I can make new weapons BUT it would make me want to remake the PDA in zscript (so you can see what mod packs do etc), which I am trying to avoid as it would make me want to remake a lot of things in zscript, and Yholl doesn't want the whole mod being converted zscript. Plus the weapons are one of the more fun things about the mod, I would not want to rob the author the fun of making new ones.

Maybe a class specialized towards energy-based weapons? Or one focused on Demonic weapons?

Considering how rare demonic weapons tend to be, a class focused on them seems like a bad idea.

As for energy weapons, I feel a decent number already perform well with a lot of the standard classes.

Just out of curiosity, why wouldn't Yholl want the entire mod converted over to zscript? I'm sure its an insane amount of work, but other than that aren't there only benefits to doing something like that? I mean no offense and of course everyone is free to do as they wish with their work, I was just wondering what the reasoning was or if there was some benefit to not converting over to zscript.

It would be difficult if not impossible to do so without breaking existing mods, notably the monster pack but also this and DoomRPG. It'd also lock it to GZDoom where it ostensibly still runs in ZDoom. However, as you say, it'd be an insane amount of work even though a large amount could be refactored (take a look at the chaingun DECORATE and the labyrinthine if-thens for different modpack combinations and ammochain and other stuff and feel the dread if you haven't done so) and that alone is reason enough not to.

Oh man, you have no idea how I love Phased Sisters, such as fun class to play. Thank you.

So I do like this mod! Overall, there should be a combination of the Mechanoid, Nomad, Nano Maniac, Phase Sisters, and Sarge with the perks of Modular Revolution, Upgrade Sensor, Scavengers Gambit, Ammo Siphon, Shoulder Arsenal, And Stay Dead! I suppose that the combination does teleport infinitely without any of the phase devices and being very lucky. After all, I do know that we feel overpowered!

Sorry if this was asked many times but do you have any plans of adding a melee class? Also i know there exist a stamina bar but i cant find it, what is it used for aside scout jumps?

I think melee class could have interesting mechanics with stamina, like charged attacks or block. Maybe some active skills aside from passives would be cool.

I believe the new class being added to DRLA proper is melee-focused, but who know when or if that'll be. Also stamina is used for melee, kicking reduces it significantly but you'll eventually get worn out from repeated combos too. As for its location it depends on the HUD. For screenblocks 10 it's green vertical right of the mugshot, for screenblocks 11 it depends on the specific one but it's either a vertical bar along the right edge, green-red under the HP counter, and non-existent from what I can see on the one that looks a bit like Duke Nukem 3D.

Its nice and all except one issue, the Mechanoid. Every time I try to run this in GZDoom, it can't run because it didn't understand "DoomRlMechanoid" part in the zscript. Does ANYONE know how to fix this?

I'm having a very similar issue, in that an error keeps it from working. I have the mod correctly in the Mod Order, after DRLA and the Monster Pack. However, it does not load, instead giving me a long list of script warnings followed by saying that the execution couldn't continue due to an error parsing something called a DECORATE script.
I don't know if this is an error on my end. I'm using GZDoom g4.7.1 on a Windows 10 OS.

You need the latest version of GZDoom (as of today the latest version is 4.10.0).

Very cool mod, both DRLA and Extended. :)
