Not sure if this is possible already, but how about a flag for a monster which makes them run the opposite way, in the same fasion as the anubis cheat? And I know it's possible with a negative speed and backwards animations but i'm sure we can be a bit more professional than that can't we?

Good idea!

anubis cheat...?

Enter "anubis" into the command console. Monsters run away from you.

That would be awesome.

That shouldn't be too hard, seeing as the general code for such a thing exists (getting monsters to run away). I don't know what would be needed to get it as a DECORATE flag, though.

I approve of this feature suggestion.

I second/third/fourth/whatever the adding of this feature. And while we're on the topic, could the Anubis thing be added as a player property as well, to be used in ACS (assuming this hasn't been done already)?

Also, can a way be implemented to create a DECORATE powerup that toggles the anubis effect? Imagine, a real "ogre armor" powerup that makes the enemies run scared while it lasts...

I like this, as if a monster was scared of you.

Shoud probably make it togglable via ACS too, so you can make powerups that makes monsters afraid of you for a limited time (or make weapons that cause monsters to run away).

I like that too.......

Monster: Haha, I have a Chaingun!
DoomGuy: Ummm, yeah....... *pulls out a BFG9000*
Monster: Ooohhhh, shit! *runs off like Doomguy when meeting a CyberDemon*

That would be some interesting scripting there...

also most of us Doomguys just go and kick a CyberDemon's arse nowadays (good old circle strafing)

Or left-right-left-BLAM x2

by **Phobus** » Tue Aug 02, 2005 12:41 pm

Yeah but that method involves good timing (needs to be developed) and remembering to stand away from walls.

Now fighting a group of cyber demons is a different matter. (Without adequete cover I find two to be nigh on impossible, so imagine how many tries it took me to beat that bit in AV where there's something like 6 of them).

Where? I remember max 3 (or 4) at the same place same time. And in Demonic Hordes you have an invul to use.
