Raising the dead

Post by perrinoia »

When a necromancer comes into contact with a dead player, the dead player could be replaced (resurrected) with a zombie bot...

Zombie bots could be immune to body shots.
Zombie bots could bite/infect/poison any non necromancer player they come in contact with.
Zombie bots could roam randomly and/or straight towards their target.
Zombies could have no team allegiance, but would ignore necromancers and other zombies.

I think you would find out real quick just how many bodies can pile up on some of these maps where someone is spawn rushing over. You would have 30 bots lol

Spawn rushers usually blow themselves up, leaving no carcass to resurrect.

But there definitely needs to be an item limit for bots to prevent server crashes.

# clients + # ai < 128

Watching too much Walking Dead? I think the zombies will take over the server. If they are immune to body shots then how do you kill them?

With explosives, or head shots. they would most likely die in the cross fire

Exactly. Soul grabber would definitely be useless against the undead.

Could always put them on a timer, or if they come in contact with a defense, self explode. Make it so they direct themselves to the enemies flag stand.
