Just in case there's any folks out there still interested in plugin dev (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I wish we had a plugin that would allow aliens to start a vote to destroy the hive on turtle games so they can redrop the hive and get the 3rd chamber. There could be an announcement to marines that the alien team has "sacrificed" their hive and are temporarily vulnerable. It would be a marine decision to either rush now and try to kill the 1 hive aliens before 2nd hive rebuilt and they got 3rd chamber or to carry on with the turtle and fight 3 chamber aliens. Maybe something as simple as the aliens have to type /sacrifice and the plugin checks that they are on the alien team and if so, accepts the vote. Then either kill the hive or turn on FF for 90 seconds. |

Did this ever come about? Because I'd be interested in writing it. I like the idea, but I think perhaps it'd be easier to just unlock the 3rd upgrade after a specified period of inactivity regarding the existing Hives. So, for example, say a game was going on and the aliens had 2 hives, while the marines controlled the third. 15 minutes go by, no hives are dropped or destroyed. (Or perhaps no hives take damage for this period? Is that too restrictive?) A message prints to the Marines to do something in the next 90 seconds like attack/kill either hive, or else Aliens will "evolve" their third upgrade. The aliens would get a message as well.

QUOTE (SirHCPot @ Oct 7 2011, 04:46 AM)  Marines to do something in the next 90 seconds like attack/kill either hive. I would inflate that timer to 2 minutes. Maybe only activate the option if the hive doesn't take at least 20% damage within 15 minutes,For balance reasons of course. It does sound like a great plugin idea for pub servers! |

If you view any member's profile you'll see "LAST SEEN:" which indicates when the member last visited this site. In Neo's case, "Last Seen: 2nd May 2011 - 06:59 AM", so I'm guessing he hasn't done it. |

I've got a similar plugin that creates a "Hive Pool" that allows aliens to donate to it to change one of their two chambers to the other chamber. I would post it if the forum allowed me to :/
