I do not know how I'm supposed to escape under these circumstances :-(

EDIT: WOW, that was fun.

While fending off dummies, a Turbo Digger bounced to the soldier's feet, so I promptly picked it up and started digging down and to the left, towards all the gold. When the coast was clear, I ordered my brain bot to follow me through the tunnel.

On the way to the gold, some dummies followed my units into the tunnel, so I selected the brain bot and began to open fire. Sadly, the AI is retarded and the deselected soldier also started to fire, and hit the brain bot once in the glass, thus lowering its health to 70 and causing it to slooowwwwly bleed to death.

But, I continued, and at one point I dug upward and made a small room to sit the brain bot safely in for the time being. With the turbo digger in hand, I started once again digging for my goal: gold. I was out of resources and I desperately needed them to not only protect my brain, but allow it to escape safely in a craft.

When I reached the gold and began mining, several dummies had found their way through the tunnel and under the pocket where my brain bot sat. They were dangerously close and I was running out of time. As soon as I had enough money, I ordered several nuclear air strikes on the base to clear out all remaining dummies and open a hole to the tunnel to fit a firestorm bomb into it in order to clear out the dangerously-close dummies.

The game finally stopped lagging, so I ordered an automated missile launcher to take care of new incoming enemy aircraft. The very moment I got a drone carrying a firestorm bomb into the mouth of the now-exposed tunnel, the dummies had reached my brain and were literally pixels away with their Turbo Diggers. The very frame I had ordered the bomb to detonate, I heard the dreaded *crash* sound and the big red FAIL scrolled across my screen.

I was sad to lose, but happy because that was the most epic "adventure" I had ever had in Cortex Command. I was SO close!

MOPixels drawing is where it's at :P.

This actor can take a copy a weapon and then create more weapons out of the copy.

Image

Oh, and it can work with any weapon too. Even user made ones :grin:

Gents.

(Yes, I gave credit. I also added Lua and did some bug fixing.)

(Goddammit, I used the wrong screen to add the actors. There are more.)

Trying to improve my weapon crafter by making the weapon "grow" out over time.
It's laggy and I forgot to put in the fix to prevent it from drawing the picture inverted on the Y-axis. :roll: Back to the drawing board.

OK...

I screwed something up.

For those who want it, here's the code:
Code:
function Create(self)
   self.curDist = 20;

   local i = Vector(0,0);
   i.X = math.cos(self.RotAngle) * self.curDist * -1;
   i.Y = math.sin(self.RotAngle) * self.curDist;
   local ParentID = SceneMan:CastMORay(self.Pos, i, self.ID, -1, false, 0);
   if ParentID ~= 255 then
      local j = MovableMan:GetRootMOID(ParentID);
      self.Parent = MovableMan:GetMOFromID(j);

      for i = 0, MovableMan:GetMOIDCount() do
         if MovableMan:GetRootMOID(i) == self.Parent.ID and MovableMan:GetMOFromID(i).PresetName == "Grapple Gun" then
            self.gun = MovableMan:GetMOFromID(i);
         end
      end
      if self.Parent:IsActor() then
         if ToHeldDevice(self.gun):IsActivated() and not ToHeldDevice(self.gun):IsReloading() then -- Has to do with this line
            local Smoke = CreateAEmitter("Smoke Emitter");
            Smoke.Pos = self.Pos;
            Smoke.RotAngle = ToActor(self.Parent):GetAimAngle(true);
            MovableMan:AddParticle(Smoke);
         end
      end
   end
   self.Lifetime = 1;
end
