1. First off, Ghosts don't have range upgrades. Second, hero Ghosts actually have shorter range than regular Ghosts.

2. Here are your triggers (might be a bit buggy). I'm only gonna do the one for Player 1, I'm gonna use the Pulse Rifle for this example, and Player 8 is the Xenomorph player. Hyper triggers may be needed.

PLAYERS
- Player 1
CONDITIONS
- Always.
ACTIONS
- Center location labeled 'Motion Tracker' on Pulse Rifle owned by Current Player at 'Anywhere'.
- Preserve trigger.

PLAYERS
- Player 1
CONDITIONS
- Always.
- Player 8 brings at least 1 men to 'Motion Tracker'.
ACTIONS
- Play 'MotionTracker.wav'. [Note: The file name may be different for you.]
- Wait X milliseconds. [Note: I don't know how long the wait should be.]
- Preserve trigger.

There's your Motion Tracker for you.

3. Really? Why didn't you say so before?

As for the story, I haven't seen Alien: Resurrection, so I can't comment on that. However, it's good that you're using the laptop idea.

Oh yeh, i meant the sight, i didnt know about that hero ghost thing, i guess ill swicth them around, thanks =)

With the motion tracker iw as thinkin more of like sight, mayeb somethign to do with minimap pings?

BTW: LOL, i just read ur sig, funny

I used minimap pings with my motion tracker, it's easy to set up, also you might want several locations for aliens to go on, the smaller the location the alien is on the louder the beep.

Oh yeah, I forgot to add that.

PLAYERS
- Player 1
CONDITIONS
- Always.
- Player 8 brings at least 1 men to 'Motion Tracker'.
ACTIONS
- Show minimap ping for current player at 'Motion Tracker'.
- Play 'MotionTracker.wav'. [Note: The file name may be different for you.]
- Wait X milliseconds. [Note: I don't know how long the wait should be.]
- Preserve trigger.

There's your other Motion Tracker trigger for you, High.


P.S.- Which part of the sig? The "Free Tibet" part, Hudson's "Game Over," or the quote?

That would work though it would just ping at the center of the location, it think ill modify it abit

I have just one more thing to ask you, High. How will Face Huggers work in your map?

Im still working those out, right now, they kill you. But what i had planned was the marine becomes infested, you spend 5 mins or so are a marine. Then, a chestbruster apears, and how have to find some food (there will be animal cages and morgues all over the map) Then you turn into a drone,a nd then have to kill the marines

You will be able to upgrade to btw

EDIT: forgot to mension Exosuits and ATVs will be inculded

Heres my suggestion, even though you wont do it: Whenever you have aliens spawn out of nowhere, try using overlords as transports to drop them down and create. Even though you can predict them, it would get you exited or a little bit of time to say "Oh " before they drop; plus the addition of originality.

the motion tracker will do all the "get you exited or a little bit of time to say "Oh " " So i probally wont use your idea

Thanks for the suggestion though

EDIT: Motion tracker Works!!!! YAY

Just create new aliens burrowed near creep colonys so it looks like they were imbedded in the structure, as in Aliens.

? I dont follow you Xeno

What's not to understand?

(See Attached Image)

Oh, i get you, i didnt understand what you were talking about

Sorry to double post but if anyone catches me at map night i would like some help testing the other players

Okie dokie, you do that,

This post is a part bump, but anyway

Im currently making the new weapons i dicussed above, and starting to code the special abilities (i stole the idea of diff colour dropships, diff abilties)

[SIZE=7]I looove A L I E N S. I own Alien: Quadrology. Anyway, looks good. Good job with the map so far. I'd be glad to test it.

I've read most of the books for aliens vs predators, and one aliens book...
in one of the avp books"
Alien vs Predators: War (Xeno, maybe u've read it...)
There was an expeiramental weapons suit, called the MAX
the thing can damn near kill the pilot if its used too much/too long, even if the pilot had undertook some preparations such as inserting a port for the MAX suit to connect with the central nerve system (or part of it, ie. Back of the neck).
I would immagine it would best fit the goliath.
In the book, it had a machine gun, and a flame thrower..
the flame thrower, you could somehow put in as a spec ability, the MG well is its main wep.
I dont think you have any air units for the aliens, so it might fit in pretty well.

and there is a company rivaling Weyland/Yutani which i think its called bio-lab or something along those lines...

I did scrap my avp map for the time being (the one based off the movie).
(but i am working on one in the desert tileset, it is just in the stage where im putting in all the terrain, i used about 2/3 of the map...)

The firebat could have a Gernade for its specail ability, in an army men map, the firebats spec ability is a gernade, and the gernade is a scourge that automatically flys towards an enemy, and doesnt move at all and then explodes, at the same time creating/killing a devourer.

Your map seems to be coming along pretty well fromthe screen shots etc etc.
I look forward to it.

ya i own it to, ive read that book but i didnt really like it.

tell me more bout this rival company, i just got a story idea.

Anyways, map progress, most implemneted abilities work, still tweaking osme bugs, but ill get there, ill add some screens later and maybe a demo later in the week

Looke nice. Good luck. I'll have to dl it when it's done.

Ive been busy so i havnt done much more. Im almost finished briefing and have been terraining. Attached is the map layout so far

You really should have started the map with all roof terrain, it's much easier to carve than add.

I Just have one thing to say about the swear words and damn are fine but maybe not Fu*k. Also if you dont have the hack tool you could make a minigame (like a bound cause there easy) that would be cool. Overall the game sounds awsome!

Edit: Call It the proximity alarm cause i dosen't track motion. Also for the firebat special attack make a big explosion around the firebat (like 4 bcs) and lower all units in blast radius to 50% health.

Halo: Im trying to keep close to the AVP universe so ill keep it as motion tacker, plus aliens will mostly always be moving.

As for the swares, If you saw a room full of mutilated bodies and then a swarm of aliens came at you, what would you say?
