Hey! - i would love to see a mod where this event would potentially fire (rare)


one side of the map (outside) will begin spawning a number of small aliens worms (like the boomrat perhaps but not explosive)

this aliens task is to reach another side of the map and exit -  BUT

the alien will change direction and go for ANY living thing and attack it - if it kills it (that dead body will be turned into more aliens (that also wanna exit the map - AND go for living targets and continue the evil circle)

the event could perhaps start with a random critter on the map exploding into a new alien that then try to get out of the map - perhaps even a random colonist

suddenly you are stuck with the choice of avoiding them hustling to save your colonists or standing your ground and hope you dont make a yummy alien treat as they scurry off.

oh thats lovely that arachnid.

was thinking more "aliens" - with the the more aliens per (creature) taken down.

So by aliens, do you mean the chestburster variety?
I like how this game can result in quotes that would be quite unnerving when said in public, out of context. - Myself

for instance yes - though would settle for just a alien that kills something = one extra alien.

though a whole alien life cycle would be badass hehe

Or turn your colonist into an alien that can regenerate a bit more faster then normal humans can, also has higher health, since its a rare event

I've never tried modding this game but I believe I'll try now. I'm thinking of some greys, tall whites, and reptilians. Maybe each with different attributes.

"Eating alien meat" is a whole 'nother thing in my dirty, dirty mind.

If you search the forum for that last three-word-phrase (include the comma), you'll see my other posts where it applies. As of this posting, there are 3 posts including that one. I vow to add more :D
