![]() ![]() Do we really want to make contact with meat?" Unofficially, I advise that we erase the records and forget the whole thing." "Officially, we are required to contact, welcome, and log in any and all sentient races or multibeings in the quadrant, without prejudice, fear, or favor. ![]() They can even sing by squirting air through their meat." You know how when you slap or flap meat it makes a noise? They talk by flapping their meat at each other. "They do, but what do you think is on the radio? Meat sounds. "I thought you just told me they used radio." Anyone out there? Anyone home?' That sort of thing." That's the message they're sending out by radio. Then I imagine it wants to explore the universe, contact other sentients, swap ideas and information. And they've been trying to get in touch with us for almost a hundred of their years." The meat is the whole deal! Are you getting the picture?" "Yes, thinking meat! Conscious meat! Loving meat. "Thinking meat! You're asking me to believe in thinking meat!" "You're not understanding, are you? The brain does the thinking. It's just that the brain is made out of meat!" We thought of that, since they do have meat heads like the Weddilei. A meat head with an electron plasma brain inside." Do you have any idea the life span of meat?" We studied them for several of their life spans, which didn't take too long. ![]() You know, a carbon-based intelligence that goes through a meat stage." These creatures are the only sentient race in the sector and they're made out of meat." How can meat make a machine? You're asking me to believe in sentient meat." "So who made the machines? That's who we want to contact." "They use the radio waves to talk, but the signals don't come from them. What about the radio signals? The messages to the stars." We picked several from different parts of the planet, took them aboard our recon vessels, probed them all the way through. I also tried to give the saucer an actual hold opening/closing animation (like I did in my UFO mod) but the result was a really wacky rotation of the saucer, so I left it the way it was: no anmation, but smooth flight.They're Made out of Meat They're Made out of Meat Still I had to extend the existing version with some of my own code in order to make it abduct pretty much everything and also handle the fact that multiple saucers can be present on the map at the same time. Those required less work as you can already find a fully working (abducting) flying saucer in the game (from the Payday DLC). Hopefully some GoatZ particle effects helped a lot to make things look cool which is always good :) This part was the most tricky as some actions I wanted the characters to perform could not be triggered directly through code, so I had to find good enough workaround to get the intended result. The core mechanic behind that is to actually send actions to the NPC AI or the player inputs in order to trigger random (but not passive) behaviors. Invading :p So here is the main idea I had in mind for them: One propular ability attributed to aliens is brainwashing (or mind control, or howerver you want to call that) so I wanted to translate this ability into the game. Originally posted by About this mod:Here is another really interesting suggestion that came out of the request thread :) Not sure if this was suggested when the Waste of Space DLC came out, or even before, when some aliens could be seen in the GoatZ map, anyway I liked this idea a lot and I had a lot of fun making this mod ^^įirst thing first: Aliens! So if you ever played GoatZ you probably saw some of those dudes sleeping around near their crashed flying saucer, and the main idea in this mod was to make them more lively and more. After a very long play session, Alien bodies may start to be glitchy. Flying Saucers sometimes phase through terrain or buildings (alien technology. Flying Saucers may attempt to abduct unreachable items. Traveling to another map will cancel the invasion. ![]() Riding on top of Flying Saucers is pretty fun :D Vehicles are for some reasons blocking Alien brainwashing waves. The number of Flying Saucers depend on the total number of samples on the map. Samples collected by Flying Saucers cannot be retrieved. Flying Saucers are collecting samples of earth technologies and life forms. Brainwashed players will follow the Aliens orders for a short period of time. Brainwashed creatures will follow the Aliens orders for a medium period of time. Aliens will brainwash nearby creatures and players. Attack an Alien camouflaged as human to start the invasion. Ancient Aliens! Why won't you believe me? I saw them, they are camouflaged as humans, but I saw them! I will keep headbutting them until they reveal themselves, and then you will see I was right!Īny question or problem to use this mod? Click here to read the FAQ. ![]()
