible to not to let them stack on one block?

[Evul]

Are they running right thro or are they ripping the door?

It ripped, it's a group about 30-40 I think.
I stack three blast door for defense propose, the first blast door held for a few hits, but since they are spawn in a close formation, they pass it like there're no doors exist ;-;

Kinda like the attachment, their speed will increase when the group are bigger↓

Lol xD

Would you recommend me to lower the damage they deal or changing the amount spawned?
Or do you have another solution?

(I do want a custom AI file for the bugs but can't program one...)

Actually... I'm not sure ;-;
I noticed these bugs sometime find a cover.. so AI could be a solution.. like if they will plan to attack from more direction, or spread on a wider formation, but it may took many works to do it..
Sadly I don't see any mod or vanilla things using collision detect on any alive things, otherwise it could be a good solution by limit the game can only allow 2-5 alive things on one block, but I think it could be a core issue, so if no one using it.. it could be not exist in this moment ;-;

Well.. the similar thing is the draft person will not have a pathfinding, but I think it's on the player side, unless itself is a pathfinding mode allow to choose by AI mode?

Uh.... the high damage is good, just like the movie, I don't want it to be too low.
And the amount could be lower slight I think, make it more like a bug scout squad until player will start meet a whole group with 40 pirates xD

Thx for the feedback!

This mod is really cool.  I love Starship Troopers.  Might I suggest allowing towers to target the bugs.  The last few games a swarm of 30-40 bugs wipe me out and my towers just sit there.  At least allow the option.

Good work on your mod.
