Attacking Statues

Post by Allanius2 »

Every since I had first seen the warrior statues I keep expecting them to attack. I have no idea why this is. I think that would make an interesting addition to the modded items out there. Two sets of statues could be created: statues that only attack when the player is immediately in front of it (reverting back to statue mode when the play goes away) and one that will get off its base to attack. I unfortunately do not currently have the skills or software to create these, so I was wondering if someone else would. Good luck if you do try this.

The two statues (facing each other) in my ORRR2 room will attack. :twisted:

Though I did not have the space to add them as combat units; they simply back-stab anyone within reach.

It has nothing to do with luck. It's the same case as this: viewtopic.php?f=14&t=6304&start=50#p68944, so If you need some fighting statues for your mod, I can make them.

No, I am not working on a mod. I just thought I'd throw the idea out there.

Here is the same idea: viewtopic.php?f=18&t=5657&start=30
Here is fighting statue request (end of 2012): viewtopic.php?f=14&t=3876
and implementation (2013): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_rkcg379sA

While the Ogre statue is very nice, I was referring to these:

and even these might be nice:

I have one, but it's not finished... might be done later tonight. It still needs a pedestal, and [ideally] a 'wake-up angry' animation... not at all unlike Leki's coffin skeletons... Come to think of it... that might not be done by tonight, but soon. ;)

I saw those two, they don't attack often.
